Abstract: A photo film cassette has a spool core about which photo film is wound in a form of a roll. A cassette shell contains the spool core in a rotatable manner. Two flanges have a disk shape, and are secured to respective ends of the spool core, for regulating lateral edges of the roll of the photo film. A circumferential lip is disposed on each flange, is extended toward the opposite one of the flanges, wraps one of the lateral edges of an outermost turn of the photo film of the roll, and prevents the photo film from being loosened. A rim portion is disposed on an circular edge of the circumferential lip confronted with the opposite one of the flanges, to project with a bend away from the spool core. A contact face is disposed on the rim portion, and contacts the one of the lateral edges of the photo film when the photo film is unwound from the spool core or wound back about the spool core. The contact face has a contact range of 0.15-0.8 mm in contacting the one of the lateral edges of the photo film.

Abstract: A photo film cassette includes a spool core, on which the photo film is wound in a form of roll. A cassette shell contains the spool core in rotatable fashion. First and second flanges are respectively secured to ends of the spool core, for regulating positions of sides of the photo film roll. A first ring-like lip is formed integrally with a periphery of the first flange, is projected toward the roll, is contacted on one edge of an outermost turn of the roll, and prevent the roll from being loosened. The first and second flanges are formed from resin in accordance with injection molding. The resin has temperature of thermal deformation being 80° C. or higher under 18.6 kg/cm2, modulus in elasticity in flexure being 13,000-30,000 kg/cm2, surface hardness being 80 or more in Rockwell R-scale, and high fluidity in molds for the injection molding. The first and second flanges have an outer diameter of 15 mm or more, thickness of 0.

Abstract: A coating method for applying a coating composition mainly containing an organic solvent onto a running flexible support 11 by ejecting the coating composition in an oversupply state from a slit 9 under pressure. A back edge top end surface 14 on the upstream side in the direction of running of the support with respect to the slit is set so as to be substantially parallel to the surface of the support. A liquid-detached position in which the coating composition ejected from the slit to overflow the slit is detached from a surface of the support 11 is set so as to be placed on the back edge surface opposite to the support.

Abstract: An apparatus for automatically cleaning surfaces of an application apparatus is disclosed. The invention is characterized in that it includes a basement extending in parallel with the longitudinal direction of an application apparatus used to apply a magnetic dispersion liquid to a flexible carrier, a tracer movable on the basement, a traverser which can be moved from the tracer to a position over the edge surfaces of the application apparatus and be moved vertically relative to the surfaces, and a cleaning head coupled to the traverser at the end portion thereof so that the head can be placed in elastic contact with the edge surfaces.

Abstract: A pressure gauge adapted for use in measuring the pressure of a thixotropic fluid subject to aggregation stagnation in which aggregation of the fluid is prevented by controlling stagnation of a magnetic coating liquid in the vicinity of a pressure sensor, and product quality is improved by removing air mixed into the liquid. An outlet is formed at the vertex of a conical holder. An inlet is formed in the conical surface of the holder at a location offset from the center of the cone defining the holder, which is contained in the outlet. A pressure indicator is mounted in the opening portion in the plane of the cone defining the holder.
