Abstract: An aluminum brazing sheet having a multi-layer structure of two layers or more, an aluminum alloy brazing material being located on an outermost surface by being cladded on one surface or both surfaces of a core material, and the aluminum brazing sheet being applied to brazing in which the aluminum brazing sheet is bonded to a member to be brazed made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy without using a flux in a non-oxidizing atmosphere without decompression. The brazing material is made of an Al—Si—Mg—Sn brazing material containing, by mass %, 0.01% to 2.0% of Mg, 1.5% to 14% of Si, and 0.005% to 1.5% of Sn, and in observation in a surface direction before brazing, there are more than 10 Mg—Sn compounds with a circle equivalent diameter of 0.01 ?m or more and less than 5.0 ?m in the Al—Si—Mg—Sn brazing material per 10000 ?m2 field of view.

Abstract: One object of the present invention is to provide a blade for forming ribs that is able to improve wear resistance; in order to achieve the object, the present invention provide a blade for forming ribs that forms ribs either on the surface of a substrate or via an undercoating layer on the surface of a substrate by moving a blade body in a fixed direction relative to a paste film in the state in which comb teeth formed on at least a portion of the periphery of said blade body are penetrated into said paste film formed on the surface of said substrate to plasticly deform said paste film; wherein, the surface of said comb teeth formed on said blade body that makes contact with said paste film is coated with a compound layer in which hard particles are dispersed in a metal.

Abstract: There is described a method of managing information on the release of restriction on use that permits license management even where linkage of a hardware key is limited, without sacrificing the user work efficiency. The method for controlling a release information set for releasing a function from an application disabled status thereof, includes the steps of: instructing an operation for transferring the release information set from a first storage section, in which release information sets corresponding to the plurality of functions are stored, to a second storage section by selecting one of the plurality of functions provided in the apparatus; specifying the release information set to be transferred as instructed in the instructing step; reading out the release information set, specified in the specifying step, from the first storage section; storing the release information set, read in the reading step, in the second storage section.

Abstract: One object of the present invention is to provide a paste that is easily coated, has a comparatively long aging time and is able to maintain the shape of the ribs following plastic deformation; in order to achieve the object, the present invention provides a paste comprising 50-95% by weight of glass powder or glass-ceramic mixed powder, 0.1-15% by weight of a resin, and 3-60% by weight of a plurality of kinds of solvents, wherein each boiling point of the plurality of kinds of solvents differs by 30° C. or more; and, the plurality of kinds of solvents contain one or more low boiling point solvents which are low boiling point solvents having a boiling point from 100° C. to 180° C., and one or more high boiling point solvents which are high boiling point solvents having a boiling point from 190° C. to 450° C.

Abstract: A processing apparatus for a light-sensitive material includes a plurality of processing tanks for processing light-sensitive material; a kit including a container for accommodating a number of solid processing agents used for each processing tank; and solid processing agent replenishing device for replenishing the solid processing agents accommodated in the container into each processing tank. The apparatus further includes a memory for storing an amount of each solid processing agent used for processing a predetermined amount of light-sensitive material; a residual amount detector for detecting a residual amount of each solid processing agent and outputting a used up solid-processing-agent signal when the residual amount of each solid processing agent becomes zero; and a replacement requesting device for requesting the replacement of all solid processing agents in accordance with the used up solid-processing-agent signal of the solid processing agent.

Abstract: An automatic developer for developing a light-sensitive material such as a photographic material.

Abstract: An automatic developing apparatus for developing a photosensitive material includes a processing section, a throughput detector, a processing agent supplier, a water supplier, a calculator, a timer and a controller. The processing section accommodates a processing solution for processing the photosensitive material. The processing solution comprises a solid processing agent dissolved in water. The throughput detector detects a throughput of the photosensitive material through the processing section, and generates detection signals when the throughput becomes a predetermined value. The processing agent supplier supplies the solid processing agent to the processing section, and the water supplier supplies water to the processing section. The calculator calculates an amount of evaporation water evaporated from the processing solution, and the timer generates timer signals when a predetermined time period elapses.
