  • Patent number: 11466672
    Abstract: The object is to provide an actuator that moves in a shearing direction. An actuator comprises an internal actuator including a first stator and a first mover opposed to the first stator, the first mover moving in a direction away from the first stator; a second stator having a fixation wall that is disposed in a direction in which the first stator and the first mover are opposed to each other and that is disposed along a first mover side and away from the first mover, the second stator being fixed with the first stator; and a second mover having a pressing wall inserted between the first mover and the fixation wall.

  • Patent number: 7434311
    Abstract: This printed wiring board manufacturing method comprises the steps of providing a large number of through holes (for a through-hole) in a substrate made of an insulating material of which both sides are coated with a copper foil; making the inside of the through holes electrically conductive, coating the substrate with a photosensitive dry film, and developing and hardening the photosensitive dry film as a plating resist; and copper-plating the inside of the through holes and the opening periphery thereof. The manufacturing method further comprises the steps of coating the copper-plated area with a metal protective film, eliminating the photosensitive dry film; forming a circuit pattern; and conducting an overlaying treatment as a post-processing step.

  • Patent number: 7404908
    Abstract: According to this manufacturing method, a copper foil is attached to both sides of an insulating material to form a substrate. First, a large number of through-holes is made in the substrate and the inside of the through-holes is made electrically conductive. Then, after one side of the substrate is coated with a photosensitive dry film having an outer masking layer attached thereto, a developing solution is caused to infiltrate into the through-bores from the other side to develop the photosensitive dry film as a plating resist. The photosensitive dry film is then exposed to be hardened. The outer masking layer is removed to copper-electroplate the inside of the through-holes and the like. Finally, the photosensitive dry film is removed to form a circuit pattern.
