Abstract: A slider for a slide fastener with an automatic stopper, includes a body forming an element guide passage into which fastener elements are insertable, a locking member swingably supported in the body by a pin and having a locking claw which is protrudable from a locking window hole formed in the body to the element guide passage and an urging member configured to urge the locking member so that the locking claw protrudes from the locking window hole to the element guide passage. A pair of lateral plate portions of the cover, which are disposed at both end portions of the pin are respectively provided with crimping protrusions which are abuttable against end faces of the pin and which are arranged at peripheral portions of a through-hole of the pair of lateral plate portions through which the pin penetrates.

Abstract: In a film-forming apparatus according to an aspect, a substrate placed on a substrate placing region passes through a first region and a second region in this order by rotation of a placing table. A precursor gas is supplied to the first region. Plasma of a reaction gas is generated in the second region by a plasma generation section. The plasma generation section includes an antenna that supplies microwaves as a plasma source. The antenna includes a dielectric window member and a waveguide. The window member is provided above the second region. The waveguide defines a waveguide path that extends in a radial direction. The waveguide is formed with a plurality of slot holes that allow the microwaves to pass therethrough from the waveguide path toward the window member plate. A bottom surface of the window member defines a groove that extends in the radial direction.

Abstract: A slider has an upper blade of a slider body having an insert groove of a locking pawl, a temporary engagement portion for which temporary engages and fixes the locking pawl, and a claw hole. The temporary engagement portion is adapted so that, with the locking pawl fixed in position, the position in height of the upper end of the temporary engagement portion is the same as or lower than that of the upper surface of the upper blade. This prevents the temporary engagement portion from being pressed and crushed when the temporary engagement portion is in contact with the tab and so on. As a result, an automatic stop mechanism of the slider can stably function.
