Abstract: A method for producing a nickel cobalt complex hydroxide includes first crystallization of supplying a solution containing Ni, Co and Mn, a complex ion forming agent and a basic solution separately and simultaneously to one reaction vessel to obtain nickel cobalt complex hydroxide particles, and a second crystallization of, after the first crystallization, further supplying a solution containing nickel, cobalt, and manganese, a solution of a complex ion forming agent, a basic solution, and a solution containing said element M separately and simultaneously to the reaction vessel to crystallize a complex hydroxide particles containing nickel, cobalt, manganese and said element M on the nickel cobalt complex hydroxide particles crystallizing a complex hydroxide particles comprising Ni, Co, Mn and the element M on the nickel cobalt complex hydroxide particles.

Abstract: A bonding apparatus provided with a gas supplying unit for causing an inert gas to be sprayed from a spray aperture provided adjacent to a holding section of the bonding head. The spray aperture is provided so as to surround the holding section of the bonding head, in which a portion of the slits is a wide slit set to a higher jet flow rate of the inert gas than narrow slits of another portion, and the inert gas sprayed from the wide slit and the narrow slits forms an air curtain that surrounds the bonding portion between the semiconductor chip and the substrate. The inert gas sprayed from the wide slit forms a flow that passes between the semiconductor chip and the substrate.

Abstract: A manufacturing apparatus of a rubber member includes an extruder that kneads and feeds a rubber material; a mouthpiece that discharges the rubber material supplied from the extruder; a support member that has a support surface opposing the mouthpiece; a rubber collection chamber that is formed between the mouthpiece and the support surface, that collects the rubber material discharged from the mouthpiece, and that has an opening in a front movement direction of the support surface with respect to the mouthpiece; and a shutter that opens and closes the opening. A plate-like rubber member is molded using the rubber material discharged from the mouthpiece onto the support surface by relatively moving the support surface and the mouthpiece.

Abstract: A continuous rubber-ribbon extruding system includes at least a first continuous rubber extruding machine and a second continuous rubber-extruding machine. The first continuous rubber extruding machine includes: a first extruder for kneading and extruding a rubber material supplied thereto; a strainer for removing foreign substances from the rubber material supplied from the first extruder; and a first forming nozzle for extruding a rubber ribbon as a pre-process product.
