Abstract:
A pair of teremps of a knitted structure are bonded to a blank of a shell plate of a film cartridge. A pair of teremps in continuous lengths is conveyed in the longitudinal direction thereof with the piled side of each of the teremps kept in contact with a locator member. The teremps in continuous lengths are bonded to opposite side edges of the blank and then cut to conform to the blank. Before they are brought into contact with the locator members, the teremps in continuous lengths are subjected to a process in which the pile is substantially uniformly oriented rearward at an angle with respect to the direction in which the teremps are conveyed.
Abstract:
A spool for a 35 mm photography film of plastic material with parts of the outer surface of a winding shaft thereof brought into contact with the film being matted. The parts matted have a surface roughness in the range of 5 to 15 Hmax (.mu.).
Abstract:
A packaging machine in which a belt-shaped packaging sheet fed continuously is cut to a predetermined length while being guided and conveyed in a direction intersecting the conveyance direction of articles to be packaged. Position detectors detect the arrival of the top end of said packaging sheet, detect the arrival of each article at a position before the position where said article crosses said packaging sheet and the arrival of the top end of the packaging sheet returned from the feeding limit position by being moved as said article abuts against said packaging sheet and is further conveyed, at a predetermined reverse return position. The detectors are used to generate the necessary control signals for feeding and cutting the packaging sheet.
Abstract:
An apparatus for detecting a surface of a member to be ground in which feelers are disposed on, or in close proximity to, the surface of the member to be ground, a sensor detects the displacement of the feeler as a projection on the member to be ground comes into contact with the feeler when the member to be ground is moved, and the projection is detected by an output signal from the sensor and an amount of movement of the member to be ground. An automatic inspection/grinding apparatus for grinding a projection is also disclosed. Projections and the like on the surface of the member to be ground, such as a color filter, can be detected and ground accurately and simply.
Abstract:
A lens-fitted photographic film unit has a film supply chamber preloaded with unexposed photographic film. A cassette-containing chamber contains a film cassette. The film after exposure is wound on a spool of the cassette. The film unit is provided with a mechanism for exposing the film in a succession of frames. An axial hole is formed in an upper end of the spool. Knurled inner teeth are formed inside the axial hole. A wind-up wheel is mounted on the film unit over the cassette-containing chamber to be externally operable for rotation. A drive shaft on the wind-up wheel protrudes into the cassette-containing chamber, and is received in the axial hole. Knurled outer teeth about the drive shaft mesh with the inner teeth on the spool. The drive shaft and spool will thus mesh with each other in any relatively rotated position thereof, which avoids loss of usable film.
Abstract:
A package for a photographic film cartridge which comprises a paper tube treated with a moistureproofing treatment. The paper tube contains a photographic film cartridge and has moistureproof caps fitted to both end openings of the paper tube. The inside surface of the moistureproof caps is joined to the inside or outside surface of the paper tube by thermal adhesion. In this package, since the package is composed of a naturally decomposable paper tube as the main material, the package can be made compact and lightweight, and waste treatment is easy.
Abstract:
The ink jet method and thermal copying method have been developed as the method of obtaining hard copies in colors from terminals of data systems such as a computer. The inventive thermal recording apparatus can produce copies of clear images without color blurs or mixtures on multi-color heat-sensitive recording materials having a color developing mechanism which allows color development in desired hues. This invention recording head is small in size and low in cost, achieving recording of clear images without color blur at a higher speed.
Abstract:
A running web cutting device in which a vertically movable cutter is driven by a crank mechanism. A reciprocating stand holding an upper cutting edge and lower cutting edge is provided in such a manner to be moved in the direction of advancement of a web by a reciprocating guide. The upper and lower cutting edges are driven through the same crank shaft coupled to a cutter driving motor. A value J (J=J Wo/To where J is the conversion inertial moment of a driving motor including a load, Wo is the rated speed thereof, and To is the rated torque thereof) of said cutter driving motor is represented by J.sub.C while a value J of a web feeding motor driving a web feeding drum is represented by J.sub.F. The cutter driving motor and the web feeding motor are chosen so that J.sub.C smaller than J.sub.F. Pulse generators are coupled to the web feeding motor and the cutter driving motor, respectively, and a pulse thinning-out circuit for controlling a movement speed, in the direction of advancement of said web, of said cutter is provided in a control circuit of the cutter driving motor.
Abstract:
An apparatus for cutting a continuously horizontally moving web into desired lengths comprises a first slider crank mechanism 21 for horizontally reciprocating a first slider 71 mounting relatively reciprocable cutting edges 81, 82 disposed below and above the web, a second slider crank mechanism 22 for vertically reciprocating the upper cutting edge 82 via a second slider 72 to sever the web, and a third slider crank mechanism 23 for horizontally reciprocating a third slider 73 mounting a torque balancing weight 83. All three mechanisms are driven by a common rotary shaft 13, and the angles between the crank arms of the mechanisms and the magnitude of the balancing weight are selected such that the shaft torque is substantially constant over the cutting region whereat the first slider moves at a substantially constant speed approximately equal to that of the travelling web.
Abstract:
An ion selective electrode comprising a support having provided thereon, in sequence, a conductive layer and an ion selective layer, which is characterized by having at least one groove through the conductive layer and covering the surface of the groove with the ion selective layer is disclosed. Half cells or electrodes useful for the measurement of ionic activity of chlorine, sodium, potassium or, carbonate or hydrogen carbonate ions in blood or other aqueous sample liquids can be prepared in an extremely simple manner. The single ion selective electrode element comprising paired ion selective electrodes in accordance with the present invention are electrochemically equivalent. A process for forming the same is also disclosed.
