  • Publication number: 20070006596
    Abstract: When a temperature of cooling steam being measured by a temperature-measuring device 13 in one combustor 2-x among combustors 2-1 through 2-8 is confirmed to be higher than a temperature of a predetermined time before by a predetermined value and temperatures of cooling steams being measured by temperature-measuring devices 13 in combustors 2-y and 2-z being adjacent to the combustor 2-x on both sides are confirmed to be lower than a temperature of a predetermined time before by a predetermined value, an occurrence of a flashback is detected in the combustor 2-x.

  • Publication number: 20060091747
    Abstract: A vibration motor and speaker device includes a speaker excitation magnet around a flat brushless vibration motor which acts as a speaker magnetic pole. the vibration motor has a case constituting motor housing that comprises a magnetic body on a lateral periphery, a ceiling portion made of a nonmagnetic body, and a detent torque generation part disposed on a bracket and receiving the magnetic field of a rotor magnet. The detent torque generation part is separated from the magnetic body portion of the motor housing thus reducing effects of the magnetic field of the speaker excitation magnet.

  • Patent number: 6998743
    Abstract: A brushless motor has a drive circuit component mounted on a stator which has plating conducted on a copper foil land to facilitate soldering. Need for a plating line from the outside is eliminated by providing an internal plating connection trace connected to a power feed terminal portion which is subsequently cut by a guide hole for an armature coil. An adhesive resin is applied to the stator where the circuit drive component is installed and the guide hole to adhere simultaneously to the stator to a bracket and the armature coil to the stator and bracket.

  • Patent number: 6710261
    Abstract: A conductive bond comprises conductive colloidal particles and a dispersant for dispersing the conductive colloidal particles. A multilayer printed circuit board includes a plurality of substrates, each having a conductive pattern on at least one face thereof. Any adjacent two of the substrates are separated by an insulating layer, and the conductive pattern of a first substrate of the two substrates faces the conductive pattern of a second substrate of the two substrate. The conductive pattern of a first substrate has one or more bumps for electrical connection to the second substrate. The bump and the conductive pattern of the second substrate are bonded to each other with the conductive bond applied to the tip of the bump.

  • Patent number: 6653638
    Abstract: In an ion generating apparatus, an electric field for generating ion is obtained between an electrode needle 3 and a counter electrode plate 4. A surface discharge path A (passing through an air discharge port 13a) which has the shortest distance between the electrode needle 3 and the counter electrode plate 4 and a surface discharge path B (not passing through the air discharge port 13a) are created. Distances of the surface discharge paths A and B are substantially enlarged by means of two flanges 17 provided on a sleeve 906 and a flange 19 provided on an end of an outer cylindrical portion of an electrode unit 8.

  • Publication number: 20030196833
    Abstract: A multilayer printed circuit board which can surely establish interlayer connection with low resistance. The multilayer printed circuit board comprises: a first substrate having a conductive pattern on one face and a non-penetration connection hole on the other face, for exposing the conductive pattern to outside; a second substrate having a conductive pattern formed on a face opposed to the other face of first substrate and a conductive bump on the conductive pattern integrally. The first substrate and the second substrate are integrated by engaging the bump of the second substrate with the connection hole of the first substrate and by intervening a conductive cement between the bumps and the conductive pattern exposed to outside from the connection holes.
