Abstract: The present invention causes a holder to hold a plane mirror without causing damage to a reflection layer. Provided is a head-up display comprising a housing, a display device that emits display light, a plane mirror that reflects the display light, and a holder that holds the plane mirror, wherein the plane mirror has a base material, and a reflection layer provided on the base material and including a resin film, and the holder abuts on a portion of the base material in which the reflection layer is not provided.

Abstract: Provided is a supporting apparatus which can make a sound when it is electrically connected to electronic equipment that is supported on the supporting apparatus. The supporting apparatus (1) that has a terminal (41) includes a first movable member (60) that moves downwardly when receiving a load of the electronic equipment, a restriction portion (53a), a second movable member (70) that is movable relative to the restriction portion (53a) in a direction intersecting with an upward and downward direction and that receives the load from the first movable member (60), a first spring (110) that is positioned between the first movable member (60) and the second movable member (70), and a collided portion (63a) that receives a collision with the second movable member (70).

Abstract: A brazing procedure including the steps of retaining a component (7) having a brazing section (2) therein by means of a die assembly (3, 4) which is compressed by a hot press (8), admitting (6) an inert gas into the component to produce an inert atmosphere inside the component having a pressure which is higher than the outer pressure, and then heating (5) the component thereby brazing the section. A brazing clearance is maintained at a proper amount prior to brazing, and the outer configuration of the component is maintained with enhanced precision. The brazing operation is also advantageous due to its reduced operating cost.

Abstract: A parallel swash plate type fluid machine includes a barrel which is rotatable integrally with a rotary shaft, a plurality of cylinder sections directed in the axial direction and opening respectively on the opposite sides of the barrel, pistons fitted in the respective cylinder sections and capable of projecting on the opposite sides of the barrel, and a pair of swash plates for restraining strokes of the pistons provided in a mutually parallel alignment on the opposite sides of the barrel. Parts communicate with respective fluid chambers in the plurality of cylinder sections and have inlet sides connected with each other through a twisted flow passageway and have outlet sides connected with each other through another twisted flow passageway.

Abstract: A method for coagulating a latex of a synthetic polymer having a coagulated latex particle formation temperature to form substantially spherical particles, the method comprising: forming substantially spherical latex particles by dispersing substantially spherical drops of the latex into a vessel or chamber containing a coagulating atmosphere which can be (i) a gaseous coagulant or (ii) a liquid coagulant in the form of a mist of drops having diameters such that the terminal settling velocity of the drops under free-falling conditions is in accordance with Stokes' Law, while maintaining the coagulant at the coagulated latex particle formation temperature and while causing water at the coagulated latex particle formation temperature to flow downward over the inner surface of the coagulation vessel to cause pluralities of polymer particles in a drop of the latex to coagulate to form substantially spherical coagulated latex particles.
