Patent number: 7318609Abstract: A chuck includes an annular ring portion, a first engaging portion which extends along a central axis of the annular ring portion and which engages with the first tube joint member, and a second engaging portion which extends from the annular ring portion along the central axis of the annular ring portion and which elastically engages with a second tube joint member. A-three-dimensionally shaped portion, which is an end of the second engaging portion, includes a pair of expanded portions on a metal plate. The annular ring portion is formed by rounding the metal plate with both ends, which are not fixed to one another so that both ends are displaceable circumferentially.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2004Date of Patent: January 15, 2008Assignee: SMC Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Keiichiro Naito, Yoshimoto Taneya, Taku Tomita, Hitoshi Hamasaki

Patent number: 6068014Abstract: A pressure-reducing valve has a relief valve seat shaped as a bottomed cylindrical sleeve, a seat disposed on an inner wall surface of the relief valve seat, and a relief valve mechanism having a ball for opening and closing a relief passage defined in the relief valve seat when unseated off and seated on the seat.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 1998Date of Patent: May 30, 2000Assignee: SMC Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Taku Tomita

Patent number: 6039071Abstract: When a valve body of a pressure-reducing valve is displaced in the direction indicated by the arrow B, a seal pad of a valve seal mechanism on the valve body abuts against a ridge on a seat, which enters the seal pad to provide a seal therebetween. When the ridge enters the seal pad by a distance, abutment surfaces of holders on the seat are held against the seal pad, preventing the ridge from entering the seal pad beyond the distance. The distance by which the ridge enters the seal pad is thus made constant. The ridge is spaced from the abutment surfaces by a groove, which communicates with a primary port through grooves between the holders, keeping a constant valve sealing area. The pressure-reducing valve which incorporates the valve seal mechanism has a constant quality level.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 1998Date of Patent: March 21, 2000Assignee: SMC Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Taku Tomita, Mitsutoshi Araki, Naoyuki Yasuda

Patent number: 6024117Abstract: A recess and another recess having an enlarged diameter with respect to the recess are defined in a main body, wherein a valve guide body is inserted into the recess. Projections of the valve guide body engage inside grooves defined in a wall portion constituting the recess, and second projections of a cover member engage with first projections formed on a wall constituting the other recess, stopping the cover member from falling out. A pressure of a pressurized fluid which is imposed on the valve guide body is supported by the cover member. As a result, there is no concern of damage to the valve guide body, and moreover, there is no concern of unexpected dislocation of the valve guide body.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 1998Date of Patent: February 15, 2000Assignee: SMC Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Taku Tomita, Mitsutoshi Araki, Naoyuki Yasuda
