Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pest-accumulating device and pest-accumulating method that can attract pests, such as chicken mites and the like, and keep the said pests therein, and that can be easily handled by anyone, and to provide a pest-inspecting device that allows the captured pests to be evaluated. A pest-accumulating device for accumulating mites such as chicken mites and northern fowl mites, includes an accumulating part 10 made of a material that allows a charged layer to be formed on a surface thereof. When a charged layer is formed in the accumulating part 10, mites, such as chicken mites and northern fowl mites, can be gathered in the accumulating part. When the pest-accumulating device 1 of the present invention is set up in a fixed place in a poultry house CH, mites such as chicken mites that parasitize chickens CK, and even mites such as chicken mites that enter into narrow spaces in the poultry house and chicken cages KG, can be accumulated in the accumulating part 10.

Abstract: A reduction in the size of a housing for containing a magnetic sensor is provided for a throttle device for a vehicle in which the turning amount of a throttle grip is detected by use of the magnetic sensor. An extension part of the throttle grip is provided at its outer periphery with an enlarged diameter part for holding magnets of the magnetic sensor. A right switch box is provided with Hall sensors of the magnetic sensor, and the enlarged diameter part and each of the Hall sensors are opposed to each other in the axial direction of a right handle bar. The throttle grip is urged toward the throttle full-closing position by a grip urging mechanism. The throttle full-closing position is maintained by only an urging force exerted from the grip urging mechanism.

Abstract: In an optical disk including at least a rewritable phase change material and comprising a recording layer having a reflectivity of more than 15%, an address output value as an address pit signal component occupying in a reproduced signal in a non recording state is prescribed to be 0.18 though 0.27 or a numerical aperture of an address pit signal occupying in a reproduced signal in a non recording state is prescribed to be more than 0.3.

Abstract: An information recording medium is composed of a substrate having a microscopic pattern constituted by a continuous substrate of grooves formed with a groove portion and a land portion alternately, a recording layer, and a light transmitting layer. The microscopic pattern is formed with satisfying a relation of P??/NA, wherein P is a pitch of the land portion or the groove portion, ? is a wavelength of reproducing light, and NA is a numerical aperture of an objective lens. The land portion is formed with wobbling so as to be parallel with each other for both sidewalls of the land portion. Auxiliary information and a reference clock are recorded alternately. Information is recorded in the recording layer corresponding to a land portion by either one change of reflectivity difference and refractive index difference in the recording layer.
