  • Publication number: 20230422455
    Abstract: Provided is a housing that effectively serves to block high-frequency electromagnetic waves in addition to low-frequency electromagnetic waves. A housing that houses an electronic or electric device includes at least one of a copper layer serving as a diamagnetic layer and a nickel layer serving as a ferromagnetic layer, stacked on each of front and back sides of an iron base member, and a bright tin layer further stacked thereon as an outermost layer.
    Type: Application

    Inventors: Kodo Kawabata, Tatsuya Takemoto, Kunio Hane
  • Publication number: 20230321784
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a mechanical element includes: a first step of forming a mechanical element that has a sliding surface, which constitutes machinery, by precision machining; a second step of subjecting the sliding surface of the formed mechanical element to surface processing; and a third step of grinding down protrusions on the sliding surface of the mechanical element subjected to surface processing with a grinding agent composition in which ceramic particles are dispersed in oil and embedding the ceramic particles in cavities on the sliding surface of the mechanical element, the ceramic particles each having a hardness higher than a hardness of the mechanical element and being 0.01 µm or more and 0.5 µm or less in particle size.

  • Patent number: 5173202
    Abstract: Lubricant coating material and its manufacturing method that provide ceramic particulates which are almost spheroidal and fairly hard, or mixture of such particulates and lube oil, as lubricant coating material.This material can be supplied to rotating or rubbing parts of machinery, automobiles and ships. It embeds into metal surface of the parts and forms a thin coating. Thus, it creates ultra-smooth surfaces and reduces friction.
