Abstract:
A slider and microactuator elements are disposed on a gimbal portion of a flexure. A tongue of the gimbal portion has a first tongue portion, a second tongue portion, and a hinge portion. A leading-side portion of the slider is movably disposed on the first tongue portion. A trailing-side portion of the slider is secured to the second tongue portion. The hinge portion is formed between the first tongue portion and the second tongue portion. The gimbal portion is provided with a damper member includes a viscoelastic material layer and a constrained plate. The damper member comprises a first damper and a second damper. The hinge portion is exposed between the first damper and the second damper. A dimple on a load beam contacts the hinge portion at a point of contact.

Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a base plate, after deburring and heat-treating a half-finished base plate, cuts off a scrap section at the ends of the scrap section from a half-finished actuator attaching area so that cutting surfaces left in a finished actuator attaching area are positioned onto the inner perimeter of the finished actuator attaching area and are oriented to at least partly face an actuator attaching position inside the finished actuator attaching area.
Abstract:
A vehicle seat comprising a seat cushion having a seat cushion main body portion and seat cushion side portions that are disposed on both sides in a seat width direction of the seat cushion main body portion; a seat back having a seat back main body portion and seat back side portions that are disposed on both sides in the seat width direction of the seat back main body portion; and a varying mechanism supporting at least one of the seat cushion main body portion and the seat back main body portion, and varying the position of the seat cushion main body portion in a seat upward and downward direction relative to the seat cushion side portions, and/or varying the position of the seat back main body portion in a seat frontward and rearward direction relative to the seat back side portions.
Abstract:
An identification medium can be affixed to cloth or leather products by sewing. A cholesteric liquid crystal layer on which an embossed surface for forming a hologram is formed, is sandwiched between a first supporting member and a second supporting member. A mounting region that can be affixed to clothing, etc., by sewing, is formed.
Abstract:
A space transformer includes: a ceramic substrate that contains enstatite and boron nitride as components; a through hole running through in a thickness direction with respect to a sintered body in which the boron nitride is oriented in one direction; conductive material provided inside the through hole; and a wiring pattern including a plurality of electrodes provided on each of two principal surfaces, wherein a wiring pitch in the wiring pattern on one principal surface is different from a wiring pitch in the wiring pattern on the other principal surface.
Abstract:
Provided is a stator core for a motor capable of facilitating an assembly work and parts management without increasing the number of components while suppressing leakage of magnetic flux passing through a flange to a coil. A stator core has an annular yoke portion and tooth portions inwardly protruding from an inner periphery of the yoke portion in a radial direction, wherein at a front end of the tooth portion inwardly protruding in the radial direction, a flange portion is provided so as to face a coil wound around the tooth portion and wherein to the flange portion, a compressive residual stress portion M is provided.
Abstract:
A stabilizer link and a manufacturing method therefor in which there is less concentration of stress, the stud releasing load is improved, and the accuracy of centering of the ring member is improved. A second subassembly is formed by inserting a ball seat of a first subassembly into a ball seat receiving portion of a housing and by arranging a ring member at an opening side of the ball seat. A stopper base portion is abutted to an opening end surface of the ball seat. An outer peripheral end portion taper surface has a taper shape in which a diameter is increased toward an opening side in an axial direction, in a stopper base portion and it is abutted to a slope portion for a stopper base of the housing. An opening side of the ball seat is pressed through the ring member by caulking inwardly a caulking portion.
Abstract:
A terminal extending from a wiring member to face an electrode of a piezoelectric element and including a proximal end part and a distal end part with respect to the wiring member, the distal end part being connected to the electrode of the piezoelectric element through a conductive adhesive, comprising an insulating layer that faces the electrode of the piezoelectric element; a wiring layer laid on the insulating layer and connected to the electrode at the distal end part; and at least one liquid stopping recess provided on a surface facing the electrode at the proximal end part, the liquid stopping recess spanning between both edges of the insulating layer in an direction intersecting an extending direction of the proximal end part.
Abstract:
An actuator mounting section includes a plate member including a first plate and a second plate. The first plate is formed with an opening which accommodates an actuator element. The second plate includes a main body portion which overlaps the first plate and supporting portions which support opposite ends of the actuator element. A narrow portion narrower than the first plate is formed at a part of the main body portion of the second plate. A weld seal portion is formed by laser-welding the first plate and the second plate at the narrow portion. Adhesive is provided between the opposite ends of the actuator element and an inner surface of the opening of the first plate.
