Abstract: The object of this invention is to provide a relay unit and a housing for that unit to be used when a number of relay switches are installed side by side in a circuit to switch a power supply circuit on and off. A number of compartments are provided in a case with an open top such that one relay fits into each compartment. The relays are placed into these compartments, and a cover is fitted onto the open top of the case. Slits are provided along the upper edge of the case and/or in the cover, through which the connectors attached to the terminals of the various relays can pass. The cover is placed on top of the case with the connectors attached to the terminals of the various relays running through the various slits. With this invention, a number of relay switches are put into a single package (housing), thus making the relays easier to handle. The package makes it easier to mount and wire multiple relay switches.

Abstract: A polished-piece holder is provided that does not easily stick or adsorb to a polishing pad of a polishing apparatus and reduces occurrences of production line troubles and therefore the number of failed polished pieces. A single sheet of a thermosetting resin impregnated fiber substrate or a laminated sheet formed by laminating a plurality of sheets of the thermosetting resin impregnated fiber substrate is formed under heat and pressure into a plate. The thermosetting resin impregnated fiber plate is then processed to form a polished-piece holder for holding pieces to be polished. The evaluation portion has a certain length in a direction of the average line. The thermosetting resin impregnated fiber plate has a surface roughness with a maximum wave height Ry of 10 &mgr;m or greater over an almost entire area of the surface layer.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a base material for a laminate having a high strength, reduced thickness, and light weight. In the present invention, a base material is prepared by incorporating a thermosetting resin binder into a non-woven fabric of para-aramid fibers prepared by a wet type paper making, and then heating a plurality of the resultant non-woven fabric sheets under pressure. The non-woven fabric sheet comprises 95 to 70 mass % of the para-aramid fibers and 5 to 30 mass % of the thermosetting resin binder.

Abstract: A mirror assembly particularly adopted as a side view mirror for a vehicle, the assembly being provided a mirror, a mounting plate for supporting the mirror, a light assembly having a lens at one end, a visor for accommodating the mirror and the light assembly. A joint element pivotally mounts a side of the light assembly to the mounting plate. The visor has a visor opening into which the lens is fitted, and a connection element for movably connecting an end of the visor opening and an end of the lens. A bias element in the form of a spring pivotally biases the end of the light assembly having the lens such that the connection element substantially closes any gap between the visor opening and the lens.

Abstract: A resin compound, which causes very little thermal stress even when a flip chip is mounted, has a low modulus of elasticity, and a heat resistance which is sufficiently high for solder floating at 300° C., and the resin compound also can be used in an adhesive film, a metal-clad adhesive film, a circuit board, and an assembly structure. The resin compound contains (A) a polyamide imide with siloxane bond, (B) a acrylic polymer with a weight-average molecular weight of 500,000 or more, (C) a thermoset resin, and (D) a solvent.

Abstract: A door mirror structure is provided which can improve assembly workability of a door mirror. A cord is pulled out from a base end portion of a door mirror body. In an overhanging portion of a door mirror base, a slot is formed in place of a conventional cord insertion hole. Therefore, at a door mirror assembly line, the cord can easily be inserted into the slot from an arrow A direction. As a result, the assembly workability of the door mirror can be improved.

Abstract: An inward surface of a flange 12 is formed with at least two coil guide grooves 14, 15 for start-up of coil winding, which grooves are in point symmetrical with respect to the central axis of a body 11 so that they are individually positioned between coil terminal holes 12a, 12b.

Abstract: In an electromagnetic relay in which a contact mechanism 50 provided on a base 10 is driven by a card 60 which slides and moves in parallel to the axis of an electromagnet block 20 provided in the base 10 as the electromagnet block 20 is magnetized and demagnetized, the base 10 comprises a guide portion 17 for restricting the card 60 in its position. This prevents variations in the performance characteristics so that high productivity and long service life of contacts can be obtained.
