  • Patent number: 6515562
    Abstract: A connection structure for dielectric waveguide lines, which includes dielectric waveguide lines including dielectric substrates, a pair of main conductor layers, dielectric substrates parallel with one another being sandwiched therebetween, two rows of side-wall through conductor groups arranged at intervals less than one half of a signal wavelength in a transmission direction of high-frequency signals, so as to electrically connect the pair of main conductor layers, and a sub conductor layer disposed between each pair of main conductor layers in parallel with the main conductor layers and electrically connected with the side-wall through conductor groups. The waveguides are stacked so that the main conductor layers partly overlap each other to define an overlap part, in which a coupling window is formed. This allows design freedom and easy fabrication.

  • Patent number: 6380825
    Abstract: A high-frequency dielectric waveguide line comprising a dielectric substrate with two conductor layers on its two surfaces, and a plurality of rows of through conductors in the substrate connecting the two conductor layers. The distances between the through conductors in each row are no more than half of the wavelength of the signal transmitted in the transmission direction of the waveguide. The waveguide line has a branching portion where a first waveguide line having a width d branches into second and third parallel waveguide lines both of width d. The portion of the waveguide at the branching point has a width of A, where 2d≦A≦3d. The first, second and third waveguide lines are connected without abrupt width enlargement. The branching waveguide line have small transmission losses for high-frequency signals.

  • Patent number: 6064350
    Abstract: There is provided a laminated aperture antenna in which a conductor wall composing the antenna is composed of a plurality of through conductors disposed at predetermined intervals and a plurality of sub-conductor layers disposed between dielectric layers of a dielectric substrate so as to electrically connect the plurality of through conductors within the dielectric substrate formed by laminating dielectric layers, or in which a resonant space is formed by a space of the dielectric surrounded by the conductor wall composing the antenna formed as described above, a lower conductor layer electrically connected to that and an aperture of the upper conductor layer corresponding to the antenna conductor wall. There is also provided a multi-layered wiring board comprising such laminated aperture antenna. Such laminated aperture antenna may be miniaturized and thinned and may be readily fabricated by the conventional lamination technology.

  • Patent number: 5844805
    Abstract: An automatic programming apparatus is provided to generate a NC program for processing a roll having a cylindrical part and axle parts. The apparatus includes a roll-profile setting module, a process-condition setting module, a process-order setting module and an automatic programming module. The roll-profile setting module establishes dimensional values of the roll between an operator and the apparatus at every locational code, while the process-condition setting module establishes a plurality of process conditions at every process code, interactively. The process-order setting module combines the locational codes with the process codes at every process order, optionally and interactively, so that the process order of the cylindrical part and the axle parts is set while allocating any one of the process conditions.

  • Patent number: 5771599
    Abstract: A method of measuring a roll diameter of a roll is provided. At first, a step-shaped conical master roll consisting of a plurality of diametrical parts is prepared and then, the diameters of the diametrical parts under predetermined standard temperature are measured. After mounting the master roll on a roll grinder under a temperature condition similar to that surrounding the roll mounted on the roll grinder, a diameter of one diametrical part, of which standard diameter is closest to the roll diameter of the roll, is measured. Next, a difference between the diameter value of the diametrical part and the standard diameter value is calculated as a correction value, so that the roll diameter value of the roll is corrected by the correction value.

  • Patent number: 4393281
    Abstract: A dual inline package switch assembly containing one or more separate electrical switches is disclosed which comprises an insulating housing consisting of a base and a cover to provide an interior space. The cover has at least one slit extending into the interior space in alignment with the switch. At least one actuating member is movably provided within the interior space and is formed integrally with an operating stub positioned in the slit for selectively braking and making an electrical connection between a pair of contacts fixed on the base in aligned and spaced relation. The slit has a center neck whose width is slightly smaller than the diameter of the operating stub for detenting movement of the actuating member. The actuating member side walls is positioned on housing base rails to maintain constant pressure between the actuating member conductive bridging strip and fixed pair of contacts.
