A dry film resist is used to form an interlayer insulating film in a process for fabricating a liquid crystal display device of the POP structure. The dry film resist is formed by applying a photosensitive resin on a base film to a uniform thickness, and a protective film layer is formed on a surface of the photosensitive resin film thus formed. From the dry film resist guided to the vicinity of a glass substrate, the protective film is removed immediately before transfer. Then, the photosensitive resin is heated and pressed against the foregoing glass substrate by a transfer roller, whereby the interlayer insulating film is formed.

In a driving circuit for a liquid crystal apparatus, a DC offset voltage the level of which changes depending upon the level of input video signals is applied as an input video signal. The DC voltage which appears in the liquid crystal and the level of which changes depending upon the level of input video signals can be completely compensated.

A storage container can maintain a temperature inside a storage room not to cause a temperature distribution for a certain time even if the operation is stopped. In a storage container 1 storing preserved goods and having an electrical cooling function, the storage container 1 includes a container body 10 and a door 20. A space enclosed by the container body 10 and the door 20 forms a storage room 100. The container body 10 and the door 20 have respectively heat insulating portions 12, 22 and heat accumulating portions 14, 24. The heat accumulating portions 14, 24 are each made of at least one type of material that causes liquid-solid phase transition at a temperature between a controllable temperature inside the storage room 100 and a living environmental temperature. A value obtained by dividing temperature conductivity of the material by an amount of the material used per unit area of a wall surface of the storage room 100 is smaller in the heat accumulating portions 14, 24 arranged near a first area where a temperature is more apt to come closer to the living environmental temperature under a temperature distribution that is formed inside the storage room 100 with changes over time after stop of cooling, than in the heat accumulating portions 14, 24 arranged near a second area where a temperature is less apt to come closer to the living environmental temperature thereunder.
