Abstract: A mask for partial plating capable of performing partial electroplating selectively on a prescribed portion on a surface of an electrically isolated metal member provided on an insulated board is provided. Methods for producing an insulated circuit board and using the mask for partial plating are also provided. The mask for partial plating includes an insulated sheet member having an opening corresponding to the portion to be plated, and a structure including a partial region on one surface in the thickness direction of the insulated sheet member being coated with one or plural conductive sheet members attached to the region. The conductive sheet member is adhered to the surface of the insulated sheet member, for example, with an adhesive or an adhesive member. The conductive sheet member may be engaged in a recessed portion formed on the surface of the insulated sheet member.

Abstract: A growth layer is uniformly grown on a substrate which is mounted on a susceptor. With a lower plate of the susceptor, at the outer periphery of a substrate mounting part, an outer periphery projection part, which is higher than the substrate mounting part, is formed around the substrate mounting part. Therefore, the substrate mounting part provides a bottom face of a recessed part formed within the lower plate, the substrate being mounted in this recessed part. In other words, the lower plate is provided with such a geometry that the substrate is fitted into the recessed part surrounded by the outer periphery projection part.

Abstract: Water lubricated bearing devices best adapted to be used in water or sea water are disclosed wherein a composite bearing member comprising an elastic bearing member lined with a thermoplastic resin compound is anchored to the inner wall of a bush fitted into a support member.
