  • Publication number: 20190038524
    Abstract: A hair cosmetic material includes a first agent containing an alkali agent and a second agent containing an oxidizing agent. These first agent and second agent are used in a double structure container provided with a mechanism of separating the first agent and the second agent from each other and simultaneously discharging the both agents by a propellant. In the double structure container, a space for filling the first agent and a space for filing the second agent are each independently provided in the inside of a compressed gas filling space having a propellant for pressurization filled therein. Each of the first agent and the second agent is discharged in a liquid state, and each of the first agent and the second agent has a viscosity falling within the range of from 7,000 to 30,000 mPa·s at 25° C.

  • Patent number: 9789743
    Abstract: A vehicle suspension structure includes a suspension arm and a ball joint. The suspension arm is connected between a suspension member and a vehicle-widthwise outer side end connected to a vehicle wheel. The ball joint connects the suspension arm and the vehicle wheel. When the vehicle receives an impact in the longitudinal direction, a socket of the ball joint pivots relative to a ball as the suspension arm deforms, and a flange portion on an open side of the socket interferes with a stud shaft of the ball joint. The interference causes the flange portion to deform and the ball to come out of the socket to undo the link with the vehicle wheel by the ball joint. Upon becoming unlinked, the vehicle wheel moves toward the vehicle-widthwise outer side and interference with the rear vehicle body is suppressed to limit deformation of the vehicle body.

  • Patent number: 9588150
    Abstract: Current measuring device keeps fluctuation range for the ratio error in output within ±0.5% range and simplified assembly thereof. The measuring device includes at least a light entrance and exit, optical fiber for a sensor, Faraday rotator, first and second ¼-wavelength plates, polarization separator, light source, and signal-processing-circuit including a photoelectric-conversion-element. Optical fiber for a sensor has birefringence and includes one end wherein two circularly polarized light-beams having different rotation enter directions and another end reflects circularly polarized light-beams entered. Phase difference of two linearly polarized light-beams in the round-trip light path between two ¼-wavelength plates is compensated, and the Faraday rotational angle when the Faraday rotator is magnetically saturated set to 22.5°+?° so fluctuation range for ratio error in measured value of the current to be measured is set in range, ±0.5%.

  • Patent number: 9465053
    Abstract: Disclosed is an optical fiber birefringence compensation mirror. Also disclosed is a current sensor wherein vibration resistance has been increased due to the optical connection of the optical fiber birefringence compensation mirror. The optical fiber birefringence compensation mirror includes: an optical fiber, a birefringence element, a lens, a magnet, a Faraday rotator, and a mirror. From the light incidence/emission end surface of the optical fiber, the birefringence element, Faraday rotator, and mirror are arranged in said order. Light comes in from the optical fiber, and is separated into two linearly polarised lights by the birefringence element. The polarisation planes of the two linearly polarised lights are rotated by the Faraday rotator, and the two linearly polarised lights are point-symmetrically reflected at one point by the mirror, then again rotated by the Faraday rotator, then re-combined into one light by the birefringence element and made to enter the optical fiber.
