A pressure sensing system (24), seat cushion (20) incorporating the pressure sensing system, and method of sensing a weight group associated with an occupant of an automotive seat are described. The pressure sensing system includes a layer of an electrically conductive foam (28) and a flexible printed circuit (26) that includes a flexible substrate (26a) and N horizontal sensing wires (26b) and M vertical sensing wires (26c) securely placed on a top surface of the flexible substrate. The horizontal sensing wires intersect with the vertical sensing wires and form NM intersections. The layer of an electrically conductive foam is placed on top of the N horizontal sensing wires and the M vertical sensing wires. When a pressure is applied to the layer of the electrically conductive foam, each intersection generates in real time an electric flux density value to reflect a degree of a compression caused by the pressure to a corresponding point of the electrically conductive foam.

Also, disclosed is a light-emitting structure in which a light source disposed on the resin molded body side of the decorative molded body is disposed.

There is provided a fishing rod preventing or suppressing deviation or inclination of a fitting on a surface of a rod body. The fishing rod includes an elongated cylindrical rod body, a fitting having a mounting portion and mounted to an outer peripheral surface of the rod body via the mounting portion, a first layer formed by winding a first sheet so as to enclose the mounting portion and the rod body, the first sheet being made of a fiber-reinforced resin or a resin having a thermal shrinkage rate of 2.5% or lower, and a second layer formed by winding a second sheet made of a fiber-reinforced resin on an outer side of the first sheet, wherein a temperature at which a loss tangent of the first sheet has a maximum value is different from a temperature at which a loss tangent of the second sheet has a maximum value.

Tabbed sealing members with a robust tab structure having additional support under the tab and at a tab pivot or hinge joint.

The present disclosure relates to a method for transferring an embossed structure to a surface of a coating composition (B2a), which includes the steps (1-i) and (2-i) or (1-ii) and (2-ii) and also the steps (3) and optionally (4), where the steps (1-i) and (2-i) or (1-ii) and (2-ii) are performed using a composite (F1B1) which is employed as an embossing die (p2) of an embossing tool (P2) and which is composed of a substrate (F1) and of an at least partially embossed and at least partially cured coating (B1), and the coating composition (B1a) used for producing (B1) of the composite (F1B1) is a radiation-curable coating composition of defined constitution. Also described herein is a composite (F1B1).

A color conversion film converts incident light into light with a wavelength longer than that of the incident light. The color conversion film is a laminate film including the following Layer(A) and Layer (B): Layer (A): a color conversion layer as a continuous layer containing at least one organic light-emitting material and a binder resin; and Layer (B): a transparent resin layer with an oxygen permeability of 1.0 cc/m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm or less.

An objective of the present invention is to provide a film to hold a metal layer, a metallic decorative sheet intermediate product, a metallic decorative sheet, a metallic molded product, and a method for producing a metallic molded product which prevent the occurrence of the whitening phenomena or the like of the metallic molded product which occur during production of the metallic molded products by using a metallic decorative sheet, as well as enables molding in a wider temperature range. A film to hold a metal layer comprises a thermoplastic resin having a melting point of 230 C. to 250 C. is provided, wherein the film to hold a metal layer has transparency.

In a decorative molding method a film having an uneven shape printed thereon and a film having a pattern printed thereon are separately supplied to a metal mold, the films are positioned separately, and a molding material is simultaneously injected into the metal mold to carry out injection molding. In a decorative molding apparatus for realizing the above method, a suction circuit for adsorbing each of the films on a film adsorption surface of the metal mold and an air blowing circuit for peeling off the films are disposed, and, after the injection molding, air blowing on each film is started separately from the start of opening of the metal mold, and the metal mold and the films are brought into a positive pressure state, then the molded article is taken out, a clamp jig is released to release the films, and the air blowing continues until the following patterns of the films are placed inside the metal mold.

A liquid blow molding device for liquid blow molding a resin preform into a container having a predetermined shape. The liquid blow molding device includes a mold in which the preform is disposed; a stretch rod that axially stretches the preform disposed in the mold (; and a pressurized liquid supply that supplies a pressurized liquid to the preform. The liquid blow molding device operates such that the amount of the liquid supplied from the pressurized liquid supply to the inside of the preform before completing the stretching of the preform by the stretch rod (22) is 50% or less of the amount of the liquid to be filled in the container after the completion of the liquid blow molding.
