  • Patent number: 6795016
    Abstract: A jig for heat treatment of a workpiece capable of use over a long period of time by minimizing or eliminating deformation thereof caused by thermal distortion and which is capable of performing heat treatment of the workpiece by reducing the amount of heat energy absorbed by the jig in a heat-treatment furnace. The jig includes an outer peripheral frame formed by a plurality of members and a mounting portion arranged inside the outer peripheral frame and also formed by a plurality of members. The workpiece rests on the mounting portion during use. The members of the outer peripheral frame and mounting portion are movably connected to each other with an expansion space being provided between each adjacent member capable of absorbing thermal expansion of the member during thermal treatment.

  • Publication number: 20030180677
    Abstract: A jig for heat treatment of a work capable of using for long period by eliminating or minimizing the deformation thereof due to thermal distortion and capable of efficiently performing the heat treatment of the work by reducing the amount of heat energy absorbed by the jig in a heat treating furnace, comprising an outer peripheral frame (2) formed of a plurality of members and a placing part (3) disposed in the outer peripheral frame (2) and formed of a plurality of members for placing the work (4), wherein the members are movably connected to each other, and the connection of the members forming the outer peripheral frame (2) to each other and the connection of these members to the members forming the placing part (3) are performed through extension intervals (5) capable of absorbing the extension of the members when the members are thermally expanded.

  • Patent number: 6528931
    Abstract: An electric light bulb with a base 1, including a positioning ring 7 adapted to be fitted onto and mounted to a cylindrical-shaped base 2 which holds a glass bulb 3 enclosing therein filaments 6. The positioning ring includes elastic pieces 11 and weld pieces 12 formed on a fitting hole 8, through which the base is inserted, the elastic pieces being adapted to resiliently abut against an outer peripheral surface of the base, the weld pieces being adapted to be welded to the outer peripheral surface of the base. The weld pieces 12 are securely welded to the outer peripheral surface of the base after the elastic pieces are made to abut against the outer peripheral surface of the base.
