Abstract:
A stainless steel member for a separator of a solid polymer fuel cell which has excellent cell properties with little deterioration in performance over long periods of operation without worsening of the corrosion resistance of a stainless steel separator is provided.A stainless steel member has a stainless steel base metal, and a passive film and electrically conductive precipitates both provided on a surface of the stainless steel base metal. The electrically conductive precipitate penetrates the passive film and includes a substance originating from the stainless steel base metal. An electrically conductive layer comprising a nonmetallic electrically conductive substance is preferably provided on the surface of the passive film, and the electrically conductive layer is preferably electrically connected to the stainless steel base member through the electrically conductive precipitates.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a vehicle sunshade device 20, which can cover and uncover a rear window provided between a pair of rear pillars 11R and 11L formed in both sides in the vehicle width direction with a screen body 21, and comprising: a winding device 30 for biasing the screen body 21 in its winding-up direction; a pair of guide rails 40R and 40L in both sides in the vehicle width direction of the winding device 30, and capable of being attached to the inner wall of the rear pillar; a pair of sliders 50 fixed at both edges in the vehicle width direction of the screen body 21 respectively, and capable of reciprocately moving within the pair of guide rails 40R and 40L; a drive unit 60 for reciprocately moving the sliders 50 within the guide rails 40R and 40L so as to spread out the screen body 21 against the biasing force of the winding device 30 and wind up the screen body 21 in a spread-out state with the winding device; a temporary joint part 80 for temporarily connecting the pair of guide rails 40R and 40L with the winding device 30 in a condition, where a relative distance between each of the guide rails 40R and 40L is adjustable, until the present vehicle sunshade device 20 is attached to the pair of rear pillars 11R and 11L.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer in a trench. The first insulating layer insulates two MOSFETs from each other, and the second insulating layer has a true stress opposite to a true stress of the first insulating layer. The second insulating layer includes two regions of different true stresses. This enables a drain current flow in each MOSFET to be independently controlled in a semiconductor device that employs a STI method for element isolation.
Abstract:
A winder is provided near a quarter window of a rear door. A shade member is drawably mounted about the winder. A connecting piece is connected to a drawing arm and mounted to the rear portion of the shade member. A shoe is mounted to a bottom end of the drawing arm. The shoe engages with a regulatory groove extending in a drawing direction of the shade member. A driving cable is connected to the shoe. The shade member can be drawn out across the window by the drawing arm via the sending out of the driving cable by an operating mechanism. Since the regulatory groove extends substantially in a circle, when the shoe moves through engagement with the regulatory groove, the connecting piece connected to the drawing arm pivots relative to the shoe.
Abstract:
A high-Si content austenitic stainless steel, which exhibits stable acid resistance and excellent corrosion resistance in high-temperature and concentrated nitric acid, has a chemical composition comprising: C: at most 0.04%; Si: 2.5-7.0%; Mn: at most 10%; P at most 0.03%; S: at most 0.03%; N: at most 0.035%; sol. Al: at most 0.03%; Cr: 7-20%; Ni: 10-22%; optionally, one or more types selected from Nb, Ti, Ta and Zr: 0.05-0.7% in total; and the remainder being Fe and impurities, wherein a total amount of B1 type inclusions measured by a method according to JIS G0555 (2003) Annex 1 “Microscopic Testing for the Non-Metallic Inclusions on the Point Counting Principle” is not more than 0.03% by area %.
Abstract:
A titanium alloy including by mass %, a platinum group metal: 0.01 to 0.15% and a rare earth metal: 0.001 to 0.10%, with the balance being Ti and impurities. The titanium alloy preferably includes as a partial replacement for Ti, Co: 0.05 to 1.00% by mass, and the content of the platinum group metal is preferably in the range of 0.01 to 0.05% by mass. Furthermore, it is preferred that the platinum group metal be Pd and the rare earth metal be Y. Consequently, it is possible to provide a titanium alloy having corrosion resistance comparable to or better than that of the conventional art as well as good workability while offering an economic advantage with a lower content of platinum group metal or an advantage of less likelihood of corrosion growth originating at defects such as flaws that occurred in the surface.
Abstract:
The clad material comprises outer layers each consisting of Ni or Ni alloy and a base layer consisting of Cu or Cu alloy, and is characterized in that peeling-off at a clad boundary is not recognized in cross section observation made after the clad material has been subjected to a 90° reverse bend test ten times, and the number of reverse bend cycles before rupture is 17 cycles or more. The clad material has with both of excellent corrosion resistance against electrolytic solution and high electric conductivity.
Abstract:
An illumination device for a vehicle configured to illuminate an armrest on a door trim of the vehicle includes a light source and a light directing member. The light source is arranged above the armrest and has a light emitting portion configured to emit light toward the armrest. The light directing member is arranged so as to cover the light emitting portion from below. The light directing member is configured to direct the light emitted from the light emitting portion toward the armrest toward a front of the vehicle.
