Abstract:
There is provided is a conductive lubricant for a fluid dynamic bearing being able to ground static electricity occurring at the fluid dynamic bearing without impairing the performance of the fluid dynamic bearing. This conductive lubricant for a fluid dynamic bearing is provided by an ester base oil such as dioctyl sebacate that concurrently has heat resistance, a small quantity of evaporation, low cost and wettability to metal, which are necessary for a fluid dynamic bearing. The conductive lubricant contains 0.1 to 5 percent by weight of antistatic additive such as alkyl aryl sulfonate having an affinity for this ester base oil. Therefore, this antistatic additive imparts conductivity to the base oil, by which the static electricity occurring at the fluid dynamic bearing can be grounded without impairing the lubrication performance.
Abstract:
The signal source generates a signal of a frequency higher than the vibration frequency of the slider of the hard disk drive, and supplies it to one end of the slider and the disk of the hard disk drive. The detector detects a signal output from the other end of the slider and the disk, and outputs a change in the capacitance between the slider and the disk as a voltage when the hard disk drive receives an impact.
Abstract:
A substrate processing apparatus that performs processing by immersing a substrate into a processing liquid obtained by mixing phosphoric acid with a diluent includes a concentration sensing means for sensing the concentration of the processing liquid by measuring the absorbance characteristics of the processing liquid. The concentration sensing means includes a light-transmitting section that introduces the processing liquid into the inside to let the processing liquid pass therethrough, a light-emitting section that radiates light having a predetermined wavelength to the light-transmitting section, a light-receiving section that receives the light therefrom via the light-transmitting section, a first lens that condenses the light emitted from the light-emitting section to the light-transmitting section, a second lens that condenses the light that has passed through the light-transmitting section to the light-receiving section, and a cooling mechanism that cools at least one of these.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a grease for a rolling bearing containing poly-&agr;-olefin synthetic oil or diphenyl ether synthetic oil, a diurea thickening agent, and an organic antimony compound or an organic molybdenum compound. The present invention is also directed to a rolling bearing in which the grease for a rolling bearing is sealed. The organic antimony compound or the organic molybdenum compound reacts with a metal composing inner and outer bearing rings and a rolling element to form a compound film contributing to the reduction of the force in the tangential direction on a raceway surface of the bearing rings and a surface of the rolling element, thereby preventing an excessively large force in the tangential direction under high-speed rotation. This enables to lengthen the life of the rolling bearing used under particularly severe conditions such as high temperature, high-speed rotation and high road.

Abstract:
A second line 44 is branched from a first line 22 connected to a processing part 10 configured to process a wafer W. A plurality of third lines (an ammonia-water supply line 48, a hydrochloric-acid supply line 52, and a hydrofluoric-acid line 56) are branched from the second line 44. The third lines are respectively provided with valves 48a, 52a, and 56a at locations branched from the second line 44. Chemical-liquid supply sources (an ammonia-water supply source 46, a hydrochloric-acid supply source 50, and a hydrofluoric-acid supply source 54) are connected to the respective third lines, whereby chemical liquids can be supplied from these chemical-liquid supply sources to the respective third lines.
Abstract:
Bismuth dithiocarbamate (BiDTC) is added to a urea grease containing a lubricating base oil having a poly-α-olefin synthetic oil or a diphenyl ether synthetic oil and a diurea thickening agent, or a fluorine grease containing a lubricating base oil having fluorinated synthetic oil and a polytetrafluoroethylene thickening agent. By taking such constitution as described above, a surface film is formed on a surface of a raceway of any one of inner and outer rings or a surface of a rolling element of a bearing. Therefore, the rolling bearing in which a grease composition having the constitution is packed can maintain an excellent lubricity for a long period of time even under severe conditions such as a high rotation, a high temperature and a heavy load. Further, the grease composition for the rolling bearing is low in harmfulness to a human body and gives little load to the environment.
Abstract:
A shield case which is capable of significantly reducing the level of spurious radiation which may be emitted out through a through-hole formed in the shield case is provided. A recess 8 a few cm wide and a few mm deep is formed in that portion of the interior surface of the shield case 2 surrounding the through-hole 6. A material providing a resistance to the flow of radio frequency current 7 passing through a printed circuit board 1, that is, a material 9 giving a significant transmission loss to a radio frequency signal is embedded in the recess 8 to prevent the radio frequency current passing through the printed circuit board 1 from flowing into the through-hole 6. In addition, such material 9 giving a significant transmission loss is deposited on the inner peripheral surface of the through-hole to inhibit the radio frequency current 7 from flowing through the through-hole.

Abstract:
A film composed of grease, or a film composed of a thickener for grease, is formed on a portion of the surface of each of components constituting a bearing, the portion being opposed to a polymeric lubricant, whereby sliding frictional resistance between the bearing components and the polymeric lubricant is reduced. In the formation of the film, the assembled bearing in which the film has not yet been formed is immersed into a liquid which is obtained by diluting the grease or the thickener for grease with a solvent, and the solvent is then dried, thereby to highly reproducibly form the film of uniform thickness. In an assembled double-row self-aligning roller bearing wherein an outer race is swingable in a direction perpendicular to the center axis of the bearing, raw materials of a polymeric lubricant are poured into and solidified in two regions of an annular space between the inner and outer races.
