Publication number: 20150178801Abstract: A sales management support system includes a first server, and a second server that is connected to the first server through a network, and installed in a store. When selling a drug/food to a customer, the second server compares contraindication-related ingredient information corresponding to the drug/food that is sold to the customer with the contraindication-related ingredient information corresponding to the drug/food purchased by the customer in another store based on the contraindication-related ingredient information stored in a second server-side storage section, and purchase history information transmitted from the first server in response to request information, and generates contraindication information corresponding to the comparison result, the contraindication information indicating contraindications to the drug/food combination, or precautions against the drug/food combination.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2014Publication date: June 25, 2015Applicant: Seiko Epson CorporationInventors: Hideki OKADA, Shinya MOMOSE, Daisuke MATSUMOTO, Akio ITO

Patent number: 7524432Abstract: A method of forming a metal pattern comprising forming a metal film having a lower layer made of a metal and an upper layer made of a metal different from the metal of the lower layer, forming a resist film having a predetermined pattern on the upper layer, and patterning the metal film by etching the metal film using the resist film as a mask. Here, patterning the metal film comprises etching the upper layer, immersing the resist film and the upper layer in a pretreatment liquid containing a nonionic surfactant after the first etching process, and etching the lower layer after the immersing process.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2007Date of Patent: April 28, 2009Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventors: Shinya Momose, Kazushige Hakeda

Patent number: 7332034Abstract: To provide a coating apparatus, which can surely prevent a coating solution from spreading, to simplify a manufacturing process and reduce the manufacturing cost and provide a coating method using the same. The coating apparatus includes a holding table holding a plate having a through hole penetrating in a thickness direction; and a coating head including a slit-shaped nozzle orifice which discharges a coating solution, the nozzle orifice being opposed to a coating surface opposite to a holding surface held on the holding table. The coating apparatus applies the coating solution to the coating surface of the plate by moving the plate and the coating head relative to each other in an in-plane direction of the coating surface. In addition, the coating apparatus includes coating preventing means, which prevents the coating solution from entering the through hole of the plate.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2004Date of Patent: February 19, 2008Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventors: Takuya Miyakawa, Shinya Momose, Takayuki Suzuki

Publication number: 20060126050Abstract: A substrate holding device comprises a holding table for holding a substrate, heating means for heating the holding table, and attraction means for causing the substrate to be attracted onto the holding table. When the substrate which has warped is placed on the holding table heated by the heating means, the attraction means causes a plurality of regions of the substrate to be attracted and held with different timings in accordance with the amount of a decrease in warpage of the substrate due to heat of the holding table.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2005Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventor: Shinya Momose
