  • Patent number: 10576772
    Abstract: A gravure printing roll that enables printing of fine dots with a size close to that of cells and enables printing on a print subject, such as a printing substrate, without changing the appearance of the print subject. The gravure printing roll includes: a gravure printing roll body; and cells formed in a peripheral surface of the gravure printing roll body. Each of the cells has an opening with a ratio between a dimension in a circumferential direction of the gravure printing roll body and a dimension in an axial center direction of the gravure printing roll body (dimension in the circumferential direction/dimension in the axial center direction) being 1.15 to 7, and have an opening area of 3900 ?m2 or smaller.

  • Patent number: 6513837
    Abstract: A device for coupling pipelines for running cryogenic liquid has: a pair of flanges which are pierced by coupling units respectively and which support the coupling units with the coupling units freely approaching and separating from each other and which form compartments around the coupling units; a pair of inner cover units which open and shut the insides of the coupling units; a pair of outer cover units which open and shut the insides of the compartments of the flanges; and purge lines for purging the insides of the compartments. The process of coupling pipelines by this device has the steps of: opening the outer cover units with the insides of the coupling units shut by the inner cover units; coupling the flanges to each other; purging the inside of a compartment which is formed in the flanges; opening the inner cover units; and coupling the coupling units to each other with the coupling units isolated from the outside air.

  • Patent number: 4789293
    Abstract: A system wherein a contractor of a rental safe-deposit box can privately obtain, handle and restore his own box in the fire-proof safe room. The system includes an automatic article retrieval and storage unit located within the safe room and having contractors' safe-deposit boxes. A plurality of private compartments for contractors' use are disposed separately from the safe room and are connected to the retrieval and storage unit by conveyor devices extending through a safe room wall opening having a fire-proof door. Each private room includes a data input terminal device and a handling table. When a contractor operates the terminal device to input his identification code, his own rental safe-deposit box is automatically extracted onto the handling table from the safe room.
