Abstract: An electronic component supply body and a method for manufacturing the same, which can suppress generation of wrinkles of an adhesive sheet and is unlikely to cause pickup failure of electronic component chips to occur. The supply body includes an adhesive sheet with an adhesive layer formed with an ultraviolet-curing adhesive, a ring frame bonded onto the adhesive sheet, and electronic component chips bonded onto a first region on the adhesive sheet superimposed with the opening of the ring frame. The second cured portions that are cured by being irradiated with ultraviolet rays are provided in a part of a second region forming a bonded portion between the adhesive sheet and the ring frame. Adhesive strength in the second cured portions in a shearing direction is larger than adhesive strength in a portion of the second region other than the second cured portions.

Abstract: A rice cooker includes an interlock that prevents the user from sliding the cooking pot out of the cooker without first disengaging internal assemblies that would otherwise be damaged. The rice cooker operates in any of three user selectable modes: a fully automatic mode in which the rice cooker measures out a user selected quantity of internally stored raw, unwashed rice, washes the rice, cooks the rice and then keeps the rice warm; a cook and keep-warm in which the cooking pot of the rice cooker is loaded with premeasured and washed rice from an external source and the rice cooker cooks the rice and keeps it rice warm; and a rice warming mode in which the cooking pot is loaded with already cooked rice and maintains it at a serving temperature. A startup routine checks that a pot is installed, that a lid is on the pot, that an upper pot cover assembly is at a required height, that a platform is in its latched position, and that a washer container is in its stowed position.

Abstract: A chemical conversion treatment solution for titanium or titanium alloy which comprises fluoride ions in a concentration of between about 5 to 40 g/l, a nitrate ion to fluoride ion weight ratio between about 0.005:1 to 0.2:1, a sulphate ion to fluoride ion weight ratio of between about 0.02:1 to 0.5:1 at least one metallic ion selected from the group consisting of Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn and Mo in a weight ratio to fluoride ion between about 0.02:1 to 0.5:1, and at least one compound which is organochelate compound in a concentration of between about 0.1 to 2 g/l, a water-soluble organic high polymer in a concentration of between about 0.1 to 10 g/l, or a surfactant in a concentration of between about 0.01 to 3 g/l.

Abstract: An improved method for drawing iron or steel rod subjects the rod to a titanium based conditioning agent prior to application of a dry powder soap lubricant and subsequent to descaling and any phosphating step.

Abstract: An improved solution and process for preparing an article of titanium or titanium alloy for cold forming reduces the peeling of the applied lubricant film. The aqueous solution contains an organic chelating compound, an aqueous organic macromolecular compound and/or a surfactant in an aqueous acidic (pH 1.5-4.5) solution of a fluoride and a soluble compound of magnesium, calcium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, zinc, and/or molybdenum.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for treating aluminum wherein the surface is contacted with a solution containing phosphate, a tannin, titanium and fluoride prior to inking or lacquering. The process produces a coating exhibiting adhesion, color and corrosion resistance comparable to that obtained via conventional chromium-based processes without creating the pollution problems of chromium disposal.
