  • Publication number: 20060267440
    Abstract: When electric wires (joint conductors) are disposed adjacent each other in a peeled state of coatings, a gap corresponding to the total thickness of both conductors' insulating films as skin layers is formed between end joined face portions of the conductors. The gap becomes larger because the conductors are tapered. Therefore, the adhesion between both conductors is impaired, with a consequent fear of occurrence of joining imperfection. In opposed joined face portions of electric wires (joint conductors), the conductors are deformed from the tips of their axes to the joined face side in such a manner that exposed portions at the tips of the conductors and insulating film faces located in the vicinity thereof are flush with each other or the exposed portions are projected.

  • Patent number: 7138641
    Abstract: A beam deflector for scanning performs deflecting of a charged particle beam having a regular trajectory in a vacuum space to thereby periodically change the trajectory of the charged particle beam. The beam deflector comprises a pair of deflection electrodes disposed so as to confront each inner electrode surface having a symmetrical concave extending in a direction of a beam trajectory.

  • Publication number: 20060102031
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a data creating device for printing plates that optimizes image data so as to enable printing operation by using a minimum amount of a printing film. According to the present invention, there is provided a data creating device for printing plates that optimizes image data for use in forming printing plates, the data creating device being characterized in that a maximum position of the image data with respect to a plate transfer direction is detected; and data downstream to the maximum position with respect to the plate transfer direction is deleted, thereby creating optimized image data.

  • Patent number: 6548933
    Abstract: A linear shape straight angle line is transformed to form U-shape configuration in advance and by sandwiching a stator tooth portion to adjacent slots linear shape two sides are inserted and using a thin plate rod shape chip between both ends of U-shape side of the above stated coil is connected and then the coil is formed to have one winding close circuit. The plural coils are inserted and as stated in above between the both ends of an anti-U-shape side is connected, and a stator coil for forming a predetermined winding turn number is obtained. When an end face of the anti-U-shape side and the thin plate shape chip are overlapped and connected, a plate thickness of a portion in which they are overlapped is reduced by half respectively, and when they are overlapped, it becomes the plate thickness which corresponds to a plate thickness of the above stated straight angle line coil. A length of a coil end portion can be shortened widely.
