  • Patent number: 11959165
    Abstract: There have been cases where transistors formed using oxide semiconductors are inferior in reliability to transistors formed using amorphous silicon. Thus, in the present invention, a semiconductor device including a highly reliable transistor formed using an oxide semiconductor is manufactured. An oxide semiconductor film is deposited by a sputtering method, using a sputtering target including an oxide semiconductor having crystallinity, and in which the direction of the c-axis of a crystal is parallel to a normal vector of the top surface of the oxide semiconductor. The target is formed by mixing raw materials so that its composition ratio can obtain a crystal structure.

  • Publication number: 20240075656
    Abstract: The mold release film has a multilayer structure in which a mold release layer, a first base material layer, and a second base material layer are laminated. The mold release layer constitutes a mold release surface, and the second base material layer constitutes a surface of the mold release film on an opposite side of the mold release surface. The mold release layer contains one or two or more selected from a silicone resin, a fluororesin, a melamine resin, an epoxy resin, and a phenolic resin. The first base material layer is formed by a stretched or un-stretched film containing one or two or more selected from a polyester resin, a polyolefin resin, and a polyamide resin. The second base material layer is formed by a stretched or un-stretched film containing one or two or more selected from a polyester resin, a polyolefin resin, and a polyamide resin.

  • Publication number: 20240004379
    Abstract: An anomaly classification device determines whether a detected anomaly is a known anomaly or an unknown anomaly and presents to the user how to manage the detected anomaly not only for a case of a known anomaly but also for a case of an unknown anomaly. This anomaly classification device acquires, as anomaly data, data related to a physical quantity detected when an anomaly occurred in an industrial machine, creates a model used for determining whether or not the anomaly data is anomaly data that is based on a known anomaly cause and a model used for classifying which anomaly cause the anomaly data belongs to, and uses the created models to determine whether or not the anomaly data is based on a known anomaly cause and classify which anomaly cause the anomaly data is based on.

  • Patent number: 11204062
    Abstract: A tilting pad journal bearing is arranged such that a circumferential relative position of an opening portion of an oil feeding hole to supply lubricant oil to a sliding portion of a bearing pad with respect to the bearing pad differs depending on the position of each bearing pad. For a bearing pad under a rotary shaft which supports the load of the rotary shaft, the circumferential position of an opening portion of an oil feeding hole with respect to the bearing pad is set toward an upstream side of a space between pads in a rotating direction of the rotary shaft. For a bearing pad above the rotary shaft, the circumferential position of an opening portion of an oil feeding hole with respect to the bearing pad is set toward a downstream side of a space between pads in the rotating direction of the rotary shaft.
