Abstract: An interlocking male terminal 45 is contained in a slider 4, and an interlocking female terminal 35 is contained in a male connector 3 so as to be opposed to the interlocking male terminal 45. When fitting a female connector 2 and the male connector 3 together, a connecting lever 23 is pivotally moved through an angle of about 90 degrees in a direction of arrow M, and then the slider 4 is advanced in a direction of arrow A. As a result, the female and male connectors 2 and 3 are completely fitted together, and also the interlocking male terminal 45 is connected to the interlocking female terminal 35, so that wires 5 are electrically connected respectively to wires 6. The interlocking female terminal 45 is formed integrally with the slider 4, and the interlocking female terminal 35 is formed integrally with the male connector 3, and therefore a lever fitting-type connector 1 can be reduced in size or length, and besides the number of the component parts thereof can be reduced.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for preparing an organic compound, which comprises a dehydration step of distilling off water from a polar organic solvent solution containing the organic compound and water to bring the concentration of water below a given level, wherein the dehydration step comprises distilling off water together with the polar organic solvent while adding a polar organic solvent to the solution, or comprises repeating several cycles of adding a polar organic solvent to the solution and then distilling off water together with the polar organic solvent. The present invention further provides the preparation of an organic compound, which enables efficient isolation of the target product in high isolated yield from a polar organic solvent solution containing the organic compound, water and, if necessary, a compound which produces, upon coming into contact with water or the like, a substance accelerating the decomposition of the organic compound.

Abstract: A wide slit nozzle having a slit as a discharge opening. The thickness of a lateral end part is set smaller than the thickness at a lateral center part. The thickness of the lateral center part is fixed. The thickness of the lateral end part changes linearly from opposite lateral ends of the lateral center part to the opposite lateral ends of the slit. Coating material is discharged from the slit while applied with pressure, so that the coating material is coated while expanded wider than the width of the slit. The coating material is discharged at 7 liter per minute, and a coating width of a first example is 100 mm, for example. A thickness increase of the overlapped part is +25% even when a width or an overlapped margin z of the overlapped part is 10 mm or 20 mm.

Abstract: A terminal-movable connector includes first support members which are disposed within an inner housing, and are fixed respectively to terminals in such a manner that each first support member is interposed between the inner housing and the corresponding terminal, and are slidable respectively in directions of axes of distal end portions of wires within the inner housing, and a second support member which is disposed in the inner housing, and supports the terminals in a manner to allow these terminals to be moved respectively in the axial directions of the distal end portions of the wires, and has nuts which are aligned respectively with bolt insertion holes formed respectively in electrical connection portions of the terminals.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cladding resin composition curable by heat, ultraviolet radiation, an electron beam or the like. The composition comprises a polyoxyalkylene polyol phosphate ester (hydroxyl value: 10-2,000 mg KOH/g) and a polymerizable or reactive functional group-containing compound. This composition is highly conductive as it is and, without incorporation of the conventional conductive additives, can be used successfully in the field of coatings and protective films where electric conductivity is a requisite.

Abstract: This lubricant for a fluid dynamic bearing has a base oil containing a phosphate triester represented by a general formula (I) (wherein, RA, RB and RC respectively represent alkyl groups), wherein in the base oil, a phosphate triester in which the three alkyl groups in the general formula (I) are saturated hydrocarbon groups and number of carbon atoms of one of the three saturated hydrocarbon groups differs from number of carbon atoms of the other two saturated hydrocarbon groups is contained as a primary base oil.

Abstract: A thick-film sheet member provided by a thick film which has a predetermined thickness and a predetermined thickness and a predetermined plan configuration, without the thick film being fixed to a substrate. This thick-film sheet member can be produced by (a) forming a paste film having a predetermined thickness, on a predetermined film formation surface in a predetermined pattern, and (b) peeling the paste film from the predetermined film formation surface after subjecting the paste film to a firing treatment effected at a predetermined temperature. The paste film is constituted by a thick-film material in the form of particles which are bonded together with a resin and which are sintered at the predetermined temperature.

The paste film is sintered in the firing step, whereby a thick film is formed of the sintered paste film.
