Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of producing a fiber board characterized in that it comprises the following processes (a)-(f):

Abstract: A collapsible metal tube, comprising: a metal body portion susceptible of plastic deformation, the body portion being sealed at one end; a shoulder portion and a mouth/neck portion connected to the other end of the body portion; and a resin film provided on the inside wall surface of the body portion, the resin film comprising a metal-adhesive thermoplastic resin layer formed by spray-coating the inside wall surface of the body portion with a dispersion of fine spherical particles consisting of a metal-adhesive thermoplastic resin and then heating to integrate the particles. The resin film formed on the inside of the collapsible metal tube is reliable because it is a dense resin film virtually devoid of pinholes, excellent in elongation at break, and free from cracking when folded or deformed, and is excellent in ability of protecting the metal body portion and the contents.

Abstract: The invention provides a fiberboard, as well as its manufacturing method, which comprises lignocellulose long fibers with a fiber length 50 mm or more and resin. The fiberboard of the invention has high mechanical strength and superior dimensional stability. Since lignocellulose-base materials of long fibers are utilized, the fiberboard can save the consumption of precious wood resources.

Abstract: A network input/output device incorporates a no. 1 data switching circuit and no. 2 data switching circuit for connecting a FIFO with a transmission register, a reception register, or both transmission and reception registers, according to values set in a mode register. The network I/O device allows a reduction in the pattern area of VLSIs of the I/O device, and the use of both clock synchronization and asynchronous configurations.

Abstract: A bandsaw machine which has a sawhead assembly in which a flexible endless bandsaw blade is trained around a pair of bandsaw blade wheels to cut a workpiece, with the blade being guided by a guide arm, includes a guide member on the guide arm, for holding the bandsaw blade in a vertical orientation by pushing the bandsaw blade from both sides. A rolling member is mounted on the sawhead assembly and is free to push a side surface of the bandsaw blade with a predetermined force so as to prevent vibration of the blade.

Abstract: A process for peeling a protective film off a thin article such as a silicon wafer is proposed. The film is peeled by sticking an adhesive tape to the protective film on the article and pulling it away from the article. The protective film is peeled only by the adhesive force of the adhesive tape.
