Abstract: A motor includes a shaft, a bearing arranged to support the shaft such that the shaft is rotatable about a central axis, a rotating body fixed to the shaft and including a rotor magnet arranged in an outer circumference thereof, a stator arranged radially outward of the rotor magnet, a circuit board arranged to be perpendicular to the central axis on one axial side of the rotating body, and an encoder arranged to detect rotation of the rotating body. The encoder includes a reflection pattern arranged on a surface of the rotating body which is opposed to the circuit board, and a reflective rotation detection sensor arranged on the circuit board to detect the rotation of the rotating body by irradiating the reflection pattern with light.

Abstract: There is provided a gas generating composition having good combustion performance. The gas generating composition comprises a fuel, an oxidizing agent and a binder, wherein the binder is at least one selected from polylactone compounds. Poly-?-caprolactone is preferable as the polylactone compound, and the weight average molecular weight thereof is preferably in the range of 100 to 100,000.

Abstract: An alicyclic unsaturated alcohol (for example, tetrahydrobenzyl alcohol) having the purity of 99% by weight or more, the water content of 0.1% by weight or less and the acid value of 0.1 mg KOH/g or less can be produced, with high selectivity, by hydrogenating using an unsaturated cyclic aldehyde having the acid value of 10 mg KOH/g or less as a raw material; terminating the hydrogenation in the conversion of 70 to 99.8%; and rectifying the reaction product containing the unreacted unsaturated cyclic aldehyde. The high purity alicyclic unsaturated alcohol is useful as raw material chemicals for synthesizing drugs, agricultural chemicals, perfumes, and dyes etc.

Abstract: In the present invention, the No. I invention relates to a regenerated PET resin composition which comprises formulating 0.5-100 part by weight of a lactone polymer (B) with 100 parts by weight of a regenerated PET resin (A), in which there is improved a molding processability such as an injection moldability and extruding molding, and relates to a molded article therefrom and, the No. II invention relates to a flame retardant resin composition containing a thermoplastic resin (E) and a flame retardant (F), in which bleeding of the flame retardant is suppressed without a decline of a flame retardancy, and relates to a molded article therefrom.

Abstract: Novel polyester compounds having a benzotriazole group of the invention are obtained by a ring-opening addition-polymerisation of lactones with the alcoholic hydroxyl group of 3-(5-chloro-2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-5-(1,1-dimethyl-ethyl)-4-hydroxy-benzene -propanol, 3-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxy-benzene-ethanol, 3-(5-methyl-2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-5-(1-methyl-ethyl)-4-hydroxy-benzene-pro panolbis[3-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxy-benzene-ethanol]methane or the like. These compounds are used as ultraviolet-rays absorbents for thermoplastic resins. The resulting resin composition has an excellent light resistance and chemical resistance.

Abstract: A waterproof mechanism for cartridge holder 4 that moves between a housed position inside the camera body and a cartridge reception/removal position at which the cartridge insertion opening is exposed outside the camera body, wherein elastic sealing member 5, which comprises flat part 51 that is sandwiched between cartridge holder 4 and holder cover 6 when the latter is attached to the former and seal area 55 that is located along the edges of said flat part 51 and extends next to and all around the edges of the holder cover and that creates a watertight seal between the camera body and holder cover 6 when the cartridge holder is in the housed position, the flat part 51 and seal area 55 being integrally formed as one unit, is placed such that said elastic sealing member 5 will be sandwiched between cartridge holder 4 and holder cover 6 when the latter is attached to the former.

Abstract: A binocular comprising a housing and a pair of first and second optical systems positioned on each side of a central line. Each optical system includes an object lens and ocular lens arranged at a front part and at a rear part of the housing respectively. Further, a light admitting window is placed on the central line between the first and second optical systems for admitting light from an object. A detection module, provided independently of the first and second optical systems is used to output electrical signals which represent the distance to the object. The detection module may include an optical path deflecting means for z-shapely deflecting the light from the light admitting window and for directing the light to a sensor. The binocular is compact and has a hand grip that is designed in order to be holdable and focusable by the use of a single hand.
