A sheet for whitening cosmetics comprises a sheet-like substrate and an adhesive layer which comprises a wet pressure-sensitive adhesive composition formed on the substrate. The whitening component includes vitamin C or its derivatives such as magnesium L-ascorbyl-2-phosphate, vitamin E nicotinate, kojic acid, hydroquinone, ellagic acid, albumin, galenical extracts, and rice bran extracts. Kojic acid and magnesium L-ascorbyl-2-phosphate are preferred. By contacting the adhesive layer with water and/or a hydrophilic medium such as alcohols, e.g., methanol, ethanol, etc., the wet pressure-sensitive adhesive composition exhibits excellent stickiness and excellent applicability to skin as well as excellent whitening effect with alleviating or eliminating stains, freckles, non-transparency, etc. on the skin.

An articulated robot having a swivel base supported on a support base for swivel movement about a vertical axis, a first arm pivoted on the swivel base for swing movement about a first swing axis perpendicular to the vertical axis and a second arm pivoted on the forward end of the first arm for swing movement about a second swing axis parallel to the first swing axis, wherein a servomotor for moving the second arm is mounted on the swivel base. The robot is provided with a gear train transmitting the rotation of the servomotor to the second arm, and the gear train is composed of a drive gear rotated by the servomotor to be rotated about the first swing axis, a driven gear fixed to the second arm for rotational movement about the second swing axis together with the second arm, and three idler gears disposed between the drive gear and driven gear for transmitting the rotation of the drive gear to the driven gear. The robot is also provided with a backlash eliminating mechanism for eliminating backlashes between those gears.

An aqueous resin emulsion is disclosed. The emulsion is obtained by emulsion copolymerizing a monomer mixture comprising (a) an acrylic acid fluoroalkyl ester derivative, (b) an acrylic acid derivative, and (c) a polyfunctional monomer for internal cross-linking, in an aqueous medium. The emulsion shows excellent polymerization stability in emulsion copolymerization for the preparation thereof and excellent dispersion stability in an aqueous medium.

In a drive force transmission apparatus, when an input shaft is rotated in a normal rotational direction, a rotational force of the input shaft is transmitted to an output shaft through a one-way clutch to rotate the output shaft at a rotational speed, which is the same as a rotational speed of the input shaft. At this time, an input side sub-shaft is freed from an output side sub-shaft. In contrast, when the input shaft is rotated in a reverse rotational direction, the rotational force of the input shaft is transmitted to the output shaft through an input gear, a first gear, the input side sub-shaft, a two-way clutch, the output side sub-shaft, a second gear and an output gear. At this time, the output shaft is freed from an intermediate shaft.

An image pickup lens includes a first lens block with a positive refractive power, a second lens block with a negative refractive power, and an aperture stop. The first lens block includes a first lens substrate, and lens portions 1a and 1b arranged on the first lens substrate. The lens portions 1a and 1b are different from the first lens substrate in at least one of a refractive index and an Abbe number. The second lens block includes a second lens substrate, and lens portions 2a and 2b arranged on the second lens substrate. The lens portions 2a and 2b are different from the second lens substrate in at least one of a refractive index and an Abbe number. The image pickup lens satisfies predetermined conditions relating to a refractive index of the lens portion 2b, and composite thicknesses of the first lens block and the second lens block.
