  • Patent number: 11929668
    Abstract: In the present invention, when a DC reactor is in a magnetically saturated state, the on/off operations of a switching element are suspended and the switching element is set to an off state for a predetermined period of time, thereby resetting the magnetic saturation of the DC reactor and maintaining the supply of power to a load. After resetting the magnetic saturation, the pulse output of the normal pulse mode is restarted.

  • Patent number: 11708928
    Abstract: A resin joint includes a joint body having a flow path, sleeves, and union nuts that fix tubes to the joint body. The joint body has a body portion with a curved inner peripheral surface and a straight portion protruding from an end portion of the body portion. The straight portion has outer and inner cylindrical portions radially arranged inside the outer cylindrical portion. An end portion of the inner cylindrical portion is positioned closer to the body portion than is an end portion of the outer cylindrical portion. A groove portion extending parallel with the outer and inner cylindrical portions in an axial direction is formed between an inner peripheral surface of the outer cylindrical portion and an outer peripheral surface of the inner cylindrical portion. The tube is fixed to the joint body such that a press-fit portion of the sleeve is press-fitted in the groove portion.

  • Publication number: 20220390052
    Abstract: A fitting body includes a tubular end whose outer periphery has an external thread and whose inner periphery has an annular groove or protrusion. A sleeve connects a tube to the tubular end of the fitting body. A union nut includes a first axial end that receives the tube therein and a second axial end to be screwed onto the external thread of the fitting body. The fitting body includes first and second regulating portions extending in directions that intersect an axial direction of the fitting body to contact the union nut being screwed onto the external thread and then sharply raise torque to be transmitted through the union nut to a hand of a worker. When being screwed onto the external thread, the union nut contacts the first regulating portion and subsequently the second regulating portion.

  • Patent number: 11306819
    Abstract: A gasket includes a first slope at a first axial end. The fluid device includes a second slope that contacts the first slope. The first slope and the second slope have different gradients. The first slope allows at least the first axial end to be deformed along the second slope. The first slope contacts the second slope with a gradient that varies depending on a gradient of the second slope to seal a gap between the first slope and the second slope.
