Abstract: In a compressor, a link mechanism, which allows change of the inclination angle of the swash plate, is arranged between the drive shaft and the swash plate. An actuator is arranged in a swash plate chamber, while being rotational integrally with a drive shaft. The actuator includes a rotation body, a movable body, and a control pressure chamber. The swash plate has a fulcrum, which is coupled to the link mechanism, and a point of application, which is coupled to the movable body. The drive shaft is located between the fulcrum and the point of application.

Abstract: In a compressor according to the present invention, an actuator is arranged in a swash plate chamber in a manner rotatable integrally with a drive shaft. The actuator includes a rotation body, a movable body, and a control pressure chamber. A control mechanism includes a bleed passage, a supply passage, and a control valve. The control mechanism is capable of changing the pressure in the control pressure chamber to move the movable body. When the pressure in the control pressure chamber exceeds the pressure in the swash plate chamber, the inclination angle of the swash plate with respect to the rotation axis of the drive shaft increases.

Abstract: A compressor includes an actuator. The actuator is arranged in a swash plate chamber, while being rotational integrally with a drive shaft. With reference to the swash plate, the actuator is located in a region in which a first cylinder bore is located. The actuator includes a rotation body fixed to the drive shaft, a movable body, and a control pressure chamber. A link mechanism is located between the drive shaft and the swash plate. As the inclination angle of the swash plate is changed, the link mechanism moves the top dead center position of a first head by a greater amount than the top dead center position of a second head.

Abstract: A compressor includes an actuator. The actuator is arranged in a swash plate chamber, while being rotational integrally with a drive shaft. The actuator includes a rotation body, a movable body, and a control pressure chamber. A control mechanism is provided that changes the pressure in the control pressure chamber to move the movable body. The movable body is arranged such that, when the pressure in the control pressure chamber is raised, the movable body pulls the swash plate to increase the inclination angle of the swash plate.

The movable body opposes the lug arm with a swash plate arranged between the movable body and the lug arm.

Abstract: An isoprene-based polymer cyclized product obtained by cyclization of an isoprene-based polymer containing structural units expressed by the general formula (1) and having a ratio of content of the structural units to all repeating structural units of 60 mol % or more; an alicyclic polymer obtained by hydrogenation of 50% or more of the carbon-carbon double bonds of the isoprene-based polymer; and an optical resin comprising the isoprene-based polymer cyclized product and alicyclic polymer. (in the general formula (1), R1 indicates a C1 to C10 alkyl group).

Abstract: A process for producing a cycloolefin addition polymer comprising addition-polymerizing a cycloolefin in the presence of a catalyst comprising a combination of a specific transition metal compound of Group 4 of the Periodic Table, with an organoaluminum oxy compound, and/or a compound capable of reacting with the Group 4 transition metal compound to form an ion pair. The specific group 4 transition metal compound preferably has a structure such that the group 4 transition metal is bonded to a cyclopentadienyl ring in an ?1 mode. The above-mentioned catalyst exhibits high activity for both of addition homopolymerization of a cycloolefin and addition copolymerization of a cycloolefin with an ?-olefin.

Abstract: A norbornene addition copolymer obtained by subjecting a norbornene monomer (A), an aromatic vinyl compound (B), and an ?-olefin having 2 to 20 cabon atoms (C) to addition copolymerization, the sum of the content of repeating units derived from the norbornene monomer (A) and the content of repeating units derived from the aromatic vinyl compound (B) being 25 to 90 mol % based on the total repeating units, and the content of repeating units derived from the aromatic vinyl compound (B) being 0.55 to 10 (mol) times the content of repeating units derived from the norbornene monomer (A); and a molded article obtained by molding the norbornene addition copolymer. According to the present invention, a norbornene addition copolymer exhibiting excellent transparency, a high refractive index, and a small intrinsic birefringence value, and a molded article obtained by molding the norbornene addition copolymer are provided.

Abstract: A dehumidifying method which comprises contacting a gas containing water vapor to one side of a vapor permselective membrane, while contacting a dry gas to the other side of the membrane, to let the water vapor selectively permeate through the membrane, wherein the membrane is made of an ion exchange membrane having ion exchange groups, of which counter ions are partly or entirely substituted by metal ions.
