Abstract: In a light-emission and reception module for use in an optical pickup, a polarization beam splitter transmits an outgoing laser beam from the laser-emitting element and reflects, as a reflected laser beam, a return laser beam reflected by the optical disc in a direction perpendicular to the outgoing laser beam. The laser-emitting element, the polarization beam splitter, and the photo-detecting element are mounted on the holder. The reflected laser beam is perpendicular to a reception surface of the photo-detecting element.

Abstract: A muffler including a long outlet pipe 20 having an exhaust gas inlet pipe portion 21, a return pipe portion 22, an exhaust gas outlet pipe portion 23, and two turnaround pipes 24, 25 for connecting the three pipe portions 21, 22, 23 together in series. These pipe portions 21, 22, 23 are arranged in parallel with one another along a longitudinal direction of a shell 2, and in such a manner that longitudinal axes 21L, 22L, 23L of the pipe portions are positioned at respective vertices of a triangle.

Abstract: A pattern of lead terminals 22 is formed on a side face of a head body 4 provided with reproduction magnetic heads 9 each being formed with a magnetic gap 11 for reproducing at least an information signal, etc., recorded on a magnetic recording medium, and a preamplifier 6 for amplifying reproduction output detected by the magnetic gap 11 via the lead terminal 22 is mounted directly on the side face of the head body 4.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive element has a first end face for detecting an external magnetic field and a second end face which is opposed to the first end face. A pair of vertical bias layers sandwich the magnetoresistive element so as to expose the first and second end faces, to apply a bias magnetic field to the magnetoresistive element. Each of the vertical bias layers includes a face, which is continuous and flush with the second end face, having a length of 1.5 &mgr;m or greater. Alternatively, each of the vertical bias layers includes a face which is continuous with the second end face, and inclined by 0 to 45 degrees with respect to the second end face.

Abstract: A manual cleaner has a case, a roller brush having driven rollers and mounted between the side plates of the case, wheels kept in contact with the driven rollers and mounted on axles extending in parallel with the roller bruch, and dust pans provided at both sides of the roller brush. The dust pans are formed at both sides with bearing projections rotatably received in the side plates of the case so as to be pivotable about the projections. The projections are each formed with an axle receiving hole elongated horizontally so that the axles received in the holes can move toward and away from the roller brush. Thus the wheels can move toward and away from the driven rollers while keeping the dust pans in a stationary position. The shaft of the roller brush has both ends vertically movably mounted in bearing plates provided at both sides of the case and biased by springs downwardly. Spring members integrally formed on the bearing plates extend in opposite directions to abut and urge the dust pans closed.
