  • Patent number: 11991463
    Abstract: An imaging element according to an embodiment includes: a unit pixel including a first pixel having a first photoelectric conversion element and including a second pixel having a second photoelectric conversion element, the second pixel being arranged adjacent to the first pixel; and an accumulation portion that accumulates a charge generated by the second photoelectric conversion element and converts the accumulated charge into a voltage. The accumulation portion is disposed at a boundary between the unit pixel and another unit pixel adjacent to the unit pixel.

  • Patent number: 11973096
    Abstract: The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging element, a solid-state imaging element package, and electronic equipment that can suppress occurrence of flares. The solid-state imaging element includes an effective pixel region and a peripheral circuit region. The effective pixel region includes a plurality of pixels arranged two-dimensionally in a matrix pattern. The peripheral circuit region is provided around the effective pixel region. The effective pixel region has a pixel-to-pixel light-shielding film formed at boundary portions between the pixels. In a region on a substrate where a rib structure is formed within the peripheral circuit region, no light-shielding film is formed in the same layer as the pixel-to-pixel light-shielding film. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a solid-state imaging element package including a cover glass that protects a light-receiving surface of the solid-state imaging element.

  • Publication number: 20230343499
    Abstract: A solenoid includes a coil bobbin, a coil, a terminal, a housing, an armature, an actuation pin, and the like. The coil bobbin includes a tubular portion, and a first flange portion formed on one end of the tubular portion and extending radially to outside the tubular portion. The coil is wound around the coil bobbin. The terminal connects a terminal conductor portion of the coil and a cable. The terminal includes a joint portion that joins the terminal conductor portion of the coil. The joint portion extends in a direction along one end surface of the first flange portion.

  • Publication number: 20220316547
    Abstract: When a damping force adjustable shock absorber operates in a soft mode, a piston is performing a compression stroke, and a piston speed falls within an ultra low speed range, communication between an upper cylinder chamber and a reservoir is interrupted by an ultra low speed valve provided in a pilot passage. The interruption of communication enables expansion of an oil liquid in the upper cylinder chamber when the piston is performing the compression stroke and the piston speed falls within the ultra low speed range. A differential pressure is generated between an upper cylinder chamber side and a lower cylinder chamber side of a compression-side ultra low speed valve. As a result, when the piston speed falls within the ultra low speed range, the compression-side ultra low speed valve is opened, and a damping force having a valve characteristic achieved by the ultra low speed valve can be generated.
