Abstract:
When an operator applies a removing force to turn a switch portion b in a direction C2, a projection a4 abuts against a slope b71 so that the removing force as a reaction is applied to the slope. The removing force is divided into a component working along the slope b71 and a component F working in a same direction as a center axis X. Thus, the removing force is converted into a force F in the same direction as the center axis X. By means of the force F in the same direction as the center axis X, a pushbutton support b6 is moved downward as accordingly moving a movable contacts b9 away from a fixed contacts b12 via a contact shaft b5.

Abstract:
A wafer holder for a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus has a high heat conductivity. The wafer holder includes a sintered ceramic piece, a conductive layer such as a heater circuit pattern which can be formed with high precision on at least one surface of the sintered ceramic piece, and a protective layer formed over the conductive layer on the sintered ceramic piece so as to cover a surface of the conductive layer. The protective layer may contain a glass, a non-oxide ceramic such as aluminum nitride or silicon nitride, an oxide of ytterbium, neodymium and calcium, or an oxide of yttrium and aluminum. In a method of manufacturing the wafer holder, a paste containing metal particles is applied on a surface of the sintered ceramic piece and is fired to form a heater circuit pattern as the conductive layer. Then the protective layer is formed on the sintered ceramic piece to cover the surface of the conductive layer.
Abstract:
There is provided a spread illuminating apparatus to improve a light coupling efficiency between a light conductive member and a transparent substrate. In the spread illuminating apparatus, an FPC mounting section of a frame is set to be lower than a substrate mounting section by the thickness of an FPC, and an extension provided at an FPC main body is let through an opening formed at a stepped part of the frame so as to be disposed on a reverse side of the frame, whereby an upper surface of the light conductive member is adapted to be flush with an upper surface of the transparent substrate while prevention of the deviation in the thickness direction between the light conductive member and the transparent substrate is not obstructed even when the extension is provided, which results in improving the light coupling efficiency.
Abstract:
A plastic conveyor chain includes a multiplicity of pinned links each having a flat load-carrying portion formed from a synthetic resin compound containing a polyacetal resin and a silicone-containing lubricant. Preferably, the silicone-containing lubricant contains, with respect to the weight of the synthetic resin compound, 0.5 to 2.0% by weight of silicone oil, 0.5 to 2.0% by weight of potassium titanate fiber, and 0.5 to 2.0% by weight of fatty ester obtained from a monobasic fatty acid and a monohydric alcohol. The thus formed flat load-carrying portion has a low friction coefficient such that the conveyor chain can achieve stable conveyance of articles even when the articles have an unstable bottom configuration.

In this method, a ground wire 2 is overlaid on a shield wire 1 in cross. Next, overlapping portions of the shield wire 1 and the ground wire 2 are interposed between an upper resin tip 13 and a lower resin tip 14. By executing a first ultrasonic oscillation while inserting a projection 7a of an ultrasonic horn 7 into a through hole 13b of the tip 13, outside rinds 1d, 2b of the wires 1, 2 are removed in the vicinity of the overlapping portions. Next, by arranging a low-melting metal 15 and a resin piece 16 on a contact between the braided wire 1c and the core line 2a and executing a second ultrasonic oscillation, the contact can be brazed with the mutual welding of the tips 13, 14.
Abstract:
A lever-type connector is provided. A connector housing is provided with support axes. A stopper is formed on the tip of each support axis. Axis holes 4 for receiving the support axes are formed on a lever for connector engagement. The lever is rotatably supported by the connector housing. A stopper is formed by bending and protruding the tip portion of each support axis in one direction. The stopper is bent or protrudes in a direction opposite to the moving direction of the lever. A guide surface for each axis hole is formed on the opposite side of the bent or protruding portion of each stopper. Thus, the support axes of the connector housing and the axis holes of the connector engaging lever can be simplified.
Abstract:
A method of adjusting pre-arcing time-current characteristic for a fuse is performed in a manner that a fusible portion I serving in a dead short-circuit area and a fusible portion II serving in a rare short-circuit area are coupled in series to form a fuse element, and entire pre-arcing time-current characteristic for the fuse is adjusted by combining pre-arcing time-current characteristic of the respective fusible portions I and II. A fuse structure is formed by a fusible portion I serving in a dead short-circuit, and a fusible portion II serving in a rare short-circuit area coupled in series with the fusible portion I serving in a dead short-circuit area. The fusible portion II serving in a rare short-circuit area is formed by material which is different in conductivity and melting point from those of material forming the fusible portion I serving in a dead short-circuit area.
