摘要:
A transfer arm holds a plurality of preforms arranged in a single line and simultaneously drops and supplies the preforms downward. A positioning arm has a pair of arm split members split in its widthwise direction. The arm split members have positioning surfaces formed on their contact surfaces to be brought into contact with outer peripheries of the preforms. After the preforms are dropped and supplied from the transfer arm, the arm split members of the positioning arm are opened and closed so that the positioning surfaces are brought into contact with the outer peripheries of the preforms. Thus, the performs are properly positioned.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing ultraprecise lenses, including aspherical lenses, not requiring grinding or polishing after press molding. The method comprises heating a glass material to a temperature corresponding to a glass viscosity of from 105 to 109 dPaS so that the glass material is softened, and press molding the glass material with the pressing molds which are heated to a temperature corresponding to a glass viscosity of from 108 to 1012 dPaS. Provided that the glass material is not heated to a temperature as high as that corresponding to a glass viscosity of 105 dPaS when the pressing mold is heated to a temperature corresponding to a glass viscosity of 108 and that the glass material is not heated to a temperature as low as that corresponding to a glass viscosity of 109 dPaS when the pressing mold is heated to a temperature corresponding to a glass viscosity of 1012 dPaS. The glass material to be molded comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of Nb2O3, WO3, and TiO2 and has a refractive index nd of greater than or equal to 1.65, an Abbè number (ν d) of less than or equal to 35, and a sag point (Ts) of less than or equal to 570° C. Each of the pressing molds comprises a film comprising carbon on a molding surface.

Method of manufacturing a concave meniscus lens with good surface precision. The method of manufacturing a concave meniscus lens method comprises press molding a glass material in a heat-softened state with a pressing mold. The heated glass material is fed between the molding surfaces of the preheated upper and lower pressing molds and press molded, and the upper and lower pressing molds are cooled to obtain a temporary lens; and when an irregularity is produced on one of the surfaces of the temporary lens, the temperature of the glass material, the preheating temperature of the upper and/or lower molds, or the cooling rate of the upper and/or lower molds is corrected to obtain a corrected lens. When the press molding of the temporary lens is conducted by the first and second pressure applications and an irregularity is produced on one of the surfaces of the temporary lens, the load of the second pressure application is corrected to obtain a corrected lens. The correction is repeated until the irregularity of the corrected lens obtained falls within the permitted range.

摘要:
A semiconductor integrated circuit device with a balun which is formed above a conductive semiconductor substrate and which includes a dielectric film, an unbalanced line for transmitting an unbalanced signal, and balanced lines for transmitting a balanced signal. The unbalanced line is placed opposite to the balanced lines via a nano-composite film that is a region of the dielectric film. The nano-composite film, interposed between the unbalanced line and the balanced lines, has a relative permittivity higher than that of other regions of the dielectric film. This allows suppression of electromagnetic coupling of transmission lines or passive elements other than the balun, thereby providing a semiconductor device with a wide-band and small-size balun.

A shaft connection structure connects a pair of rotating shafts by a fit between a pair of spline shafts, wherein the pair of rotating shafts are provided with corresponding ones of the pair of spline shafts. The shaft connection structure includes a shaft connection assist device. The shaft connection assist device includes a centering ring and centering pins. The centering ring is arranged outside of a first one of the spline shafts and coaxially with the first spline shaft. The centering pins are provided outside of a second one of the spline shafts. The centering pins engage with an outer peripheral surface of the centering ring and bring a shaft axis of the first spline shaft and a shaft axis of the second spline shaft into a range enabling the fit therebetween.
