A lower cushioning structure and a package cushioning structure for a display panel are disclosed. The lower cushioning structure comprises: a supporting frame, comprising a baseplate as well as a first side plate and a second side plate extending upwards from two opposite sides of the baseplate respectively; two first cushions, being disposed at a location where the first side plate of the supporting frame borders the baseplate and a location where the second side plate of the supporting frame borders the baseplate respectively; and two second cushions, being disposed on an inner wall of the first side plate and an inner wall of the second side plate of the supporting frame respectively, wherein the second cushions are located above the first cushions. The present invention has a low cost and can provide satisfactory cushioning for the display panel.

The invention provides a retardation-controlling optical member that includes a retardation layer obtained by aligning and fixing crosslinkable liquid crystal molecules and columnar structures disposed on the retardation layer. When a liquid crystal cell is formed by use of the retardation-controlling optical member, the columnar structures are effectively inhibited from subsiding in the retardation layer to locally make the cell gap smaller even when pressure is externally applied in a thickness direction of the liquid crystal cell. A sum total of lower bottom areas of columnar structures disposed on a retardation layer is made larger sufficiently compared to a total area of, in particular, an effective display region of a retardation layer surface where the columnar structures are disposed, whereby pressure applied from a thickness direction is dispersed.

A proportional solenoid control valve comprises a flat square spring which is wide in maintaining width with respect to displacement of a spring having a greater spring constant, so that accurate control of fluid is realized. The flat square spring has four tubs and is supported with respect to a step face with outer peripheral section thereof. The valve further comprises a sealing mechanism loaded with rubber resilience compensates instability of armature construction and resilient sealing section. The spring constant of the flat square spring is improved by strengthening the magnetic force, thus hysteresis can be made to be smaller.

A multi-piece golf ball has a core (3), an interlayer (5), and a cover (7), the core (3) being provided with a spherical main part (31) and a plurality of ribs (32) formed on the main part (31), the interlayer (5) being accommodated in depressions (33) surrounded by the ribs (32) and having a thickness substantially the same as the height of the ribs (32), each of the ribs (32) extending in such a manner that the width thereof becomes greater from the cover towards the core, each of the depressions (33) being formed into a cone-like shape by side faces of the ribs (32), and the hardness of the interlayer (5) being less than that of the core (3). This structure achieves satisfactory soft feeling and high bounce resilience.

To provide a flexible polyurethane foam which is excellent in low resiliency and durability without using a plasticizer and which shows little change in hardness against a change in temperature and at the same time, has high air permeability. A process for producing a flexible polyurethane foam, which comprises reacting a polyol mixture comprising polyol (A), polyol (B) and monool (D) with a polyisocyanate compound in the presence of a blowing agent etc. at an isocyanate index of at least 90. Polyol (A) is a polyether polyol having an average of 2-3 hydroxyl groups and a hydroxyl value of from 10 to 90 mgKOH / g, obtained by ring-opening addition polymerization of an alkylene oxide to an initiator using a double metal cyanide complex catalyst; Polyol (B) is a polyether polyol having an average of 2-3 hydroxyl groups and a hydroxyl value of from 15 to 250 mgKOH / g, other than the polyol (A); and Monool (D) is a polyether monool having a hydroxyl value of from 10 to 200 mgKOH / g.

A process for producing a flexible polyurethane foam, which comprises reacting a polyol mixture with a polyisocyanate compound in the presence of a urethane-forming catalyst and a blowing agent, characterized in that the polyol mixture comprises the following polyol (A) and the polyol (B), and the proportion of the polyisocyanate compound to the polyol mixture is at least 90 by isocyanate index, and the total amount of Zn and Co contained in the polyol mixture is from 0.1 to 200 ppm.

A semiconductor device has a multi-layer interconnection structure with a first interlayer insulation film and a second interlayer insulation film that is formed on the first interlayer insulation film and has a hardness and an elastic modulus larger than those of the first interlayer insulation film, and is fabricated by a step of forming a resist film on the second interlayer insulation film via an antireflective film, a step of exposing to light and developing the resist film to form a resist pattern, and a step of patterning the antireflective film and the multi-layer interconnection structure using the resist pattern as a mask, wherein a film with no stress or for storing compressive stress is used as the antireflective film.

A golf ball 2 includes a spherical core 4, a mid layer 6 positioned outside the core 4, and a cover 8 positioned outside the mid layer 6. The core 4 includes a spherical center 10 and an envelope layer 12 positioned outside the center 10. The center 10 has a diameter of 1 mm or greater and 15 mm or less. The center 10 has a JIS-C hardness H1, at its central point, of 20 or greater and 50 or less. The difference (H4−H3) between the JIS-C hardness H4 of the core 4 at its surface and the JIS-C hardness H3 of the envelope layer 12 at its innermost portion is equal to or greater than 10. The cover 8 has a flexural modulus of 300 MPa or greater and 1000 MPa or less, and has a tensile modulus of 400 MPa or greater and 1500 MPa or less.

A fastening element has a core zone (14) formed of a relatively hard carbon steel, a skin zone (17) located outwardly of the core zone (14) and formed of a first low-carbon austenitic steel alloyed with a first alloy metal, and an intermediate zone (15a, 15b) provided between the core zone (14) and the skin zone (17) and formed of a second low-carbon steel having a smaller hardness than the steel the core zone (14) is formed of.

A midsole structure for a shoe not only maintains stability at the time of impacting the ground and improves cushioning property but also eliminates discomfort to a foot sole and improves ride feeling during running. The midsole structure (1) comprises at least two midsoles provided at a heel region of the shoe and having a hardness difference. On opposite sides of the heel region, an upper midsole (2) of a greater hardness has a thickness greater than a thickness of a lower midsole (3) of a smaller hardness. In a central part of the heel region, the lower midsole (3) of a smaller hardness has a thickness greater than a thickness of the upper midsole (2) of a greater hardness. Boundary surfaces (2B, 3A) between the upper midsole (2) and the lower midsole (3) do not appear on a top surface of the midsole structure (1) (that is, a foot sole contact surface (2A) of the upper midsole (2)).

A timepiece part, such as a balance staff, an oscillating weight or a dial, is made of polycrystalline material having a plurality of crystals each having a size of 0.7 μm or more and 3 mm or less. The crystals at a surface of the timepiece part have mirror-finished surfaces, and the surfaces may be anodized to provide corrosion resistance. The normal directions of the mirror-finished surfaces are different from one another and provide a metallic luster to the timepiece part.

[Problem]To provide a cushion pad that allows reducing the oppressive feeling in a thigh and the sinking of buttocks and improving the texture and the fit feeling.[Solution]In a portion positioned underneath a hip point of a seated person, an under-buttock portion is set to have a smaller force S25 during compression to 25% in a second portion including a seating surface than S25 of the first portion positioned on a bottom surface side. The thigh supporting portion is set to have smaller S25 of a portion including the seating surface than S25 of the first portion. This allows reducing the oppressive feeling in the thigh and the sinking of the buttocks and improving the texture and the fit feeling.
