  • Patent number: 7878229
    Abstract: Introduction guides 12 are provided above and below a sheet-introduction opening portion of a pressure-reduced chamber 10, and heating means 17 is provided between the introduction guides. Each resin sheet 3 is attracted and attached respectively to the circumferential surface of a corresponding emboss roller 11 by reducing pressure. Pins 112 of the emboss roller 11 are truncated cone-shaped. The ratio of the total area of the lower bases of the pins 112 to the area of the circumferential surface of the emboss roller is 0.5 or more. The rising angle ? of the pin side face, in the vertical plane including the central axis of the pins 112, is in the range from 50 degrees to 70 degrees. Furthermore, a multilayered hollow structure plate 140 is formed by attaching non-air-permeable sheets 130 onto both the front and back of a core member obtained by fusing together hollow protrusions 112 in two thermoplastic resin sheets.

  • Patent number: 7201257
    Abstract: A disk brake device has a rotary brake disk, at least one pad, and a mount. The pad has a guide portion disposed on one end of the pad in the rotational direction of the brake disk. The mount has a support portion that slidably supports the guide portion, so that the pad can move in the axial direction of the brake. A radially outer pressure receiving surface and a radially inner pressure receiving surface are formed on an end of the pad in the rotational direction of the brake disk and serve to receive a reaction force from the mount in order to prevent the pad from moving in the rotational direction of the brake disk. A support member serves to bias the pad in an axial and rotational direction so as to reduce the production of audible sounds.

  • Patent number: 6039237
    Abstract: A heating tip in which an insertion cavity is formed in a tip substrate made of copper or copper alloy for insertion and containment of a heat generating portion, wherein the inner circumferential wall surface of the insertion cavity is formed by forging into a non-circular cross sectional shape which is identical with a non-circular cross sectional shape on the outer circumferential surface of the heat generating portion. The insertion cavity has the non-circular cross sectional shape and, accordingly, the area of contact with the heat generating portion is enlarged compared with a case of a circular cross sectional shape with the hole volume being assumed identical, thereby increasing the heat conductivity from the heat generating portion and enhancing the temperature rising characteristics and the thermal response of the heating tip. Since the insertion cavity is formed by forging loss of the material can be decreased, neatly and easily and, in addition, working life of the tool can be extended.
