Abstract: In a camera module 1 of the present invention, a mechanical shutter 2 is provided above a top surface of a lens unit 3, and a protrusion section formed to an end of a lens 31 is held in a depression section formed on a back surface of the mechanical shutter 2. With the arrangement, it is possible to cause the camera module 1 employing the mechanical shutter 2 to be smaller and thinner at the same time.

Abstract: A solar cell module 1 includes a plurality of solar cells 30. Each of the plurality of solar cells 30 is disposed on a corresponding one of a plurality of pad sections in such a manner that the each of the plurality of solar cells 30 is electrically connected to the corresponding one of the plurality of pad sections. The each of the plurality of solar cells 30 is electrically connected to a corresponding inner lead section 120. A cathode section 114 and an anode section 116 feed an electric current generated by the plurality of solar cells 30. A metal lead frame is provided such that the plurality of pad sections, the inner lead sections 120, the cathode section 114 and the anode section 116 are provided therein as a part of the lead frame itself. This configuration enables the solar cell module 1 to endure against bending stress and to be curved. As a result, it is possible to provide a solar cell module which can be disposed along a curved surface of an electronics device.

Abstract: There are provided a first casing 100A that has a photosensor section 113 for capturing an image, a second casing 100B that has a lens section 122 for projecting the image of a subject onto the photosensor section 113 of the first casing 100A and a connection section 100C that foldably connects the first casing 100A with the second casing 100B. The photosensor section 113 and the lens section 122 are arranged so that the photosensor section 113 and the lens section 122 are superposed on each other in a state in which the first casing 100A and the second casing 100B are folded together. With this arrangement, the folding type camera device and the folding type portable telephone equipped with this device can be reduced in thickness.

Abstract: A reflow apparatus includes at least one heating unit. Each of the at least one heating unit includes an air blower for circulating air; a partition for defining an air circulating path; at least a first slit heater and a second slit heater for heating a workpiece with the circulating air, the workpiece having a first surface and a second surface; and a furnace housing for accommodating the workpiece. The air blower includes a first fan for blowing the air toward the first surface of the workpiece, a second fan for blowing the air toward the second surface of the workpiece, and a motor for rotating the first fan and the second fan. The first fan and the second fan are provided in correspondence with the at least the first slit heater and the second slit heater.
