Abstract: A tubular filter suitable for capturing and removing, in a continuous production line, solid content and oil content in a large volume of liquid (particularly a beverage liquid). A tubular liquid-treating filter formed by winding a nonwoven fabric layer together with a reinforcing net sheet, wherein the reinforcing net sheet has a mesh size in the range from 6 to 35 mesh and includes a portion having a thickness in the range from 0.3 to 2.0 mm.

Abstract: To improve particle capturing performance and classification filtering capacity of a cylindrical filter. A cylindrical filter includes a hollow cylindrical filter body configured by suitably combining a plurality of cylindrical first filter sections having mutually different inner diameters, each first filter section including a glass fiber as a major component, and a plurality of cylindrical second filter sections having mutually different inner diameters, each second filter section including a resin fiber as a major component, with each other. The first filter sections and the second filter sections are disposed in a concentrically superimposed manner and alternately arranged in a radial direction relative to each other. The cylindrical filter further includes a pair of seal members fixedly provided on the opposite axial ends of the first and second filter sections.

Abstract: A vehicle television receiver system comprises a television receiver be easily attached to and detached from the vehicle, engagement means attached to the vehicle and arranged to be actuated to make the television receiver be in an engaged condition when the television receiver is housed in a specific place of the vehicle and release means for making the engagement means and the television receiver be in a released condition when the release means is operated.

Abstract: Apparatus for heating and cooling a steering wheel includes a skin layer coupled to the outside surface of the steering wheel, a heat conductive plate coupled to an inside surface of the skin layer, a thermal storage core extending along a central portion of the steering wheel, and at least one thermoelectric transducer thermally coupled between the heat conductive plate and the thermal storage core. The thermoelectric transducer either generates heat or absorbs heat in accordance with the direction of a current flowing through the transducer. When the steering wheel is hot, current is caused to flow through the transducer in a first direction so that the transducer absorbs heat. The transducer absorbs the heat from the heat conductive plate and passes it to the thermal storage core. In turn, the heat conductive plate absorbs the heat on the skin layer of the steering wheel, thus cooling the steering wheel.
