Abstract: Refrigerator door (25) includes outer packaging material (55) including a resin sheet, and a core material and gas adsorption each contained in outer packaging material (55). The gas adsorption device includes a vacuum sealed container containing a gas adsorbing substance that adsorbs various gases, an opening pin that opens the vacuum sealed container by a physical load from an outside, and a load-bearing spacer that suppresses displacement of the opening pin to less than or equal to a predetermined amount.

Abstract: A vacuum heat insulation material includes outer covering material which has a gas barrier property and a core material that is provided in an inside of outer covering material, the inside of the outer covering material being vacuum sealed, in which a sealed portion that is configured by sealing the peripheral edge of outer covering material, fin that is formed on the peripheral edge of outer covering material, and compressed portion which is formed by a protrusion being compressed, the protrusion is generated when the peripheral edge of outer covering material is folded back toward the core material are provided. Thereby, it is possible to provide a vacuum heat insulation material that is able to suppress reduction of a heat insulation property when a plurality of sheets are disposed lined up.

Abstract: The present invention provides a refrigerator with improved refrigerator box strength and high heat insulating performance, which is configured such that external deformation due to entry of air into a vacuum heat insulating material, the entry of air being caused by aging degradation, is prevented. The present invention includes: a heat-insulated box including an inner casing and an outer casing, in which space between the inner casing and the outer casing is filled with a foamed heat insulating material; and a vacuum heat insulating material disposed in at least a side wall of the heat-insulated box together with the foamed heat insulating material, the vacuum heat insulating material including an outer skin material, the outer skin material including at least a core material and being decompression-sealed. The vacuum heat insulating material includes a gas adsorbent.

Abstract: A vacuum insulation material includes: a core member having a large number of minute spaces; a cover member having an internal space in which the core member is housed, the internal pressure being decompression-sealed; and an inspection member provided between the core member and the cover member. The inspection member includes a retaining portion disposed on the core member and a hole formed in the retaining portion.

Abstract: A character input device displays character input information on a display screen with a small area and allows a user to input a desired character by a simple operation even when it is necessary to select the desired character from plural characters to input the desired characters. In a character selection area, a circle is added to a character “NA” and characters in the “NA” series are selected. A ? mark is added to an upper part of the circle added to the character of “NA” and a ? mark is added to a lower part of the circle. By pressing one of an upward and a downward directions of a cross key, the characters can be selected. If the upward direction of the cross key is pressed, the character “NI” is selected and displayed, instead of the character “NA”.

Abstract: A heat-insulating box (1) according to the present invention includes: an outer casing (2); an inner casing (3) accommodated in the outer casing, such that heat insulating space is formed between the inner casing and an inner surface of the outer casing; a plurality of vacuum insulation panels (10) arranged in the heat insulating space; and a foam insulating material (4) which fills space in the heat insulating space other than the plurality of vacuum insulation panels. Each of the plurality of vacuum insulation panels includes at least a core material and a moisture adsorbent, and the core material and the moisture adsorbent are decompression-sealed in space covered by an outer skin material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a character input device that can display character input information on a display screen with a small area and allows a user to input a desired character by a simple operation even in a case where it is necessary to select the desired character from plural characters to input the desired characters. In a character selection area shown FIG. 6A, at the upper side of a cross of a cross-shaped figure, a circle is added to a character of “NA” and characters of “NA” series are selected. A ? mark is added to an upper part of the circle added to the character of “NA” and a ? mark is added to a lower part of the circle. By pressing any one of an upward direction and a downward direction of a cross key, the characters can be selected. If the upward direction of the cross key is pressed, the character of “NI” is selected. In this case, the character of “NI” is displayed, instead of the character of “NA” as shown FIG. 6B.

Abstract: A vacuum thermal insulating material of the present invention and a thermally insulating case using the vacuum thermal insulating material are used as thermal insulation in, for example, refrigerators and freezers. The vacuum thermal insulating material has a core material including two or more different powders and an adsorbent. The vacuum thermal insulating material of the present invention has excellent performance of thermal insulation and is light in weight and manufactured at a low cost. The thermally insulating case of the present invention enables the performance of thermal insulation to be practically maintained over a long time period.

Abstract: A vacuum heat insulation panel for refrigerators and freezers comprises a thin-box shaped enclosure (4) for controlling permeation of the open air, and therein a core member (2) with thermal insulating properties and a barium-lithium alloy getter (3) which has long life time as getter.
