  • Patent number: 12076972
    Abstract: In order to thermally cure a thermosetting adhesive quickly and with less energy, the bonded article (10) according to the present invention comprises an adherend member (1) having a thermal conductivity of 1 w/m·K or more, an adherend member (2) made of a material which can adhere to the adherend member (1), and an adhesion portion that is formed of a cured product of a thermosetting adhesive (3) and that is in contact with both the adherend member (1) and the adherend member (2), wherein the adherend member (1) has a heat transfer-inhibiting structure (4) which inhibits the transfer of heat from a portion thereof in contact with the adhesive (3) to a peripheral portion thereof.

  • Patent number: 11773296
    Abstract: A method for curing an adhesive composition includes: arranging an adhesive composition that transmits laser light of a first wavelength in contact with a surface of a first adherend that contains, at least at its surface, a first light-to-heat conversion material that generates heat by absorbing laser light of the first wavelength; and curing the adhesive composition by irradiating the adhesive composition and the first adherend with laser light of the first wavelength. In a method for manufacturing a bonded structure, a first bonded structure is manufactured by bonding the adhesive composition to the first adherend by using the method for curing an adhesive composition.

  • Patent number: 9336971
    Abstract: A switch has an actuating arm including an actuating portion and a driving portion, a base including a support that supports the actuating arm, and a recess having a first fixed electrode and a second fixed electrode arranged on the inner side face, and an electrically conductive elastic member that is housed within the recess of the base. The electrically conductive elastic member includes at least one driven part that is driven by the driving portion of the driving body and at least one stretching part that is extendable and compressible through input to the at least one driven part, at least one movable contacting member having a movable contact capable of being connected to the first fixed electrode, and at least one fixed contacting part having a fixed contact capable of being connected to the second fixed electrode.

  • Patent number: 9224556
    Abstract: A switch has a base having a frame integrally formed on a periphery of an upper face of the base, a fixed contact formed on an inner side face of the frame, and a support protrusion that protrudes from the upper face of the base that is integrally formed so as to expose a common fixed contact, an electrically conductive spring member whose connecting part arranged at a center of a spiral spring is nonrotatably supported by the support protrusion and that extends a driving piece from the free end of the spiral spring, and an actuating lever whose one end is rotatably supported by the upper face of the base and that integrally forms an actuating trigger that presses the driving piece of the electrically conductive spring member.
