Abstract: A turret punch press and a die set exchange device for the press are disclosed. The punch press includes a turret carrying die sets in die set attaching areas, and a die set exchanging device having a plurality of housings on a carriage, which moves horizontally between the turret and a die storage section to take out and charge die sets with the turret and the die set storage section to exchange the die sets for the next use.

Abstract: In a work table apparatus for a plate material processing machine, a group of work supporting belts each extending in a work feed direction and divided in the direction perpendicular to the work feed direction are arranged so as to form a work table surface separated into front and rear support portions on both sides of a plate material processing section, and the work supporting belts are driven in the work feed direction in synchronism with the movement of the plate material to be processed. Therefore, no relative displacement is produced between the work support portions of the work supporting belts and the plate material to be processed. Thus, punched products of small size can be supported securely without damaging the microjoint portions of the processed products, scratching the plate material, and producing sound noise.

Abstract: 6-[[3-[4-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl)propyl]-amino]-1,3-dimethyluracil can be used as a therapeutic agent for urinary obstruction.

Abstract: A container packaging having a flanged container, and a cover member with which the container is tightly closed by heat sealing at the flange after being filled with a content stuff. This packaging can be easily opened to take out the content by separating the cover member with a human hand force in such a manner that as an end of the cover member is pulled upward, ply separation of a cohesion-destructive plastic layer progresses, or a portion of an outer peripheral threadlike protrusion reduced in thickness is broken and ply separation of cohesion-destructive plastic layer thereafter progresses to the position of an inner peripheral threadlike protrusion, and a portion of this protrusion reduced in thickness is broken.

Abstract: A method for treating urinary obstruction by administering a 2-(4-phenyl-1-piperazinylalkyl)aminopyrimidine derivative represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.3 may be the same or different and independently represent hydrogen, halogen, an amino group, a hydroxyl group, a straight or branched chain lower alkyl group, a straight or branched chain lower alkoxy group, or a straight or branched chain hydroxy-lower alkyl group, R.sub.2 represents hydrogen, halogen, a carboxyl group, a straight or branched chain lower alkyl group, a straight or branched chain lower alkylcarbonyl group, or a straight or branched chain lower alkyloxycarbonyl group, R.sub.4 and R.sub.

Abstract: An optical fiber drawing apparatus which includes a heating furnace which fuses a forward end of an optical fiber preform for drawing an optical fiber, and a screening portion which applies tension to the optical fiber through in-line, for guarantee of its strength. The screening portion further includes a suction device disposed along a passage of the optical fiber running through it for sucking in the optical fiber.

Abstract: A process for producing an azo pigment, which comprises coupling an aromatic diazonium compound with 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid and at least one binaphthol and optionally, laking the resulting pigment.

Abstract: A holding device for mounting an electronic component on a printed circuit board, is made up of an elastic plate member formed into a shape having a generally U-shaped cross section to provide a channel for receiving said electronic component therein. Thus the elastic plate member includes a pair of side plate portions for holding the electronic component therebetween. Each of the side plate portions is provided with a slot for receiving a part of a flange formed on a casing of the electronic component and a lug which is to be bound into the printed circuit board by a soldering process. By the use of this holding device, an electronic component which usually requires manual work is mounted on the pc board by an automatic soldering process.

Abstract: Novel 1-phthalazone derivatives of the following formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are as defined in claim 1, and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof; a process for production thereof; a pharmaceutical composition containing said compound; and a method for treating a thrombotic disease using said compound.

Abstract: Novel 3-aromatic moiety substituted-4(3H)-quinazolinone derivatives useful as a vasodilators, hypotensive and antiatherosclerotic agents having the formula of ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and Q are as defined in the accompanying specification or its acid addition salt; and a process for producing the same.

Abstract: Vent gas containing disagreeable odor components consisting mainly of phenolic substances evolving from foundries using shell molding sand containing phenol resin as a binder is efficiently wet-treated by scrubbing the vent gas with an aqueous absorbent solution, to which a ferrous salt and hydrogen peroxide are added so that a ferrous ion concentration may be at least one-seventh of a hydrogen peroxide concentration, thereby making an oxidation-reduction potential of the aqueous absorbent solution have at least a value of (540 - 60 .times. PH value) mV, wherein the PH value is 5 or less.
