In a nonwoven fabric, uniaxially oriented bodies each including a thermoplastic resin layer and first and second adhesive layers respectively stacked on both surfaces of the thermoplastic resin layer and having melting points lower than that of a thermoplastic resin constituting the thermoplastic resin layer are warp-weft laminated with the first or second adhesive layer interposed between the uniaxially oriented bodies in such a manner that orientation axes thereof intersect each other. The nonwoven fabric has a mass per unit area of 5 to 13 g/m, a layer composition ratio of the first adhesive layer, the thermoplastic resin layer, and the second adhesive layer in each of the uniaxially oriented bodies is 20/60/20 to 30/40/30, and an average value of bending resistances by a cantilever method is less than or equal to 50 mm.

Nonwoven fabric and reinforcing laminate

A mesh nonwoven fabric which is seamless and excellent in appearance is provided. A seamless mesh nonwoven fabric is prepared by laminating a first mesh filmcontaining stem fibersstretching parallel to each other in a first direction and branch fibersconnecting adjacent stem fiberstogether, and a second mesh filmcontaining stem fibersstretching parallel to each other in a second direction intersecting the first direction and branch fibersconnecting adjacent stem fibers

A rod-shaped magnet is mounted on a rotating unit. The rod-shaped magnet has end surfaces which are oriented in a rotating direction and are magnetized to different magnetic poles. An angle detecting unit including magnetoresistive elements is disposed so as to be offset in a radial direction of a revolution path of the magnet from the revolution path and is configured to detect a change in angle of rotation of the rotating unit by detecting a leakage magnetic field in the vicinity of a side surface of the magnet. Two position detecting units each include magnetoresistive elements and are configured to detect a change in orientation of a magnetic field in the direction of a tangent to the revolution path when facing the rod-shaped magnet and produce a switch output.

Rotation detector

An information processing unit is provided which positively stabilizes a user's feeling and physical condition by deciding the user's feeling and physical condition based on the user's body temperature change and the like. Depending on the user's hand temperature, a CPU () automatically selects an aromatic for stabilizing the user's feeling and physical condition change, and directs an aromatic sprayer () to spray the aromatic, or directs a display part () to display a countermeasure message for maintaining the physical condition. This positively stabilizes the user's feeling and physical condition.

An input device for zooming and shutter releasing includes a shutter release button; a pressing protrusion; a tact switch located on a substrate and configured to be pressed when the shutter release button is pressed downward; a rotary member rotatably supported at the periphery of the shutter release button; a magnet configured to be rotated in association with rotation of the rotary member, the magnet having a through hole at the center thereof, the pressing protrusion supported to extend through the through hole; and a magnetic sensor located at a position to face the through hole in the height direction and configured to detect a rotational magnetic field that is generated by the magnet because of the rotation of the rotary member, the tact switch and the magnetic sensor arranged side by side on the substrate.

Input device

Disclosed is a position detecting device provided with a magnetoresistive element that can accurately detect a position using a magnet and a detector that moves opposite to the magnet. A front surface of a magnet having a circular shape is magnetized to the N-pole, and a rear surface thereof is magnetized to the S-pole. A detector moves in the X-Y plane at a position that is spaced from the front surface of the magnet. The detector is provided with an X direction detecting element and a Y direction detecting element. The X direction detecting element and the Y direction detecting element are magnetoresistive elements. The front surface of the magnet is tapered such that the center thereof protrudes.
