  • Patent number: 7955546
    Abstract: In the assembly-completed state, the Lower Mold, the Outer Mold, the Upper Mold, and the “inner mold (the integral body of the Pin-holder and the Pin)” are stacked and fixed in this order from the bottom, and the Pin is coaxially inserted into the First Hole of the Outer Mold and the Second Hole of the Upper Mold. In the assembly-completed state, the molding space for molding the ceramic molded body is formed between the surface of the Pin and the First Hole, and the annular minute gap is formed between the surface of the Pin and the Second Hole. The ceramic slurry poured into the Slurry Reservoir Pres formed on the upper surface of the Upper Mold falls and flows into the molding space through the annular minute gap by virtue of the action of gravity or the like.

  • Patent number: 7202834
    Abstract: A feedhorn, a radio wave receiving converter, and an antenna that can be reduced in size and have high reliability can be obtained. A feedhorn portion constitutes part of a converter, and includes a chassis body with a waveguide having an opening, a dielectric as a dielectric member connected to the opening, and a waterproof cover as a protective member. The waterproof cover covers the dielectric and contacts (tightly attached) to a portion of the surface of the dielectric (in the dielectric, the portion of the surface away from waveguide). The waterproof cover is formed of a material having substantially the same electric characteristics (permittivity and dielectric loss tangent) as the material forming the dielectric.
