Abstract: A vehicle fuel tank structure capable of suppressing transmission of a vibration of a fuel pump to a vehicle body without depending on a rubber mount includes a fuel tank provided below floor panels; a fuel pump which is provided inside the fuel tank and which is fixed by being pressed against a tank bottom surface of the fuel tank; and a reinforcement member fixed to a vehicle-exterior side of the tank bottom surface against which the fuel pump is pressed, in which the reinforcement member includes a first fixation portion which is fixed to the fuel tank at a position overlapping with a section against which the fuel pump is pressed in a plan view; and second fixation portions which are fixed to the fuel tank at positions not overlapping with the section against which the fuel pump is pressed in a plan view.

Abstract: In a movable bed composed by combining a bed main portion and a wheelchair, the wheelchair has chair back bottom rails having cutout portions in a chair back bottom, and a chair back guide portion installed rotatably about a rotation point with respect to a chair base portion, the chair back guide portion having sliding portions engaged with the chair back bottom rails so as to be slidable and arranged to be disengageable from the chair back bottom rails by being located in the cutout portions, and in a fourth state (flat posture), the sliding portions are located in the cutout portions, the chair back guide portion and the chair back bottom are disengaged so as to be separable from each other, and a back lifting posture of the bed main portion and the chair back bottom can be performed over the entire width of the bed, whereas in a first state (chair posture), the sliding portions are engaged with the chair back bottom rails and can slide along the chair back bottom rails.

Abstract: First, a first belt ply is wound around an outer peripheral surface of a belt drum having a curvature so as to be formed as a tubular shape, and a rubber layer protruding to an outer side than an end portion in a width direction of a belt reinforcing layer is arranged in an outer periphery of an end portion in a width direction of the first belt ply. Further, a second belt ply which is narrower than the first belt ply is wound around an outer periphery of the second belt ply so as to be formed as a tubular shape, and a belt layer is formed in such a manner that the first belt ply and the second belt ply are laminated. The belt reinforcing layer is formed by spirally winding a rubber-coated reinforcing cord around an outer peripheral side of the formed belt layer, and an end portion in a width direction of the belt reinforcing layer is arranged in an outer side than the first belt ply.

Abstract: W is the width of the belt layer 5a in the innermost side in the tire radius direction. A is the region of the belt reinforcing layer 11 which is the region at the both sides of the tire equator plane 30 in the tire width direction. B is the region in the outer side of the region A in the tire width direction. C is the region that is further outer side of the region B. Ma, Mb and Mc are tensile modulus per inch of the region A, B and C respectively. The width Wa of the region A is 2 to 10% of W, the width Wb of the region B is 15 to 40% of W, Mc is 350 to 2000N, Ma is 100 to 400% of Mc, Mb is 200 to 800% of Mc, and Mb is larger than Ma.

Abstract: At least some of the isocyanate groups in the cured polyurethane sealant of this invention have the isocyanurate structure. A moisture-curing sealant composition of the invention comprises an active isocyanato-terminated isocyanate prepolymer containing a polyol component with a molecular weight of 2,000 to 20,000 and an isocyanurating agent. The sealant composition of the present invention is particularly excellent in initial bond strength due to sharp viscosity buildup.

Abstract: A moisture-curing hot-melt adhesive comprises (A) a urethane prepolymer comprising hard and soft segment moieties and having an isocyanate group at the terminus which is prepared by reacting stepwise a polyol having a molecular weight of 1,000 to 8,000 and a thermoplastic saturated polyester polyol having a molecular weight of 1,000 to 6,000, a melting point of 50.degree. C. or higher and a glass transition temperature of 10.degree. C. or higher with an diisocyanate compound in a overall NCO/OH ratio of 1.6 to 3.0, and (B) a urethane prepolymer comprising a soft segment moiety and having an isocyanate group at the terminus which is prepared by reacting a polyol having a molecular weight of not more than 8,000 with a diisocyanate compound in an NCO/OH ratio of 1.6 to 3.0, said component (A) and component (B) being mixed in a ratio of 10:90 to 90:10 by weight.

Abstract: Temperature data of each picture element output from a infrared camera looking at a scene to be watched is compared with the same data of a previous frame. Temperature data which has changed from the previous frame is input to a histogram operator having a region defined by the temperature change and quantity of the picture elements. When the quantity of picture elements in the defined region exceeds a threshold level, it is recognized that a certain object having considerable temperature change and size has been detected. Thus, a signal is output to trigger an alarm system, or to sustain circulating frame memories which have recorded the previous scenes so that the scenes of visible light as well as the temperatue patterns for frames before, on, and after the trigger signal can be reproduced as visual images of a display screen.

Abstract: A polyurethane adhesive comprising(a) a specific block polyurethane polyol produced by reacting a hydrogenated polybutadiene glycol, a polyol having two or more hydroxy groups, and a polyisocyanate,(b) a thermoplastic polyester urethane rubber, and(c) a polyisocyanate compound as a crosslinking agent,said polyurethane adhesive being useful for adhesion of low polar materials, particularly adhesion between polypropylene materials and sheets of polyvinyl chloride.
