  • Patent number: 8705937
    Abstract: A captured image data management method is disclosed. Coverage direction data are input to a recorder-built-in type image capturing apparatus, and the coverage direction data are recorded to a nonvolatile memory and a record medium. The captured image data are obtained as files. A name of the file recorded on the record medium is automatically assigned based on title information contained in the coverage direction data, and the assigned file name is recorded to the nonvolatile memory and the record medium.

  • Publication number: 20100147282
    Abstract: The heat source 1 comprises a bag 10 and a heat-generating composition 20 containing aluminum powder, calcium hydroxide powder and calcium oxide powder, enclosed in the bag 10. The bag 10 is formed by a packing material made of a base material of nonwoven fabric of which one surface is laminated with a watertight layer. The packing material is punched with a plurality of pinholes and has a water permeable rate of 13 to 81 milliliter/min/1 cm2 measured when head of water is 27 cm. The heat source 1 can satisfy preferable heating conditions including rate of temperature rise of the food, risen temperature of the food, duration of the risen temperature of the food under conditions in which a food heating device is conventionally used. Accordingly, a food heating device using the heat source capable of causing a rapid and stable heat-generating reaction can be provided.

  • Patent number: 7611767
    Abstract: There is provided such a heat-generating body for warming a foot in that a heat-generating composition is used that can retain the shape thereof irrespective of the pressure inside the container bag upon using by application to a foot, a footgear or a sock. The heat-generating body of the invention for warming a foot is characterized in that it contains a heat-generating formed article causing a heat-generating reaction in the presence of air and having a shape retaining degree of 70 or more charged in a container bag constituted with a base material, a covering material and the like. Further a process is provided for producing a heat-generating body for warming a foot in that the heat generation reaction of the heat-generating composition is suppressed to prevent loss due to the heat-generating reaction during production, quality deterioration of the heat-generating composition, and other problems.
