Abstract:
A container and pump device is provided that allows interference in pumping action, caused by collapsing of an inner layer of the container during expulsion of fluid from within the container, to be eliminated. The container can be a laminated bottle having a mouth portion, a body, a bottom portion, and at least an inner layer and an outer layer. The pump device includes a suction portion inserted into the bottle and an operable portion exposed to an outside of the bottle. The suction portion is open to a lower end of the pump and includes a rod extending toward the bottom of the bottle. The rod has a cross-section that extends in more than two directions, preferably an I-beam with a centrally intersecting beam. The suction portion, including the rod, creates several fluid communication paths along the I-beam rod from the inner layer to the pump.
Abstract:
A reciprocation control apparatus includes a manifold including delivery and exhaust ports formed therethrough, the manifold being movable between an air delivery/exhaust pipe to a pushing-out cylinder and an air delivery pipe to an air supply. When the manifold is moved to a position in which the delivery and exhaust ports are connected to each other, air is selectively supplied to or exhausted from the head and cap sides of the pushing-out cylinder. Thus, the pushing-out cylinder can easily and simply be controlled in reciprocation. When such a reciprocation control apparatus is incorporated into a ring alignment apparatus, the ring alignment apparatus can easily and simply be switched from one state to another with an automated alignment being carried out to handle a number of ring members.
Abstract:
Coating compositions are disclosed which are effectively applicable to the plating of insulating bases for use in manufacturing printed circuit boards by the additive process. Selected composite rubber materials are combined with specified amounts of a selected type of calcium sulfate, whereby blister resistance by plating, heat resistance at soldering and peel strength are greatly improved.
Abstract:
An oversampling converter includes first and second integrators for integrating a difference between an input terminal voltage and feedback voltages, first and second quantizers for quantizing outputs from the first and second integrators, respectively, first and second feedback paths for feeding back as the feedback voltages outputs from the first quantizer to the input sides of the first and second integrators, a differentiator arranged at an output side of the second quantizer, an adder for adding an output from the differentiator and the output from the first quantizer, and a circuit for supplying an output from the first integrator to an input terminal of the second integrator. Two or more quantization loops may be used. When the oversampling converter is used as an A/D converter, A/D converters are arranged in the first and second feedback paths. When the oversampling converter is used as a D/A converter, D/A converters are arranged between the adder and the first quantizer and between the adder and the second quantizer.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a microelectronic circuit device on a substrate by forming a layer of electrically and thermally conductive material (13) on a surface of a substrate (10). Channels are then etched in the layer of conductive material (13) to form patterns of the conductive material which are delineated from the remainder of the layer of conductive material.The channels are filled with an electrically insulating material (21, 22, 23) so as to form a substantially planar surface layer on the substrate. Finally, a microelectronic circuit device (e.g., 25) is formed on the substantially planar surface.
Abstract:
An elevating container includes an elliptically shaped main tube, a non-circularly shaped moveable support unit which moves upwardly or downwardly along an inner surface of a storage tube of the main tube without rotating, and a driving unit fitted to the main tube to rotate in threaded engagement to the support unit without moving upwardly or downwardly. A seal section at the lower end of the inner peripheral surface of the storage tube and a sealing cylinder at the lower end of the support unit are air-tightly fitted to each other. In addition, positioning ribs are provided at the lower end of the storage tube, and positioning notches are provided at the lower end of the moveable support unit. When the positioning ribs and the positioning notches are engaged with each other, a circumferential misalignment between the main tube and the support unit is corrected.
Abstract:
A waste liquid recovery apparatus includes a container body; a liquid absorbing body which is accommodated in the container body and absorbs liquid discharged as a waste liquid; and a sealing member which seals the container body, wherein a first space into which liquid is discharged from a liquid ejecting head and a second space which links with the outside through a ventilation hole formed in the sealing member are formed in a space closed by the container body and the sealing body, and the first space and the second space are connected with each other at the ventilation hole side.
Abstract:
A cap member according to a first aspect of the invention is a cap member that covers a nozzle area of an ejecting head having a plurality of nozzle openings for ejecting fluid. The cap member includes a cap member body having a bottom portion and a frame portion and an absorbing member being fixed to the bottom portion for absorbing the fluid. The bottom portion is arranged so as to oppose the nozzle area, and the frame portion is provided on a peripheral edge of the bottom portion and coming into contact with the ejecting head. An inner peripheral portion extending along the inner surface of the frame portion is a groove portion, and the height of the groove portion from the bottom portion is lower than the upper surface of the absorbing member over the entire circumference of the frame portion.
Abstract:
A polishing pad which comprises a laminate of an abrasive layer with a cushioning layer. The abrasive layer has a Microrubber A hardness of 75 degrees or higher and a thickness of 0.8-3.0 mm. The cushioning layer comprises an unfoamed elastomer and has a thickness of 0.05-1.5 mm. The abrasive layer has at least two kinds of grooves formed in the surface. One of the two kinds of grooves is first grooves and the other is second grooves. The first grooves each has a groove width of 0.5-1.2 mm, and has a groove pitch of 7.5-50 mm. The second grooves each has a groove width of 1.5-3 mm, and has a groove pitch of 20-50 mm. Each of the first grooves and each of the second grooves are open to side edge faces of the abrasive layer.
Abstract:
A dispensing container with a pump includes a neck, a manual pump of a push-down type disposed in the neck, a push-down head fitted to the top of the pump, and a cap having an attaching cylinder fitted around the neck. A rotary cylinder is disposed on the outside of the attaching cylinder coaxially on central axis. A cover cylinder having a cover wall is disposed coaxially between the attaching cylinder and the rotary cylinder in a manner capable of going up and down under the condition that an elevating system has been established with the attaching cylinder and the rotary cylinder by the rotary movement of the rotary attachment. The cover cylinder is disposed so the push-down head is exposed out of the cover cylinder at its lower-limit position and cannot be pushed down at the upper-limit position of the cover cylinder to prevent contents from being erroneously discharged.
