【問 2】[Background Art]
[0002]In recent years, breaking away from fossil fuels has been desired not only inthe energy field but also in the materials field, in pace with increasing
demand for cultivating a recycling society. For instance, as a way of
departing from fossil materials, conventional plastic films used as materials
of printed labels to be placed on packages and containers for foodstuffs andbeverages are being replaced with biomass plastics or paper materials and,moreover, are desired to be materially “carbon neutral”. The term “carbon

neutral” means to contribute neither to increment nor decrement of carbon
emissions to the atmosphere, in terms of measured carbon dioxide emission.
[0003]
Printed labels to be placed on packages and containers of foodstuffs orbeverages, for example, are required to exhibit high water-proofness.
Various processing methods have been known for imparting water-proofness
to paper materials, e.g. laminating the surface of a paper with a film of aplastic such as polyethylene, or forming a water-resistant layer such as aclay coat layer, on the surface of a paper.

【問 3】[Description of the Embodiment]
With reference to the accompanying drawings, a detailed description will begiven hereinunder of a seismic work reporting system embodying the presentinvention.
[0008] Fig. 1 is a block diagram of a seismic work reporting system as anembodiment of the present invention.
[0009] Referring to Fig. 1, an elevator remote monitoring system includes aservice station 3 for remotely performing, via a telephone line 2 as an
example of a communication line, a monitoring operation and control of anelevator 1A as an example of building equipment installed in a customer’sbuilding 1.
[0010]
The customer’s building 1 is equipped with the following units and devices: aremote monitoring unit 1B configured to transmit to the service station 3 anabnormal state signal indicative of the occurrence of an abnormal state withthe elevator 1A and to control the elevator 1A in accordance with a control
signal received from the service station 3, while storing information
concerning, for example, the cumulative number of operations of the elevator,
the number of stops at each floor, and so on; a seismic sensor unit 1C
configured to produce, when a certain seismic intensity is reached orexceeded, a seismic control signal such as for stopping the cage of theelevator 1A at the nearest floor or immobilizing the same: a facsimile unit 1C
installed in a management room or an owner’s room in the building, forprinting image data received via the telephone line; and a personal computer
1E also installed in the management room or the owner’s room andconnected to the telephone line 2, for receiving informational messages suchas e-mails. The remote monitoring unit 1B is connectable to a mobile
terminal 4 held by a maintenance personnel in charge of maintenance workon the elevator 1A, for transmission and reception of signals andinformation.
