Abstract: A normally white liquid crystal display is provided with a positively birefringent uniaxial retardation film having a retardation value of from about 100 - 200 nm. The retardation film is provided on one side of the liquid crystal layer, the liquid crystal being sandwiched between a pair of orientation or buffing films which orient the liquid crystal molecules adjacent thereto in predetermined directions. The optical axis of the retardation film is rotated from about 2° - 20°, most preferably from about 6° - 10° relative to the buffing direction on the opposite side of the liquid crystal layer. This rotation of the retardation film optical axis allows for the high contrast ratio viewing zone of the display to be shifted vertically into either the positive or negative vertical viewing region depending upon the direction of rotation of the retardation film optical axis. Alternatively, biaxial retardation films having similar retardation values may be utilizied according to the teachings of this invention.

Abstract: The drafting apparatus in a spinning machine is provided with a top apron and a bottom apron, which are respectively wrapped around two pairs of drive rollers and tensors and are brought into contact with each other. An intermediate bottom roller engages the bottom apron. A weight roller engages the top apron to oppose the intermediate bottom roller and to press the top apron by its own weight toward the bottom apron. A cradle having a lateral face is located to support the top apron. A support shaft has a free end portion on which the weight roller is loosely fitted. The support shaft is cantilevered from the lateral face of the cradle. The weight roller is arranged to be removable in a direction away from the lateral face of the cradle. A restriction keeps the weight roller from shifting toward the free end of the support shaft.

Abstract: Considering the differential pressure ΔP between pressures applied to both faces of a meniscus formation member, the differential pressure ΔP becomes the maximum when an ink supply unit is left standing with the meniscus formation member placed upward. At this time, water head PH of ink attempting to fall due to gravity is applied to the inner face of the meniscus formation member in the same direction as negative pressure PR of a capillary member. Thus, the differential pressure ΔP becomes        ΔP = PR + PH         . The bubble point pressure PB of the meniscus formation member is set greater than the maximum value of the differential pressure,        ΔP = PR + PH         , whereby air does not enter an ink tank through the meniscus formation member.
