Abstract:
A processing liquid supplying apparatus including a reservoir containing an additive to be added to a liquid flowing through a passage connected at one end to a liquid supply source and at another end to a processing apparatus; an injection pump for injecting the additive into the passage; a weight measuring unit for measuring the weight of the reservoir and converting the weight into an electrical signal at a predetermined interval while the liquid flows in the passage and the additive is injected; a deciding unit for receiving the electrical signal from the weight measuring unit and deciding whether the measured value of the weight of the reservoir is being reduced at a predetermined rate; and a warning unit for issuing a warning that injection is improper when it is decided by the deciding unit that the measured value of the weight is not being reduced at the predetermined rate.

Claim (Index 2):
The processing liquid supplying apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the deciding means calculates an inclination angle of a linear function straight line based on a plurality of measured values of the weight by use of a least squares method at a predetermined time interval, and decides that the measured value of the weight is not being reduced at the predetermined rate when the inclination angle representing the reduction rate comes out of a predetermined range.
