  • Patent number: 6025556
    Abstract: An electronic component includes a main element such as a thermistor having electrodes formed on its surfaces, and lead terminals are electrically connected to these electrodes. A resin coating covers the main element, and both the main element and the lead terminals, except their tip parts away from the main element, are covered with another resin coating of an electrically insulating and flexible resin material.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5936511
    Abstract: An electronic device of a kind having an electronic element with a main body, terminal electrodes on the main body and lead terminals electrically connected individually to the terminal electrodes has at least a portion of the outer surfaces of the lead terminals covered with a coating resin composition containing as its resin component a saturated copolymerized polyester resin which can be dissolved in an organic solvent such that the mechanical strength of the lead terminals is improved and the insulation of the device is not compromised during its manufacture or mounting.

  • Patent number: 5592332
    Abstract: A lenticular lens has a light transmitting substrate and a plurality of lens elements formed on the light transmitting substrate. The lens elements are defined in such a way that ridges thereof are aligned in parallel with each other, wherein 30.degree..ltoreq..theta..sub.10% .ltoreq.100.degree. and R.ltoreq.20%, where .theta..sub.10% is a diffusing angle range with respect to normal of the one surface in the case that when light is entered from the opposite surface and transmitted from the one surface, the intensity of the light transmitted is equal to or more than 10% of the intensity of the light transmitted in a peak direction of a main lobe; and R is the ratio of side lobes to main lobe. The intensity of side lobes which causes light loss and light stray can be remarkably reduced. Light can be equally and isotropically focused on in a predetermined diffusing angle range.
