Abstract: A method for producing a polyoxyalkylene derivative including: step (A) in which a polyoxyalkylene derivative having hydroxyl group(s) is reacted with a phthalimide derivative in the presence of an azo reagent and a phosphine reagent; step (B) in which the phthalimide groups of the compound obtained in step (A) are deprotected using a compound having a primary amino group; and step (C) in which impurities derived from the phthalimide derivative and the deprotection reagent are removed by adsorption or extraction.

Abstract: A method of producing an indwelling needle assembly formed by assembling an inner needle having a point only at its tip, an inner needle hub fixed to the base end of the inner needle, a hollow outer needle through which the inner needle is insertable, an outer needle hub fixed to the base end of the outer needle, and an elastic seal member on the outer needle hub effecting sealing when the inner needle is withdrawn. The method involves: inserting the inner needle into the seal member to set the inner needle to an inserted state; applying, in the inserted state, lubricant to the outer peripheral surface of at least that portion of the inner needle which protrudes from the seal member; and axially reciprocating at least one time the inner needle relative to the seal member to cause the lubricant to penetrate the inside of the seal member.

Abstract: An indwelling needle assembly has a hollow outer needle, an outer-needle hub fixed to the base end of the outer needle, an inner needle inserted into the outer needle, an inner-needle hub fixed to the base end of the inner needle, a tube connected to the base end (or a side section) of the outer-needle hub so that the inner cavity of the tube is communicated with the inner cavity of the outer needle, and a protector that, when the inner needle is removed from the outer needle, covers at least the point of the inner needle and disconnectably connected to the outer-needle hub. A finger hold is formed in a projecting manner on a protector cover of the protector, and the finger hold is pressed by a finger to move the outer needle in the direction of its tip relative to the inner needle.

Abstract: A process for producing an exterior member/seal member assembly includes: a first step of moving a slide core to protrude into a major cavity defined between first and second dies and, and injecting a hard synthetic resin into an exterior-member forming cavity partitioned in the major cavity; and a second step of retracting the slide core and injecting a soft synthetic resin into a seal-member forming cavity which is a remaining portion of the major cavity. An outer-seal-lip forming portion is connected to an outer end of the seal-member forming cavity; a recess-shaped step is formed on one side face of the slide core and adapted to define an inner-seal-lip forming portion leading to the seal-member forming cavity between the step and an inner surface of a guide bore in the second die when the slide core is retracted; and the soft synthetic resin is filled into the outer and inner-seal-lip forming portions 15 and 16 at the second step.

Abstract: A gasket for use in a cylindrical alkaline-manganese dioxide cell is molded by injecting a molten resin into a mold assembly having a male mold having an injection gate formed in a cylindrical space and a projection formed in a narrow space and of which a side facing the cylindrical space is chamfered or curved, and a female mold having at least any one of an eject sleeve or ejection pin. The gasket is used to seal an opening of a can of the cylindrical alkaline-manganese dioxide cell. In the gasket, the boundary between a thin portion and hob portion thereof is chamfered or curved and the boundary between the thin and diaphragm portions is formed like a generally vertical edge.

Abstract: In a document information processing apparatus handling a large amount of documents, when a document is registered, retrieval data for document retrieval is created for each registered document. Moreover, for each registered document, there is produced an access control table in which information indicating accessibility of groups including users as document retrievers for the document is registered. When a user desires to retrieve a document, accessibility of the user as the retriever is determined in accordance with the access control table for documents retrieved with retrieval data.

Abstract: A document management system a high extendability, flexibility, and stability capable of solving a problem that, as an agent-oriented paradigm system extends, the number of agents increases and indefinite factors increase. In the system configuration with an object execution environment implemented with an object-oriented function and an agent execution environment implemented with an agent-oriented function, a unit for changing an agent into an object is provided for using the agent execution environment as the object execution environment. With this configuration, a system developer can use the merits of both the object- and agent-oriented paradigms by implementing a function necessary for stable operation by an object and a function with high change occurrence frequency by an agent.

Abstract: A facsimile automatic delivery system which delivers documents which are managed in a hierarchical structure, by using a facsimile device to destinations indicated in a destination list. A transmission management editing unit produces and manages transmission management information in which transmission results such as transmission completion and transmission incompletion are managed in accordance with the destination list and in the hierarchical structure. A retrieval unit retrieves a document to be transmitted from a filing device, on the basis of the transmission management information supplied from the transmission management editing unit. A data conversion unit converts the document which is to be transmitted and obtained as a result of the retrieval, into a form which can be facsimiled. A facsimile transmission unit transmits the converted data to a destination indicated in the destination list.
