  • Publication number: 20080201935
    Abstract: A manufacturing method for a rotary electric machine according to the present invention comprises steps of: (1) preforming a coil including a plurality of element coils of an insulated conductor; (2) inserting a first side of a first element coil of the element coils into a first slot of a stator core through an opening of the first slot; (3) inserting a second side of the first element coil into a second slot in which a first side of a second element coil of the element coil has been already inserted; (4) electrically connecting coil ends of a plurality of the coils to each other; and (5) rotatably mounting a rotor inside the stator core.

  • Patent number: 6880969
    Abstract: In a temperature sensor including a pair of electrode wires for signal lead-out, bonded to both opposing end faces of a thermistor device, this invention aims at preventing peeling, of bond portions, between the electrode wires and the thermistor device. This object can be accomplished by sealing the thermistor device 3 and the bond portions between the thermistor device 3 and the electrode wires 4 by using an electrically insulating glass member 6, and holding the pair of electrode wires 4 by using a holding member 8 made of an electrically insulating ceramic while a gap is kept between them.

  • Patent number: 6829820
    Abstract: A temperature sensor for detecting a temperature of, for example, an exhaust gas of a vehicle is manufactured by inserting a thermistor element into a bottomed metal tube while filling an inside of the metal tube with a filler material, preferably of silicone oil, to reduce a sliding resistance between the thermistor element and the metal tube as an integral temperature sensing structure which is then mounted in a housing.

  • Patent number: 6698922
    Abstract: A temperature sensor according to the present invention includes a sensor body for sensing a temperature; a sheath pin core wire electrically connected to the sensor body; a connector electrically connecting between the sheath pin core wire and the lead wire; and a protection tube for containing the connector and the sheath pin core wire, and for protecting the connector and the sheath pin core wire. A connection portion between the sheath pin core wire and the lead wire is hardened by a ceramic material so that a molded portion is provided. A displacement limiting means is provided for limiting displacement of the molded portion exceeding a predetermined value in the protection tube. The present invention can sufficiently reduce the tension acting on a sheath pin core wire. Further, the present invention can provide an exhaust temperature sensor having a sufficiently low tension acting on the sheath pin core wire which can be effectively used in an internal combustion engine.

  • Publication number: 20030062486
    Abstract: To provide a neutron scintillator, which does not contain a heavy element, which is absolutely necessary in realizing a scintillation detector having low sensitivity to gamma ray and fully capable of counting high intensity neutron, Cu is doped in oxide comprised of Li and B. The oxide comprised of Li and B is a transparent single crystal having composition ratio of Li2B4O7. The neutron scintillator contains Cu by 0.001 to 0.1 wt %. Furthermore, a (001) plane cut off perpendicularly to a growth axis and polished from the single crystal whose orientation has been grown in a <001> axis is made to be a scintillator plate crystal.

  • Patent number: 4374695
    Abstract: A top fitted with a basin having good water drainage which is constructed by fixing the basin to the top made by laminating a decorative board on the top surface of a wood derived material, e.g. plywood, particle board etc. as a core material, so that a flange part of the basin is situated beneath the rear surface of the decorative board, and bonding and reinforcing with a synthetic resin, and a process for their production.By the present invention, the basin can be firmly fixed without any spaces, and therefore remarkably increases durability of kitchen fixtures.
