  • Publication number: 20240158901
    Abstract: To more securely inhibit the occurrence of paint film floating even when drawing is performed by using a Zn—Al—Mg-based alloy plated steel sheet as a base sheet. A pre-coated plated steel sheet according to the present invention includes: a plating layer composed of Zn—Al—Mg-based alloy plating, the plating layer being positioned on one side or both sides of a steel sheet; a chemical treatment film layer positioned on the plating layer; and a paint film layer positioned on the chemical treatment film, in which the paint film layer includes a primer paint film layer, and an upper paint film layer positioned on the primer paint film layer, and at least any of the following is satisfied: both a condition (a-1) and a condition (a-2); a condition (b); and a condition (c).

  • Patent number: 5055015
    Abstract: A seal structure comprises a combination of a dynamic seal assembly which is active while a rotary body is rotating and a static seal assembly which is active while the rotary body is not rotating. The dynamic seal assembly includes a seal member mode of low friction material. On the other hand, the static seal assembly has an elastically deformable seal member. A rotary receptacle bore has two different diameter sections. The dynamic seal assembly is designed and sized to be installed in a smaller diameter section of the bore and the static seal assembly is designed and sized to be installed in a larger diameter section. The seal structure is assembled by inserting the dynamic seal between the smaller diameter bore section via the larger diameter section. Subsequently, the static seal is inserted into the larger diameter section.
