Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to provide a reciprocation switching device for a pump which will solve problems of conventional devices such as that, because coil springs are used for activating by their snap action valve operators or switching operators serving to control the pressure of pump working fluid in relation to reciprocating action of the pump, such devices require the numerous number of parts including spring fitting shafts, the structure to attach such fitting shafts, parts for spring holders, etc.; and that the assembling of those parts is troublesome. A device according to the present invention uses one or two wire springs made into a C-like shape as the springs for the aforementioned purpose and calls for fitting said springs directly between the spring fitting section(s) and the valve operator or the switching operator.

Abstract: A spool type switching valve to be used for the switching operation of a diaphragm pump or a similar device, which simultaneously insures both preventing abrasion of the detent mechanism and obtaining thorough operation of switching the spool. A spool is movably fitted inside a sleeve and is prevented from standing still at a neutral point by a detent mechanism provided at one of its ends. The detent mechanism comprises a spool operator fitted around a shaft section at one end of the spool as one body, a spring holder at the end of the sleeve retains a pair of C-shaped wire springs of a circular cross-section fitted between the spool operator and the spring holder. As the spool passes the neutral point, spring forces snap the spool to the extremity of its range, thereby preventing stopping of the spool in the neutral position. An axial clearance permits the spool operator to begin moving before the spool moves.

Abstract: A printing device of serial type capable of printing characters and symbols in a plurality of different colors on a recording sheet, which is provided with a plurality of character wheels for different colors supported on one and same rotational shaft, each wheel having its own stand-by position different from the other, and a mechanism for selectively shifting either of the character wheels.

Abstract: Enzyme composition having the activities of cellulase laminarinase, xylanase, dextranase, amilase, pectinase and protease which is obtained by culturing Basidiomycetes belonging to the genus Irpex is used for promoting secretion of milk of livestock and improving the quality of the milk.

Abstract: A key top comprises a key top base comprising a side portion and a top portion having a specified color, a colored portion provided at a part of the top portion and having a color different from the specified color of the top portion, and, a protective layer composed of a transparent material having an abrasion resistance and covering at least the colored portion.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for dissolving an organic color-reactive colorless dye in a high concentration in an oil and simultaneously stabilizing the solution therefrom, characterized by acting an organic peroxide on said dye.

Abstract: A push button switch comprises a key top having a recess and a resilient member provided so as to surround the recess of the key top. The resilient member has a projected portion extending therefrom in the direction away from the recess of the key top, and at least the end of the projected portion is formed of conductive material. A contact member is secured to a base plate in opposed relationship with the projected portion. A holder member holds the key top in such a manner that the projected portion of the resilient member is normally spaced apart from the contact member but engages the contact member upon depression of the key top.
