Publication number: 20110192574Abstract: A maintenance-free cooling structure is provided which, by removing bubbles produced on a boiling surface utilizing an action other than buoyancy, heat change (heat transfer) is effectively brought about on the boiling surface, thus enabling efficient cooling and its miniaturization and low power consumption. The cooling structure has an evaporation chamber 11 connected through a vapor pipe and a liquid return pipe to a condensation chamber to allow a phase change to occur from a vapor phase coolant V to a liquid phase coolant L. In the evaporation chamber, as a result of contact of the liquid phase coolant L with the boiling surface of a base plate 21 and/or with plate-shaped fins, the phase change occurs from liquid to vapor.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2009Publication date: August 11, 2011Inventors: Minoru Yoshikawa, Hitoshi Sakamoto, Takeya Hashiguchi

Patent number: 5319278Abstract: An ultrasonic motor comprises a rotor and a stator between which a pressurized face-to-face contact is established. The stator includes a longitudinal vibrator for producing a longitudinal thrust in the axial direction thereof and a torsional vibrator for transmitting a torsional thrust to the rotor in response to a longitudinal thrust timely generated by the longitudinal vibrator. The stator is supported by a structure which comprises a ring portion secured to the stator and a plurality of limb portions radially extending from the ring portion. Each of the limb portions has such an effective length and a width that the oscillation frequency of the motor matches the primary resonant frequency of a vibration of the limb portion generated on a plane normal to the axial direction of the stator and has such a thickness that the oscillation frequency matches an intermediate point between adjacent antiresonant frequencies of a vibration of the limb portion generated in the axial direction of the stator.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1993Date of Patent: June 7, 1994Assignee: NEC CorporationInventors: Osamu Myohga, Takeya Hashiguchi, Takeshi Inoue
