    Abstract: An apparatus for producing a soap cake comprising a mold which has a cavity of prescribed shape, a feed passage for feeding molten soap to the cavity, and means for pushing molten soap remaining in the feed passage at the time of feeding molten soap to the cavity to remove molten soap remaining in the feed passage. One end of the feed passage is a gate, in which a gate pin for shutting the connection between a feed port and the cavity is slidably provided. As the gate pin advances, molten soap remaining in the feed passage is removed in the step of feeding molten soap to the cavity.

  • Patent number: 5151602
    Abstract: A semiconductor relay circuit includes a MOS FET receiving a photovoltaic output generated across a photovoltaic diode array. The photovoltaic diode array is responsive to a light signal from a light-emitting element. A cross gate and source electrodes of a MOS FET is connected a control circuit which is at a high impedance state during the generation of the photovoltaic output but to be at a low impedance state upon disappearance of the output. Additionally, resistors are inserted in series respectively in each of current, one path flowing from the photovoltaic diode array across the gate and source electrodes of the MOS FET and the other path flowing a discharge current from a capacity across the gate and source electrodes of the MOS FET to the control circuit, whereby the setting of rise and fall of circuit output signals can be made easier.
