  • Patent number: 7261569
    Abstract: A connecting structure is for a printed wiring board to be electrically connected to a FPC. The FPC includes a substrate and electro-conductive portions. The printed wiring board includes an insertion opening provided on an edge surface thereof, and line connecting terminals formed on an inner wall face of the insertion opening. A dual in-line contact member including first contact members is fixed to the top end portion of the FPC. Each first contact member includes a main body, and a first arm and a second arm extending from the main body generally in parallel to each other. Furthermore, the first arm and the second arm are bent at bent portions so as to form curves protruding away from each other. With the present embodiment, at least one of the first arm and the second arm press the corresponding line connecting terminal provided within the insertion opening at the bent portion thereof by inserting the FPC to the insertion opening of the printed wiring board.

  • Publication number: 20060278683
    Abstract: A clamp device includes a base, a X direction positioning pin positioning a work piece in a X direction, and a Y direction positioning pin positioning the work piece in a Y direction. A X direction arm moves the work piece toward the X direction positioning pin. A Y direction arm moves the work piece toward the Y direction positioning pin. An arm drive mechanism performs moving actuation of the X direction arm and moving actuation of the Y direction arm. The X direction arm and the Y direction arm are constructed such that the arm drive mechanism performs the moving actuation of the Y direction arm and the moving actuation of the X direction arm with a time difference being provided between the pressing of the work piece against the Y direction positioning pin and the pressing of the work piece against the X direction positioning pin.

  • Patent number: 7041724
    Abstract: The present invention provides a resol-type phenol resin composition which can be cured even in a low temperature range, using a curing accelerator which has no adverse effect on other materials or substances with which the resulting cured article is in contact, or a curing accelerator which requires a small amount of an additive. The composition comprises a resol-type phenol resin (A), an alkali earth metal oxide and/or an alkali earth metal hydroxide (B) (e.g. magnesium oxide, calcium hydroxide, barium hydroxide, etc.), and a salt (C) of a sulfur atom-containing oxo acid and a nitrogen atom-containing base (e.g. ammonium thiosulfate, etc.). This composition is cured at 10 to 110° C.
