Abstract: A liquid-ejection head unit includes a head, an electric-circuit board, electronic components, and a storage tank. The head includes a frame member and ejects droplets of liquid. The electronic components are mounted on the electric-circuit board and connected to the head. The storage tank stores liquid supplied to the head. The electric-circuit board is disposed between the frame member of the head and the storage tank to form a single multi-layered structure. The electronic components of the electric-circuit board are accommodated in at least one of a first internal space defined by the frame member of the head and the electric-circuit board and a second internal space defined by the electric-circuit board and the storage tank.

Abstract: A separable bottom end stop for a slide fastener comprising a box, a box pin, and an insert pin. Protruding guide portions which protrude onto respective fastener tapes are integrally molded with respective side faces at tape-sides of the box pin and the insert pin via thin guide portions. The separable bottom end stop is formed of polyacetal resin, and a distance d between each outer side face of the box and each of the protruding guide portions and a protrusion height h of each of the protruding guide portions from a surface of each of the thin guide portions when the box pin and the insert pin are mounted into the box satisfy the equation (I): tan−1(d/h) ≧33°, where d≠0. The separable bottom end stop becomes hard to be broken with having excellent durability, despite using polyacetal resin which allows various coloring achieved easily, but is easy to be broken.

Abstract: A slide fastener is disclosed which comprises a pair of stringer tapes each having molded thereon a row of coupling elements. The elements is formed from a thermoplastic resin composition containing 0.01-10 weight % of an organopolysiloxane. The resin composition facilitates separation of the stringers from the mold and movement of a slider on the fastener.

Abstract: A top end stop of one of opposed fastener stringers of a separable slide fastener has an obtusely angled configuration composed of longitudinally continuous and integral first and second half parts. Each of the first and second half parts has a maximum width equal to or slightly smaller than the width of each branch of a Y-shaped guide channel of a slider so that the top end stop can pass through the guide channel branch as it is moved in a C-shaped path. The top end stop has a maximum width, as measured perpendicularly to an inner longitudinal edge of the tape, larger than the width of the guide channel branch, and hence cannot pass through the guide channel branch as it is moved simply in a straight path.
