  • Publication number: 20240096235
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus (1) included in a welding training system includes a transmittance adjuster (14) capable of adjusting a transmittance of a window of a welding helmet in virtual space in multiple grades, and a display controller (17) configured to cause a display of an HMD (2) to display a situation of a welding operation in the virtual space at an illuminance corresponding to the adjusted transmittance. The transmittance adjuster (14) adjusts the transmittance based on a skill level of a trainee determined by a skill level determination unit (13).

  • Patent number: 8536686
    Abstract: According to an embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a first frame, a semiconductor element fixed to the first frame, a second frame, a third frame and a resin package. The second frame faces the first frame and is away from the first frame, the second frame being electrically connected to the semiconductor element via a metal wire. The resin package covers the semiconductor element, the first frame, and the second frame. The first frame and the second frame are exposed in one major surface of the resin package. The third frame juxtaposed to one of the first frame and the second frame, the third frame being continuously exposed from the major surface of the resin package to a side surface in contact with the major surface.

  • Patent number: 4655882
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing zinc-silica composite plated steel performed by electrolyzation in a galvanization bath containing fine grains of silica, particularly colloidal silica fine particles. Surfactant having cationic property, such as polyoxyethylenelaurylamine or dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride is further added to the galavinization bath so that a zinc-silica layer is formed over the steel. The plated steel surfaces are further treated with a silane coupling agent, such as gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. The steel plated with zinc-silica composite thus obtained has excellent resistance against corrosion and adhesion to organic paints or organic adhesives. The steel is suitable for various steel members and sheet iron for automobile bodies and parts which require high corrosion resistance.
