  • Publication number: 20160178884
    Abstract: A lenses unit for an endoscope includes a lens barrel; a lens serving as a front group lens and lenses serving as a rear group lens, which are housed inside the lens barrel; and an aperture arranged between the front group lens and the rear group lens. An imaging-side final surface of the rear group lens has a structure in which the imaging-side final surface is fixed to a cover glass of an image pickup device with an adhesive layer. A focal distance fF of the front group lens, a focal distance fB of the rear group lens, a focal distance fel of an entire optical lenses group, a total optical length OL of the optical lenses group, and a metal back MB of the optical lenses group satisfy a relationship of fel/fF<0, fel/fB>0, and OL/MB>7.0.

  • Publication number: 20120044693
    Abstract: In order to reduce manufacturing cost of a base supporting a semiconductor laser, without deteriorating accuracy of mounting of the semiconductor laser, a mounting member is provided between the base supporting the semiconductor laser and the semiconductor laser; and the semiconductor laser and the base are fixedly attached with heat-cured silver paste. The silver paste has a lower curing temperature than an assurance temperature of the semiconductor laser, and a higher heat resistance than an operation temperature of the semiconductor laser. The mounting member is formed of a material having a higher heat resistance than the curing temperature of the silver paste.

  • Publication number: 20110298921
    Abstract: A rotational driving device has a rotation body and a plurality of magnetic rotation drivers so as to rotate the rotation body by generating a magnetic force in a rotation direction. Provided in an area formed between the magnetic rotation drivers are a first magnetic sensor that detects a position of the rotation body in a radial direction; a second magnetic sensor that detects a position of the rotation body in an axial direction; a first electromagnet that controls the position of the rotation body in the radial direction by generating a radial-direction magnetic force; and a second electromagnet that controls the position of the rotation body in the axial direction by generating an axial-direction magnetic force. The rotational driving device is capable of providing a long-term dependability, inhibiting vibration, as well as using space effectively.

  • Publication number: 20110291966
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a touch screen device includes a first electrode having a plurality of first conductor lines, inclined at a predetermined angle in clockwise and counterclockwise directions with respect to a first direction and provided at a predetermined interval to form a grid-shaped pattern; and a second electrode having a plurality of second conductor lines, inclined at the predetermined angle in clockwise and counterclockwise directions with respect to a second direction, the second direction perpendicular to the first direction and provided at the predetermined interval to form a grid-shaped pattern. The first electrode and the second electrode are superimposed to form a pattern of squares as basic shapes, and the predetermined angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees. By superimposing the first electrode and the second electrode, a pattern of two different squares as basic shapes is formed due to interaction of the first electrode and the second electrode.
