Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a porous sheet capable of satisfy both the properties of fitting, preventing tightening, and providing comfort immediately after wearing or at a standstill/at rest and the properties of tightening, fixation stability, and providing comfort during exercise such as sports at the same time, as well as a porous composite comprising the porous sheet, or particularly, a porous sheet and a porous composite for clothing, health products, medical supplies, and sporting goods. The present invention relates to a porous sheet made of a thermoplastic elastomer composition (A), having a plurality of slits and/or pores, and having a porosity of 5 to 50%, an anisotropy of 10% or more, and a stretching stress relaxation rate of 40% or less after being stretched by 500% and held for 60 seconds.

Abstract: A problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a thermoplastic elastomer vibration-controlling sheet minimizing numbness of hands, feet, and a body even when a strong impact is applied as in the case where the sheet is bonded to and used on a grip of sporting goods such as a bat and a tennis racket serving as an object to be bonded. The present invention relates to a vibration-controlling sheet having an adhesive on one or both sides of a thermoplastic elastomer sheet that has numerous through-holes at a porosity of 5 to 80% and that has a loss factor tan ? of 0.3 or more at 0° C. and 30 Hz.

Abstract: A problem to be solved by the present invention is to further improve a performance of a conventional structure having a low-resilience elastic member and a high-resilience elastic member and, particularly, to provide a structure such as clothes, a supporter, a sock, or footwear giving a soft wearing feeling while making a body motion extremely smooth during exercise and a wearer less tired.

Abstract: A robot toy includes a body and a controller. The body includes right and left arms, legs, arm-actuating mechanisms, thrust mechanisms, and a driving unit. The arms can be extended forward and back, and are pulled back by a predetermined biasing force in a normal condition. The arm-actuating mechanisms are provided at the respective arms and allow the corresponding arms to be extended and pulled back. The thrust mechanisms are provided at the respective legs and allow the corresponding legs to move forward. The driving unit drives one of a pair of the left arm-actuating mechanism and the left thrust mechanism and a pair of the right arm-actuating mechanism and the right thrust mechanism. The driving unit simultaneously drives the arm-actuating mechanism and the thrust mechanism in the same pair.

Abstract: To allow a DC voltage to be obtained as an output signal for higher versatility. A sensor unit 400 has three electrodes: a transmission electrode 401, a reception electrode 402 and a shielding electrode 403. The shielding electrode 403 shields the transmission electrode 401 and the reception electrode 402 from each other in terms of high-frequency and is constantly earthed. A high-frequency voltage is applied to the transmission electrode 401 from a high-frequency oscillation circuit 410. A high-frequency voltage depending upon the magnitude of the electrostatic capacity between the electrodes 401 and 4023 is outputted from the reception electrode 402. The high-frequency voltage outputted from the reception electrode 402 is converted into a DC voltage by a detection circuit 420. The presence or absence or the amount of a substance is determined based on the magnitude of the DC voltage produced in the detection circuit 420.

Abstract: A device for disposing excrements of a person lying with the face upward, comprising: a cuplike body having a rim provided with a sealing member engageable with the body of the person to sealingly cover an anus region of the person such that a space for passing excrement of the person is defined between the cuplike body and the person's body, a guide projection extending obliquely downward in the direction opposite to the face of the lying person from the cuplike body at a position facing the anus region of the lying person, the guide projection being terminated in an opening; and a flexible tube connected to the opening of the guide projection for discharging the excrements therethrough.

Abstract: The invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit for communication control and a wireless communication system using the same realizing reduction in the size of a chip and the size of a module by enabling trimming data to be written into a nonvolatile memory without increasing the number of external terminals. A rewritable nonvolatile memory is provided in a semiconductor integrated circuit, characteristics of circuits including an electronic part are measured and trimming data for correcting variations in the characteristics is stored in the nonvolatile memory. A pin and an interface circuit such as a test pin and a JTAG interface circuit which are originally provided for the semiconductor integrated circuit also serve as an input pin and an interface circuit for sending and storing the trimming data to the nonvolatile memory.
