Abstract: The edit processing includes band deletion processing and band addition processing for correcting the DNA pattern image. Additionally, a concentration graph display indicative of a distribution of concentration of the DNA pattern is provided.

Abstract: A clothes dryer comprising a body having a drying chamber defined for accommodating clothes; a heater provided in the body; a heated air path for supplying dried air heated by the heater to the drying chamber to dry the clothes placed in the drying chamber; a door for closing and opening the drying chamber; a porous member impregnated with an agent; a supporting member provided on the door, detachably holding the porous member and provided with an aperture for supplying the agent held by the porous member into the drying chamber.

Abstract: A clothes dryer having a body with heater therein and a rotatable drying chamber is provided with a dual side rotating bladed heat exchange type fan having in its outer portion a group of grooves; and a partition member having an opening whose inner surface is opposed to the outer surface of said dual side bladed fan for separating paths of heated air and cooling air together with said dual side bladed fan in said body; the partition member has a group of fixed grooves interleaved with the fan rotating grooves to form a labyrinth seal; the fixed grooves extend from a base or the partition member and have a rising portion extending in the heated air path to inhibit the leakage of heated air from the heated air path to the cooling air path and have an opening to provide communication between the heated air and the cooling air.

Abstract: For cutting sheet metal or other work by means of a jet of water containing abrasive particles, an abrasive water jet nozzle assembly is provided to which there are separately supplied highly pressurized water and an abrasive suspension. The abrasive suspension is such that abrasive particles with an average size of up to 100 microns are held in suspension in water. The abrasive suspension is introduced into the ejected water by virtue of a partial vacuum created in the nozzle assembly by the pressurized water. The nozzle assembly directs the resulting mixture as an abrasive water jet against the work for cutting thereof. Preferably, the abrasive water jet is recovered for recirculation back to the nozzle assembly as an abrasive suspension of controlled abrasive concentration. Various constructions of the nozzle assembly and various recovery systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: A device for measuring properties of plasma projects linearly polarized light to an object plasma as incident light, and the light coming from the plasma in response to the incident light is separated into an S-polarized component and a P-polarized component, so that temperature and other properties of the plasma are determined from such S- and P-polarized components.

Abstract: A clothes dryer comprising: a cabinet; a horizontal type rotary drum formed with a circular opening in its end face which is generally perpendicular to the peripheral wall of said drum; a drum supporting disc slidably fitted in the circular opening of said end face to support said horizontal type rotary drum and arranged in and supported by said cabinet generally coextensively with said end face, said drum supporting disc being formed with an air inlet and an air outlet; heater means; and blower means for supplying the hot air, which has been heated by said heater means, into said horizontal type rotary drum through said air inlet and for discharging the air in said horizontal type rotary drum to the outside of said rotary drum through said air outlet.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of soap articles containing dried shapes also formed of soap, comprises the steps of placing on the bottom of a cylindrical frame a supporting base transparent soap which has been cooled to solidification but has not been dried as yet, said base having a height lower than that of said frame; fixedly placing a dried shape(s) of colored soap on said supporting base; pouring in said frame a dough of transparent soap which may or may not be colored, and put into a molten state by heating, followed by cooling thereof to solidification; and removing the thus solidified transparent soap with said supporting base from said frame, followed by drying thereof. Instead of using the base, use may be made of one or plural needles.

Abstract: A boron-treated steel comprises a carbon steel, or a low alloy steel containing 0.15 to 0.85% C, 0.15 to 2.0% Si, 0.3 to 1.5% Mn, not more than 1.0% Cr, not more than 0.020% of P and S each, and unavoidable quantities of Al and Ti not exceeding 0.008% and 0.010%, respectively, and further contains 6 to 30 ppm of acid-soluble boron. The steel produced is less likely to develop cracks and can be produced at substantially reduced costs.
