Abstract: A method for producing a resin sintered body 1 by applying an ink 3 to thermoplastic resin powder 2 and sintering the powder, the method including the step of immersing an intermediate resin sintered body 1m, which has an unevenly colored region on the surface thereof and the whole of which has been already sintered, in a surface treatment liquid containing sulfuric acid and chromic anhydride, in which the concentration of chromic anhydride is 300 g/L or more, for 5 minutes or longer. When producing a resin sintered body by sintering thermoplastic resin powder, the surface of the resin sintered body can be evenly and sufficiently colored to an extent required without an unevenly colored region on the surface thereof, and also the surface of the resin sintered body can have a good appearance and smoothness.

Abstract: In a vehicle user-assistance system, a user's voice is acquired before the user enters a vehicle, and the mental state of the user is inferred based on the acquired voice. Then, it is determined whether the inferred mental state is an irritated state compared with a criterial value. When the mental state is an irritated state, navigation that relieves irritation is proposed to the user having entered the vehicle. Thus, the user starts to travel with his or her irritation reduced or relieved.

Abstract: A projector is disposed inside a seatback of a front seat as a vehicle seat; therefore, when a driver as an occupant seated in the front seat checks the rear side with a rearview mirror or the like, the projector can be restrained from entering the field of view of the driver. Accordingly, different from the case in which the projector is disposed on a ceiling of the vehicle cabin or the like and exposed into the vehicle cabin, it is possible to restrain the projector from blocking the field of view of the driver.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an engine-driven welding machine 1 including: a current selector 52 via which a user sets a current for each of DC power supplies, and which outputs a setting signal based on the current set by user; an output switcher 71; and a controller 4. The output switcher 71 has the function of switching between a first output mode in which outputs of the plurality of DC power supplies 2, 3 are collectively outputted from a predetermined welding output terminal 23, and a second output mode in which outputs of the DC power supplies 2, 3 are individually outputted from the welding output terminals 23, 33. The controller 4 automatically switches between the first and second output modes in accordance with the setting signal received from the current selector 52.

Abstract: An on-vehicle equipment operation device includes an air-conditioning duct that has an open end through which air-conditioned air blows, a display that is disposed outside the air conditioner and configured to display an image, an image forming optical element, and at least one equipment operation switch that is disposed at a lower edge of the open end. The image forming optical element is configured to form, as a floating image near the open end of the air-conditioning duct, a real image of the image that is displayed on the display. The floating image includes at least one equipment operation icon. The at least one equipment operation switch corresponds to the at least one equipment operation icon.

Abstract: Provided is a method for producing a polyethylene-based resin extruded foam sheet by extruding and foaming a foamable molten resin composition formed by kneading a mixture containing a low-density polyethylene, a physical blowing agent, and an antistatic agent, wherein the foam sheet has a thickness in a range of from 0.05 to 0.5 mm, and the antistatic agent is a polymeric antistatic agent having a melting point whose different from the melting point of the low-density polyethylene is in a range of from ?10 to +10° C., and having a melt flow rate of 10 g/10 min or more. This method enables a novel polyethylene-based resin extruded foam sheet to be obtained that is of high quality such that formation of a small hole or a through-hole has been reduced or eliminated, and has both excellent strength and a shock-absorbing property despite a very small thickness even in medium- or long-term continuous production, and besides, exhibits a sufficient antistatic property, thus suitable as a glass plate interleaf sheet.
