  • Publication number: 20120125738
    Abstract: There are provided screw segments 100, 200 that are capable of shearing and kneading feedstock without causing plugs within a cylinder 1 of a screw extruder, and of extruding it from the cylinder 1. The screw segments 100, 200 each comprise a shaft part 111 to be affixed to a screw shaft 7, and a tooth part 112 that protrudes radially outward from the shaft part 111.

  • Publication number: 20090229134
    Abstract: This invention provides an encoder including an abnormality detecting device capable of promptly and securely detecting abnormality of the encoder even when abnormality occurs in a power supply of an encoder circuit. A power supply for an encoder circuit (30) and a power supply for an abnormality detecting device (40) use power supplies different from each other, respectively. An analog signal A, which represents a signal state of each unit, for detecting an abnormal state of the encoder is input from the encoder circuit (30) to an abnormality detecting circuit (41). The abnormality detecting circuit (41) detects whether a level of the analog signal falls within a predetermined range or not. When it is detected that the level falls out of the predetermined range, an abnormal signal is generated and the signal is input to an abnormal signal transmitting circuit (42).

  • Patent number: 7490751
    Abstract: A soldering iron tip having a copper or copper alloy core and a metal particle sintered member connected to the core to transfer heat therefrom to form a working soldering tip. The sintered member can be manufactured by powder metallurgy from a base material (iron, nickel and/or cobalt particles) and an additive (silicon, copper, silver, tin, boron and/or carbon particles) where needed. The sintered member can be formed as a cap which is fitted onto the working tip with a silver paste sandwiched therebetween, a brazing filler metal ring is positioned between an abutment shoulder and the cap, flux applied to the joint and the cap brazed into place. A metal, cermet or ceramic coating sprayed on the outer surface of the core, except for the (masked) working tip end, is not wettable by solder. An Ag—Al—Cu alloy coating layer in the rearwardly-disposed cavity improves heat conduction from the heater therein.

  • Publication number: 20050011876
    Abstract: A soldering iron (and a desoldering iron) with a replaceable tip cap are herein disclosed. The replaceable tip cap is fitted on the forward heat-conducting core end of a soldering (or desoldering) iron heat assembly. Conductive paste, powder or a low melting temperature material such as solder, can be sandwiched between the tip cap and the forward end to improve heat conductivity therebetween. An assembly which allows for the easy removal and application of a replacement tip cap can include a sleeve with tightening bolt, a coil spring sleeve, or a slotted compressible sleeve. The tip cap can thus be replaced after it has worn out, and the heat assembly unit need not be replaced until it has burnt out.

  • Publication number: 20040141873
    Abstract: This invention provides solder that is substantially free of lead that minimizes corrosion from occurring in the soldering equipment such as the tip of the soldering iron and soldering dipping tank. Without substantial, if any, amount of lead in the solder, the solder does not expose lead into the environment. The solder composition also includes element(s) that extend the life of the soldering tip or other equipments associated with soldering. The solder composition may include Sn (tin) along with Co (cobalt) and Fe (iron). Tin may make up the most of the content in the solder composition. The two elements cobalt and iron substantially inhibit tin from corroding the iron, thereby substantially preventing the soldering iron tip and dipping solder tank from corroding. The composition of the solder may also include Ag (silver) to improve the mechanical strength and wettability of the solder.
