Abstract:
A method produces a coil sheet from an initial coil sheet in which a conductor layer, a thermally resistant insulating layer, a thermosetting, uncured adhesive layer, and a base layer are stacked in this order. The method includes a first cutting step of cutting the conductor layer into a predetermined shape through etching, and a second cutting step of cutting, after the first cutting step, the insulating layer and the adhesive layer into the predetermined shape through etching.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an armature coil that constitutes a stator of an X-axis linear motor and that generates a magnetic field by passing a current therethrough, the armature coil comprising: a band-shaped electroconductive layer that is made of copper and that is wound around a predetermined winding axis; a band-shaped insulating layer that is provided between opposing surfaces of the electroconductive layer, and that electrically insulates the opposing electroconductive layers from one another; and bonding layer that bonds together the opposing surfaces of the electroconductive layer with the insulating layer therebetween.

The flow path switching valve includes (a) a valve body having an open flow path which opens on a predetermined surface over a predetermined length in a predetermined direction, (b) a main body having a plurality of ports which open on a facing surface facing the predetermined surface at an interval shorter than the predetermined length in the predetermined direction, and a plurality of connection flow paths connected to the plurality of ports, (c) plate springs attached on both ends of the valve body in the predetermined direction so as to support the valve body such that a predetermined gap is formed between the predetermined surface and the facing surface, the plate springs applying elastic force onto the valve body according to a movement amount of the valve body in the predetermined direction, and (d) an actuator which drives the valve body back and forth in the predetermined direction.
Abstract:
An electromagnetic actuator includes a pair of plate springs each of which is configured to produce elastic force in a predetermined direction in accordance with an amount of deformation; a movable member supported by the pair of plate springs to be movable in the predetermined direction; and a drive unit which is configured to drive the movable member in the predetermined direction in a non-contact state by means of electromagnetic force to be applied between the pair of plate springs in the predetermined direction.
Abstract:
A coil sheet includes a conductor layer, a thermally resistant organic insulating layer, a thermosetting adhesive layer in a B-stage state, and a base layer, such that the conductor layer and the insulating layer are bonded to the base layer with the adhesive layer. A coil is formed of a laminate sheet including a conductor layer, an insulating layer, and an adhesive layer of the coil sheet which are released from the base layer thereof, wherein the laminate sheet is wound around a specific axis a plurality of times, and the adhesive layer is thermally cured.
Abstract:
An electromagnetic coil includes a conductor winding 12a formed by winding a conductor 12b a plurality of times about a predetermined axis, and a ceramic layer 12c formed through thermal spraying on an axial end surface of the conductor winding 12a, and having a flattened surface. A maximal value t12 of thickness of the ceramic layer 12c is set to three times or less a maximal value t11 of depth of the recesses formed at the surface of turns of the conductor 12b at the axial end surface.
Abstract:
A vacuum control valve connected between a vacuum chamber and a vacuum pump includes a control valve main body having a valve seat formed in a vacuum flow passage, a valve body that manipulates the valve opening by performing a linear motion to adjust a lift, a rod that transmits driving force from a linear driving unit that generates the driving force, a sliding/sealing member that seals the vacuum flow passage while allowing the rod to slide, and a cylindrical member that covers a sliding range of the rod. The sliding range includes a range movable from a valve body flow passage side to an exterior side. The cylindrical member has an outer peripheral surface, a working fluid absorption amount per unit area of the outer peripheral surface being smaller than that of an outer surface of the rod.
Abstract:
A liquid control apparatus 30 controls a spread mode of a liquid. The liquid control apparatus 30 includes a main body 31 having an upper surface 31c to which the liquid is supplied, and a mesh 47 knitted in a net-like shape and provided to be in contact with the upper surface 31c. An inhibiting groove 41 is provided in the upper surface 31c in a portion that is in contact with the mesh 47. An introducing port 33b for introducing a gas from the inside of the main body 31 into the inhibiting groove 41 is provided in the main body 31. The introducing port 33b is formed such that the gas is introduced into the inhibiting groove 41 substantially parallel to the upper surface 31c.
