  • Publication number: 20080037202
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic equipment of a high design property having an optical disc drive mounted thereon and an inexpensive and high-quality opening and closing mechanism for a tray door. The electronic equipment includes a front panel on a front surface of the equipment, and a link 25 rotatably engaged with a tray door 22. The tray door is provided with cams 22b engaged with cam pins 20b provided on the front panel to control the locus of the movement of the tray door. The discharging movement of the tray causes the link to be pushed and rotated by the tray, whereby the tray door is slid to below the tray with its upper design surface left turned upwards in the form of the movement controlled by the rotation of the link and the locus of the cams, and in this manner, the tray door is opened.

  • Patent number: 3967006
    Abstract: Dry process for the production of inorganic granular substances coated with plastics, characterized in that a radical-polymerizable vinylic monomer carried on the surface of an inorganic granular substance is brought in a gaseous phase into contact with gaseous sulfur dioxide to effect polymerization of the monomer. The resulting plastic-coated inorganic substances are useful in various fields of industry, for example, as fillers, construction materials, molding materials, electrode materials, delayed-action fertilizers, etc.
