Publication number: 20140311044Abstract: The present invention provides a polishing film with which, even when water containing impurity ions is used as a polishing liquid, the abrasive particles comprising SiO2 are less apt to adhere to the polished surface, e.g., the polished surface of an end of an optical fiber itself, and which is less apt to cause the optical loss attributable to scratches or edge chips in the polished surface. The polishing film hence renders good finish-polishing quality possible. This polishing film is characterized by comprising a substrate and an abrasive layer which has been disposed on a surface of the substrate and which comprises abrasive particles comprising SiO2, a binder resin, and an adhesion inhibitor containing a phosphorus compound.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2012Publication date: October 23, 2014Applicant: BANDO CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Toshikazu Taura, Kazuo Saito, Fumihiro Mukai

Patent number: 8608603Abstract: [Purpose] A belt drive system, in which a drive belt 20 is wrapped between a drive pulley 1 drivingly connected to a drive source 11 and a driven pulley 2 connected to an driven unit 12 via a joint 32 provided to stop torque transmission when receiving a load equal to or over a predetermined value and torque is transmitted via the drive belt 20 from the drive pulley 1 to the driven pulley 2, ensures that when the driven unit 12 malfunctions, the joint 32 stops the torque transmission without unnecessarily increasing the coefficient of friction against the driven pulley 2 or the belt tension. [Solution] The belt drive system is configured so that when a slip corresponding to the load on the joint 32 equal to or over the predetermined value occurs between the drive belt 20 and the driven pulley 2, the coefficient of friction between the drive belt 20 and the driven pulley 2 becomes higher than that before the slip occurs.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2006Date of Patent: December 17, 2013Assignee: Bando Chemical Industries, Ltd.Inventor: Takehiro Hayashi
