Abstract: The analysis apparatus includes a standby section which is provided between a dispensing operation of an analysis item B? prior to an analysis item C and the sample analysis channel introduction. The sample analysis channel introduction is arranged prior to a data collection section of an analysis item A. The operation is started earlier but after a sample dispensing operation section of the analysis item A. A sample dispensing operation section of the analysis item C can be started earlier and the analysis time of the analysis item C can be moved to immediately after a sample analysis operation section of the analysis item B?. The analysis item A in a second cycle can be started earlier by the early start time of the analysis item C in a first cycle. A total processing time Tc can be shorter than a total processing time Tb.

Abstract: Provided is an electronic pen including an electronic pen main part including a first sealing member that covers circumference of a tip side of the electronic pen main part and a second sealing member disposed along an outer edge of the electronic pen main part at a position separate from a tip toward a rear end side of the electronic pen main part, and an inside body that is tubular and has an inner wall surface with which the first sealing member and the second sealing member come into contact through insertion of the tip side of the electronic pen main part into the inside body.

Abstract: A gear shift control device for a continuously variable transmission of a vehicle is configured to steplessly and continuously change and output a rotation speed of an engine. The gear shift control device includes a gear shift control unit and a torque control command unit. The gear shift control unit is configured to implement a pseudo-stepped upshift control to change a gear shift ratio in steps when upshifting the continuously variable transmission. The torque control command unit is configured to output a torque reduction command so as to reduce an engine torque in conjunction with the pseudo-stepped upshift control so that reduction of the engine torque starts before a point in time when an actual gear shift ratio starts changing in response to an upshift command.
