Abstract:
A cartridge detachable from a printer has a roll paper unit including roll paper, a roller, and flanges, and a separation member used to pull out the roll paper from the roll paper unit. Upon rotating the roll paper unit in a direction to feed out the roll paper, the roll paper is brought into contact with the separation member, thereby pulling out the roll paper from the roll paper unit and feeding out the roll paper to outside the cartridge.
Abstract:
An integrated ink-and-paper cassette (1) mountable to a thermal transfer printer (40) includes an ink-sheet supply unit housing (20) between an opening (30) for ejecting the recording sheet (13) and an ink-sheet take-up unit housing (21). Also, an upper case (10) mainly defining a recording sheet housing (22) is welded to a lower case (11) defining ink-sheet housings when assembled with the upper case (10), in the vicinity of a conveyance path of the ink sheet (12) at which a load is likely applied.
Abstract:
A process for producing a water-soluble polymer, characterized in that an aqueous vinyl monomer solution containing a photopolymerization initiator is irradiated with a light from over the aqueous vinyl monomer solution to thereby initiate polymerization of the vinyl monomer and the water vapor which has generated from the surface of the aqueous vinyl monomer solution in which the polymerization has been initiated is removed from the surface of the aqueous vinyl monomer solution. The water vapor is removed preferably by, e.g., a method in which the water vapor is caused to accompany an inert gas flowing along the surface of the aqueous polymer solution or the water vapor is condensed on a surface of a light-transmitting plate disposed obliquely over the surface of the polymer.
Abstract:
A valve in which a valve disc is slid on a valve seat to open and close a passage. This valve maintains its water-sealing property and handle operability even after the valve device is used continuously for a long time. The valve seat (6) or the valve disc (11) is formed from a resin composition containing 100 parts by weight of polycyanoaryl ether resin and 40 to 165 parts by weight of glass-like carbon having a mean particle size of not greater than 25 mu m. The resin composition may further contain 30 parts or less by weight of fluororesin powder such as PTFE to the resin composition described above. Alternatively, the valve disc (11) is formed from ceramics, a protuberance (12) for sliding the valve disc is formed at the center of the surface of the synthetic resin valve seat (6) facing the valve disc (11), and the diameter of this protuberance (12) is made smaller than the outer diameter of the valve disc (11), so that even when the valve seat (6) undergoes deformation due to the feed water pressure, deformation occurs at only the outer diameter portion of the valve seat (6) and the formation of a gap is prevented between the valve disc (11) and the protuberance (12). Further, the valve device may include a plurality of circumferential grooves formed concentrically on the lower surface of a level holder (14). The lower surface of the lever holder has such a shape that its inner portions are higher than its peripheries so as to hold lubricating oil or lubricating grease in the circumferential grooves.
Abstract:
A microwave strip line filter in which a pair of dielectric bases are superposed one upon another and joined. There is a possibility that the variation of the electrical characteristics of the filter is caused by the misalignment between the resonance electrodes provided on the respective dielectric bases when they are joined. To avoid it, the resonance electrodes (11, 12, 13) on one dielectric base (10) are formed into a pattern of predetermined dimensions, and the resonance electrodes (21, 22, 23) on the other dielectric base (20) are formed into a pattern of smaller dimensions than the resonance electrodes (11, 12, 13). Also, to prevent the bonding agent used for joining the bases from having a bad influence upon the electrical characteristics, the bonding agent (26) is applied in the form of spots to the resonance electrodes (21, 22, 23). Further, to achieve various desired resonance frequency characteristics by the resonance electrodes of the same pattern easily with a high accuracy, the electric bases are made of ceramic materials of different dielectric constants from each other respectively.

Abstract:
A reagent for classifying leukocytes, which enables classification and counting of leukocytes by lysing erythrocytes and acting on leukocytes and which contains at least one surfactant selected from the group consisting of (a) a first group of surfactants of polyoxyethylene anionic surfactants represented by the general formula: R1-R2-(CH2CH2O)n-X (wherein R1 represents alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, R2 represents O, ( alpha ) or COO, represents an integer of 8 to 30, and X represents SO3Na, COONa, OSO3Na or ONa) and (b) a second group of polyoxyethylene nonionic surfactants represented by the general formula: R1-R2-(CH2CH2O)n-H (wherein R1 represents alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, R2 represents O, ( alpha ) or COO, and n represents an integer of 8 to 30). A method of classifying leukocytes into three to five groupes of lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes according to particle analysis methods, such as the RF method or the DC method, using said reagent is also disclosed. The reagent may contain an osmotic pressure increasing agent and a solubilizing agent. This method enables classification of leukocytes into 3 to 5 types and differentiation of normal cells from abnormal cells.

Abstract:
[PROBLEMS] To provide an active energy radiation hardenable skin plaster composition which is liquid at ordinary temperature, having practical crosslinkability or hardenability in the absence of photopolymerization initiator when irradiated with visible light or ultraviolet light, the obtained hardened coating being free from staining, and which excels in various pressure adhesive performances, having appropriate adherence that even when application to the skin and detachment therefrom are repeated, would not cause pain at application site and would not damage the horny layer and further excels in water resistance. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] An active energy radiation hardenable skin plaster composition comprising a compound having two or more maleimide groups (A) and an oily component, or water or a water soluble compound (B), which composition is liquid at ordinary temperature.
