  • Patent number: 7684041
    Abstract: A color inspection system capable of making a determination on pass or failure with accuracy equivalent to that for the case of a visual inspection even in the case of inspecting various textile products as measurement targets, such as raised cloth, cloth with printed patterns such as a marbled pattern, moire pattern and detailed pattern is provided. With the color inspection system, an illuminant is set to shine a light on the surface of a textile product placed on the top surface of a measuring platform to thereby make measurements from a direction at an angle of 45 degrees from the surface of a measuring region of the textile product by use of a spectroradiometer of a measuring unit. The spectroradiometer is provided with a wide range lens attached thereto to thereby expand a measuring region. The results of measurement by the spectroradiometer are inputted to an information processor of a determination unit.

  • Patent number: 4663224
    Abstract: A composite board having an excellent vibration-suppressing sound-shielding performance can be obtained by joining a plurality of board materials with each other by the intermediary of a tacky adhesive. This tacky adhesive contains, as its principal components, one or more kinds of polymers selected from the group consisting of natural rubber, synthetic rubbers, various resins (acrylic resin, silicone resin, etc.). A sheet-like base material such as a paper sheet can be used in association with the tacky adhesive layer in the composite board, and such type of composite boards have an excellent vibration-suppressing sound-shielding performance as compared to the composite boards in which the tacky adhesive layer is not associated with a sheet-like material.
