摘要:
The object is to provide a printing apparatus wherein the rotation of endless printing bands is limited in a manner that keeps excessive rotational force from acting on the endless printing bands 7 themselves, thereby avoiding wear, cracking and other damage, and wherein forcible rotation of the endless printing bands causes idle rotation of selector wheels 5 and puts only moderate load on the endless printing bands. Attention is directed to adoption of selector wheel 5 rotation restricting members of a movable type and to enabling the movable stop members 14 to move when excessive force acts on the selector wheels 5 or the endless printing bands 5. A stop bearing member 15 is provided to abut on elastic sections 14B of the movable stop members 14, and engagement between drive projections 7E and the elastic sections 14B with movement of the endless printing bands 7 enables movement of the movable stop members 14.

A checkpoint restart type computer system which executes a program upon taking a checkpoint periodically for rolling back to a prior checkpoint if an error status is detected during an execution of a program, including a memory for storing a program which includes a plurality of ESD steps between particular two checkpoints, and a processor for executing the program with holding a checkpoint periodically. The processor includes a memory for maintaining a checkpoint image which has been taken during execution of the program. The ESD steps in the program contain at least a designated execution level for the ESD step and an error status detecting code. The computer system further includes a designator for designating the execution level for the program and a classifier for classifying the execution of the ESD steps by comparing the designated execution level and the allowed execution level for the ESD sequence. When an error status is detected during the execution of the program, the designator changes the execution level of the program from a low to a high frequency so as to increase the number of executions of the ESD steps for specifying a particular position of an error status as early as possible.

An electrostatic sorting apparatus having a multistage sorting unit including a plurality of sorting conveyor belts on sorting plates aligned vertically within a cover housing. Each sorting conveyor belt or plate has a trough-like channel formed thereon for sorting a mixture of insulating particles and conductive particles. The particles of the mixture are subjected to repeated cycles of charging with a negative polarity, being attracted to a high voltage electrode, discharging, and dropping downwardly into sorting and recovering hoppers. Thus, the particles are vigorously elevationally moved between the sorting conveyor belt or plate and the electrode up and down and are finally collected in hoppers. The particles are accordingly uniformly agitated in the channel of the sorting conveyor belt or plate. Thus, the mixture is separated into the hopper with an enhanced quality of compost while fine foreign materials mixed therewith are removed from the compost.

The resultant hollow fiber porous membrane of vinylidene fluoride resin has micro-pores of appropriate size and distribution, is excellent in mechanical strength represented by tensile strength and elongation at break and is useful as a water microfiltration membrane.
