Abstract: The electronic component includes an element body, an internal conductor, a cover layer, and a conductor layer. The internal conductor is disposed in the element body. The cover layer is disposed on an outer surface of the element body and has an electrical insulation property. The conductor layer is disposed on the cover layer and is electrically connected to the internal conductor. The conductor layer includes a portion. The portion protrudes toward the element body through the cover layer and is physically and electrically connected to the internal conductor. The conductor layer is electrically connected to the internal conductor.

Abstract: A snap hook includes a main body having hook and sleeve portions extending from a base, ends of the hook portion and sleeve portions being opposed to each other to define an opening of the hook portion; a pin which moves back from and towards the end of the hook portion so as to open and close the opening, the pin including an operating portion including a ridge exposed to outside through a sliding slit of the sleeve portion; and a spring for biasing the pin toward the end of the hook portion so as to achieve contact. The main body includes a restraining wall which extends from the base and between the sleeve portion and the hook portion, toward a connection where the hook portion is joined to a connection object so as to restrict the connection between the end of the hook portion and the connection object.

Abstract: A coupling structure of a lead to a pet accessory is provided. In this structure, an arc-shaped guide bar is provided in a pet accessory such as a harness, which is put on one of the periphery of the body and the periphery of the neck of a pet. The guide bar extends above the periphery of one of the body, the neck, and the border between the body and the neck of the pet. A ring to which a hook at an end of a lead is coupled is slidably attached to the guide bar. Thus, when the lead is horizontally pulled, it is possible to reduce rotation moment functioning so as to try to topple the pet sideways, or reduce force functioning so as to rotate the pet accessory, and hence it is possible to provide the pet accessory tender to the pet.

Abstract: A pair of branch leash members bifurcated at distal end of a main leash member are adjacently passed through a hollow cylindrical adjuster which can be slidably moved along the branch leash members and placed anywhere thereon, where the adjuster prevents the branch leash members from being pulled apart over the placed position by having an inclined end facet, so that the length of the branch leash members can be variably adjusted, permitting selective use of the leash member.

Abstract: Slip prohibiting engaging portions provided in a female member and a male member elastically fit with each other in the crossing direction relative to a sliding and fitting direction when the female member and the male member are slid and fitted with each other to give a predetermined resistance when the female member and male member are pulled out.
