Publication number: 20240128733Abstract: An attachment structure of a flat wire harness includes: an attachment target member; a flat wire harness; and an attachment part. In the flat wire harness, a through hole is formed in a part of a base material where a plurality of electrical wires are not disposed. The attachment part includes a rod-like part passing through the through hole, a fixing part provided to a first end portion of the rod-like part to fix the rod-like part to the attachment target member, and a retaining part provided to a second end portion of the rod-like part to prevent the rod-like part from coming out of the through hole. An outer size of the retaining part is larger than a dimension of the through hole, and the dimension of the through hole is equal to or larger than a thickness of the rod-like part.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicants: Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd., KABUSHIKI KAISHA TOYOTA JIDOSHOKKI, TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Tatsumi SATO, Kazuhiro NISHIMURA, Hirozumi OKANIWA, Tomohiko TATEISHI, Tatsuya AIDA, Mitsuhiro KATO, Akinori ISHIKAWA, Kazuhiro KUSUYAMA

Patent number: 5800665Abstract: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes preparing a semiconductor substrate having a surface and a mechanical strength; adhering a reinforcing plate to the surface of the semiconductor substrate with an adhesive to increase the mechanical strength of the semiconductor substrate and processing the semiconductor substrate; and immersing the semiconductor substrate with the reinforcing plate in a heated solvent to melt and dissolve the adhesive, thereby separating the semiconductor substrate from the reinforcing plate. An apparatus for performing the methods includes a holder for holding the semiconductor substrate with the reinforcing plate; a container for accommodating the holder and for containing a solvent that dissolves the adhesive and a heater for heating the solvent. When the adhesive between the semiconductor substrate and the reinforcing plate is sufficiently dissolved by the solvent, the semiconductor substrate is separated from the reinforcing plate.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 1996Date of Patent: September 1, 1998Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kazuhiro Okaniwa, Iwao Hayase

Patent number: 5770513Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a heat generating element disposed on a front surface of a semiconductor substrate and a cavity disposed within the semiconductor substrate opposite the heat generating element. In this structure, heat generated by the heat generating element is conducted through the substrate to the cavity, whereby the thermal conductivity of the device is improved. In a method for producing the semiconductor device, portions of the substrate at opposite sides of the heat generating element are selectively etched in a direction perpendicular to the front surface to form first holes (first etching process). Thereafter, the substrate is selectively etched from the front surface to form second holes beneath the respective first holes (second etching process). During the second etching process, the second holes are connected to each other, resulting in the cavity for heat radiation.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1995Date of Patent: June 23, 1998Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Kazuhiro Okaniwa

Patent number: 5221221Abstract: A process for fabricating an electron emitting vacuum type device having a tipped electron emitter supported on a substrate and disposed in a vacuum for emitting electrons. The process utilizes a substrate having opposed substantially planar front and rear surfaces. The front surface, carrying a series of conical depressions, is plated with a metallic layer of electron emitting material which lines the apertures to form metallic structures having tips buried in the substrate. A first material removal process, comprising grinding, is performed on the rear of the substrate to remove the bulk of the substrate but leaving the tips protected within the substrate. A second operation comprising a finishing operation is then applied to the rear surface to advance the plane of the rear surface from an as-ground to an as-finished position.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 1991Date of Patent: June 22, 1993Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Kazuhiro Okaniwa
