Abstract: This box assembling and packing system is provided: a first jig which is fixed at a predetermined position and against which a side part of a body of a packing box is thrust; a second jig which is fixed at a predetermined position and against which a flap part and a tuck part of the packing box are thrust; and a robot having two articulated arms. A first articulated arm of the two articulated arms holds and moves the packing box in a flatly collapsed form by a packing box holding mechanism, folds and raises the body of the flatly collapsed packing box into a rectangular tubular shape in cooperation with the first jig, and maintains the folded and raised body of the packing box in the rectangular tubular shape by a packing box rectangular tubular shape maintaining mechanism.

Abstract: A robot and work equipment are disposed near a work table including a work table-side controller and a process planning and designing controller capable of being operated by a user. The work table-side controller executes a work process in which the robot and the work equipment operate in conjunction, by receiving signals carrying identification and state monitoring information from a robot-side controller and the work equipment and then sending these signals to the process planning and designing controller, and by sending operation command signals to the robot-side controller and the work equipment in accordance with the aforementioned work process and then receiving operation status signals from the robot-side controller and the work equipment. Based on the signals carrying the identification and state monitoring information on the robot and the work equipment, the process planning and designing controller plans and designs the aforementioned work process.

Abstract: A lithographic type diffusion transfer developing composition which provides high contrast images having sharp toe-gradation for developing silver halide light-sensitive materials contains at least one amine represented by one of the following general formulae (I), (II) or (III):H.sub.2 N-C.sub.n H.sub.2n -X (I) ##STR1## X, X', R.sub.1, n and m are defined in the specification. The process of developing using such a composition is also disclosed.

Abstract: A printing plate having an improved durability which has a support having an oleophilic surface and a hydrophilic diffusion transfer image-receiving layer containing nucleus substance for the physical development and having between the oleophilic and hydrophilic layers at least one of gelatin or nitrocellulose.

Abstract: Developer compositions for diffusion transfer photographic materials containing amino compounds and imidazole compounds are used in a diffusion transfer photographic process for obtaining litho-type positive images of high contrast and of good short toe effect, the amino compounds being represented by the following formula I and the imidazole compounds by the following formula II:formula I(a) NH.sub.2 --C.sub.m H.sub.2m --Xwherein X represents a hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, carboxyl group or amino group, and m represents a natural number of 0-12, but X represents a hydroxyl group when m is 0, ##STR1## wherein X and X' represent each a hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, carboxyl group or amino group, and m and each represents a natural number of 0-12, but X and/or X' represents a hydroxyl group when m and/or n is 0. ##STR2## WHEREIN Y represents an oxygen atom, --CH.sub.

Abstract: A photosensitive printing plate having excellent reproducibility of an original of continuous tone comprising a support having an oleophilic surface and formed thereon a diffusion transfer hydrophilic image-receiving layer containing nucleating materials for physical development and a photosensitive silver halide emulsion layer, said image-receiving layer containing an alginate or an image-receiving subsidiary layer containing an alginate present between said image-receiving layer and said photosensitive emulsion layer.
