Abstract: Described herein is a technique capable of acquiring, monitoring, and recording the progress of the reaction between a substrate and a reactive gas contained in a process gas in a process chamber during the processing of the substrate. According to the technique, there is provided a substrate processing apparatus including: a process chamber accommodating a substrate; a process gas supply system configured to supply a process gas into the process chamber via a process gas supply pipe; an exhaust pipe configured to exhaust an inner atmosphere of the process chamber; a first gas concentration sensor configured to detect a first concentration of a reactive gas contained in the process gas in the process gas supply pipe; and a second gas concentration sensor configured to detect a second concentration of the reactive gas contained in an exhaust gas in the exhaust pipe.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a spinach line with the novel feature of solid petioles at harvest time. As a result of developing many progeny lines having petioles in which the hollow portion is relatively small over many years, a spinach line having solid petioles at harvest time was constructed.

Abstract: An on-vehicle interface apparatus includes a touch screen and an I/F controller. The I/F controller stores a first message and a second message having a lower urgency level in association with respective events. The I/F controller displays operation switches including operation switches regarding traveling of a vehicle irrespectively of the events on the touch screen, and, in response to occurrence of an event, displays a corresponding message on the touch screen. The I/F controller, in response to detection of a touch operation on a display region of the first message during display of the first message, outputs to the vehicle controller a signal that instructs execution of the driving control corresponding to the first message.

Abstract: A printer is provided to improve the conveying accuracy of a Y-bar, thus improving printed image quality. The printer includes the Y-bar that extends in a first direction above a flatbed on which a medium is mounted, holds an ink droplet ejecting head unit so that the head unit is movable in the first direction, and is held so as to be movable with respect to the flatbed in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The printer includes a drive mechanism that conveys the Y-bar in the second direction, a drive control device that carries out a drive control of the drive mechanism, and a measuring device that directly measures an amount of movement of the Y-bar with respect to the flatbed. The drive control device corrects controlled variables of the drive mechanism based on the amount of movement of the Y-bar measured by the measuring device.

Abstract: A separator 10 includes a separator body 11 and a collector 12. The separator body 11 prevents mixed flow of fuel gas and oxidizer gas. The collector 12 is formed from a metal lath MR in which the angle between the direction of formation of strand portions (through-hole formation portions) for forming through holes in a meshy, step-like arrangement and the direction of formation of bond portions (connection portions) for connecting the strand portions to one another is about 60 degrees. By virtue of this, the thickness of the collector 12 can be increased through reduction in pitch P. Thus, a good gas supply performance is ensured through reduction in pressure loss of introduced gas, and water generated in an MEA 30 can be well drained by capillary action which arises in the through holes.

Abstract: Each of collectors 22 of an electrode structure 20, which partially constitutes a polymer electrolyte fuel cell, is formed from a metal lath MR having a large number of through-holes. A stopping portion 22a in which the through-holes are reduced in diameter is formed at a peripheral end portion of the collector 22. The peripheral end portion of the collector 22 is folded; subsequently, the folded peripheral end portion is pressed, thereby forming the stopping portion 22a. A resin seal portion 23 for sealing introduced fuel gas and oxidizer gas is formed integrally with the stopping portions 22a by insert molding which is performed such that an injected molten resin encloses the stopping portions 22a. The resin seal portion 23 formed integrally with the stopping portions 22a can reliably prevent inflow of the molten resin toward central portions of the collectors 22.

Abstract: A process for producing a printed wiring board-forming sheet comprising a resin sheet having a through hole in the thickness direction and a metal chip inserted in the through hole. The sheet is produced by placing a resin sheet and conductive metal sheet in this order on a die base having a die hole, performing punching from the conductive metal sheet side to form a punched hole in the conductive metal sheet and to form a punched hole in the resin sheet and inserting the punched conductive metal chip in the through hole of the resin sheet whereby the front and back surfaces of the sheet can be electrically connected to each other. If the conductive metal chip is so inserted that its tip protrudes from the surface of the sheet, and if a large number of such substrates are laminated, electrical connection in the thickness direction can readily be made by virtue of the protruded conductive metal chips and a multi-layer board can be readily produced.
