In addition, the characters written on the third surface do not face the direction in which the right side (right side) or the left side (left side) is a component, and for example, the upper side (upper side), the lower side (lower side), and the front side (front side). Either the side) or the rear (back side), or the direction in which the components in each of these directions are multiplied, for example, the upper front, the lower rear, and the like.
