Abstract: A junction structure and a joining method of substrates are provided that stably can join the substrates and achieve high workability during joining. A second substrate 2 to be joined with solder to a first substrate 1 is bent with elasticity generated by a bending portion 9, and first joints 5 on the first substrate 1 and second joints 6 on the second substrate 2 are joined with solder in a state in which the first substrate 1 is brought into contact with, in a direction that increases the bending angle of the bending portion 9, a part where the joints 6 are formed on the second substrate 2.

Abstract: An optical pickup according to the present invention includes: a light source 1d for irradiating an optical disk 4 with light; a lens 3 for converging the light onto the optical disk 4; a photodetector 1c having a plurality of detection regions 1cf, 1ct for detecting light which is reflected from a signal surface of the optical disk 4 and converting the light into an electrical signal; a hologram element 1a having a hologram region 1b for guiding the reflected light to the photodetector 1c; and a light-shielding plate 2 for blocking at least a portion of light transmitted through a region of the hologram element 1a other than the hologram region 1b. The light-shielding plate 2 includes a light shielding portion 2b for blocking light, and an aperture 2a for allowing the light to be transmitted therethrough.

Abstract: In an injection compression molding method, dies are clamped with low pressure and a melted thermoplastic resin composition is filled in a cavity space from a gate while moving the cavity space relative to the gate, and then the dies are clamped with a high pressure substantially simultaneously with completion of the filling to compress and form the thermoplastic resin composition filled in the cavity space. Since the thermoplastic resin composition containing a high content of thermally-conductive filler such as an electrically-conductive filler can be injected and compressed to be molded, the injection compression molding method can be applied in manufacturing molding such as a fuel cell separator and a flat antenna.

Abstract: In an injection compression molding method of the present invention, dies 11, 12 are clamped with low pressure and a melted thermoplastic resin composition 16 is filled in a cavity space 13 from a gate while moving the cavity space 13 relative to the gate 30, and then the dies 11, 12 are clamped with a high pressure substantially simultaneously with completion of the filling to compress and form the thermoplastic resin composition 16 filled in the cavity space 13. Since the thermoplastic resin composition containing a high content of thermally-conductive filler such as an electrically-conductive filler can be injected and compressed to be molded, the present invention can be applied in manufacturing molding such as a fuel cell separator and a flat antenna.

Abstract: In a objective lens driver, at least one permanent magnet is mounted on a movable member, and plural yokes, each being wound with a coil having its winding axis in the focusing direction, are disposed facing the permanent magnet. The yokes are arranged almost symmetrically about a plane including the center of gravity of the movable member and being perpendicular to the tracking direction. In this structure, even when the movable member moves in the tracking direction, since the permanent magnet (a magnetic field source) also moves with the movable member, the distribution of magnetic flux density that contributes to the drive also shifts according to the movement of the movable member, so that the distribution of magnetic flux density maintains being almost symmetrical about the center of gravity of the movable member. Accordingly, in tilt drive, a constant sensitivity to tilt drive is obtained regardless of the position of the movable member.
