  • Patent number: 11203941
    Abstract: A stationary blade includes a main unit having a hollow blade structure formed from a metal plate by plastic forming. The stationary blade includes a blade tail section. In a blade tail upper portion, the metal plate has a concave-shaped recess and a rib formed on an inner surface side thereof, and the metal plate further has slits formed by slitting on a blade pressure side thereof, so that droplets affixed on a blade surface can be guided into an inside of the hollow blade when the blade tail section is joined to the hollow blade main unit. The recess in the metal plate is covered so as to be lidded by a suction-side protrusion of a suction-side metal plate from a blade suction side to thereby form a hollow blade tail section. The metal plates are welded together to the main unit.

  • Publication number: 20150041687
    Abstract: A first sealing resin seals a space between a light emitting element and an insulating member, and a second sealing resin seals a space between a light receiving element and the insulating member. The first sealing resin includes a plurality of first particles having a refractive index higher than that of the first sealing resin. The content ratio of the first particles in the first sealing resin changes stepwise or continuously as the particles approach the insulating member from the light-emitting element. The content ratio of the first particles in the first sealing resin in a range up to 10 ?m from the light emitting element is higher than the content ratio of the first particles in the first sealing resin in a range up to 10 ?m from the insulating member.
