A length of the tongue piece portion is a, a length from the opening portion to the folded-back portion is b, and a length from the folded-back portion to the adhesion portion is c. And,

Packaging container, blood test kit, and blood analysis method

Provided are a fiber rod, a blood collection instrument, and a blood test kit, which are capable of easily taking out a blood specimen. A fiber rod which is used in a blood collection instrument in a blood test kit, including a fiber portion which is composed of a first fiber and a second fiber having different fiber diameters and which has a void volume within a range of 90% to 97%, in which a distance between surfaces facing each other of the fiber portion includes a region within a range of 1 mm to 1.6 mm.

Fiber rod, blood collection instrument, and blood test kit

A multi-head film slitter slits wide film having a photosensitive emulsion layer oriented upwards to produce motion picture film. A lower rotary blade has a lower cutting edge. An upper rotary blade has an upper cutting edge, for shearing the wide film with the lower cutting edge. The upper and lower cutting edges are overlapped partially, and contact one another in a position downstream in a running direction of the wide film. A clearance is provided between the upper and lower cutting edges in a position upstream in the running direction. Also, a lower blade shaft rotates the lower blade. An upper blade shaft is disposed higher than the lower blade shaft, for rotating the upper blade. The clearance is provided by inclining the upper blade shaft on a plane on which the upper blade shaft lies and which is parallel with the wide film.

Film slitter, film and film slitting method

A camera includes a movable aperture stop plate, which changes over a light path of object light between plural stop states. A depressible shutter release button is provided. A shutter mechanism is released in response to depression of the shutter release button after a charging operation and changing over the movable aperture stop plate, to provide an exposure to the photo film. A photometric circuit including a CdS element measures object brightness adapted for changing over the movable aperture stop plate. A photometric switch includes first and second switch segments, is turned on when pressed, to supply the photometric circuit with power. A blocking pin blocks and turns off the first and second switch segments upon completion of the charging operation of the shutter mechanism, and comes away from the photometric switch when the shutter release button is depressed.

Camera and shutter device

An anti-reverse claw is in mesh with a winding dial of a lens-fitted photo film unit. The anti-reverse claw has a pair of welded pieces. The welded pieces go behind a rear cover of the lens-fitted photo film through a pair of holes formed in the rear cover. After assembling, a welding head is applied to the rear side of the rear cover to apply heat. The welded pieces and a separation plate are melted and mixed together, so that the anti-reverse claw is firmly fixed to the rear cover.

Lens-fitted photo film unit and method for reusing the same

A protective cover ( ) for a taking lens is provided in the front of a lens-fitted photo film unit. The protective cover cooperates with a shutter locking mechanism which locks a shutter button ( ) when the protective cover is in a closed position in front of the taking lens. The protective cover also cooperates with a flash prevention mechanism which turns off a flash charge switch off when the protective cover moves in the closed position, prevents the flash charge switch from being moved to its ON position so long as the protective cover is in the closed position, and allows the flash charge switch to be moved to the ON position when the protective cover is moved away from the taking lens. The protective cover is slidable in a horizontal direction on a front surface portion of the film unit, and the front surface portion is straight in the horizontal direction. The protective cover has a vertical length that does not interfere with a bottom lid ( ) that is provided for removal of an exposed photo filmstrip. A first label is stuck on a front surface of the protective cover, and a second label is wrapped around the film unit excluding the front surface portion the protective cover slide thereon, to decorate and dust-proof the film unit and reinforce the unit housing.

Lens-carrying photo film unit having protective cover

A shutter device for a camera includes a shutter blade for providing an exposure by opening/shutting a photographic light path, and a shutter drive lever for driving the shutter blade. The shutter device includes a shutter release button. A photometric switch is turned on in response to depression of the shutter release button. A photometric circuit is operated by turning on of the photometric switch, for measuring object brightness. An aperture stop changeover mechanism changes over an aperture stop of the photographic light path according to the photographic light path. A delay structure such as a delay lever detects completion of actuation of the aperture stop changeover mechanism and responsively moves the shutter drive lever.

Lens-fitted film unit provided with focus adjusting mechanism

Lens-carrying film unit having protective cover

A lens-fitted photo film unit includes an opaque main body pre-loaded with photo film. An opaque rear cover covers a rear of the main body. A front cover covers a front of the main body. A viewfinder eyepiece opening is formed through the rear cover. A viewfinder objective opening is formed in the front cover, combined with the viewfinder eyepiece opening, and adapted to observation of a photographic field. The front cover is produced from transparent material. A field frame member is disposed on an edge of the viewfinder objective opening, visible through the viewfinder eyepiece opening, for indicating a photographable region in the photographic field.

Lens-fitted photo film unit

A lens-fitted photo film unit includes a main body. A cassette holder chamber in the main body contains a photo film cassette. A roll holder chamber in the main body contains a roll of photo film drawn from the photo film cassette. A front cover of transparent resin covers a front of the main body. A rear cover covers a rear of the main body. The roll holder chamber has a top wall portion and an end wall portion disposed farther from the cassette holder chamber. A first light-shielding ridge is disposed to project forwards from the rear cover and to extend horizontally, overlapped with the top wall portion, for blocking entry of ambient light at the top wall portion. A second light-shielding ridge is disposed to project forwards from the rear cover and to extend vertically, overlapped with the end wall portion, for blocking entry of ambient light at the end wall portion. The second light-shielding ridge extends to the first light-shielding ridge. Also, an exposure light path is formed through the front cover and the main body, for introducing object light to the photo film. A light-shielding ridge blocks entry of ambient light into the exposure light path through portions of the front cover outside the exposure light path. Furthermore, a taking lens is disposed in front of the main body. A lens opening is formed in the front cover in front of the taking lens, for introducing object light to the taking lens. A ring-shaped blocking projection portion is disposed inside an edge of the lens opening, for blocking advance of ambient light from the front cover to the taking lens outside a predetermined incident angle range.

A lens-fitted photo film unit has a photo film roll chamber (131) and a cassette containing chamber (17, 133). The roll chamber contains photo film (18) wound in a form of a roll. The cassette containing chamber contains a cassette (16). The photo film is wound into the cassette as much as one frame each time one frame is exposed. A bottom lid (30, 137) covers a bottom of the cassette containing chamber, and is opened to remove the cassette from the cassette containing chamber with the photo film included therein. A stopper projection (34) prevents the cassette from dropping out of the cassette containing chamber in removal of the cassette after opening the bottom lid. In a preferred embodiment, a hinge portion (30b, 142) connects the bottom lid (30, 137) to a rear cover (138) by way of a single piece and in swingable fashion. The hinge portion is defined by a first groove (146) formed in an obverse face of the rear cover, and a second groove (147) formed in a reverse face of the rear cover. The second groove is parallel with the first groove, and deviated from the first groove in a width direction thereof.
