Publication number: 20250206929Abstract: An object of the present invention is to obtain an ethylene-based polymer composition suitable for polyethylene pipes that satisfy the performance of PE112 (having MRS of 11.2 MPa or higher) requiring higher creep strength, as well as excellent moldability and low sagging properties. The present invention relates to an ethylene-based polymer composition containing: 40 to 60 mass % of an ethylene homopolymer (A) having MFR measured at a temperature of 190° C. under a load of 2.16 kg (MFR2) within a range of 100 to 600 g/10 min; and 60 to 40 mass % of a copolymer (B) of ethylene and an ?-olefin having four or more carbon atoms [ethylene/?-olefin copolymer (B)] [provided that a total amount of (A)+(B) is 100 mass %], in which the following requirements (i) to (iii) are satisfied. (i) A density is within a range of 940 to 960 kg/m3. (ii) An amount of a component with GPC-measured log M?7 is within a range of 0.35 to 0.80%. (iii) An amount of a component with GPC-measured log M?3 is 1.85% or less.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2023Publication date: June 26, 2025Applicant: MITSUI CHEMICALS, INC.Inventors: Hiroko TSUCHIYA, Kensei INOUE, Takeshi KARINO, Hiroshi UEHARA, Kaoru OHSHIMIZU, Hiroshi KUNIEDA, Fumiya YOSHIDA

Patent number: 11480507Abstract: A flow inspection method includes: a flow step of making powder resin flow in a housing portion of a flow tank; a viscosity measurement step of measuring a viscosity of the powder resin flowing in the housing portion; and a judgment step of judging whether or not an estimate of a bulk density of the powder resin flowing in the housing portion is less than or equal to a bulk density permissible value, the estimate being obtainable from a correlation, calculated in advance, between the bulk density and a viscosity of the powder resin flowing in the housing portion, and a measured value of the viscosity obtained in the viscosity measurement step.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Kenji Miyanaga, Hiroshi Kunieda, Yosuke Suzuki, Naofumi Sugai, Takao Endo

Patent number: 11371872Abstract: First to eighth laser measurement sections (30a) to (30h) of a laser measurement unit (30) measures a height of a surface of powder resins (15) in a coil insertion range CA for every angular degree in a circumferential direction of a stator core (2). A control unit (18) computes the number of points where the height of the surface is lower than a predetermined height among measurement results at multiple points measured by the first to eighth laser measurement sections (30a) to (30h), where the number of points is defined as an index value indicative of a dispersion of the measurement results. When it has been determined that the index value exceeds a first predetermined value, a notification is issued by outputting from a speaker (32) a sound indicative of the fact that the index value that has been computed exceeds the first predetermined value.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2019Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Hiroomi Shimizu, Hiroaki Matsumoto, Kenji Miyanaga, Junji Nakajima, Hiroshi Kunieda

Patent number: 11192136Abstract: To provide a powder resin coating method and powder resin coating device which can maintain a powder surface as flat irrespective of changes in the average particle size of powder resin. A powder resin coating device (1) includes a powder fluidizing bed (2) storing powder resin, a vibration mechanism (5) connected to the powder fluidizing bed (2), and a control device (8) controlling the frequency of the vibration mechanism (5). The control device (8) includes an average particle size estimation unit (82) that estimates the average particle size of powder resin stored within the powder fluidizing bed (2); an optimum frequency determination unit (83) that determines an optimum frequency for causing the powder surface to flatten based on the average particle size estimated by the average particle size estimation unit (82); and a frequency control unit (84) causing the vibration mechanism (5) to vibrate at the determined optimum frequency.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2018Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Hiroshi Kunieda, Kenji Miyanaga, Junji Nakajima, Hiroomi Shimizu, Hirokazu Akiyoshi

Patent number: 9550275Abstract: A disc-shaped grindstone 1 includes a plurality of split grindstones provided in an outer circumferential surface of a disc-shaped base 3. At least a part of the split grindstones include a moving grindstone 6 which is movable in the axial direction of the disc-shaped base 3. Since a part of the split grindstones 4 is the moving grindstone 6 which is movable in the axial direction, the width of the disc-shaped grindstone 1 may be changed in a manner such that the moving grindstone 6 is moved in the axial direction. Accordingly, it is possible to promptly handle a plurality of kinds of grinding targets without replacing the disc-shaped grindstone 1.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2015Date of Patent: January 24, 2017Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Daisuke Chiba, Tadatomo Hatayama, Masakazu Okayasu, Satoshi Kaneko, Masayuki Kinoshita, Hiroshi Kunieda, Munehiko Higuchi
