Abstract: Provided is an aseptic filling packaging machine that includes film feeder (1), plug feeder (2), welding devices (22, and 55), sterilizer (3), and filling packaging device (5). Film feeder (1) feeds strip film (8). Plug feeder (2) feeds plug (7) to a predetermined position of fed film (8). Primary welding mechanism (22), which serves as a welding device, temporarily welds plug (7) to the predetermined position of film (8). Sterilizer (3) immerses film 8 having plug (7), which has been fed from film feeder (1), in a sterile liquid. While forming film 8 having plug (7), which has been fed from sterilizer (3), into a bag shape, filling packaging device (5) fills the formed film packaging body having the plug with content to seal it. In filling packaging device (5), secondary welding mechanism (55) that serves as a welding device completely welds plug (7) to film (8).

Abstract: Filling and packaging machine (10) includes supply pipe (13) for supplying contents into film (10), squeeze rollers (16) for feeding film (1) downward and horizontal seal mechanism (100) for sealing in the contents supplied into film (1). Horizontal seal mechanism (11) includes heating unit (120) having a pair of seal bars for heat-sealing film (1) and cooling/cutting unit (140), placed under the cooling/cutting unit, having a pair of cooling bars for cooling a heat-sealed portion of film 1. Cooling/cutting unit (140) is movable in a vertical direction so that the cooling bars can be positioned between the seal bars while the seal bars are opened.

Abstract: Film supply apparatus (2) has two film holders (22a, 22b) supporting two rolls of film as film (101) on a use side and film (100) on a stand-by side respectively, feed rollers (3) for feeding film (101) on the use side, film holding member (34) holding a leading end portion of film (100) on the stand-by side, sucker (36) pulling back film (100) on the stand-by side upstream in a feeding direction and heater bar (31) heat-sealing two films (100, 101). Sucker (36) attracts film (100) by suctioning and pulls film (100) back to a position where a leading end portion thereof faces heater bar (31).

Abstract: A temperature controlling apparatus that controls the temperature of a temperature-controlling object is disclosed. The temperature controlling apparatus includes an atmospheric coolant circulating line that circulates a coolant through a cooling path arranged at the temperature-controlling object; a heat transfer plate heater that heats the temperature-controlling object; and a coolant discharge part that discharges the coolant remaining in the cooling path when the circulation of the coolant is stopped. When the temperature of the temperature-controlling object is to be controlled to change from a low temperature to a high temperature, the circulation of the coolant is stopped and the coolant discharge part discharges the coolant remaining in the cooling path.

Abstract: A film feeding device etc. in which, even if film rolls in which tapes are applied to joint between films of the rolls are used, an occurrence of a bag making failure caused by the tape is prevented. A film feeding mechanism (10A) has a receiving member (72) for holding the leading edge of a film (1B) of the standby side and a joining sealer (71) for joining films (1A, 1B). A tape (B) applied to the film (1A) on the use side is detected by a sensor (83), and according to the result of the detection, a cutter (81) cuts of the film (1A) at a portion on the downstream side of the tape. Then, the cut film (1A) and the film (1B) of the standby side are joined by the joining sealer (71), and the two films joined are sent as a long film.

Abstract: A partition member partitions off a cooling stage of a refrigerator from a refrigerant container, containing a refrigerant gas condensed by the cooling stage, of a cooling system, and a low melting point metal held in the partition member brings the cooling stage into thermally contact with the refrigerant container. This makes it possible to exchange only the broken refrigerator without stopping the operation of the cooling system.

Abstract: The present invention provides elongated moldings in which the occurrence of unintended curves is prevented and which can be installed while accurately conforming to the shape of the installation area. The molding body (121) of the elongated molding (120) provided by the present invention is formed by joining, in at least some parts in its longitudinal direction, two or more plastic molded members having mutually different mold shrinkage rates; in at least some parts of the molding body consisting of said two or more plastic molded members, two or more curved areas (120a, 120b, and 120c) having mutually different curvatures are formed adjacently to each other in the longitudinal direction; and the configuration within the cross section of the two or more plastic molded members, which can be seen in the cross section of the molding body, varies between two adjacent curved areas among said two or more curved areas.

Abstract: A cooling disk unit is used in a wafer chucking device and comprises first and second heat conducting disks one of which is concentrically superposed on the other in a casing. The first heat conducting disk has a first plurality of radial channels while the second heat conducting disk has a second plurality of radial channels. The first radial channels are connected to the second radial channels at either their inside ends or their outside ends so as to flow a cooling fluid from the first (or second) radial channels to the second (or first) radial channels.

Abstract: In a wafer chuck, a vacuum chucking plate is used as an upper heat conductive plate of a refrigerating plate. A base supports the refrigerating plate with protruding portions which are formed on an upper surface thereof and fixed to a lower surface of the refrigerating plate. The protruding portions form a space between said lower surface of the refrigerating plate and the upper surface of the base. A rubber heater is attached to the lower surface of the refrigerating plate in the space. With this structure, the number of parts is reduced and it becomes easy to manufacture.

Abstract: A transmission apparatus has units to which main signals are input for subjecting these main signals to predetermined processing and then transmitting them. One of these units is a master unit and the others are slave units and they are interconnected by a clock cable and processor-to-processor cable. Each slave unit detects a synchronization status message that has been inserted into a main signal input from a line and notifies the main unit of this synchronization status message via the processor-to-processor cable. Using synchronization status messages acquired from the slave units and a synchronization status message that has been inserted into a main signal input thereto, the main unit obtains the synchronization status message indicative of the best quality level and adopts, as a master clock, a clock extracted from the main signal into which this synchronization status message has been inserted.
