  • Patent number: 11984816
    Abstract: A power conversion device and a press apparatus capable of preventing an excessive current in a DC-link capacitor are provided. The power conversion device 10 includes a voltage-doubling rectifier circuit 12. In the voltage-doubling rectifier circuit 12, in a voltage-doubling rectification mode, a common connection node Nc between two capacitors 102a and 102b is connected to a predetermined node. A current detector circuit 107 detects a switching current (IL) flowing in the switching elements SW1 and SW2, and a current detector circuit 108 detects a load current Ild of a load 15. In a mode switching period from a full-wave rectification mode to a voltage-doubling rectification mode, a controller circuit 110 controls the switching of the switching elements SW1 and SW2, based on the switching current (IL) and the load current Ild.

  • Patent number: 11912449
    Abstract: To provide an article gripping system that reduces the installation area of the apparatus and further shortens the amount of time from when it grips to when it feeds articles. An article gripping system (110) switches between a first positional relationship in which a container (50) obstructs discharge of articles gripped by a first gripping unit (15A) but does not obstruct discharge of articles by a second gripping unit (15B) and a second positional relationship in which the container (50) obstructs discharge of articles gripped by the second gripping unit (15B) but does not obstruct discharge of articles gripped by the first gripping unit (15A), so the gripping units do not move while they are holding the articles, and the articles can be prevented from falling out of the gripping units (15).

  • Publication number: 20220267922
    Abstract: A surface treatment device utilizes an electrode device. The electrode device is provided with a closed part facing a bottom part of a bottomed hole when inserted inside the bottomed hole, and a flow through hole linking the inside and outside of the electrode device is formed in the electrode device. When surface treatment is implemented on the inner wall surface of the bottomed hole, the hollow electrode device is inserted into the inside of the bottomed hole, the electrolytic treatment solution is made to flow through the space inside the bottomed hole, and power is applied across the electrode device and the inner wall surface of the bottomed hole. The closed part faces the bottom part of the bottomed hole as an electrode across a prescribed surface area; therefore, electroplating at the bottom part of the bottomed hole proceeds to the same extent as other sites.
