A key switch includes a switch provided on a base, a key top for operating the switch, and a link mechanism supported on the base and supporting the key top on its upper side, a shape of the link mechanism being changed when the key top is depressed. A movable plate is provided on the base, in stacked relationship; such that the movable plate is moved when the key top is depressed so as to change the shape of the link mechanism to a flat shape. An auxiliary link mechanism has a first part supported on the moveable plate and, in turn, by the base and a second part supporting the key top.

An ultra-wide angle liquid crystal projector system comprising a light source, a liquid crystal panel, a curved screen, and a projection lens for projecting in accordance with light emitted by the light source an image formed on the liquid crystal panel onto the curved screen. The projection lens has a curvature of field substantially conforming to the shape of the curved screen and an angle of projection of at least 120 degrees. The projection lens is disposed with respect to the curved screen so that a distance from an exit surface of the projection lens to the curved screen is less than 3 meters.

In a vehicle cornering lamp system, a control signal having a pulse width corresponding to a steering angle is periodically produced, and the amount of position shift between the actual direction of illumination of the headlamps and the target direction of illumination determined from the steering angle is detected according to the control signal thus produced. An electric motor is driven to change the direction of illumination of the headlamps so that the amount of position shift becomes zero, that is, the direction of illumination of the headlamps is linearly changed with the electric motor while following the steering angle.

In a projection lens device having at least two plastic lenses for magnification-projecting an original image displayed on a display screen onto a screen, one of the two plastic lens is convex at a center thereof toward the screen and concave at a periphery thereof, and the other lens has a weak positive refractive power toward the screen at a center thereof and a stronger positive refractive power at a periphery thereof. A variation of a lens power due to a change of a surrounding environment is cancelled out by the concave shape at the periphery of the one lens and the positive refractive power at the periphery of the other lens.

A moisture-proof container including: a container body; a lid hermetically closing the container body to be openable and closable; and a desiccant storage case that is put on a bottom portion of the container body. The desiccant storage case includes: an inner case having an opening at one end; a desiccant stored in the inner case; and a moisture transmission dustproof sheet to seal the opening of the inner case. The inner case has, at an outer circumferential wall thereof, a groove connecting between an open end and a bottom portion, the container body includes a base on a bottom plate, and the desiccant storage case is put in the container body such that the moisture transmission dustproof sheet abuts the base, and a gap is formed between the bottom plate of the container body, and the moisture transmission dustproof sheet.
摘要:
A transmission screen for a rear projection type image display apparatus having at least one image generation source for displaying images, at least one projection lens for enlarging and projecting images displayed on the at least one image generation source onto a rear portion of the transmission screen for display. The transmission screen of the image display apparatus enables display of the images projected onto the transmission screen with a contrast of at least 70. Further, the transmission screen enables display with a field angle within a range of at least 72.degree. to less than 100.degree.. The transmission screen also includes a glossy light absorbing layer and a substantially smooth mirror surface at a light exit surface thereof.

Methods of conducting Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) involving using a TLC plate having sample spots and including no support material, placing the TLC plate on a porous substrate, and allowing solvent to move upwardly from the porous substrate toward the TLC plate by capillary action to be vaporized from the surface of the TLC plate, thereby concentrating the sample spots developed in the thin layer on the surface of the TLC plate.
