The control unit includes a transfer control unit controlling an operation of the transfer unit, a transfer order setting unit setting a transfer order of substrates to the processing chambers, an accumulation unit for accumulating a film thickness of a formed thin film or the number of processed substrates after completion of previous cleaning or previous pre-coating in the processing chambers, a processing chamber priority determination unit for determining priority of processing the substrates in the processing chambers based on predetermined rules, and an execution instruction unit for executing conditioning in the processing chambers.

Abstract: The substrate processing apparatus includes: a plurality of processing modules; a transfer mechanism; a controller; and a setting unit. The processing module processes with respect to the substrate. The transfer mechanism transfers the substrate ejected from the transfer container. The controller outputs control signals for transferring the substrate to the plurality of processing modules along a previously set transfer path through the transfer mechanism sequentially, and for processing with respect to the substrate in the processing module of a transfer destination based on a processing recipe in which a processing order and a processing condition are set. The setting unit sets a content of a non-recipe operation except for operations set in the processing recipe and a performing timing for performing the non-recipe operation by a control operation of the controller every processing module. The non-recipe operation is performed with respect to the processing modules.

Abstract: A syringe includes a syringe barrel including: a liquid drug discharge portion on a distal end of the barrel, an opening on a proximal end of the barrel, and a body portion for storing a liquid drug; a gasket located in the syringe barrel; and a plunger including: a shaft inserted in the syringe barrel from the opening, and a pressing portion located on a proximal end of the shaft, the pressing portion being pushable by a thumb to slide the gasket toward the liquid drug discharge portion. The syringe barrel further includes a brim-shaped finger hooking portion, and a sleeve-shaped gripping portion.

Abstract: A syringe container includes a cylindrical syringe including a distal end portion having a discharge opening for discharging a liquid, a proximal end portion, and a side peripheral section connected to the distal end portion and the proximal end portion; an attachment member configured to be attached to the distal end portion and having an outer radius larger than an outer radius of the side peripheral section; a container body including a bottom portion and a peripheral wall portion extending upward from a periphery of the bottom portion; and a syringe holding section configured to be placed within the peripheral wall portion so as to face the bottom portion.

Abstract: A gasket configured so that a pusher having a male screw thread on the outer periphery of its tip is connected to the gasket through the male screw thread and so that the gasket slides within a syringe outer tube when the pusher is operated in the longitudinal direction. The gasket includes: a gasket body having a hollow section and a female screw thread in the inner peripheral section of the hollow section engaged by the male screw thread; and projections on the outer peripheral section of the gasket body extending circumferentially of the outer peripheral section and axially arranged in spaced relation to each other. When the gasket is not yet inserted into the syringe outer tube, a screw thread located in a portion on the inner side of and in direct proximity to the projection has a smaller height than a screw thread located in the remaining portion.

Abstract: A storage control apparatus for controlling a storage apparatus including inside a casing thereof one or more storage units and two or more fans for cooling the storage units includes a processor. The processor is configured to obtain abnormality information regarding abnormalities in access in each of the storage units. The processor is configured to switch a control state between a first control state and a second control state. The first control state corresponds to a first combination of operation modes of the fans. The second control state corresponds to a second combination of operation modes of the fans. The second combination is different from the first combination. The processor is configured to detect, among the fans, a first fan that is related to an abnormality in the storage units on basis of first abnormality information for the first control state and second abnormality information for the second control state.

Abstract: A prefilled syringe includes: a syringe barrel including a syringe barrel body and an outer barrel; a cap; a gasket; and a plunger which allows the gasket to slide by pressing a press portion located on the base end of a shaft to discharge a drug solution inside the syringe barrel body. The outer barrel has a window and a mask which hides the inside of the outer barrel on a wall thereof. A part of the shaft has a mark which has a color different from the color of other parts of the plunger. The mark is covered with the mask and is not visually recognizable through the window before discharge of the drug solution. The outer peripheral surface of the mark is visually recognizable through the window along with movement of the plunger when the discharge of the drug solution is completed.

Abstract: A liquid injector comprises a contact member comprising a tube body including an opening located at a distal end of the contact member; an inner structure body comprising: a cylindrical main body; and a hollow needle, wherein the inner structure body is movable to (i) a first position at which a needle tip is located proximal of the opening, and (ii) a second position at which the needle tip is located distal of the opening; and a regulating member detachably mounted on the inner structure body, including a fixing portion to be fixed to the contact member at the second position. When the inner structure body moves to the second position from the first position and returns to the first position again, the regulating member is fixed to the contact member with the fixing portion at the second position, separated from the inner structure body, and stays at a position at which the regulating member covers at least part of an area of the opening.
