A webbed bevel gear in which webs are formed of a minimal size so that the gear can be downsized, while also improving the mechanical strength of the gear. The webbed bevel gear is made so as to be capable of avoiding losses from the webs and so that the strength of the dedendum can be maintained by the webs, while the strength and the wear resistance of the dedendum and the tooth surface is further improved. The webbed bevel gears (2, 2a-2c) are constructed as follows: each of the webs is formed with a concave curved surface defined by the base cone so that it can connect the two adjacent teeth at the dedendum between the teeth at the radial end of the gear, the value obtained by dividing the height (h) of the webs in relation to the module (m) of the gear meets the equation 0.2.ltoreq.h/m.ltoreq.0.6, and the value obtained by dividing the width (w) of the webs along the generating line of the base cone by the width (W) of the gear along the generating line of the base pitch cone meets the equation 0.04.ltoreq.w/W.ltoreq.0.20. A surface treatment, such as carburizing and/or nitriding is performed in a state in which the webs are coated with a surface treatment inhibitor, or alternatively, the tooth surface and the dedendum, except for the webs, are coated with a hard layer formed of a super hard material.

Disclosed is a head-mount type display apparatus having an optical system which is of the back-irradiation type by which the user can see an extremely high-quality video image and by which the user makes only in-focus adjustment thereby improving operation convenience. The head-mount type display apparatus includes at least two optical systems each including a light source, a LCD through which the light from the light source is passed, a reflecting plate which reflects the light passing through the LCD, a screen on the back side of which the reflected light from the reflecting plate is focused to form an image and a lens by which the light from the screen is focused to form an image at a viewing point, and a head-mount type member for supporting the two optical systems which are opposed to left and right eyes. According to the preferred embodiment, interference and distortion in the projected images arising from the image of the edges of the LCDs is substantially reduced.

An oxide superconducting material is coated with silver or an alloy thereof and shaped into a linear body, and the linear body is subjected to diameter reduction by means of groove roll rolling, a swaging machine and the like, and then differential speed rolling and heat treatment are repeatedly performed, whereby the linear body is shaped into a tape-shaped wire material. The microstructure control in the longitudinal direction is performed uniformly and efficiently, and a superconducting wire having a high c-axis orientation ratio and a large critical current density Jc at a service temperature is obtained.

A display is attached to a reclining seat back by an arm pivotally fixed at a first end thereof to the seat back with the display being attached to the second end of the arm by a pivot mechanism having multiple degrees of freedom, and wherein a recess for stowing the display is formed in the seat back either on its side, its top or behind the head rest.
