  • Patent number: 6523527
    Abstract: A tubular resin contains small animal repelling chemical. And canister structure installed in an automobile comprises the above tubular resin on the inner wall of an air inlet port portion of a drain pipe. The canister structure absorbs evaporated fuel from a fuel tank by a absorbent in a main body of a canister and then supplies desorbed fuel from the adsorbent together with the air sucked from the drain pipe to an engine side. The tubular resin prevents entering of a small animal into the drain pipe and also building of its nest.

  • Patent number: 6454645
    Abstract: An air conditioner outlet vent device in which one of a blade and a housing is molded as a primary molding having a shaft hole by primary injection using a first synthetic resin, the other is molded, within a secondary mold die where the primary molding has been set, as a secondary molding having a support shaft by secondary injection using a second synthetic resin so that the shaft hole and the support shaft are fitted together at the same time as they are molded, thereby enabling the blade to pivot within the housing. The first and second synthetic resins are of the same synthetic resin system, and an additive for suppressing shrinkage in cooling and solidifying it after injection molding is added to the first synthetic resin so that the percentage mold shrinkage of the shaft hole becomes smaller than that of the support shaft.

  • Patent number: 4804560
    Abstract: A method of selectively depositing tungsten upon a silicon semiconductor substrate. A silicon substrate is coated with a masking film of PSG or SiO.sub.2 that is patterned to provide an opening for forming an electrode or wiring. On a portion of the substrate in the opening, a layer of tungsten having a thickness of approximately 2000 .ANG. is deposited by a CVD method from an atomosphere containing a gaseous mixture of WF.sub.6 and H.sub.2 . During this processing, tungsten nucleuses deposit on the surface of the masking film as well. Before such nucleuses form a film, the deposition processing is discontinued and H.sub.2 gas is fed into the CVD apparatus to produce HF, which etches the surface of the masking film, and thus tungsten nucleuses are removed. The deposition and removal steps are repeated several times until the height of the deposited tungsten and the thickness of the masking film are essentially equal to present a flat surface.
