The present invention provides a composition that has an excellent hardness adjustment action, can be used as a solidifying agent for various cosmetics, and when added to cosmetics, can impart those cosmetics with excellent shape retention properties, an oil oozing suppression effect during use, a favorable texture and good storage stability, and also provides an oily solid cosmetic to which the composition has been added. Specifically, the invention provides a solid wax composition containing a component (A): candelilla wax, and a component (B): a monoester having a total of 40 to 48 carbon atoms, wherein the mass ratio between the component (A) and the component (B) in the solid wax composition satisfies component (A):component (B)=45:55 to 95:5, and the monoester is a monoester of a monovalent fatty acid and a monohydric alcohol.

Solid wax composition and solid oily cosmetic

A test apparatus includes a test head including a plurality of test boards for applying a test pattern to a device under test, a main frame for controlling a test sequence by the test head, and a fiber optic cable unit including a plurality of flat cables for optically coupling the test head and the main frame, a plurality of fiber optic cables, a dam for coupling the fiber optic cable unit and the plurality of fiber optic cables, a circumferential difference absorption apparatus for absorbing the difference in circumferential length between the plurality of flat cables of the fiber optic cable unit, and a cable guide unit for bending and holding the fiber optic cables coupled to the test board of the main frame.

Test apparatus and cable guide unit

A test apparatus including an optical coupler for optically coupling a main frame and a test head is provided. The optical coupler has a plurality of optical fiber cables, a cable storage chain for bundling a stored portion except for a non-stored portion in a part of the test head side and a non-stored portion in a part of the main frame side of the plurality of optical fiber cables and storing the same, a test head side cable storage unit provided at the boundary between the non-stored portion and the stored portion of the plurality of optical fiber cables on the test head side and being capable of adjusting a length for storing therein the non-stored portion on the test head side and a main frame side cable storage unit provided at the boundary between the non-stored portion and the stored portion of the plurality of optical fiber cables on the main frame side and being capable of adjusting a length for storing therein the non-stored portion on the main frame side.

Test apparatus, optical coupler and method of manufacturing same

The present invention provides a test apparatus which comprises: a test head which applies a test pattern to the electronic device; a main frame which includes multiple frame-side connectors and which supplies control signals to the test head via the frame-side connectors; and a cable unit which provides optical connection between the frame-side connectors and the test head, and which transmits the control signals to the test head. With such an arrangement, the cable unit comprises: multiple optical fiber cables which transmit the control signals; multiple unit-side connectors which are provided at the ends of the optical fiber cables, and which are provided corresponding to the multiple frame-side connectors; a unit fixing portion which fixes the cable unit to the main frame; and a connector holder which holds the unit-side connectors in a manner which enables each unit-side connector to be inserted/extracted into/from the frame-side connector independent of each other.

Electronic device test apparatus with optical cables

Disclosed herein is an oil-based solid cosmetic composition comprising the following components (A) and (B): (A) 0.1-10 wt. % of a fluoroalkyl (meth)acrylate copolymer represented by the following general formula (1): ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are independently a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R.sup.3 is a hydrocarbon group having 1-32 carbon atoms, R.sub.f is a group obtained by substituting part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of a hydrocarbon group having 1-32 carbon atoms with the corresponding number of fluorine atoms, and n and m are independently a number of 2-2,000 on the average; and (B) 2.9-50 wt. % of a solid oily substance having a melting point of 60.degree.-120.degree. C. The cosmetic composition is good in shape retention and a feeling upon use, has excellent gloss upon its application and can retain the good gloss and color after the application over a long period of time.
