Abstract: A feature image detecting method of detecting a feature image and presenting a detection result, including: storing a correction case example with respect to the feature image in a database; detecting whether or not the feature image is contained in an inputted video to be examined; if the feature image is contained, retrieving the database by using a reason of the feature of the detected feature image as a key, and obtaining a correction case example; applying the correction case example to a feature portion of the image and creating a correction proposal, and outputting the reason of the feature, the feature portion, and the correction proposal of the detected feature image for the purpose of correction of the feature image.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to detect an image correction method from corrected images, in order to grasp a correction method of a correctly corrected images as a guideline for correction of a harmful image, and to present an image correction proposal to which a correction method in the past is applied, in order to indicate to a corrector a guideline for correction of the harmful image. In order to achieve the above-described objective, the present invention employs the following configuration. With respect to a harmful image data before correction and an image data after correction, a scene feature quantity representing the feature quantity of a scene for each scene of a video is calculated, and by comparing chronological lists of the respective scene feature quantities of the videos, a correction method for the scene configuration is detected.

Abstract: The present invention is useful for achieving a reduction in weight and for attaining increased strength in not only electronic devices and domestic electric devices but also various parts and structures. As a pretreatment, a rib (3) is dipped in an aqueous solution of ammonia, hydrazine, a hydrazine derivative, or a water-soluble amine compound. A metal frame (2) is inserted into an injection mold for forming ribs (3) by injection molding. A thermoplastic resin composition is injected to the surface of the metal frame (2) by injection molding to form ribs (3). In the housing of a casing cover (1) thus formed, the metal frame (2) and the ribs (3) made of the thermoplastic resin composition are integrally bonded together. Thus, the housing improves strength and external appearance. Moreover, a complicated configuration and structure can be formed in the housing.

Abstract: A pierceable stopper enhanced in elasticity so that the liquid in a container will not leak even after a hollow needle inserted into the container through the pierceable stopper has been removed therefrom and a method of producing the pierceable stopper are provided. A pierceable part (11) through which a hollow needle is inserted into a container (2) is molded from a thermoplastic synthetic resin elastic material. The pierceable part is heat-treated with heated air at a temperature of from 80 to 120° C. to remove the internal stress. The heat-treated pierceable part (11) is inserted into an injection mold (20, 21). A molten thermoplastic synthetic resin is injected into a cavity (26) corresponding to a stopper body (10), which is defined by the injection mold (20, 21) and the pierceable part (11), to form a pierceable stopper (5).

Abstract: A pierceable stopper for a liquid container, which has a pierceable part made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin elastic material. The pierceable part is formed so as to prevent leakage of liquid from the container when it is pierced with a hollow needle. The pierceable part is confined in a compressed state in the stopper body of the pierceable stopper. A molten thermoplastic synthetic resin elastic material is injected into an injection mold at an injection pressure higher than the normal injection pressure to mold the pierceable part.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a heat transfer changeover switch capable of effecting or cutting off positively heat transfer. The switch requires no contact or separation of a solid contact of a switch piece, is easily incorporated in a fine electronic device and generates no heat or vibration during a switch operation. The switch includes a heat pipe having a pipe for storing a heating medium therein disposed between a hot heat source and a cold heat source. A heating medium supplying/discharging device is provided for supplying/discharging the heating medium to and from the pipe. Heat transfer between the hot heat source and the cold heat source via the heat pipe is effected or cut off by using the heating medium supplying/discharging device that changes over between supply and discharge of the heating medium to and from the pipe.

Abstract: Exterior body part for an automotive vehicle, such as bumpers and facers, are described, which are made of a thermoplastic resin composition comprising: 100 parts of a block copolymer represented by the formula: A(B-A).sub.n (wherein the symbols are the same as defined before), 40 to 300 parts by weight of a propylene/.alpha.-olefin block copolymer resin, 0 to 50 parts by weight of a softening agent for nonaromatic rubber, and 0 to 200 parts by weight of an ethylene/.alpha.-olefin copolymer rubber. This thermoplastic resin composition has excellent flexibility, heat distortion resistance, mechanical strength, and scratch resistance, and furthermore, exhibits good workability.

Abstract: The thermosiphon is improved by providing the condenser section on the outer wall thereof with a heat storage section and further providing the condenser section in the lower portion thereof and adjacently to the heat storage section with a fluid reservoir for receiving the working fluid which has been condensed in the condenser section. In this thermosiphon, the working fluid which has been vaporized by the absorbed heat is condensed on the inner wall of the condenser section with liberation of part of its heat to the exterior of the thermosiphon. The remainder of the heat is accumulated in the heat storage section.

Abstract: A linear ethylene-propylene random rubbery copolymer composed of 78 to 85 mole% of an ethylene unit and 15 to 22 mole% of a propylene unit and having a Mooney viscosity (ML.sub.1+4, 100.degree. C) of 30 to 50 and a molecular weight distribution corresponding to a Q value of 3.5 to 5.5. The rubbery copolymer may further contain a nonconjugated diene unit in an amount of 4 mole% or less based on the total amount of the ethylene, propylene and nonconjugated diene units. The ethylene-propylene copolymer or ethylene-propylene-nonconjugated diene copolymer affords a cable coating material having improved processability, and when blended with polyethylene or polypropylene, gives a blend having good flowability.
