  • Publication number: 20190326054
    Abstract: A method for producing a rare earth magnet includes a molding step of supplying a metal powder including a rare earth element into a mold 2 to form a green compact 10; an orientation step of applying a pulse magnetic field H to the green compact 10 held in the mold 2 to orient the metal powder included in the green compact 10; and a sintering step of sintering the green compact 10 separated from the mold 2 after the orientation step. At least one part of the mold 2 is formed from a resin, and the green compact having a density adjusted to 3.0 g/cm3 or more and 4.4 g/cm3 or less is sintered.

  • Patent number: 9465230
    Abstract: A lens holding unit is held so that it can relatively move with respect to a base part to a direction vertical to an optical axis direction. The lens holding unit has a lens holder, a magnet part, and a spring. The lens holder has a first coil. The magnet part has a first magnet part which includes a first face facing to the first coil and a second magnet part which includes a second face vertical to the first face and constitutes a magnetic domain different from that of the first magnet part. These first magnet part and second magnet part are integrated.

  • Patent number: 9395510
    Abstract: A lens holding device includes a movable part having a coil attached to a lens holder holding a lens and includes a magnet part arranged around an outer peripheral side of the movable part so as to face the coil. The lens holding device includes a support part which supports the movable part so as to move relatively and a spring which connects the movable part and the support part resiliently. The magnet part includes a resin and has an alignment part which positions the spring.
