  • Patent number: 8110062
    Abstract: A welding method and welding apparatus for resin members is provided in which dimensional accuracy of two resin members after welding can be secured and reduction in joining strength due to excessive laser irradiation can be prevented. In a method of superimposing a resin having a laser-transmitting property and a resin having laser absorptiveness and irradiating the resin members with a laser beam from the side of the laser-transmitting resin member to deposit the resin members on each other, irradiation with the laser beam is ended in accordance with reduction in the approaching speed of the two resin members during the irradiation with the laser beam.

  • Patent number: 7862874
    Abstract: A method for producing a welded resin material contains steps of: superimposing a resin member having transmissibility to laser light and a resin member having absorptivity to laser light to form a contact part where the resin members are in contact with each other; forming a closed space that is adjacent to the contact part and faces one end of the contact part; and radiating the laser light from the resin member having transmissibility while pressing the resin members to each other through the contact part, so as to heat the contact part to melt a resin at the contact part, housing a resin excluded from the contact part through melting in the closed space, solidifying the resin melted at the contact part to weld the resin members.

  • Publication number: 20080261065
    Abstract: A resin welded body where a first resin part that is absorbent with respect to laser light and a second resin part that is transparent with respect to laser light are fitted together and the laser light is emitted to a predetermined position from the side of the second resin part to weld together the first and the second resin parts and form a joint portion between both resin parts, wherein on either the first or the second resin part there is disposed a projection that comes into contact with the other resin part during the welding and regulates the sinking amount at the joint portion.

  • Patent number: 7391101
    Abstract: A semiconductor pressure sensor can reduce the damage of bonding wires to increase their life time even under an environment in which the temperature and pressure change rapidly and radically. The semiconductor pressure sensor includes a package (1) made of a resin and having a concave portion (1a), a lead (2) formed integral with the package (1) by insert molding, with its one end exposed into the concave portion (1a) and its other end extended from the package (1) to the outside, a sensor chip (3) arranged in the concave portion (1a) for detecting pressure, and a bonding wire (4) electrically connecting the sensor chip (3) and the lead (2) with each other. An interface between the lead (2) and the package (1) on the side of the concave portion (1a) is covered with a first protective resin portion (6) of electrically insulating property, and the bonding wire (4) is covered with a second protective resin portion (7) that is softer than the first protective resin portion (6).
