  • Patent number: 11955562
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a large on-state current and high reliability is provided. The semiconductor device includes a first insulator, a first oxide over the first insulator, a second oxide over the first oxide, a third oxide and a fourth oxide over the second oxide, a first conductor over the third oxide, a second conductor over the fourth oxide, a fifth oxide over the second oxide, a second insulator over the fifth oxide, and a third conductor over the second insulator. The fifth oxide is in contact with a top surface of the second oxide, a side surface of the first conductor, a side surface of the second conductor, a side surface of the third oxide, and a side surface of the fourth oxide. The second oxide contains In, an element M, and Zn. The first oxide and the fifth oxide each contain at least one of constituent elements included in the second oxide. The third oxide and the fourth oxide each contain the element M.

  • Patent number: 6125676
    Abstract: A control system for controlling a rod mill wherein a general-purpose motor can be used together with servomotors in controlling the operational sequence of processes, wherein the time required for going through all the processes can be reduced, and wherein the control system can function without imparting any extra load on a controller incorporated therein.

  • Patent number: 5188480
    Abstract: A coupling fixture provided with an outer ring and an inner ring each ring having a radially extending cut in one circumferential direction, the inner periphery of the outer ring and the outer ring of the inner periphery being tapered, a wedge-like-shaped ring nut interposed between the inner periphery and the outer periphery, and screw bolts screwably engageable with the ring nut to expand the outer ring in diameter and contract the inner ring in diameter, the ring nut being provided with a cut for making the ring nut radially displaceable.

  • Patent number: 5123771
    Abstract: A coupling fixture provided with an outer ring having first and second tapered surfaces, an inner ring having third and fourth tapered surfaces, a wedge-like ring nut interposed between the outer and inner rings and axially inwardly thereof and having tapered surfaces engageable with the first and third tapered surfaces. A wedge-like ring washer is interposed between the second and fourth tapered surfaces and axially outwardly thereof and having tapered surfaces engageable with the second and fourth tapered surfaces. Screw bolts are screwable into the ring nut to expand the outer ring in diameter and contract the inner ring in diameter, each cone angle of the tapered surfaces of the washer and of the tapered surfaces engageable therewith is made larger than that of the cone angle of the tapered surfaces of the ring nut and the first and third tapered surfaces engageable therewith and makes the washer more readily removable from the outer and inner rings when the screw bolts are loosened after being tightened.
