Abstract: The present invention provides a rotary electronic component with a push switch which includes a single control knob for assuredly and individually operating a rotary component portion and a push switch. The rotary electronic component with the push switch comprises a rotary component portion such as an encoder portion including a rotary body horizontally rotatable in a fixed position, a knob shaft, a control knob fitted concentrically around the outer periphery of the knob shaft, a resilient portion disposed between the knob shaft and the inner periphery of the control knob, and a push switch portion located outside the control knob, wherein the rotary component portion is actuated by the horizontal rotation of the control knob and the push switch portion is actuated by the horizontal movement of the control knob.

Abstract: A pressure-resistant explosion-proof electric motor (44) is surrounded by a double casing comprised of inner and outer cases with a motor-cooling oil passage (54) formed therebetween. A flange (26) is detachably fitted to the top surface of a tank to hold the electric motor (44) in the tank. A downwardly-extending pipe (28) is at an upper end fixed to the flange and at a lower end connected through a terminal box (30) to the electric motor (44). A centrifugal pump (67) is fixed to the underside of the electric motor (44) to have its rotary shaft connected to the output shaft (60) of the electric motor (44). A motor cover accommodates therein the electric motor and the terminal box (30) in a watertight manner. A protective pipe (71) extends from the flange (26) to the motor cover (69) and accommodates therein the downwardly-extending pipe (28) in a watertight manner. A cooling oil is circulated through the motor-cooling oil passage (54) to cool the electric motor.

Abstract: A process for the manufacture of decorative intermediate films used in laminated glass sheets which comprises the following steps: (a) forming a transfer sheet with a desired printed pattern printed over a transfer sheet substrate with an ink capable of dyeing an intermediate film made of a thermoplastic resin and used in a laminated glass sheet; (b) applying over the printed pattern surface of the transfer sheet thus obtained and/or the surface of the intermediate film, a solvent composition capable of softening to some extent the vehicle of the printing ink and the intermediate film; (c) superposing the surface of the printed pattern over the surface of the intermediate film through the solvent-composition-coated surface and then pressing them against each other at a low temperature less than the glass transition point of the intermediate film, thereby transferring and impregnating the printed pattern over and into the surface of the intermediate film; and (d) separating the transfer sheet substrate from th
