Abstract: A vapor deposition unit includes: a vapor deposition source; a plurality of limiting plate units provided so as to constitute respective of a plurality of stages, the plurality of limiting plate units including at least a first limiting plate unit and a second limiting plate unit; and a vapor deposition mask which are provided in this order, the first limiting plate unit including a plurality of first limiting plates, the second limiting plate unit including a plurality of second limiting plates, and when viewed in a Z axis direction, the second limiting plates extending in a direction intersecting with a Y axis direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a display device which inhibits deterioration in display quality caused by color mixture of luminescent layers. In a case where vapor deposition particles are deposited onto a substrate, P+2Lc?{(Ts×M+0.96×G×Wn)/(Ts?G)}+2Dm and 3 ?m?Dm?5 ?m are satisfied, where “M” is a width of a mask opening, “Wn” is a width of an injection hole, “G” is a distance between the TFT substrate and a vapor deposition mask, “Ts” is a distance between the TFT substrate and a vapor deposition source, “P” is a width of a first pixel opening, and “Lc” is a width of a non-display region.

Abstract: The vapor deposition device includes a plurality of vapor deposition masks whose lengths in Y axis and X axis directions are shorter than those of a film formation target substrate. Vapor deposition masks adjacent to each other in the Y axis direction is positionally displaced in the X axis direction. In an overlapping area in which mask opening group areas adjacent to each other in the Y axis direction overlap with each other in the X axis direction, opening lengths in the Y axis direction become shorter toward the outer side of each of the mask opening group areas in the plan view.

Abstract: There is provided a method of vacuum evaporation comprising causing evaporated material (5) from vacuum evaporation source (20) furnished with container (1) with its one side open accommodating organic material (2) to form a film on opposed substrate (7), wherein the vacuum evaporation source has heating element (3) not fixed to the container, and being in contact with the surface of organic material held in the container, and wherein the organic material is evaporated by heating of the heating element only, the evaporated material released through at least one hole (6) or at least one slit made in the heating element.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine having a crankcase ventilation system is shown. The engine comprises a cylinder block and an oil pan which are assembled to define a crankcase. A crankshaft is rotatably held in the crankcase and including a counterweight. The cylinder block is formed with a fresh air inlet passage through which the interior of the crankcase and the outside of the engine are communicated. The fresh air inlet passage has a fresh air inlet opening which is exposed to the interior of the crankcase at a position close to the counterweight so that under rotation of the crankshaft, the opening is periodically covered and opened by the counterweight. A blow-by gas passage is provided through which the interior of the crankcase and the outside of the engine are communicated. The opening of the fresh air inlet passage is covered by the counterweight when the passage in the crankcase becomes relatively high, and opened by the same when the pressure in the crankcase becomes relatively low.

Abstract: A rotor type oil pump is arranged about a leading end of a crankshaft having an annular external gear of the pump concentrically disposed about the leading end. An oil pump driving mechanism is proposed, which comprises a cylindrical portion integrally defined by the leading end of the crankshaft, the cylindrical portion having the same diameter throughout the axial length thereof; and a tubular spacer member coaxially disposed on and splined to the cylindrical portion to rotate therewith, the tubular spacer member having such an external shape as to be latchingly engageable with the annular input member of the oil pump.

Abstract: An FIP (Formed In Place) gasket arrangement includes three hollow parts which are joined with each other in such a way as to sealingly separate the inside and outside thereof. Two of the parts have surfaces which are flush with each other and adjoin at a line extending between the inside and outside of the two parts. The remaining one of the parts has a surface joined with the surfaces of the two parts by interposing therebetween an FIP gasket. The two parts also have edges extending along the above mentioned line, one of the edges being partially chamferred to provide a chamber. The FIP gasket has a portion filling the chamber.

Abstract: A fan device is provided with a brake which uses a temperature responsive coil made of a shape memory alloy. The brake anchors the rotation of a fan blade when the temperature responsive coil assumes an extended shape where it urges a brake element into a brake apply position.
