  • Patent number: 6268787
    Abstract: A ferrite-core housing case 20 has a first split case half 21, and a second split case half 22 that is openable with respect to the first split case half 22, and houses a ferrite core 1 for a flat cable. A pair of spring portions 27 which press the ferrite core 1 are formed in at least one of the first and second split case halves 21 and 22, and a fulcrum of each of the spring portions 27 is located on a side face 22b of the split case half while an acting point is located on a center side.

  • Patent number: 6217790
    Abstract: A BALUN transformer core material contains a Z-type hexagonal system ferrite having an in-plane anisotropy and a high magnetic permeability and such a high resonance frequency as to be in excess of a Snake's limiting line, and therefore, in the BALUN transformer core material, the frequency properties of the magnetic permeability are extremely good. A BALUN transformer core obtained by pressing and sintering this BALUN transformer core material has a high initial magnetic permeability and specific resistance. Moreover, a BALUN transformer obtained by applying a winding to the BALUN transformer core is provided with superior properties which are not poorer as compared with a BALUN transformer constituted of a conventional spinel ferrite, and it is a BALUN transformer having high properties which can be used in a high-frequency band of 300 MHz or more.

  • Patent number: 6114940
    Abstract: There is disclosed a BALUN transformer core material which has no magnetic permeability, contains a non-magnetic material and is not influenced by the frequency property of the magnetic permeability even in a high-frequency band. A BALUN transformer core which is obtained by pressing and sintering the BALUN transformer core material has no magnetic permeability and has a high specific resistance. A BALUN transformer which is obtained by applying a winding to the BALUN transformer core is a high-property BALUN transformer which can be operated in a high-frequency band of 600 MHz or more.

  • Patent number: 4623773
    Abstract: A nonflammable electrospark machining solution which provides a high machining rate composed primarily of a saccharide such as cane sugar, fruit sugar or malt sugar with the density of saccharide being 5 to 55% by weight. A preservative may be added such as benzoic acid, salicylic acid, dehydroacetic acid or ethyl para-hydroxybenzoate with the latter being preferred in an amount of 0.01 to 0.1% by weight of the machining solution. Also, an anticorrosive such as sodium nitride, sodium polyphosphate, sodium dichromate, sodium silicate and triethanol amine is preferably added in an amount of 0.05 to 0.1% by weight of the machining solution.

  • Patent number: 4536633
    Abstract: A dielectric fluid for electrical discharge machining which contains an ester solution. The dielectric fluid presents no fire hazard during use due to a high flash point, low combustibility and the fact that it is not easily ionizable. In addition, the dielectric is not malodorous and not toxic. The invention also encompasses a method for EDM machining using this dielectric fluid.
