Publication number: 20250205824Abstract: A laser processing method includes: holding a back surface side of a workpiece by a holding table such that a front surface side of the workpiece is exposed; and applying a laser beam from a laser beam irradiation unit along a plurality of planned division lines from the front surface side of the workpiece held by the holding table. In the applying, the laser beam is applied while changing an irradiation position of the laser beam on a front surface of the workpiece by a laser beam scanning unit disposed between an oscillator that oscillates the laser beam and a condenser that condenses light from the oscillator.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2024Publication date: June 26, 2025Inventors: Satoshi KUMAZAWA, Masatoshi NAYUKI, Keisuke NISHIMOTO

Publication number: 20250199629Abstract: A pen-type electronic apparatus is provided that includes a cylindrical housing having a grip portion configured to be gripped by a user; a pen shaft housed inside the housing; a sheet-like pressure sensor wound around a position that overlaps the grip portion on an outer surface of the pen shaft or an inner surface of the housing; and a cushion material either between the pen shaft and the pressure sensor or between the pressure sensor and the housing. The pressure sensor has a low-sensitivity region in a central portion of the grip portion along a long axis direction of the pen shaft. The low-sensitivity region has a lower sensitivity for detecting pressure from the user than other regions of the pressure sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 4, 2025Publication date: June 19, 2025Inventors: Takashi KIHARA, Keisuke NISHIMOTO

Publication number: 20220373264Abstract: A heat exchanger in which an end portion of a heat exchange element is appropriately joined to an insertion hole of a header. The heat exchanger includes a heat exchange element extending in a first direction and a header to which the heat exchange element is connected. The heat exchange element includes at least one heat transfer tube extending in the first direction and a fin provided on part of an edge portion of the at least one heat transfer tube in a second direction crossing orthogonally with the first direction. An end portion in the first direction of the heat exchange element includes an insertion part being inserted into an interior of the header, an abutment part abutting the header in a part other than the insertion part, and a spaced-apart part being spaced apart from the header in a part other than the insertion part.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2019Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Akira YATSUYANAGI, Tsuyoshi MAEDA, Takemi MATSUMOTO, Keisuke NISHIMOTO, Yuriko OKUMA
