An air conditioning rotating body including a rotor having a cylindrical shape. The rotor is housed in a casing so as to be freely rotatable. The casing includes a seal member. The air conditioning rotating body treats air passing through the rotor in an axial direction. The seal member extends in a radial direction of the rotor and separates air passages. An end face of the rotor in the axial direction is provided with at least one spoke in contact with the seal member. A contact point of the seal member with the spoke is configured to move in the radial direction as the rotor rotates.

Air conditioning rotating body and air treatment device

An air treatment device includes: a casing having an inlet through which air is drawn, and an outlet out of which the air drawn through the inlet is blown; a blade configured to adjust a direction of the air blown out of the outlet; and a generator configured to generate an antimicrobial element that sanitizes the blade. The blade has a first surface, and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The blade is shiftable between a first position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the first surface and a second position in which the antimicrobial element is provided to the second surface.

Air treatment device

A symbol input method performed by a symbol input device having a display unit, a selector, and a determiner includes: displaying, by the display unit, a correspondence table indicating correspondences between input target symbols and selection target symbols and indicating that each of the input target symbols corresponds to one or more selection target symbols; ending the displaying by the display unit; prompting, by the selector, after the ending, a user to select one of the selection target symbols included in the displayed correspondence table; and determining, by the determiner, one input target symbol as a symbol to be input. The input target symbol is indicated in the displayed correspondence table and corresponds to the selection target symbol selected by the user in the prompting.

Symbol input method and symbol input device

In a lens actuator according to an exemplary embodiment, wires that connect a holder and a base of a movable unit have diameters of 30 &#x3bc;m or more and less than 70 &#x3bc;m, and the wires have longitudinal elastic moduli of 100 GPa or more and less than 500 GPa. The wire is flexible even if a small amount of currents are passed through a plurality of OIS coils, and the lens actuator suitable to electric power saving can be provided.

Lens actuator

A lens actuator includes a carrier that is configured to retain a lens; a first AF coil that is disposed in the carrier while wound about an axis perpendicular to a lens retaining surface; first to fourth magnets that are disposed opposite the first AF coil in four directions parallel to the lens retaining surface; a first OIS coil that is disposed opposite the first magnet; and a second OIS coil that is disposed opposite the second magnet. A current is passed through the first AF coil to move the carrier in a vertical direction along an axis. The currents are passed through the first and second OIS coils to a movable unit in front-back and left-right directions. Therefore, weight reduction of the movable unit can be achieved to provide a lens actuator, in which electric power saving can be achieved.

A loudspeaker device includes an enclosure, a loudspeaker unit and a passive radiator both mounted to the enclosure. The passive radiator includes an edge sandwiched and bonded between a first diaphragm and a second diaphragm. This structure allows increasing the bonding strength between the edge and the first diaphragm as well as between the edge and the second diaphragm, so that the loudspeaker device can withstand greater maximum inputs and reproduce quality bass sound.

Speaker system

A lens actuator includes a cylindrical carrier having a hollow for accommodating a lens, the hollow being formed in a first direction; a driving yoke for housing the carrier; a base for holding the yoke thereon; a driving magnet and a driving coil, which are fixed either to the outer periphery of the carrier or the driving yoke; a moving magnet fixed to the driving yoke; and a moving coil fixed to the base. The carrier is movable with respect to the driving yoke in the first direction, and the driving yoke is movable with respect to the base in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The driving magnet and the driving coil face each other in the second direction, and the moving magnet and the moving coil face each other in the first direction.

The present invention provides a loudspeaker including an edge formed in such manner that a thickness of a sectional shape in a radial direction increases from an inner peripheral portion toward an outer peripheral portion. Due to this structure, a mechanical impedance of the edge against a diaphragm is decreased and bad influences on a vibration mode of the diaphragm are suppressed, and also, vibration energy is absorbed by a thick portion of the outer peripheral portion, thereby suppressing standing waves of the diaphragm.
