Abstract: In a vehicle door mirror device, an outer peripheral face of an insertion cylinder of a visor body substantially fits together with an inner peripheral face of a fitting cylinder of reinforcement, and a housing space is formed between the visor body and the reinforcement. A water drainage groove is provided on the outer peripheral face of the insertion cylinder. Water infiltrating between the insertion cylinder and the fitting cylinder accordingly flows into the water drainage groove, flows down the water drainage groove, and flows downward from a lower end of the water drainage groove. This enables water to be suppressed from infiltrating into the housing space.

Abstract: A device includes a memory configured to store a program; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute a process based on the program. The process includes: for input data made of a combination of pieces of unit data and including a plurality of consecutive records each including data of a plurality of items, when a sequence of type information indicating a kind of each piece of the unit data in the input data is divided into partial sequences each having a certain length, analyzing a break position of the records in the input data by determining, as a length of each of the records, the length of each of the partial sequences when sequences of type information in all the partial sequences correspond to each other.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel bacterial cell composition which comprises cells of Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens having the ability to produce butyric acid, a cultured material thereof or an extract thereof, and a method for inhibiting carcinogenesis, a method for immunostimulating, a method for preventing or treating a pathogen, a method for preventing or treating an inflammatory bowel disease and a method for preventing or treating an allergic disease, which use the same.

Abstract: There is provided a method of removing binding material from a shaped preform (green body) in the preparation procedure for the manufacture of ceramics from particulate materials by a new method comprising exposing the green body to a liquidified fluid to dissolve the binder materials in a liquidified fluid without deformation of the shape of the article. In the method, the binder materials can be removed without swelling of the article because the green body is not exposed to a rapid temperature increase and the binder does not volatilize in the body. Further the binder material can be removed in a shorter period of time from the entire body.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of removing binder materials from a shaped preform (green body) in the preparation procedure for the manufacture of ceramics from particulate materials. The new method comprises exposing the green body to a supercritical fluid to dissolve the binder materials in the supercritical fluid without deforming the shape of the article. In the method, the binder materials can be removed without swelling of the article because the green body is not exposed to a rapid temperature increase and the binder does not volatilize in the body. In addition, the binder material can be removed in a drastically shorter period of time from the entire body.
