  • Publication number: 20220376604
    Abstract: A first drive circuit is connected to a first end of a primary winding of a pulse transformer. A second drive circuit is connected to a second end of the primary winding of the pulse transformer. A voltage clamp unit clamps a voltage of a semiconductor element at a specified voltage when a voltage output from a secondary winding of the pulse transformer is negative. A current detection circuit detects current flowing through the semiconductor element and outputs a detection signal. A control circuit controls the first drive circuit and the second drive circuit based on the detection signal. A current limiting circuit imposes a limit on current flowing through the primary winding of the pulse transformer based on the detection signal.

  • Patent number: 11464782
    Abstract: Provided is a therapeutic or prophylactic agent for pain or interstitial cystitis comprising N-[2-(6,6-dimethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-H-indazol-3-yl)-1H-indol-6-yl]-N-methyl-(2S)-2-(morpholin-4-yl)propanamide or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

  • Publication number: 20080150190
    Abstract: An object is to provide a molding method and a molding machine which can reduce load acting on a drive section for mold clamping, as well as a molded product produced by the molding method or the molding machine. The method includes the steps (the molding machine includes means) for charging a molding material into a cavity a plurality of times; performing mold clamping each time the molding material is charged; and retreating, at a predetermined timing, a base plate by a predetermined mold thickness adjustment amount so as to adjust the origin position of a toggle mechanism. In this case, a molding material is charged into the cavity a plurality of times; mold clamping is performed each time the molding material is charged; and at a predetermined timing, the base plate is retreated by a predetermined mold thickness adjustment amount whereby the origin position of the toggle mechanism is adjusted. Since the compressing force increases, the load acting on a drive section for mold clamping can be reduced.

  • Publication number: 20060145395
    Abstract: An object is to provide a molding method in which quantities of a molding material charged in the cavities can be appropriately controlled, whereby a plurality of molded products exhibiting high quality can be simultaneously produced in a one-shot molding process, as well as a mold for molding for use in the same, a molded product obtained by the same, and a molding machine for implementing the same. Before a mold closing step of a mold apparatus is completed, charging of a molding material into a plurality of cavities of the mold apparatus is started; before the mold closing step is completed, charging of the molding material is completed; and after the mold closing step is completed, a mold clamping step of the mold apparatus is performed, wherein molded products are produced while quantities of the molding material charged in the cavities are controlled.

  • Publication number: 20060131788
    Abstract: Before completion of a mold closing step of a mold apparatus, a movable member of one mold is pressed against the other mold, the movable member partially defining a cavity of the mold apparatus; charging a molding material into the cavity of the mold apparatus is started; and after completion of the mold closing step, a mold clamping step of the mold apparatus is performed so as to produce a molded product. The movable member, which partially constitutes a mold, is operated in the mold closing step so as to prevent leakage, through a clearance between parting faces, of a molding material which has begun to be charged into a cavity of the mold before completion of the mold closing step, whereby, even when the mold has a simple structure using no special component members, a molded product having a shape resembling that of a three-dimensional, deep-bottomed, concave container having a thin side wall can be produced in short time.

  • Publication number: 20060065998
    Abstract: It is enabled to produce in short time a molded product having a shape resembling that of a three-dimensional, deep-bottomed, concave container having a thin side wall, even by use of a molding material of poor moldability, such as an environmental low-load-type material. Before completion of a mold closing step of a mold apparatus, charging the molding material into a cavity of the mold apparatus is started; before completion of the mold closing step, charging the molding material in a predetermined amount is completed; and after completion of the mold closing step, a mold clamping step of the mold apparatus is performed so as to produce a molded product of the environmental low-load-type material.

  • Publication number: 20030099794
    Abstract: A molding method of making a resin molded article by using a mold apparatus includes the steps of: a) starting filling resin into a cavity forming part of the mold apparatus before a mold closing process is finished; b) finishing the mold closing process after filling the resin into the cavity forming part of the mold apparatus is finished; and c) implementing a mold clamping process after the mold closing process is finished.
