  • Publication number: 20110084968
    Abstract: A division number that defines the number of divided straight lines representing a circular graphic pattern is registered beforehand in a division number table in relation to a radius r of the circular graphic pattern. Further, data usable to calculate X-coordinate and Y-coordinate values of endpoints of respective divided straight lines are registered beforehand in an endpoint table in relation to a straight line division number N. Accordingly, if a graphic pattern to be drawn is a circular graphic pattern, it is unnecessary to approximate an outline (curve) with Bezier curves and each division point (endpoint) of divided straight lines can be directly and quickly obtained using the trigonometric function.

  • Patent number: 7758724
    Abstract: A bulky, water-disintegratable cleaning article is formed of water-disintegratable paper impregnated with 100% to 500% by weight of an aqueous agent. The water-disintegratable paper is a substantially water dispersible fibrous sheet containing a water soluble or swellable binder. The water-disintegratable paper has a great number of protrusions and depressions formed by embossing and has a basis weight of 30 to 150 g/m2. The bulky, water-disintegratable cleaning article has a thickness T1 of 1.0 to 3.0 mm under a load of 0.3 kPa and a thickness T2 of at least 0.9 mm under a load of 1.0 kPa.

  • Patent number: 7614110
    Abstract: A wet cleaning sheet 1 has a liquid retentive sheet 12 made of a fibrous material or a cellular material and impregnated with a predetermined amount of a detergent, etc., a liquid impermeable sheet 11 disposed on one side of the liquid retentive sheet 12, and a liquid gradual-releasing sheet made of a fibrous material and less air permeable than the liquid retentive sheet 12 disposed on the other side of the liquid retentive sheet 12. The liquid impermeable sheet 11 has a bag shape with openings 13 on one side thereof. The liquid retentive sheet is held in the bag and releases the detergent, etc. through the openings 13. The liquid gradual-releasing sheet has an air permeability of 0.05 to 6 m/kPa·s thereby to control the gradual release of the detergent, etc.

  • Patent number: 6514382
    Abstract: A process for producing bulky paper comprising the steps of transferring a fiber web (2) having a water content of 50 to 85% by weight to a patterning zone having a perforated patterning net (31) revolving along a suction unit; patterning the fiber web (2) in conformity to the perforated patterning net (31) by sucking the fiber web (2) which is held on the perforated patterning net (31) while applying 5 kcal/kg or more of heat to the fiber web (2) in a heat application zone simultaneously with or before or after the sucking of the fiber web (2); and then drying the fiber web (2) in a drying zone to obtain patterned bulky paper (3).
