The extending region is provided with wiring lines, and at least some wiring lines, which are disposed to be adjacent to each other, are correspondingly disposed in a plurality of different layers.

Abstract: In a Doppler ultrasonic flowmeter, to obtain a precise flow rate a flow rate calculation equation that corrects a quantization error occurring to a spatial resolution is used. An ultrasonic transducer transmits/receives ultrasonic pulses, and subject the resulting received signals to A/D conversion after a predetermined process is applied thereto. A computation control section calculates the flow velocity distribution. Then, the flow rate is calculated based on the flow rate calculation equation, which corrects the quantization error occurring to the spatial resolution.

Abstract: NiO particles and YSZ particles are mixed with each other at a predetermined ratio. A binder is added, followed by being dispersed in a solvent to prepare granular particles by a spray drying method. The particles are used to obtain a compact by press forming. A YSZ paste is printed on one end surface of the compact, and the compact and the paste are sintered together to prepare an anode and a solid electrolyte. A paste of La0.6Sr0.4MnO3 is printed on one exposed end surface of the solid electrolyte, followed by being heated to calcine a cathode. Thus, an electrolyte-electrode joined assembly is obtained.

Abstract: A flattening layer is provided between an anode and a solid electrolyte. The flattening layer has a porosity which is set to be smaller than that of the anode. Large diameter pores, which are open at an end surface of the anode on a side facing the solid electrolyte, are filled with the flattening layer, and projections, which bulge out of the end surface, are buried therewith to flatten the projections. Therefore, when the solid electrolyte is formed on the flattening layer, the solid electrolyte is prevented from any depressions and bulges on which stress is concentrated.

Abstract: In a permanent magnet rotor, a power transmitting shaft is connected to an axial end of a solid cylindrical permanent magnet, and a reinforcement sleeve is fitted on the outer circumferential surface of the permanent magnet. Thus, the shaft is not required to be passed through the permanent magnet as was the case with the conventional permanent magnet rotor for the purpose of transmitting the rotational torque and increasing the overall rigidity, and the increase in the axial dimension of the rotor due to the reduction in the cross sectional area of the permanent magnet can be avoided. Also, because the sleeve surrounds the permanent magnet, the resistance to centrifugal stress resulting from a high speed rotation and repeated bending stress owing to vibrations can be improved.

Abstract: A wiring terminal is formed on a wiring substrate, and an electrode is formed on a semiconductor device. The width of the wiring terminal is smaller than the width of the electrode. When the semiconductor device is mounted on the wiring substrate, the wiring terminal becomes embedded in the electrode due to applied pressure.

Abstract: A ceramic composite particle having an average particle size of 0.1-120 &mgr;m, which comprises uniformly dispersed fine ceramic particle phases and a binder phase. The fine ceramic particle phases, each having a particle size of 1 nm to 1 &mgr;m and comprising a ceramic primary particle, are bound together through the binder phase which is formed by a reaction between a sintering aid and a ceramic particle. The ceramic composite particle may be produced by heat-treating a homogeneous mixture of the ceramic particle and the sintering aid until the binder phase appears. The ceramic composite particle has a good moldability and provides a highly densified sintered body with a high strength.

Abstract: A slurry tank which stores an inorganic slurry includes a funnel-shaped lower tank portion having a discharge port. A valve is positioned in the slurry tank above the discharge port and complementary in shape to an inner surface of the funnel-shaped lower tank portion of the slurry tank. The valve can be moved by an actuator selectively out of the discharge port to allow the inorganic slurry to be discharged from the discharge port and into the discharge port to stop discharging the inorganic slurry from the discharge port. A proportional pump is connected to the discharge port for supplying the inorganic slurry at a constant rate to a mold for injection molding when the valve is moved out of the discharge port by the actuator. A cylinder is connected to the proportional pump for being supplied with the inorganic slurry from the proportional pump and the cylinder opens into the mold.

Abstract: In the present invention, a target receiver terminal information storage unit stores a plurality of target receiver terminal numbers corresponding to a plurality of target receiver terminals. The control unit determines idle/busy information stored with a corresponding terminal number as a pair, selects a target receiver terminal number according to a predetermined priority, and outputs the selected number. A sender can thereby automatically call up an appropriate target receiver terminal by dialing a registered receiver identification number. The control unit uses connection information as well as idle/busy information as a determining element in selecting a number. Therefore, a registered number conversion service user can distribute calls to a plurality of target receiver terminals. Besides, the user can select a plurality of target receiver terminal numbers through an inquiry to a switching unit about the idle/busy state without storing idle/busy information or connection information in the storage unit.
