Abstract: A manufacturing method comprises preparing a bonding substrate having bumps thereon; preparing a mounted member having external conductive members; applying a fixing material to the surface of the bonding substrate and/or to a surface of the mounted member; and fixing the bonding substrate and the mounted member with the fixing material such that the bumps contact the external conductive members. The fixing material is prepared to contain a first compound and a second compound, each having respective viscosities which change depending on their respective temperature profiles; and applying the fixing material to the bonding substrate and/or the mounted member at a temperature lower than a first temperature, and the fixing comprises pressing the bonding substrate against the mounted member when the fixing material has a temperature lower than the first temperature; and heating the fixing material to a temperature higher than the second temperature and curing the fixed material.

Abstract: A sheet switch module of the present invention includes: a light source; a light guide that guides light from the light source; a sheet switch disposed on the back side of the light guide in a thickness direction of the light guide; and a groove formed in the thickness direction of the light guide in at least one of a surface and the back of the light guide.

Abstract: A dispensing apparatus includes a dispensing arm, a driving motor, and a transmitting/buffering unit. The dispensing arm is rotatable and conveys a fluid drawn at a predetermined drawing position to a predetermined discharge position. The driving motor rotates the dispensing arm. The transmitting/buffering unit includes a crank shaft that rotates through a driving force of the driving motor and a crank rod that is coupled with the crank shaft and rotates with a rotation of the crank shaft thereby rotating the dispensing arm.

Abstract: A dispensing apparatus (100) includes a dispensing arm (110), a driving motor (120), and a transmitting/buffering unit (180). The dispensing arm (110) conveys a fluid drawn at a predetermined drawing position to a predetermined discharge position and is capable of rotating. The driving motor (120) rotates the dispensing arm (110). The transmitting/buffering unit (180) includes a crank shaft that rotates through a driving force of the driving motor (120) and a crank rod that is coupled with the crank shaft, rotates through rotation of the crank shaft thereby rotating the dispensing arm (110).

Abstract: In a lead frame carrying method and apparatus, first and second press units are provided on sides of a pair of carrier rails. When carrying a lead frame along the carrier rails, a side edge portion of the lead frame is clamped by being pressed from a surface and a back face of the lead frame almost perpendicularly thereto by the first and second press units. In the lead frame, the clamped side edge portion is floated by a predetermined height above one of the carrier rails during carrying. Accordingly, the lead frame can surely be clamped and carried. In addition, when carrying the lead frame along the carrier rails, the lead frame is damaged with difficulty by the carrier rails.
