  • Patent number: 10844917
    Abstract: A brake caliper according to this disclosure is, for example, equipped with: a body having a pair of side walls arranged with a gap therebetween, a peripheral wall running between the pair of side walls, wherein the pair of side walls and the peripheral wall enclose the peripheral edge portion of a disk rotor from the outside of the disk rotor in the radial direction; brake pads positioned between the side walls and the disk rotor; pistons that are supported by the side walls and that press the brake pads toward the side surfaces of the disk rotor by means of applied hydraulic pressure; and a shaft that supports the brake pads and passes through an opening provided in the side walls. The opening includes a retaining part that retains the shaft in the circumferential direction at two contact points separated from each other along the edge of the opening.

  • Patent number: 10415201
    Abstract: An opening/closing device according to the present invention includes a gate, a fall prevention unit, a support release unit, a first float, a floating prevention unit, a second float, and a floating prevention release unit. The gate receives a flow of fluid, and is able to fall down toward a downstream direction of the flow. The fall prevention unit supports the gate, thereby preventing the gate from falling down. The support release unit releases the support for the gate by the fall prevention unit. The first float is arranged on an upstream side of the gate, is arranged on one of the left side and the right side of the gate viewed from upstream, and is less in the specific gravity than the fluid. The floating prevention unit prevents the first float from floating.

  • Patent number: 8513800
    Abstract: After a semiconductor chip is cut out, an In-10 atom % Ag pellet is placed on a metal film. Next, an epoxy sheet on a stiffener is stuck to a ceramic substrate. At this time, the In alloy pellet is sandwiched between a central protrusion portion and the metal film. Then, an In alloy film is formed from the In alloy pellet by heating, melting, and then cooling the In alloy pellet. As a result, the semiconductor chip and a heat spreader are bonded via the metal film and the In alloy film.

  • Patent number: 6836025
    Abstract: In a semiconductor device circuit formation surfaces of each of a plurality of semiconductor chips can be easily located at even level when the semiconductor chips are arranged side by side so that a process of forming rearrangement wiring is simplified. The semiconductor chips are mounted on a substrate via an adhesive layer in a two-dimensional arrangement. A resin layer is formed on the substrate and located around the semiconductor elements. The resin layer has the same thickness as a thickness of the semiconductor elements. An organic insulating layer is formed over a surface of the resin layer and circuit formation surfaces of the semiconductor elements. A rearrangement wiring layer is formed on the organic insulating layer and electrodes of the semiconductor chips. External connection terminals are electrically connected to the circuit formation surfaces of the semiconductor elements through wiring in the rearrangement wiring layer.
