  • Patent number: 8042834
    Abstract: Provided is a front structure of a vehicle 1, and the front structure includes a pair of side frames 2 and a first cross member 31. The pair of side frames 2 are disposed respectively on both sides of the vehicle in a vehicle-width direction and extend in a front-to-rear direction. The first cross member extends in the vehicle-width direction, and connects front-end portions 25 of the pair of side frames 2. Each of the front-end portions 25 of the side frames 2 includes a protruding portion 26 that extends frontwards integrally thereof beyond the first cross member 31. In the event of a frontal collision of the vehicle 1, the protruding portions 26 absorb the produced energy, so that the amount of deformation of portions respectively of the side frames 2 located at rear sides of the front-end portions 25 can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 6105698
    Abstract: When an external force acts on a front side of a cab 10 at the time of a car collision or the like, the front side of the cab is deformed, so that a passenger space 15 is reduced from a value C to a value d. On the other hand, a power plant 3 advances because of an inertia force, and an oil pan 2 of the power plant 3 is brought into striking engagement with a suspension cross member 1, and therefore is prevented from further advancing. The value of the distance b between the power plant 3 and a rising portion 16 of a floor panel 14, as well as the value of the distance a between the suspension cross member 1 and the oil pan 2, is suitably determined, and also deforming properties of deformable members of the oil pan 2 are suitably determined. By doing so, the reduction or deformation of the passenger space 15 from the power plant side is prevented, thereby securing the safety of the passengers.

  • Patent number: 5915757
    Abstract: Provided is an electrostatic protective device which is highly effective in protecting relatively vulnerable devices such as IC's and LSI's from electrostatic damages, and a method for fabricating an electrostatic protective device which can simplify the structure as compared with the conventional devices sealed in a glass container, and can reduce the size and cost of the device. The chip type electrostatic protective device comprises an inner insulating layer made of organic resin material and provided with a plurality of holes for defining air gaps, a pair of outer insulating layers placed on both sides of the inner insulating layer, and circuit segments defining a discharge gap in each of the air gaps. Holes for interconnection are formed in the laminated assembly, and the interior of each of the holes is turned electroconductive.

  • Patent number: 5879568
    Abstract: A multilayer printed circuit board small in interlayer thickness, capable of fine wiring, minimized in IVH and BVH diameters, high in strength and also excellent in wire bonding workability can be produced by a process comprising the steps of coating a thermosetting resin varnish compounded with electrically insulating whiskers on a roughened side of a copper foil, semi-curing the resin by heating to form a thermosetting resin layer, integrally laminating it on an interlayer board in which plated through-holes and conductor circudits have been formed, and roughening the cured thermosetting resin layer on the via hole wall surfaces with a roughening agent.
