  • Patent number: 6976419
    Abstract: A forming method is provided that has surface pits, and the formed product thereof including a member adjust step for obtaining a member having a surface layer portion constructed by weak portions and high strength portion of relatively higher strength than the weak portions; and an inject step for injecting high pressure fluid to a surface of the member to remove at least a part of the weak portions for forming pits. That is, the weak portions are presented on the surface layer portion of the member on which the surface pits are to be formed. The high pressure fluid is injected to the surface layer portion to remove the weak portions from the member surface layer portion. The removed portion in the weak portions form the pits.

  • Patent number: 6913207
    Abstract: A thermal spraying method includes the steps of: (1) preparing a speed-increasing means for adding energy to the heated material or the heating material to increase a flying speed of the material; and (2) adding energy to the heated material or the heating material by the speed-increasing means in such a manner that a flying speed of the heated material or the heating material increases until the material reaches a surface of an object.

  • Patent number: 5827606
    Abstract: In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the resistivity of the second layer is larger than that of the first layer, it is possible to prevent the generation of noise electric wave. In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the layer for preventing noise electric wave has the porosity of not more than 20%, it is possible to prevent the radio noise. In the electrode for preventing noise electric wave according to the present invention in which the high-fusing conductive material layer exists between the substrate and the resisting material layer, it is possible to prevent the formation of the concave portion.
