Abstract: A double nut type self-locking nut that lends to easy machining of a small cross section area of crush section with uniform cut out surface by changing the shape of the cut out grooves in the main nut unit in order to provide a stable level of tightening torque at a certain level of shearing strength.

Abstract: An anchor that screws directly into a board without requiring a tap drill hole. A male screw is provided around the shaft part of the anchor with a drill part at one end and a flange part at the other end; at the end where the flange part is provided, a turning tool engagement hole and a female screw formed hole part continuous therewith are provided. The drill part is formed into a tapered-pyramid shape, multiple split shaft parts being formed by providing a slit that extends from the end surface of the pyramid-shaped drill part to midway up the shaft part. The tip of the split shaft part incorporate connected multiple drill bits that are formed by splitting the pyramid-shaped drill part.

Abstract: A method and system of controlling a screw engaging position adjuster provided in a complex mold clamping system. A theoretical deviation of a screw engaging position is theoretically calculated on the basis of a distance by which a movable die has been moved from an origin set for a mold thickness adjustment in clamping process. A measured deviation of the screw engaging position is measured from a distance between a mold clamping cylinder and a movable platen in clamping process. The screw engaging position adjuster is so controlled that a difference between the theoretical deviation and the measuring deviation is within an allowable deviation having previously been set.

Abstract: A communication card and the structure of a jack therefor. The end face of the card is provided with a slit-like aperture. Into the aperture there is inserted a base plate having a thickness smaller than the width of the aperture so as to allow insertion into the interior of the card and removal from the card. The base plate is provided with a notch directed to the outside when viewed from the card. The notch passes through the base plate in the direction of its thickness. The jack is formed by utilizing this notch. The plug, on the other hand, is of a rectangular parellelpiped shape and is electrically coupled to a cord. The inner surface of the notch is configured so as to be able to receive the plug. When the plug is inserted, the notch receives and holds the plug. At that time, the notch receives and holds the plug in such a manner that the direction of the longest edge among the edges of the plug, or the extending direction of the cord is parallel to the major planes of the card.

Abstract: A mounting structure for temporarily mounting electronic parts fitted into a mounting bore formed in a frame and fixedly soldered at the fitted portion thereto enhances assembly and soldering. The mounting structure includes a tongue integral with the frame, folded thereover, and positioned around the mounting bore, so that the electronic part fitted therein is elastically fixedly supported on the frame by the tongue although the mounting bore is formed slightly larger in diameter than the fitted portion of the electronic part. The electronic part is thus temporarily fixedly held in the frame for being fixedly soldered to the frame with accuracy.
