A fastener painting system is a system for painting a head of a fastener. The system includes: a cup for covering the head of the fastener by contacting an edge of the cup with a surface of the object; a supply system; a liquid discharging system; and a moving mechanism. The cup has a cavity for being filled up with paint. The supply system is configured to store the paint and supply the paint into the cavity of the cup. The liquid discharging system is configured to discharge surplus paint in the cavity out of the cup. The moving mechanism is configured to change a position of the cup relative to the object. The cup has a supply port for supplying the paint into the cavity, a vent for discharging air in the cavity out, and a liquid discharging port for discharging the surplus paint out of the cavity.

A supply device includes a collect tank which collects a process liquid from a substrate processing device and heats the collected liquid, and a supply tank connected to the collect tank and which supplies, to the substrate processing device, the process liquid heated in the collect tank. The collect tank includes a collect container that stores the process liquid, a first dividing plate that divides the collect container into a first region where the process liquid is introduced from the substrate processing device, and a second region that introduces the process liquid to the supply tank, piping that feeds, to the second region, the process liquid introduced in the first region, a first heater provided on a path through the piping and which heats the process liquid, and feed piping that feeds, to the supply tank, the process liquid in the second region and heated by the first heater.

A coating system for coating an optical article includes at least one replaceable cartridge having a reservoir configured for containing a volume of a coating material. a recirculation loop in fluid communication with the reservoir, and a first pump and a second pump in fluid communication with the recirculation loop. The coating system further includes at least one coating apparatus operable to coat at least a portion of the optical article with a select amount of the coating material from an engaged at least one replaceable cartridge. The second pump of each of the engaged at least one replaceable cartridge is operable to aspirate the select amount of the coating material from the recirculation loop and deliver the select amount of the coating material to the at least one coating apparatus.

Problem: To provide a reservoir container adapter, a reservoir container, and a reservoir device that make it possible to confirm that the reservoir container and the reservoir container adapter are in a right connection position even if some dimensional difference occurs due to uneven shrinkage during manufacturing.

Solution: A reservoir container adapter 10 that is attached to a reservoir container 20 including a reservoir cylinder 21 and a pair of brims 23 includes a base 11, a blocking portion 13, a pair of lateral members 12, and a pair of brim-holding claws 14. The pair of brim-holding claws 14 are provided with a first engagement element 15 and the pair of brims are provided with second engagement elements 27 that engage with the first engagement element 15. When the blocking portion 13 is inserted into an upper opening of the reservoir container 20 and rotation in one direction is performed, the brims 23 enter gaps between the brim-holding claws 14 and the base 11 and the first engagement element 15 and the second engagement element 27 engage with each other to perform positioning.
