Abstract: A gate driver includes: driver boards mountable on an IGBT module which is a driving-target external device; gate driver circuits which are formed on the driver boards and each apply a drive signal generated using power and a signal which are externally input through an input connector, to semiconductor elements of the IGBT module; and an insulating surrounding member disposed to surround a peripheral edge of the input-side driver board.

Abstract: A radiation detector includes: a light detection panel that has a light-receiving unit, and a bonding pad that is electrically connected to the light-receiving unit; a scintillator layer that is provided on the light detection panel to cover the light-receiving unit; and a protective layer that is provided on the light detection panel to cover the scintillator layer. An outer edge portion of the protective layer has an adhesive portion that is in close contact with the light detection panel in a region between the scintillator layer and the bonding pad, and an extension that extends from the adhesive portion to an opposite side of the light detection panel in a self-supporting state.

Abstract: A square can capable of securing high sealing performance even if a curvature radius of a seamed portion at a seamed corner portion is reduced, enabling a reduction in a countersink depth, reduced in size, having excellent sealing ability and storage efficiency and a method and an apparatus for double seaming the square can. A second seaming roll (55) is guided by a model cam for second seaming having a model cam surface for second seaming formed in such a shape that it is swelled from a model cam surface for first seaming outwards at a corner seamed portion (5). Accordingly, the seaming shape of the corner seamed portion (5) is formed in such a shape that the seaming width thereof at the center of the corner seamed portion is larger than the seaming width of a linear sealed portion (4) and is swelled outwards to absorb an increase in sheet thickness at the corner seamed portion.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an improved process for producing a quick-cooking noodle without frying treatment. The process is especially suitable for producing a quick-cooking snack noodle. Noodle formulations containing starch flour and edible fat and/or oil in addition to wheat flour and/or buckwheat flour, egg powder, salt, water and a noodle dough conditioner are mixed, rolled into a continuous noodle sheet, which is then slit into noodle strands, followed by steaming. Thereafter, the steamed noodle strands are cooled to within 30.degree.-60.degree. C. by blowing cold air, dried and then packaged together with flavoring agents and additives, preferably in a suitable insulating container.
