  • Patent number: 8411452
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus comprises a body chassis to which a cabinet is fastened by a screw, the screw is screwed from outside of the cabinet into a boss made of synthetic resin on the body chassis to pass through the boss, the body chassis is provided with a component having a metal surface arranged thereon, and the screw includes a tip opposed to the metal surface of the component. The body chassis is provided with a grounded metal plate arranged thereon, on which a projection intervening between the tip of the screw and the metal surface of the component is formed, the projection includes a through-hole through which the tip of the screw can pass, and the smallest gap length between inner peripheral surface of the through-hole and the screw is set to be smaller than the smallest gap length between the metal surface of the component and the screw.

  • Patent number: 5156033
    Abstract: A multiplicity of cooled steel products, after having been severed from an as-rolled steel, divided into sectional bars and delivered to and accumulated on a cooling hearth, are taken from the cooling hearth, and delivered to a multi-bar straightening machine. There, simultaneously with straightening, a predetermined distance from the leading ends of the bars is measured simultaneously, the forward movement of the bars is interrupted after they have advanced by said measured distance, and said forward portions are cut.

  • Patent number: 3988213
    Abstract: A method of distilling a polymerizable vinyl compound selected from the group consisting of acrolein, methacrolein, acrylic acid, methacrylec acid, hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, glycidyl acrylate and glycidyl methacrylate, the method comprising distilling the polymerizable vinyl compound in the presence of a polymerization inhibitor using a distillation tower having perforated trays without downcomers and wherein the temperature of the inner wall of the tower is maintained at a temperature sufficient to prevent the condensation of the vapor being distilled, whereby the polymerizable vinyl compound is distilled without the formation of polymer.
