Abstract: Disclosed is a speaker unit which includes a provisionally fastening mechanism provided on a side surface of a cabinet section for provisionally fastening the speaker unit to a mounting part with at least a portion of the cabinet section inserted in an opening section of the mounting part from a face side of the mounting part. The provisionally fastening mechanism includes an engagement section for provisionally fastening the speaker unit to the mounting part, and a retention section for retaining the engagement section. The engagement section is movable between an engagement position in which the engagement section engages with the mounting part and a cancellation position in which the engagement section cancels the engagement with the mounting part by being moved away from the mounting part, and the retention section retains the engagement section in the cancellation position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a speaker unit which includes a speaker surface provided in a bottom surface of a cabinet section and a provisionally fastening mechanism provided on a side surface of the cabinet section. The provisionally fastening mechanism includes: an engagement section for provisionally fastening the speaker unit to the mounting part; an operating section exposed on a face side of a mounting part with the speaker unit provisionally fastened via the engagement section; and a non-shielded portion formed adjacent to the outer periphery of the speaker surface for allowing the operating section to be visible from a face side of the speaker surface. The non-shielded portion is an opening or a recess formed in a flange section projecting radially outward from the outer peripheral edge of the bottom surface of the cabinet section.

Abstract: A first expansion valve is provided in a first refrigerant circulation passage through which the refrigerant discharged from a compressor is able to circulate by passing sequentially through an external heat exchanger and an evaporator and returning to the compressor. A second expansion valve is provided in a second refrigerant circulation passage through which the refrigerant discharged from the compressor is able to circulate by passing sequentially through an auxiliary condenser and the external heat exchanger and returning to the compressor. The second expansion valve regulates the valve opening degree such that the refrigerant state at an inlet side of the compressor during a heating operation is in a range where the dryness of refrigerant is greater than or equal to 0.9 and the superheat of refrigerant is less than or equal to 5° C.

Abstract: A substrate having a transparent conductive layer has a transparent conductive pattern that is not easily visually recognizable by a naked human eye on a transparent substrate and can be formed by a simple and efficient method. In the case where a transparent conductive pattern is formed on a transparent substrate, the pattern region does not include conductive regions covered with uniform transparent conductive films or a high-resistance region that is not covered with the transparent conductive film, the high-resistance region electrically insulating the conductive regions. Instead of the conductive regions or the high-resistance region, the inventors use a region having a structure including a mixture of a portion covered with the transparent conductive film and a portion not covered with the transparent conductive film, thereby solving the foregoing visual recognition issue.

Abstract: The present invention has at least a first lens group G1 to a fifth lens group G5 which are disposed in order from an object. The first lens group G1 has positive refractive power, and is divided into at least two subgroups (front group G1F and rear group G1R in FIG. 1). One of the subgroups is a focusing lens group (rear group G1R in FIG. 1). The subgroup other than the focusing lens group (front group G1F in FIG. 1), out of the subgroups, is fixed, upon focusing from an infinite object point to a close object point.
