Abstract: An article detection device includes: an image acquiring unit acquiring a surroundings image; a first information image preparing unit preparing a first information image by converting information on a load/unloading target portion of the article to an easily recognizable state based on the surroundings image; a first calculation unit calculating at least one of a position and a posture of the load/unloading target portion; a second information image preparing unit preparing a second information image by converting information on a pitch angle detection portion of the article to an easily recognizable state; and a second calculation unit configured extracting at least two edge candidates for the article extending in a specific direction and included in the second information image based on a calculation result from the first calculation unit and calculating a three-dimensional direction vector indicating a pitch angle of the article from the edge candidates.

Abstract: Provided is a thin film capacitor comprising a capacitance portion in which at least one dielectric layer is sandwiched between a pair of electrode layers included in a plurality of electrode layers, wherein the capacitance portion has an opening which extends in a lamination direction in which the plurality of electrode layers and the dielectric layer are laminated and through which one electrode layer of the plurality of electrode layers is exposed, the one electrode layer has an exposed portion exposed at a bottom surface of the opening, the exposed portion is in contact with a wiring layer connecting the one electrode layer and an electrode terminal, and a thickness of the exposed portion of the one electrode layer is smaller than a thickness of other portions of the one electrode layer and is 50% or more of the thickness of the other portions of the one electrode layer.

Abstract: An intraocular lens 1 includes a lens 2 and a haptic 3 connected to the lens 2. The lens 2 is disposed behind an iris 7 in an eye of a patient. The haptic 3 has a main body 3a and first and second projections 3d and 3e. The main body 3a extends from the lens 2 outward in a radial direction about a visual axis C of the patient. The first and second projections 3d and 3e are located so as to project from the main body 3a toward spaces between a plurality of ciliary zonules 10 connecting a crystalline lens 11 and a ciliary body 8 in the eye. Accordingly, an intraocular lens and a haptic for an intraocular lens that are able to inhibit the position of a lens from being displaced are provided.

Abstract: A hook portion 4 is provided which is formed so as to extend from base portions 21a of the ciliary processes 21 along the outer surfaces of the ciliary processes 21 via anterior end portions 21b of the ciliary processes 21 to base portions 21c at the opposite side. A leg portion 3 extending from the hook portion 4 toward the visual axis C is connected to the hook portion 4, and a lens 2 to be mounted in the eye of the patient is supported by the leg portion 3. The lens 2 is held in the eye of the patient in a state where the hook portion 4 is hooked or fitted to the ciliary processes 21.

Abstract: A skin material (1) includes a cellular heat-insulating layer (3) and a coloring layer (4) which are sequentially stacked on a fibrous substrate (2) and has protrusions and recesses on a front face (6). The cellular heat-insulating layer (3) has a softening temperature of 110 to 250° C. A contact cool feeling (Qmax) of the front face (6) of the skin material (1) is 0.30 W/cm2 or less both before and after a heat treatment for 2400 hours at 70° C.

Abstract: Provided are an intraocular implant, an intraocular implant set, and an intraocular lens in which the intraocular lens is easily replaced compared to the related art. A support structure is a portion which is used to dispose an intraocular lens (a lens) (in a rear section) inside an eye and is formed separately from the lens. When the lens is attached to the support structure, a configuration is formed which is the same as that of the existing intraocular lens including a lens serving as an eye lens extracted due to the cataract or the like and a portion supporting the lens into an eye. The support structure and the lens may be integrated with each other inside the eye. An embodiment in which only the lens is replaced while the support structure is fixed into the eye and which is not present in the related art can be realized.

Abstract: An aqueous sericin solution and a polar organic solvent are mixed together to prepare a sericin-containing solution, then the sericin-containing solution is added into a synthetic resin solution, followed by drying, to produce an synthetic leather wherein sericin is present as discrete particles of not larger than 3 ?m in diameter within the synthetic resin of a skin layer almost uniformly at least 1.0×106 particles per square centimeter. The skin layer of the synthetic leather has a soft and moist touch like that of the natural leather and is superior in moisture absorbing and releasing properties and further superior in processing stability.
