  • Publication number: 20240101468
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a technology of obtaining a ceramic product including a decorative film which has a sufficient chemical resistance and can reduce damage during cleaning. A decorative composition disclosed herein contains at least a noble metal element and a glass matrix element. The glass matrix element contains a rare-earth element and a first element which is at least one selected from the group consisting of Si and Al. In the decorative composition disclosed herein, the content of the rare-earth element in the glass matrix element is from 1 mol % to 45 mol % inclusive, and the content of the first element in the glass matrix element is from 50 mol % to 90 mol % inclusive. This allows the decorative film having both alkali resistance and acid resistance at high level to be formed.

  • Patent number: 6962652
    Abstract: The invention provides a skin-care liquid preparing unit comprising: a main container which contains raw water; a cartridge container which is placed in the main container, and which contains different kinds of cation exchange resins; and a sprayer which is attached to an upper end mouth portion of the main container, and which has a suction pipe connected to an upper portion of the cartridge container. The unit is configured so as to pass the raw water in the main container through the cartridge container from a lower portion of the cartridge container and spray the water from the spray. In the unit, in order to easily prepare skin-care liquid of a pH value that is useflil for moisture retention and health of the skin, an Na type or K type cation exchange resin layer and an H type cation exchange resin layer are formed to be arranged in upper and lower positions in the cartridge container.

  • Patent number: 4749144
    Abstract: An emergency locking retractor for seat belts comprises a spindle, a swing member loosely inserted into the spindle and having engaging teeth on the outer periphery thereof, a locking member having internal teeth engageable with the engaging teeth of the swing member, a synchrogear slidably rotatable with the spindle to engage the swing member with the locking member, and an acceleration sensing device engagable with the synchrogear. The swing member has a supporting tooth in addition to the engaging teeth, the synchrogear is provided with a balance weight for compensating deviation of the center of weight of the swing member from the rotation center of the spindle, and the spindle is provided with a reinforcing plate and further with projections integrally formed which are so positioned that the projected portions may be present on the upper surface of the swing member to prevent any upward movement of the swing member causing disengagement.

  • Patent number: 4620677
    Abstract: A seat belt retractor including a main body, a spindle rotatably journaled to the main body having a seat belt wound around the outer periphery thereof, a stopper having teeth formed at the top end thereof for engaging with external gear to inhibit the rotation of the external gear, a solenoid plunger associated with a switch in buckle parts fitted to the seat belt, a friction plate having a pair of spaced first and second projections and a recess formed therebetween with an inclined edge for controlling the movement of the stopper in such manner that, when the solenoid plunger is not actuated, the stopper is located in a non-engaging position to the external gear to enable freely pulling out and rewinding of the seat belt. When the solenoid plunger is actuated by the operation of the buckle parts, the first projection or the inclined edge of the friction plate inhibits the stopper from engaging with the external gear to allow the rewinding of any slack of the pulled out seat belt.
