Abstract: A press-fit fixing terminal is mountable to a wiring board by being inserted into a through-hole of the wiring board, and includes a flat plate section and a resilient contacting section. The flat plate section is made of metal thin plate and double-backed such that an end of the flat plate section is placed on a root side and a bent point works as an insertion tip when the terminal is inserted into the through-hole. The resilient contacting sections sandwich the double-backed portion of the flat plate section such that they are placed symmetrically with respect to the double-backed portion and both of the ridges of the resilient contacting section face outward viewed from the double-backed portion, so that each one of the resilient contacting sections forms a V-shape including an obtuse angle.

Abstract: The present invention provides a neutral fat reducing composition which reduces a blood neutral fat safely and efficiently, and whose active ingredient is a soybean protein containing 50% or more of a 7S globulin fractionated from a soybean protein and 0.2% or less of phytate based on the proteins. Its effect is further enhanced by removing a oil-body-associated protein and reducing a chloroform methanol-extractable oil fraction.

Abstract: A method for producing a composition containing soluble isoflavones is described, which uses soybean materials as raw materials. The composition is obtained in a natural state without addition of solubilizing agents and chemical modification, and has high solubility under neutral to acidic conditions and good long-term stability under refrigeration. By removing the insoluble materials from the water-extract liquid of a soybean material having a pH value of 2-7 and a temperature of 0-17° C., a composition containing isoflavones can be efficiently obtained with high solubility under neutral to acidic conditions and good stability under refrigeration.

Abstract: Rotary electronic component of the invention has a contact board and an elastic contact. The contact board, including an annular contact having an arc-segmental portion split by a slit with a predetermined width and signaling contacts disposed at spaced positions and in electrical continuation with the arc-segmental portion, is fixed in a resin molding with the annular contact exposed on the top plane of the resin molding. The elastic contact slides on the contact board along the annular contact. In this rotary electronic component, a stress occurring when the annular contact is fixed by molding on to the contact board is relaxed owing to presence of the slit. Thus, a rotary electronic component generating an electric signal with a stabilized waveform over a long time can be obtained.

Abstract: In a motor-driven slide type variable resistor, the tensioning of a toothed loop belt joined to an operating lever is adjusted with a pin adjusted to change the distance between a toothed pulley and a follower pulley in order to adjust a traveling speed of the operating lever.

Abstract: An illumination-type rotary variable resistor. A housing includes a round bottom plate, a cylindrical outer wall protruding in a first direction, and a cylinder. This housing houses an annular insulating substrate having a resistor film and LED conductive film on its surface facing in the first direction. An operating knob includes a cylindrical operating member rotatably fitted to the cylinder and a flange having a resistor slider and LED slider on a face in a second direction being opposite to the first direction. The operating member has a through hole along the first direction, and the flange is attached to the operating member in the second direction. A cover covers the housing and flange. A surface-mount LED is disposed in the through hole at an end which is facing in the second direction. A resistor slider slides on the resistor film, and a LED slider slides on the LED conductive film.
