Patent number: 10385998Abstract: Passage members each have a required width, a required height, and a required length, and are provided at middle portions in the width direction with fluid passages, respectively. As coupling means, two bolts are used. The middle portion in the width direction of each of the passage members has opposite end portions that are each provided with a female screw and a bolt insertion hole to be faced by the female screw, respectively. The upper bolt is inserted into one of the passage members and is screwed into the female screw of the other passage member. The lower bolt is inserted into the other passage member and is screwed into the female screw of the one of the passage members. The passage members are coupled with use of the two upper and lower bolts whereby a seal member is securely fixed.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: FUJIKIN INCORPORATEDInventors: Kohei Shigyou, Takashi Hirose, Kouji Nishino, Ryousuke Dohi, Naofumi Yasumoto

Patent number: 9163748Abstract: This invention provides a fluid control device capable of making compact a fluid control device in which a valve and a limit switch are combined. A valve 6 includes a piston 26 as a moving member which includes a protruding portion protruding from an opening of a casing 21, and which linearly moves according to opening and closing of the valve 6 so as to abut against a limit switch 7. The limit switch 7 is made to face the piston 26 and is attached via a limit switch positioning unit 8 so as to be adjustable about its position. The limit switch positioning unit 8 includes a first bolt 42 fixed to a body 2, a second bolt 43 fixed to the limit switch 7, and a connection screw 44 which connects both the bolts 42, 43. The first bolt 42 and the second bolt 43 have different pitches from each other.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2010Date of Patent: October 20, 2015Assignee: FUJIKIN INCORPORATEDInventors: Takashi Hirose, Hiroshi Ogawa, Toshihide Yoshida, Kohei Shigyou
