Patent number: 9969839Abstract: In a resin film configured to have a cured product layer formed from a curable resin composition on the surface of a substrate, the present invention aims to ensure not only the processability and other properties of the resin, but also the performance required for recent high-hardness coating films. The above problem was solved by a curable resin composition comprising the intended polyfunctional urethane (meth)acrylate oligomer, which is capable of forming a cured product layer when applied to and cured on a resin substrate.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2014Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Humiaki Kakeya, Takahiro Matsumoto, Katsuyuki Murai, Tetsuji Moroiwa, Yasuhiro Maeda

Patent number: 9966705Abstract: An intelligent cable is disclosed. The cable provides a connector and a metal core. The connector is pluggably coupled with an external apparatus and enclosing a circuit unit electrically connected to an external apparatus. The metal core is electrically connected to the circuit unit in the connector. The circuit unit includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter receives input signals from the external apparatus and outputs a transmitted signal to the metal core. The receiver receives the transmitted signal from the metal core and provides output signals to the external apparatus. A feature of the cable is that the transmitter modulates the input signals and the receiver de-modulates the transmitted signal both by the PAM configuration.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2015Date of Patent: May 8, 2018Assignee: Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.Inventor: Yasuhiro Maeda

Publication number: 20180015527Abstract: In the present invention, a method for joining members involves preparing a steel component having a bottom wall in which a hole is provided, and a hollow aluminum pipe. The aluminum pipe is slipped through the hole in the steel component and passed through the bottom wall, rubber is inserted into the interior of the aluminum pipe, and the rubber is compressed in the direction of the axis (L) of the aluminum pipe and induced to distend towards the outside from the inside. As a result of the foregoing, at least a section of the aluminum pipe slipped through the hole is induced to undergo expansion and is joined by clinching to the bottom wall. This method for joining members reduces the load on the members, improves the joint strength, and enables two members to be joined at reduced cost.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2016Publication date: January 18, 2018Applicant: Kabushiki Kaisha Kobe Seiko Sho (Kobe Steel, Ltd.)Inventors: Yasuhiro MAEDA, Jiro IWAYA, Junya NAITOU, Hideto KATSUMA
