Abstract: A saw blade includes a group A (group A1 [=straight tooth+the odd number of set teeth]+group A2 [=straight tooth+the even number of set teeth]) and a group B (group B1 [=straight tooth+the odd number of set teeth having opposite set-bending sides to those in the group A1]+group B2 [=straight tooth+the even number of set teeth having opposite set-bending sides to those in the group A2]). Wide and narrow set teeth are arranged so that a max/min ratio of the number of pitches between the narrow set teeth having identical set-bending side and set width is 1.8 or less, and a max/min ratio of the number of pitches between the wide set teeth having identical set-bending side set width is 2.7 or less.

Abstract: In the process of holding a non-toothed section of a band saw blade between a fixed insertion block and a movable insertion block included in a band saw blade guide device, the movable insertion block is moved while a return allowing unit included in an insertion block moving unit is held in a returnable state, the insertion block moving unit configured to move the movable insertion block toward the fixed insertion block. The band saw blade is firmly held between the fixed insertion block and the movable insertion block. Thereafter, the entirety of the insertion block moving unit, including the return allowing unit, is fixed in an immovable state by a mechanical fixing unit.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a bandsaw blade provided at the top of the teeth with cutting tips made of a hard material, includes the steps of: offsetting to the left and right saw teeth constituting left and right offset teeth; forming the saw teeth constituting the left and right offset teeth to a smaller tooth height than that of the saw teeth constituting straight teeth; and grinding cutting tips provided to the top of the left and right offset teeth subsequent to the offsetting step, and machining the edge lines at the top of the left and right offset teeth so that the lines are orthogonal to the travel direction of a bandsaw blade and the cutting direction of the bandsaw blade.

Abstract: A method of preventing a tooth from continuously breaking in a band saw blade, comprises the steps of: moving the band 5 saw blade to a longitudinal direction and moving the band saw blade to a cutting direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the band saw blade so as to cut a work; bringing a projecting portion disposed at a rear position of a surface of relief at the back of a tip in a saw tooth broken into contact 10 with a bottom portion of a cutting groove in the work when the tooth breaking is generated in the saw tooth of the band saw blade; and limiting a cutting amount of the following saw tooth, thereby preventing the following saw tooth from breaking.

Abstract: Concave/convex portions are consecutively formed on a back of a band saw blade. The concave/convex portions include concave portions engageable with and disengageable from a backup guide of a band saw guide unit, and convex portions adjacent to the concave portions. A length of each of the concave/convex portions is configured to be equal to or smaller than four times a maximum pitch of a tooth top of each tooth.

Abstract: [Problem]A compound useful for the prevention and/or treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma, and a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound as an active ingredient are provided. [Means for Solution]The present inventors have made extensive studies on the pharmacological actions of naturally fermented materials, and as a result, they have found that a cyclic depsipeptide compound derived from a soil bacterium belonging to the genus Chromobacterium which is collected in Okutama-machi, Tokyo has both an inhibitory action on airway contraction and an inhibitory action on airway inflammation, and thus, is useful as an agent for preventing or treating COPD or asthma, thereby completing the present invention.

Abstract: A fuel injection system is equipped with a high-pressure supply pump driven by an output of an internal combustion engine to supply fuel to an accumulator, a low-pressure supply pump driven by a power source other than the engine to suck the fuel from a fuel tank and supply the sucked fuel to the high-pressure supply pump, and a pressure regulator working to regulate the pressure of the fuel supplied from the low-pressure supply pump to the high-pressure supply pump. The system also includes an abnormal pressure detector working to monitor a preselected parameter that bears a correlation to the energy held by the fuel at an inlet of the high-pressure supply pump to detect whether a pressure of the fuel at the inlet of the high-pressure supply pump is in an abnormal level or not without monitoring it directly.
