  • Publication number: 20170299206
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to allow uniform distribution of a refrigerant by a distributor. A refrigerant pipe includes a bent pipe formed in the shape of a curve and a downstream pipe connected to the downstream side of the bent pipe and formed to be linear. A distributor to distribute the refrigerant into a plurality of flow paths is connected to the downstream pipe on the downstream side. An inner wall on the inner peripheral side of the bent pipe being on the side of the curvature center of the curve is a grooved surface with a groove formed therein, and an inner wall on the outer peripheral side of the bent pipe being on the side opposite to the curvature center of the curve is a smooth surface.

  • Patent number: 8731874
    Abstract: Included are a table creating unit that creates, for a three-dimensional CAD model, tabular data that describes change logic for each changed state, the change logic associating a changed state with a condition to be satisfied to shift to the changed state, the changed state being a form after transformation of the three-dimensional CAD model; a data converting unit that converts each change logic set in the created tabular data into a description in a certain program language, and creates a model built-in program; an model built-in program IO unit that registers the converted model built-in program to the three-dimensional CAD model; and a three-dimensional CAD software-program unit that transforms the three-dimensional CAD model when receiving an operation for transforming the three-dimensional CAD model, based on the operation and a change logic described in a model built-in program registered to the three-dimensional CAD model.

  • Patent number: 6324055
    Abstract: A mobile information processing apparatus of the present invention having a main body and a display unit that opens and closes, attempts to improve heat releasing efficiency by allowing a transfer of heat which is released from a heat generating unit of the main body to the display unit, so that the heat is also spread to the display unit, without making the configuration complex. In order to do so, a thermally conductive material having a flexible property is placed on the main body and the display unit of the mobile information processing apparatus. Further, the thermally conductive material includes a thermally conductive sheet made of a thermally conductive fiber that has a high thermal conductivity and an outer cover such as leather. The thermally conductive sheet will be attached to CPU of the main body.

  • Patent number: 6181071
    Abstract: A display panel with a reduced capacitive coupling. The panel includes a transmission type liquid crystal panel. A lamp is provided adjacent at least one side of a light guide plate to guide the light to the crystal panel. A high frequency current supply is used to power the light. A reflective plate encircles the lamp so as to introduce the light to the light guide plate. A housing is made of a thin metal plate. Each portion of the housing is connected with a common electrical potential. Part of the housing extends away from the reflective plate around the lamp or contains an opening in the same location. By this arrangement, the capacitance between the reflective plate and the housing is made smaller thus reducing the leakage current.

  • Patent number: 6166722
    Abstract: Portable electronic apparatus is effectively provided with a pointing device and a memory card to allow it to be down-sized and made thinner. The portable electronic apparatus comprises an apparatus main body having a storage section for storing the pointing device, the storage section being provided in the inside with a connector for connecting a memory card to the apparatus main body. The pointing device is slid upward to produce a memory card fitting space for fitting the memory card in position within the storage section.

  • Patent number: 5980276
    Abstract: A small and thin electronic apparatus (1) is provided by setting a PC card (2) outside the small electronic apparatus (1). The small electronic apparatus (1) includes a movable PC card connector (3) for connecting to the PC card (2) outside the small electronic apparatus (1). The small electronic apparatus (1) also includes a leg (9). Since the PC card (2) can be set outside the small electronic apparatus (1), a space for setting the PC card (2) is not necessary inside the small electronic apparatus (1). Consequently, down-sizing and reduction of thickness of the electronic apparatus (1) can be realized. Since the PC card (2) can be set outside, the PC card (2) can be used even for a small electronic apparatus (1) having A6 size, which generally does not have a space for setting the PC card (2) inside.

  • Patent number: 5786989
    Abstract: A mounting structure for mounting a printed circuit board on a frame of an electronic device. The mounting structure comprises a body, a lead, and a threaded portion. The threaded portion is formed on the body, and receives a screw. The printed circuit board is secured to a frame of an electronic device using the mounting structure. Specifically, the mounting structure is secured to the frame using the screw. The lead is soldered to lands on a mounting surface of the printed circuit board by a process for mounting electronic parts (e.g. an IC or LSI package) on the mounting surface of the electronic device.
