  • Patent number: 11971755
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a chassis, a keyboard device which is installed on the upper surface side of the chassis and has a plurality of keycaps and a frame which is installed on the upper surface side of the chassis and isolates the respective keycaps of the keyboard device from one another, in which each of at least some of the plurality of keycaps has an upper plate which forms an operation surface, and side walls on four sides which are provided so as to hang down from a peripheral edge part of the upper plate and face the frame respectively, and in at least the side wall on one side of the side walls on the four sides, a flow path formation part which widens a clearance between that side wall and the frame and thereby forms an air flow path is provided.

  • Publication number: 20240121909
    Abstract: A centrifugal fan includes: a fan having a motor that rotates around a central axis, and a plurality of blades provided on an outer periphery of the motor; and a casing which accommodates the fan, and has an intake port provided in the axial direction of the central axis, and an exhaust port provided in a direction orthogonal to the central axis, wherein an end surface of each of the plurality of blades that faces the intake port is provided with an inclined portion that inclines such that a height thereof in the axial direction gradually decreases toward the motor, and the plurality of blades include a plurality of blade groups having different start point positions at which the inclined portions start to incline in a direction from the tips of the blades toward the motor.

  • Publication number: 20240121916
    Abstract: A heat radiation structure includes a mesh that abuts on a surface of a die, and a vapor chamber that interposes the mesh between the surface of the die and the vapor chamber. The mesh includes a heat generation element abutting range portion that is provided at a central portion of the mesh, is impregnated with a liquid metal, and abuts on the surface of the die to receive heat, and a pair of heat generation element non-abutting range portions that continuously extends from both sides of the heat generation element abutting range portion and does not abut on the surface of the die. Each of the pair of heat generation element non-abutting range portions is fixed to the vapor chamber via a sheet material. Each of a pair of the heat generation element non-abutting range portions is interposed between a pair of the sheet materials.

  • Publication number: 20120189087
    Abstract: An oscillation power range monitor has: an input signal processing section that calculates a normalized cell value from LPRM signals input from local power range monitors; a soundness checking basic signal generating section that generates a simulated cell value that is variable on a time series basis; and a trip determining section that receives the normalized cell value and the simulated cell value respectively from the input signal processing section and the soundness checking basic signal generating section as input, compares the normalized cell value and the simulated cell value with a determination threshold value and outputs a scram trip signal when either of them exceeds the determination threshold value.

  • Patent number: 4948817
    Abstract: Pre-formed particles of an uncrosslinked, linear low-density polyethylene have a crystalline structure characterized in that two endothermic peaks appear on a DSC curve obtained by differential scanning calorimetry of the pre-foamed particles (said DSC curve having been obtained by heating 1-5 mg of the pre-foamed particles to 220.degree. C. at a rate of 10.degree. C./min by a differential scanning calorimeter) and the energy at the endothermic peak on the higher-temperature side is 5 J/g or more. A process for the production of the pre-foamed particles of the uncrosslinked, linear low-density polyethylene is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 4656197
    Abstract: Pre-foamed particles are formed of a polyethylene resin obtained by crosslinking a linear super-low density polyethylene having a density of 0.880-0.914 g/cm.sup.3 and a melt flow rate of 0.01-10 g/10 minutes. The gel content of the pre-foamed particles is 0.06-45%.
