  • Patent number: 9170565
    Abstract: A structure includes a wristwatch case; an inner frame arranged inside the wristwatch case and having an upper surface provided with a positioning fitting recess; a timepiece module arranged as being positioned inside the inner frame; and a parting plate which is provided with a positioning pin that is provided on a lower surface of the parting plate facing the upper surface of the inner frame, and that is fitted into the positioning fitting recess of the inner frame, thereby positioning the parting plate with respect to respect to the inner frame. As a result, in a state where the timepiece module is arranged and positioned inside the inner frame arranged in the wristwatch case, the positioning pin of the parting plate can be fitted into the positioning fitting recess of the inner frame. Accordingly, the parting plate can be accurately positioned with respect to the inner frame.

  • Patent number: 9041607
    Abstract: The radio wave receiver includes the metallic case body, the metallic rear case, and the antenna inside the case body. The screw portion is formed in the metal wall of the case body. The coupling resin member having an electrical insulating property is coupled to the rear case through a great number of fine irregularities formed in the metal wall thereof. The screw portion which engages with the screw portion is formed on the coupling resin member. The case body and the rear case are coupled to each other with the screw portions. The case body and the rear case are electrically insulated from each other by the electrical insulating function of the coupling resin member so as to improve receiving sensitivity of the antenna.

  • Patent number: 8599076
    Abstract: The radio wave receiver includes the antenna. The device body and the closing member are coupled to each other by making the screw portion of the fixation screw being inserted through the through-hole of the metallic closing member engage with the screw portion of the device body. The coupling resin member having electrically insulating property is coupled to the irregularities of a nanometer size formed on a metal surface of the closing member, a through-hole is formed in the coupling resin member, and thereby electrical insulation between the metallic device body and the metallic closing member which are screwed together with the fixation screw is ensured so as to improve receiving sensitivity of the antenna.
