  • Patent number: 7234592
    Abstract: A cartridge for photographic processing agents, which is formed of containers for photographic processing agents and a storage box for housing the containers in any selected dispositions in the box, in which at least one of the containers is provided with at least one recess on an outer side thereof, and at least one opening is formed on the storage box corresponding to the recess of the container housed in the storage box, and in which the cartridge having the recess in the container and the opening corresponding to recess in the storage box prevents the cartridge from being erroneously loaded to an automatic photo-processor; and a container for a photographic processing agent usable in the cartridge.

  • Patent number: 7040669
    Abstract: A fuel feeding pipe having a first feed oil pipe extending from an oil filler port, a second feed oil pipe projecting from a fuel tank, and a tightening belt for connecting and tightening these oil pipes together, comprising an outer fitting pipe provided to the first feed oil pipe, and an inner fitting portion provided to the second feed oil pipe having low-temperature resisting and ozone resisting seal rings fitted therearound. The fuel feeding pipe is formed in one body by fitting the outer pipe around the inner fitting portion having the seal rings, then tightening the tightening belt fitted over at least the engaged region of the outer fitting pipe and the inner fitting portion. The invention achieves the minimization of a fuel permeation, high hermeticity without influences from various environments, the promotion of efficiency of replacement operation, and the vibration and impact resisting connection of the pipes.

  • Patent number: 5533324
    Abstract: A method for loading a liquid into a container made of a resin comprises the steps of holding a portion of a bag, which is made of a resin film and which is provided with an opening, the portion surrounding the opening, and thereby suspending the bag in a case housing, which is to accommodate the bag therein. A predetermined amount of a liquid is poured through the opening into the bag, which is being suspended in the case housing, and thereafter the opening is closed. After the liquid has been poured into the bag, but before the opening is closed, the case housing is moved up, and the bag is thereby pushed up a predetermined distance, an appropriate amount of air being thus introduced into the bag having been loaded with the liquid. Worsening of the orientation or form of the bag and scratching or flawing of the bag are thus prevented from occurring due to vibrations given to the bag during its transportation, or the like.

  • Patent number: 5020685
    Abstract: In a plastic filler neck cap including therein a receptacle for a pressure control valve and a receptacle for an anti-leakage assembly, a positive-negative pressure valve is compactly constructed in such a manner that the valve body retainer plate is formed into a hat-like configuration including an upper portion with a passing hole at its center, an outer peripheral wall and a spring reception tongue; the valve body is in engagement with the valve body retainer plate whose passing hole sustains a portion of the valve body; the valve body presents a double-disk shape with a smaller upper disk and a larger lower disk having on the upside a peripheral upper ridge and on the downside a lower ridge inside the upper ridge, and further a center communication opening extending through both the disks; the diameter of the negative pressure valve body is predetermined larger than the extension of the lower ridge on the bottom of the valve body, forming a pan-like shape setting the opening side down with a skirt portion
