  • Patent number: 12264420
    Abstract: Provided is a thermal molding method for producing a thermally molded article having excellent abrasion resistance at its melt-fused part. Polyamide 6 and a copolyester are prepared separately. The copolyester contains terephthalic acid, ethylene glycol, and 1,4-butanediol as copolymerization units. The copolyester may further contain ?-caprolactone and/or diethylene glycol as a copolymerization unit. A multifilament yarn in which core-sheath type composite filaments each containing a core component and a sheath component at a ratio of 1 to 4:1 by mass are bundled is produced by a composite melt-spinning method using the polyamide 6 as the core component and the copolyester as the sheath component. Using the multifilament yarn, a product of filaments is produced by weaving, knitting, knitting and braiding, or braiding.

  • Patent number: 11992765
    Abstract: A computer system detects occurrence of an action exchange in which one of a player character and an opponent character performs a first action and another one of the player character and the opponent character performs a second action to mutually exchange the actions. Based on a first stiff time related to the first action, a second stiff time related to the second action, and a time difference between the first stiff time and the second stiff time, when a stiff time (hereinafter referred to as an “own stiff time”) related to an action performed by the player character is shorter than a stiff time related to an action performed by the opponent character, the computer system presents a player controlling the player character with a recommended candidate action recommended to be performed after an end of the own stiff time.
