  • Patent number: 6890363
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a solid electrolytic capacitor having a masking structure in which the insulation between the anode part and the cathode part can be ensured without fail, to its production method, to a method for coating a masking agent on a solid electrolytic capacitor substrate, and to an apparatus therefor. According to the present invention, the masking material covers the dielectric film on the metal material having valve action and sufficiently infiltrates into the core metal made of a metal having valve action while the solid electrolyte is masked by the masking material without fail, so that a solid electrolytic capacitor can be produced that has a reduced leakage current and a reduced stress generated at the reflow treatment or the like.

  • Patent number: 6867088
    Abstract: To provide a solid electrolytic capacitor where solid electrolyte is formed at the cut end part and at the masking part to a larger thickness than in other parts, where the adhesion of the solid electrolyte formed on the valve acting metal oxide film is improved, and whereby the capacitor is highly stabilized in various basic properties such as capacitance, dielectric loss (tan ?), leakage current and short circuit defective ratio and also in the reflow soldering heat resistance and moisture resistance load characteristics. These solid electrolytic capacitor can be obtained by forming electrically conducting polymer on a dielectric film by specifying time for dipping of the surface of a valve actiong metal porous body with a solution containing a monomer and with a solution containing an oxidizing agent, time for vaporization of the solvent of the solution containing a monomer, and polymerization conditions after dipping of the solution containing an oxidizing agent.

    Abstract: A system and method that prevent an input of variable length codes in which short length codes continue from being interrupted without an increase of a circuit scale are provided. The system comprises a variable length decoding device for decoding variable length codes, a buffer for buffering the variable length codes to be supplied to the variable length decoding device, a detector for detecting whether or not a occupation rate of the variable length codes in the buffer has increased, and a discarder for discarding the variable length codes to be supplied to the buffer when the detected result by the detector represents that the occupation rate of the variable length codes in the buffer has increased. The system further comprises an elementary stream extractor, disposed between the discarding device and the buffer, for extracting an elementary stream defined in MPEG standard.

  • Patent number: 6695706
    Abstract: Ring-shaped ridges (23, 24) that extends in the circumferential direction and is capable of falling toward a bellows portion (12) when a larger cylindrical portion (11) comes into press contact therewith are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the bushing (2). Since the ring-shaped ridges (23, 24) fall toward the bellows portion (12) when being tightened, when a pressure is exerted from grease, the pressure acts in the direction of restoring the ring-shaped ridge (23) to the original posture. Therefore, the ring-shaped ridge (23) serves as a dam and is brought into press contact with the larger cylindrical portion (11) at a high bearing pressure.
