Abstract: A handler includes a base having an opening portion, a first hand which transports a transport target, a first transport section which transports the first hand to above the opening portion and moves the first hand down, a second hand which transports the transport target, a second transport section which transports the second hand to above the opening portion and moves the second hand down, and a control section which controls an operation of the first transport section and an operation of the second transport section. The handler has a state where the first hand and the second hand are disposed in parallel to the opening portion while being close to each other toward above the opening portion.

Abstract: A handler includes at least one transport section which transports a transport target onto a base. The transport section includes a plurality of first elevating sections which respectively move up and down a plurality of gripping sections which grip the transport target, and a single second elevating section which moves up and down all the plurality of first elevating sections. In connection of the transport target to a connection destination, a part of the plurality of first elevating sections are driven to descend, and the remaining part thereof are driven to ascend.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring cumulative time of operation time of an electrical equipment is comprised of a CPU having a nonvolatile memory and a RAM. This apparatus executes the following steps: (1) reading cumulative time data Ts of the nonvolatile memory and presetting it to a timer counter of the RAM when a measurement command is turned on wherein Ts is a value represented by Ts=(A minutes.times.n+A/2 minutes) when n is a positive integer; (2) measuring ON time on the timer counter in which Ts is preset; (3) checking as to whether the ON time becomes integer time A minutes; (4) When the ON time becomes integer times A minutes, the sum of the ON time and A/2 minutes is read in the nonvolatile memory as Ts. Therefore, the accumulated error of the cumulative time is decreased.

Abstract: A chip-type solid electrolytic capacitor includes a cathode conductive layer provided on a whole surface of a cathode layer formed on an outer surface of a capacitor element, which whole surface is opposite to a surface where an anode lead wire is lead out, and on a surface adjacent to the first-mentioned whole surface. With this arrangement, if the capacitor element is obliquely inserted into a mold during the formation of a resin shell, the inner walls of the mold will not come into contact with cathode layer of the capacitor element, but will instead come into contact with the cathode conductive layer to prevent the cathode layer from being exposed to the resin shell. As a result, any possible damage to the cathode layer of the capacitor element when the peripheral surface of the resin shell on a cathode side is subjected to roughening is prevented to eliminate defects in electric characteristics such as leakage of electric current and a tan.delta. value.

Abstract: A method of grinding a plate-like material comprises supporting a plate-like material on a circular carrying member having a gear at its outer circumference, engaging the gear of the circular carrying member with first and second transferring means which oppose at a predetermined distance, grinding a surface of the plate-like material in a grinding unit placed at or near a transferring path which is formed between the first and second transferring means by moving the carrying member which is driven by the first and second transferring means, and moving the carrying member from the grinding unit by driving the first and second transferring means after the completion of the grinding operation.

Abstract: A hermetic dynamic machine has a main part supporting a rotor shaft and having a main part cooler, an external fan provided on one end of the rotor shaft, an end cover which covers the end of the main part adjacent to the external fan and having a cooling air inlet formed therein, a bearing provided on the portion of the rotor shaft adjacent to the external fan. The dynamic machine further has a cooling air system which is constituted by a first cooling air passage for guiding the flow of the cooling air from the air inlet to the external fan, a second cooling air passage through which air for cooling the bearing flows and a third cooling air passage through which cooling air from the external fan is introduced into the main part cooler. A first connecting pipe provides a communication between the first and second cooling air passages, while a second connecting pipe provides communication between the second and third cooling air passages.

Abstract: In a solid electrolytic chip capacitor having a capacitor element of the type manufactured by laminating a metal oxide semiconductor layer and a cathode layer one after another on an anode electrode made of a sinter of a valve metal, which anode electrode has an anode lead made of a valve metal, and has a dielectric oxide film on the surface thereof, an anode terminal is connected to an upper portion of the anode lead, while a cathode terminal is connected to an upper portion of the cathode layer. The capacitor element as well as a portion of the anode terminal and a portion of the cathode terminal are embedded in a resin casting, and the anode and cathode terminals are respectively drawn from both sides of the casting, and bent so that exposed portions of the anode and cathode terminals are situated along the sides and the lower surface of the casting. The cathode terminal has a U-shaped portion for receiving the capacitor element, while elongate slots may be made in both terminals.
