Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an emitter and a drip irrigation tube that can suppress the variations in the discharge amount of the liquid in the drip irrigation tube. The emitter (120) of the present invention is an emitter for regulating discharge of irrigation liquid. The emitter (120) includes an intake portion for taking in the liquid in the tube (110); a regulating unit that regulates a discharge amount of the liquid; a discharge portion for discharging the liquid via a discharge port (112) of the tube (110); and a flow path communicating the intake portion and the regulating unit. The regulating unit includes a recess and a film, the film is fixed in a state of covering an inner space of the recess, a region of the film covering the inner space of the recess is a diaphragm portion, the recess has a through hole communicating with the discharge portion and a plurality of slits communicating with the through hole, and an edge portion forming an upper surface-side opening of the through hole, excluding the plurality of slits, is a valve seat portion. When the diaphragm portion of the film comes into contact with the valve seat portion, the film and the slits form communication ports to the through hole, and each slit serves as a flow path to the through hole. The emitter (120) satisfies condition (1):Condition (1): Assuming a cross-sectional area of the communication port formed by the film and the slit required when the emitter has one slit to be 1, a cross-sectional area of a communication port to the through hole formed by the film and each slit is less than 1.

The emission device is provided with a light flux control member having a recess and light control emission face which is configurated so as to satisfy Conditions 1 and 2 in a range at least covering a half-intensity-angular-range. Light emitting element(s) may be sealed. Condition 1 is that relation θ5/θ1>1 is satisfied except for light emitted from a light emitting element toward within an angular-neighbourhood of a standard optical axis of the emission device, and Condition 2 is that value of θ5/θ1 decreases gradually according to increasing of θ1, where θ1 is an emission angle of any light at being emitted from the light emitting element, and θ5 is an emission angle of that light of θ1 at then being emitted from the light control emission face of the light flux control member.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lens (i.e., luminous flux control member) for an optical element of a backlight, capable of easily aligning the orientation in the plane direction. The luminous flux control member according to the present invention includes a lens main body and legs. The lens main body includes a light-entering area for light emitted from a light-emitting element to enter on the lower surface side and a light-emitting area for emitting the light entered from the light-entering area to the outside on the upper surface side. The legs are legs for mounting the luminous flux control member on a substrate on which the light-emitting element is mounted and are disposed on the lower surface of the lens main body so as to project downward. The luminous flux control member satisfies the following condition 1 or 2: (Condition 1) at least one of the legs is accommodated in one of two grooves having different widths, and all of the other legs are accommodated in the other groove only when the lens main body is oriented in one predetermined direction or an opposite direction thereto; and (Condition 2) the lens main body or all of the legs are accommodated in one groove only when the lens main body is oriented in one predetermined direction or an opposite direction thereto.

Abstract: An injection-molded impeller includes a center shaft portion and a plurality of vanes. The plurality of vanes are formed at a peripheral area of the center shaft portion at regular intervals. The injection-molded impeller is rotated around an axial center CL of the center shaft portion to flow out a fluid flowed in between the adjacent vanes from a direction along the axial center CL of the center shaft portion toward a radially outer side. The vanes include non-deflecting shape portions and arc-shaped flow deflecting portions. The non-deflecting shape portions linearly extend from the center shaft portion along a radial direction. The flow deflecting portions extend from the non-deflecting shape portions to radially outward ends. The vanes are formed in a spiral pattern from one end side to another end side along the axial center CL of the center shaft portion.

Abstract: This light-emitting device has a light-emitting element and a light flux control member. The light flux control member has an entry surface, a light control surface, a back surface, and a ring-shaped groove. The light control surface includes a first transmission portion, a total reflection portion, and a second transmission portion. The ring-shaped groove includes a first inner surface and a second inner surface. A second light beam, which is a light beam that is part of the light beam emitted from the light-emitting center of the light-emitting element, enters the interior of the light flux control member at the entry surface, is totally reflected at the total reflection portion, then internally reflected at the second inner surface, and exits from the second transmission portion to the exterior of the light flux control member.
