Abstract:
In an evaluation apparatus of a hub unit, a signal processing unit outputs frequency analysis signals which indicate such a result obtained by that an output signal of an acceleration sensor fixed on a hub unit by a magnet is processed via an A/D converting unit and an envelope detecting unit, and thereafter, the processed sensor signal is analyzed for a frequency analysis by an FFT unit. Then, an evaluation output unit evaluates damage conditions of the hub unit based upon signal strengths of specific frequencies, and overall values, which are acquired from the frequency analysis signals, and then, outputs the evaluated damage condition to a display unit.
Abstract:
A microwave oven is installed above a cooking counter such as a kitchen stove counter. The microwave oven has its housing covered by an oven case, and incorporates a fan. By driving the fan, the microwave oven can have the hot air generated at the cooking counter inhaled from beneath the oven case and discharged from a front opening. The front opening is formed at the front face of the oven case. An operation display device is provided at the front face of the oven case. By one operation of a predetermined key on the operation display device, the drive of the fan is initiated and then automatically terminated at an elapse of a predetermined time (for example, 10 minutes).
Abstract:
When a hood fan of a microwave oven installed at a high place operates, the air below the microwave oven is guided to a prescribed direction. Namely, the microwave oven may be used as a ventilation fan. When manner of setting of the hood fan is changed, the direction of an air outlet of the fan can be changed. When the hood fan exhausts air to the room, the number of rotation of the hood fan is made lower than when the air is exhausted outside the room.
Abstract:
A microwave oven includes electronic components such as a high voltage transformer and a high voltage capacitor constituting a control circuit. These components are provided on a bottom panel of the microwave oven. A filter is fit under the bottom panel of the microwave oven. By removing the filter, the bottom panel can be detached from the main body frame. By detaching the bottom panel from the main body frame, the electronic components such as the high voltage transformer and the high voltage capacitor can be removed from the main body of the microwave oven while the microwave oven is still mounted at a high position. A cooking appliance that can be easily handled is provided.
Abstract:
A polishing method and a polishing apparatus finish a surface of a substrate of a compound semiconductor containing an element such as Ga or the like to a desired level of flatness, so that the surface can be flattened with high surface accuracy within a practical processing time. In the presence of water, such as weak acid water, water with air dissolved therein, or electrolytic ion water, the surface of the substrate made of a compound semiconductor containing either one of Ga, Al, and In and a surface of a polishing pad having an electrically conductive member in an area of the surface which is held in contact with the substrate) are relatively moved while being held in contact with each other, thereby polishing the surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
A polishing method can process and flatten, in a practical processing time and with high surface accuracy, a surface of a substrate of a Ga element-containing compound semiconductor. The polishing method includes: bringing a Ga element-containing compound semiconductor substrate (16) into contact with a polishing tool (10) in the presence of a processing solution (14) comprising a neutral pH buffer solution containing Ga ions; irradiating a surface of the substrate with light or applying a bias potential to the substrate, or applying a bias potential to the substrate while irradiating the surface of the substrate with light, thereby forming Ga oxide (16a) on the surface of the substrate; and simultaneously moving the substrate and the polishing tool relative to each other to polish and remove the Ga oxide formed on the surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
A bearing apparatus includes: two split outer ring halves which includes outer ring raceway surfaces and are disposed within a supporting hole of the housing, respectively; and a plurality of rollers which are disposed on respective inner surfaces of the both split outer ring halves and supports a shaft. Each of the two split outer ring halves includes an oil hole penetrating the split outer ring half in a radial direction thereof and an oil groove formed on an outer diameter surface of the split outer ring half along a circumferential direction thereof to allow the oiling passage and the oil holes to communicate with each other. Each of the oil holes is disposed at a position located at an angle of within 45° from the joint surface of the split outer ring halves in an opposite direction to a rotating direction of the shaft.
Abstract:
A bearing apparatus includes two split outer ring halves disposed in close contact with each other and a plurality of rollers. A circumferential end of each of the split outer ring halves has a concave-and-convex shape including a first slope portion inclined with respect to a line extending along an axial direction of the split outer ring halves and a second slope portion inclined in an opposite direction to that of the first slope portion. Each of the rollers is provided with crowning so as to be shaped in barrel form, and an amount of crowning is set such that an apex of a projecting portion at the concave-and-convex shape of each of the split outer ring halves is located on an axially outer side of a rolling surface of the roller rolling on an inner peripheral surface of each of the split outer ring halves.
Abstract:
A high frequency heating device having a switching member screwed into a screw hole formed in a flange and fixed to the exterior. When the exterior is fixed to the body, a through-hole formed at that portion in the rear plate of the body through which the switching member passes is too large for the switching member. Thus, while the switching member is fixable to the exterior, the switching member cannot be fixed to the body onto which the exterior is not mounted. Therefore, a high frequency heating device can be provided, wherein an exterior switch more surely keeps the power supply circuit open when the exterior is removed.
Abstract:
A split outer ring of a split rolling bearing, which splits in a radial direction, includes a pair of split outer ring members which are each formed into a semi-cylindrical shape and which are formed into a cylindrical shape by being butted against each other at circumferential end portions. A pair of first flat plane portions which extend from both axial end edges of the end portions towards a center in parallel with an axis and a V-shaped recess portion, positioned between the first flat plane portions and is recessed in a circumferential direction relative to the pair of first flat plane portions, are formed at one end portion of the circumferential end portions which are butted against each other, and a pair of second flat plane portions which extend from the both axial end edges in parallel with the axis.
