Abstract
The present invention provides a floating ring mechanical seal wherein the sealing surface of the floating ring appropriately contacts the sealing surface of a counterpart seal and exhibits excellent sealing capability even under conditions in which the pressure or temperature of a fluid to be sealed increases or decreases significantly. The present invention pertains to a floating ring mechanical seal wherein a floating ring (5) is compressed and held between a rotary ring (4) and a stationary ring (2), with the stationary ring (2) configured as an cylindrical body having an L-shaped cross section and comprising a thick annular main body part (21) one end of which contacts the floating ring (5), and a thin cylindrical retaining part (22) extending in the axial direction from the inner circumferential edge of the other end of the main body part, and with an O-ring (7a) interposed between a seal case (1) and the retaining part (22) at the inner circumferential part of the seal case, and fitted and retained so as to be capable of moving in the axial direction. In addition, the stationary ring (2) is formed of a metal material having a Young's modulus and/or a thermal expansion coefficient approximately the same as that of the material forming the floating ring (5).
Imprint lithography methods that incorporate depositing droplets of polymerizable material in patterns that improve fill time performance when employing directionally-oriented imprint templates. The patterns are based on grid arrays formed of repeating sets of rows of droplets oriented along fast and slow axes, with droplets of each row offset along the slow axis relative to droplets in adjacent rows.

LED MODULE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME
A lead frame main body on which an LED chip is mounted is separated from a mounting board for electrical connections, thereby optimizing the respective costs and performances and obtaining a totally inexpensive and high-efficient heat release. An LED package includes: the lead frame main body, on the top surface of which the LED chip is mounted; and divided lead frames to which the respective pair of electric terminals of the LED chip are connected. On the mounting board, an opening portion for attaching the LED package is opened and wiring is formed. The LED package is mounted on the mounting board by connecting the top sides of the pair of electrode portions of the lead frame to the wiring on the mounting board, and a heat sink or a chassis is attached to the rear surface of the lead frame main body.
Disclosed is a perpendicular magnetic recording medium comprising one or more back-layers, one or more seed-layers, one or more underlayers and one or more perpendicular recording films laminated on a non-magnetic substrate, wherein at least one of the seed-layers comprises a covalently bonding material. Preferably, the covalently bonding material is a material mainly composed of a nitride having a hexagonal crystal structure, particularly a material mainly composed of an AIN having a hexagonal wurtzite type crystal structure. The magnetic recording medium enables the high-density recording/reproduction of information.

A system and method for controlling access to a document processing device based on roles assigned to user groups. Each group of users has certain functions for which they are authorized to use the document processing device. The device compares a username and password with correlating information stored in an authentication server. The server transmits a list of functions for which the user is authorized to employ the device. The device then compares the requested function with the authorized functions to determine if the user is allowed to utilize the document processing device for the requested function. The document processing device then performs the authorized requested function.
A preset security level system and a method for utilizing the preset security level system. The system includes a plurality of security levels, each of which enables a different level of security. Each of the security levels has associated therewith security features, such that low security level features are associated with a low security level, etc. The system and method enable a system administrator to select a desired security level, which selection automatically results in the activation of the associated security features, rather than manually activate each desired security feature.
