    Abstract: A high frequency circuit module having a non-reciprocal circuit element includes a circuit substrate that is composed of a multilayer substrate; and a high frequency circuit element having the non-reciprocal circuit element provided on the circuit substrate. The non-reciprocal circuit element includes a lower yoke composed of ferromagnetic membranes formed in the accommodating portion of the circuit substrate and the bottom surface; a ferrite member accommodated in the accommodating portion; first, second and third central conductors disposed on the ferrite member via a dielectric; a magnet; and an upper yoke disposed to cover the magnet and the accommodating portion. When the lower yoke is formed of the ferromagnetic membrane, the number of essential elements is less, productivity is high, a cost is low, and the non-reciprocal circuit element has a small size in a thickness direction, compared to a conventional lower yoke made of a metal plate.

  • Patent number: 5279910
    Abstract: The improved battery for reversible operation at ambient temperature comprises a negative electrode, a composite positive electrode which is composed of an ion-conductive high-molecular weight compound that has at least one ionic compound dissolved therein and that has a polyether structure and ion conductivity, an electrochemically active material and, optionally, an electron conductive material, and an electrolyte which is made of an ion-conductive high-molecular weight compound that has at least one ionic compound dissolved therein and that has a polyether structure and ion conductivity. The improvement is such that said composite positive electrode and said electrolyte are formed by exposure to an active radiation such as ultraviolet rays or ionizing radiation. Thanks to the improvement in electrolyte and positive electrode, the battery can be fabricated with great ease, is entirely free from the possibility of electrolyte leakage and has high long-term reliability and safety.

  • Patent number: 5260005
    Abstract: A process for forming a container of acrylonitrile polymers by biaxial-orientation blow-molding a preform. A preform of thermoplastic resin, mainly acrylonitrile polymers, is irradiated with an electron beam or a gamma-ray. Immediately after the irradiation, the preform is heated at 40.degree. C. or higher to reduce residual acrylonitrile monomer in the preform to 0.1 ppm or less. Then, the preform is biaxial-orientation blow molded to form a container.

  • Patent number: 4758922
    Abstract: A miniaturized circuit for high frequency operation is formed of four successively superimposed dielectric layers, with a microstrip resonance element being sandwiched between two inner dielectric layers which themselves are sandwiched between opposing ground plane layers, and the other dielectric layers being respectively formed upon these ground plane layers. Circuit connection patterns are formed on the outer faces of the latter dielectric layers, and circuit components mounted thereon to form two circuit sections. The microstrip resonance element can be utilized as an inductive reactance element of an oscillator circuit, or as a filter circuit resonator element, and is effectively shielded by the ground plane layers which also effectively mutually isolate the two circuit sections.
