  • Patent number: 8881393
    Abstract: In a manufacturing method of an impeller for a fluid transmitting device, multiple guide grooves aligned in a peripheral direction to allow communication between adjacent ones of multiple positioning holes are provided in a concave inner surface of a core in advance; and in a step of melting a brazing material and causing the molten brazing material to penetrate into gaps between coupling pieces and positioning holes that are fitted to each other and further into gaps between the core and the blades, the molten brazing material is guided to the positioning holes through the multiple guide grooves. Accordingly, the step allows the molten brazing material to be efficiently guided to the gaps between the coupling pieces and positioning holes, thereby improving the yield of the brazing material and preventing an influence of a residual brazing material over the rotational balance of the impeller.

  • Patent number: 8393172
    Abstract: An heat pump drying machine has a normal dry mode (e.g., compression ratio is equal to or greater than 3) for operating a compressor at a predetermined dry operation frequency and an energy saving dry mode (e.g., compression ratio is equal to or greater than 2.3 and is less than 3) for operating the compressor at an energy saving operation frequency that is lower than the dry operation frequency. A control device is provided to control an operation frequency of the compressor 5so that the two dry operation modes are switched to each other. The control device can execute the control for increasing the operation frequency of the compressor to the dry operation frequency during the operation of the energy saving dry mode.
