Abstract: A valve sleeve 56 which opens and closes a gate 35 is provided on a stationary
mold 21. When the mold is closed, a core pin 81 provided on a movable mold 22 engages
into the valve sleeve 56. Consequently, a cylindrical gate 35 which opens into a product
cavity 23 at a position corresponding with the periphery of a hole of a molded product is
formed. The engagement between the core pin 81 and the valve sleeve 56 prevents core
deviation of the valve sleeve 56 by resisting resin pressure and the like. As a result, when
manufacturing a molded product with a hole, the product cavity can be filled evenly with
the molding material, and a highly precise and high quality molded product can be
obtained.

Abstract: The invention provides for the removal of impurities from treatment fluid including a base liquid and a variety of impurities contained in the base liquid by conveying the treatment fluid to at least one preheating separating device, including a preheating heat exchanger and a separator unit, before the admixture of a carrier gas to the treatment fluid. The treatment fluid is preheated by the preheating heat exchanger to a temperature below the boiling temperature of a base liquid so that the liquid impurities with lower boiling temperatures than the base liquid are evaporated and expelled thermally, whereby the evaporated and expelled impurities are separated in the separator unit of the preheating separator device. The treatment fluid is then evaporated and separated from impurities having a higher boiling point than the base liquid.

Abstract: LEDs 5 serving as light sources are arranged so as to face an incidence surface 4 of a light guide plate 3. Light emitted from the LEDs 5 is incident on the incidence surface 4 of the light guide plate 3 to enter the light guide plate 3 to be propagated through the light guide plate 3. When the angle of incidence of the light on an emission surface 6 of the light guide plate 3 is a critical angle or less while the light is propagated, the light leaves the emission surface 6. On at least one of the emission surface 6 of the light guide plate 6 and a surface 10 opposite to the emission surface 6 of the light guide plate 6, a large number of prism protrusions 12 extending in parallel to such a direction that a distance from the incidence surface 4 increases are formed along the incidence surface 4. A side-face side portion 10b of the prism protrusions 12 is formed so as to have a height gradually decreasing as a distance from the incidence surface 4 decreases. With this construction, even if the LEDs are used as light sources, abnormal emission can be suppressed in the vicinity of the incidence surface of the light guide plate, and the luminance of exiting light can be uniform.
