  • Publication number: 20240102967
    Abstract: A vibration test device (100) is a vibration test device for testing vibration of a pipeline (10) attached to a structure. The vibration test device includes a plurality of support members (101a, 101b) that are joined to a wall surface with a predetermined gap therebetween and support the pipeline, a first fixing member (102a) that fastens the pipeline to a first support member at a position where one end of the pipeline protrudes from the first support member, a second fixing member (102b) that fastens the pipeline to a second support member at a position where another end of the pipeline protrudes from the second support member, a vibration-applying portion (103) that applies vibration force to one of the support members, a detection unit (104) that detects vibration of the pipeline, and a measurement unit (105) that measures a vibration characteristic of the pipeline.

  • Publication number: 20240102883
    Abstract: A vibration reproduction device (100) is a vibration reproduction device that reproduces vibration of a pipeline (10) attached to a structure, and includes: a plurality of support members (101a, 101b) for supporting the pipeline; a fixing members (102a, 102b) for fastening the pipeline to the support members; support bases (103a, 103b) that are joined to the support members and to which a vibration force is applied; and viscoelastic members (106a, 106b) provided between the support bases and the ground.

  • Publication number: 20230311258
    Abstract: An electrostatic chuck includes a ceramic dielectric substrate and a base plate. The base plate includes a communicating path configured to allow a coolant to pass. The communicating path includes a first flow path part having a pair of side surfaces along a first direction. The first direction is along a flow of the coolant. When viewed along a stacking direction, one side surface of the pair of side surfaces includes a plurality of convex portions and a plurality of concave portions. The plurality of convex portions is convex in a second direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The second direction is from the other side surface toward the one side surface of the pair of side surfaces. The plurality of concave portions is convex in an opposite direction of the second direction.

  • Publication number: 20220319898
    Abstract: An electrostatic chuck includes a base plate and a ceramic dielectric substrate. The ceramic dielectric substrate has a first major surface. The first major surface includes at least a first region and a second region. At least one first gas introduction hole connected to at least one of multiple first grooves. The first grooves include a first boundary groove, and at least one first in-region groove. Multiple second grooves and at least one second gas introduction hole are provided in the second region. The second grooves are include a second boundary groove extending along the first boundary and are provided to be most proximal to the first boundary. A groove end portion-end portion distance between the first boundary groove and the second boundary groove is smaller than a groove end portion-end portion distance between the first boundary groove and the first in-region groove.

  • Patent number: 11145532
    Abstract: An electrostatic chuck includes a base plate and a ceramic dielectric substrate. The ceramic dielectric substrate has a first major surface. The first major surface includes at least a first region and a second region. At least one first gas introduction hole is connected to at least one of multiple first grooves. At least one second groove are provided in the first region. The multiple first grooves have substantially circular planar configurations and are provided concentrically. The second groove is connected to at least two of the first grooves. When projected onto a plane perpendicular to a first direction from the base plate toward the ceramic dielectric substrate, at least a portion of the first gas introduction hole overlaps at least one of the first groove or the second groove at a portion where the first groove and the second groove are connected.
