Abstract: A stack-equipped far infrared space heater capable of permitting a space of a relatively large volume through which hot air for fan forced space heating fails to carry well to be satisfactorily heated by far infrared rays. The space heater includes a combustion cylinder mounted on a burner arranged in a housing, a plurality of heat-exchange pipes arranged on the combustion cylinder, and a cylindrical exhaust structure arranged on the heat-exchange pipes. A guard is arranged on the housing so as to surround the combustion cylinder and cylindrical exhaust structure and mounted thereon with a top plate, which is formed at a central portion thereof with an opening. An upper wall of the cylindrical exhaust structure is fitted in the opening and securely fixed to the top plate through fixtures. A stack is connected to a side wall of the cylindrical exhaust structure so as to upwardly extend therefrom through a bent cylinder.

Abstract: An equipment control panel (1) is provided which is capable of preventing malfunction of a control unit (11) arranged in a casing (5) of an equipment or a failure in operation thereof due to discharge of static electricity. An insulating spacer (33) including a conductive shield layer (35) is arranged on a flexible circuit board (15) formed on a main section (15B) thereof with a circuit pattern including contact sections. An insulating cover sheet member (45) is laminated on the insulating spacer (33). The conductive shield layer (35) is arranged so as to be substantially opposite to a circuit pattern (21). The conductive shield layer (35) is so formed that an outer peripheral edge thereof is positioned inside an outer peripheral edge of each of a main section (33B) of the insulating spacer (33) and the insulating cover sheet member (45).

Abstract: An equipment operation panel capable of being readily mounted on an outer surface of an equipment and facilitating connection thereof to a control unit in the equipment. A first flexible circuit board is formed on a front surface thereof with contacts of switches and a contact of a variable resistor and provided thereon with light emitting diodes. The first flexible circuit board includes a lead-out section from which a connection wire pattern is led out. A spacer layer is laminated on the circuit board. A second flexible circuit board is laminated on the spacer layer and provided thereon with contacts of switches and a movable-side electrode of the variable resistor. A cover sheet member is laminated on the second flexible circuit board. Thus, the equipment operation panel is constructed into a laminate structure and mounted on an outer surface of a casing of the equipment through an adhesive layer.
