Abstract: An LED unit includes a plate-shaped base; a light-emitting device placed on a surface of the base and having one or more LED chips; and a cover mounted to the base at a location above a front side of the light-emitting device and having a function to transmit light emitted from the light-emitting device. The base has on the surface thereof an annular groove for receiving a seal therein, and the cover has on a surface thereof directed to the base an annular protruding part, the annular protruding part being inserted into the annular groove to seal the base and the cover through the seal. A distance between the protruding part and the groove in a width direction of the groove is shorter in a section of the groove than the other sections of the groove.

Abstract: A lighting device receives an output of a power supply phase detector and performs a lighting control of a lighting load by a trigger signal to be output from a load controller to a switching element (a load drive unit) at an arbitrary conduction angle. The load controller includes a determination unit that turns on the switching element at a phase of a conduction angle of a commercial power supply in which any lighting load (an incandescent lamp, a bulb-type fluorescent lamp, and an LED lamp) can be turned on during a predetermined period after turning on a power supply, so as to determine a type of the lighting load during the period. The load controller switches to a predetermined operation mode depending on a type of the lighting load determined by the determination unit.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to realize an optimum resin product design even in the event of conducting injection molding of an arbitrary shape resin product, taking into account of the mold clamping force required for molding and the capacity of an available injection molding device. When a resin product to be molded by injection molding is designed, the mold clamping force required for injection molding of the resin product having a specified shape is determined using a computer-aided optimization method and then the design of the resin product is determined based on the thus obtained mold clamping force.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to achieve favorable injection molding with reduced mold clamping force required for molding and with suppression of weld line occurrence without repeating trial and error manually, by prompt calculation of adequate production parameters, when conducting injection molding of resin products. When the injection molding is conducted using a mold having a plurality of resin inflow conduits N, R, G1, G2, and G3 to the cavity CV, the combination of a numerical analysis method for calculating the injection molding process and a computer-aided optimization method, derives the production parameters which determine time-sequentially the inflow of resin material through resin inflow conduits.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for designing a mold and a method for producing an injection molding in which a mold clamping force or weld line occurrence can be more accurately controlled in the case of injection molding of a resin product. In the case where an injection molding is carried out using a mold having a plurality of resin inflow conduits G1, G2, G3 to a cavity CV, a mold design parameter in relation to at least one of the arrangement, the shapes and the sizes of the resin inflow conduits is determined by the combination of a numerical analysis method for calculating an injection molding process and a computer-aided optimization method, for the purpose of obtaining a preferable injection molding condition. Thereby the mold design parameter can be promptly and accurately calculated without repetition of trial and error manually.

Abstract: In producing an injection molded product by making a molten material flow from a cylinder through a plurality of gates in a die into a cavity and thereby filling the cavity with the molten material, a part of the flows of the molten material coming from a part of the gates is decreased or stopped before the flows of the molten material coming from a plurality of gate attain confluence in the cavity, and the flows of the molten material are made confluent by the flowing action of the flow(s) of the molten material coming from residual gate(s). According to the process of the present invention, the problem of mechanical properties in the injection molded products can be solved without adding any new apparatus to a general-purpose injection molding machine.

Abstract: A plastic pallet comprises a pair of deck boards opposed to each other in parallel with each other, a pair of outer girder portions respectively disposed at a pair of opposite side portions of the deck boards, an inner girder portion placed midway between the outer girder portions, and a plurality of reinforcement ribs disposed on respective inner surfaces of said deck boards. Each of the outer girder portions includes a side wall and a first partition wall disposed between the deck boards. The inner girder portion includes a pair of second partition walls which are disposed in parallel with each other with a predetermined distance. The reinforcement ribs existing within a range of a distance extending inward and outward from the first partition wall have a total weight greater than the total weight of the reinforcement ribs existing within a range of the distance extending outward and inward from the second partition wall.
