Abstract: There is provided a multilayer tube for transporting a fuel, a chemical liquid or a gas, which is based on a thermoplastic resin, in particular a polyamide resin, wherein its inner layer comprises an electroconductive thermoplastic resin in which a fine carbon fiber has been blended as an agent imparting an electroconductivity, and it excels in a molding processability, a fuel oil resistance and an antistatic property.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a recording apparatus and method, a reproducing apparatus and method, and a program that make it possible to photograph and record a still image and moving images before and after the still image as well. In step S1, when a still-image-with-moving-image photographing mode is set, moving image temporary storage is started. When a shutter is depressed in step S2, in step S3, a photographed still image is recorded and one moving image is generated from the moving image before the still image stored in step S1, a moving image obtained by converting the photographed still image, and a moving image photographed after the depression of the shutter and the one moving image generated is recorded. Therefore, the moving images before and after the still image are recorded together with a high-definition still image.

Abstract: A polyamide resin composition comprising a PA 6/12 (component A), a plasticizer (component B), and a modified polyolefin (component C), the component A comprising units a derived from ?-caprolactam or ?-aminocaproic acid and units b derived from aminododecanoic acid or ?-laurolactam, wherein the content of the units a in the units constituting the component A is 60 to 98% by weight and the content of the units b in the units constituting the component A is 40 to 2% by weight, wherein the content of the component A in the polyamide resin composition is 50 to 98% by weight, the content of the component B in the polyamide resin composition is 20 to 1% by weight, and the content of the component C in the polyamide resin composition is 30 to 1% by weight. The composition can provide various characteristics which are at least equivalent to those of PA 12.

Abstract: A floating magnetic head for use in a fixed-type magnetic disk drive has a slider with a coil groove defined therein and opening at the trailing end of the slider. The coil groove has a bottom remote whose width is smaller than the width of the coil groove at the trailing end. The coil groove may be tapered linearly or stepwise, and the bottom may be arcuate in shape. The slider has upper and lower walls between which the coil groove is defined, the upper and lower walls being progressively thicker toward the bottom of the coil groove. The progressively thicker upper and lower walls are mechanically strong against shocks and other excessive forces, and also against stresses applied from coils wound in multiple layers on a core tip inserted in a slit that is defined in the slider across the coil groove.
