Abstract: A wafer protective sheet 1 is made of a synthetic resin sheet with a thickness of 80 to 130 ?m having a large number of projected parts and recessed parts on its front and rear surfaces. The large number of projected parts and the large number of recessed parts are respectively disposed so that each part is positioned at intersections of lattice stripes, and the projected part and the recessed part are disposed alternately each other. The sheet has such a water-like cross section that the recessed parts in the rear surface match the projected parts on the front surface and the projected parts on the rear surface match the recessed parts in the front surface. The wafer protective sheet 1 has a bending resistance of 30 to 80 mm. The wafer protective sheet 1 of the present invention is sufficiently thin. When the wafer protective sheets are interposed between stacked wafers to protect them, the sheets do not adhere to the wafers.

Abstract: An under-sink type water purifier with a water-tap portion connected to a purified-water outlet of the purifier having a sensor for sensing an object to issue a signal, and a solenoid valve for starting and stopping the discharge of purified water from the water-tap portion in response to the signal. The apparatus is characterized by a control circuit for opening and closing the valve in response to the signal. The circuit is provided with at least one of a first timer for opening the valve at every preset time for a short time, and a second timer for opening the valve for a short time to permit the water-tap portion to discharge the purified water therefrom when the purified water remains confined in the purifier for a predetermined period of time. These timers are selectively used in operation.
