Publication number: 20190319500Abstract: The split core unit includes a split core, a coil, and an insulating member insulating the split core from the coil. The insulating member has end-surface insulating members. Each end-surface insulating member has, at a circumferential-direction center of the outer circumferential surface, a straight-shaped first groove extending in the axial direction. A yoke portion of the split core has, at a circumferential-direction center of the outer circumferential surface, a straight-shaped second groove extending in the axial direction over the entire length of the split core. The first grooves of the two end-surface insulating members and the second groove of the split core communicate with each other. The two first grooves appear to overlap the second groove as seen in the axial direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2017Publication date: October 17, 2019Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Masaki SHINOHARA, Daisuke SHIJO, Tatsuya KITANO, Norito KANDA

Patent number: 7075603Abstract: In a semi-transmission type liquid crystal display and a method for fabricating the same, a reflective electrode such as aluminum layer and a transparent electrode such as ITO film are used to form a pixel electrode that is provided on an organic film having an uneven surface. In order to effectively restrict the battery effect between a reflective electrode and a transparent electrode, a surface of the organic film is put in a plasma-processing and then is washed by a washing liquid. Thereafter, the transparent electrode is formed and then the reflective electrode such as a double layer electrode of the aluminum layer and the molybdenum layer are formed.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2002Date of Patent: July 11, 2006Assignee: NEC LCD Technologies, Ltd.Inventors: Satoshi Ihida, Masaki Shinohara, Manabu Oyama
