  • Publication number: 20240343225
    Abstract: A diffusion nozzle through which washer liquid is ejected onto a front window glass of a vehicle and a jet nozzle through which the washer liquid is ejected onto the front window glass of the vehicle are respectively mounted in a first mounting hole portion and a second mounting hole portion formed in a cowl portion. The diffusion nozzle includes a head portion in which an ejection hole is formed and an insertion tube portion protruded from a bottom surface of the head portion and to be inserted in the first mounting hole portion. The jet nozzle includes a head portion in which an ejection hole is formed and an insertion tube portion protruded from a bottom surface of the head portion and to be inserted in the second mounting hole portion. The first mounting hole portion has a shape that does not allow the insertion tube portion of the jet nozzle to be inserted therein. The second mounting hole portion is formed in a bottom portion of a recessed portion disposed in the cowl portion.

  • Publication number: 20240256739
    Abstract: A method for molding analysis of a plate-like intermediate base material containing resin and reinforcing material when the base material is molded, including applying a base material model having anisotropy between out-of-plane direction and an in-plane direction orthogonal to the out-of-plane direction, and calculating viscosity distribution in a cross-section direction of a molded article using each viscosity in accordance with a flow field, and the viscosity distribution indicates that under a boundary condition there is no slip flow of the base material on a wall surface of the mold, as a result of a shear field in the vicinity of the wall surface, a low viscosity layer that is more affected by an out-of-plane shear viscosity than a central portion of the base material is automatically formed in the vicinity of the wall surface, and the base material in the vicinity of the wall surface functions as a lubricating layer.

  • Publication number: 20240253142
    Abstract: To provide a laser soldering apparatus, a control apparatus, and a laser soldering method that are capable of performing high-quality soldering by laser irradiation. A laser soldering apparatus according to the present technology includes a laser light source, a spatial light modulator (SLM), and a control unit. The laser light source emits laser light. The SLM modulates the laser light incident from the laser light source and irradiates at least one of a solder or a soldering target object with the laser light. The control unit controls the laser light source and the SLM to adjust an irradiation condition of the laser light.
