  • Publication number: 20240194383
    Abstract: A soft magnetic iron alloy plate having saturation magnetic flux density higher than that of an electromagnetic pure iron plate without an excessive increase in an iron loss, a method for manufacturing the soft magnetic iron alloy plate, and an iron core and a rotating electric machine using the soft magnetic iron alloy plate are provided. A soft magnetic iron alloy plate according to the present invention includes chemical composition containing 2 to 10 at. % of N, 0 to 30 at. % of Co, 0 to 1.2 at. % of V, and a remaining portion including Fe and impurities, and in a thickness direction of the soft magnetic iron alloy plate, an outer nitrogen concentration transition region where N concentration on a main surface is 1 to 4 at. % and N concentration increases toward the inner side from the main surface, a high nitrogen concentration region where maximum N concentration is higher than N concentration of the main surface and less than 11 at. %, and a variation range of N concentration is within 1 at.

  • Publication number: 20240186841
    Abstract: A magnetic material includes body-centered tetragonal (bct) crystal including iron and nitrogen, in which a molar ratio of iron to nitrogen in the crystal exceeds 8. An iron core includes soft magnetic steel sheets stacked together, in which a part or the entirety of the soft magnetic steel sheets is formed of the magnetic material which includes body-centered tetragonal (bct) crystal including iron and nitrogen and has a molar ratio of iron to nitrogen in the crystal exceeds 8. A rotating electric machine includes an iron core including soft magnetic steel sheets stacked together, in which a part or the entirety of the soft magnetic steel sheets is formed of the magnetic material which includes body-centered tetragonal (bct) crystal including iron and nitrogen and has a molar ratio of iron to nitrogen in the crystal exceeds 8.

  • Publication number: 20240136096
    Abstract: A soft magnetic iron alloy sheet has a saturation magnetic flux density comparable to that of Permendur, with the same iron loss as electromagnetic pure iron, and a lower cost than Permendur. The soft magnetic iron alloy sheet includes, as a chemical composition, 30 at % or less of Co, 0.1 at % or more and 11 at % or less of N, and 1.2 at % or less of vanadium, with the remainder being Fe and impurities. In a thickness direction of the soft magnetic iron alloy sheet, a surface layer region has an average nitrogen concentration of 1 at % or more and 15 at % or less and an internal region has a lower average nitrogen concentration than the surface layer region. In the surface layer region, a thickness is 1% or more and 30% or less from both main surfaces of the sheet and iron-nitride martensite having a tetragonal structure is formed.

  • Publication number: 20240071270
    Abstract: A projection-type display apparatus includes a liquid crystal panel including a panel pixel, an optical path shifting element that shifts a projected pixel projected from the panel pixel, and a display control circuit that controls the liquid crystal panel and the optical path shifting element. The display control circuit supplies, to the liquid crystal panel, the same data signal and controls the projected pixel to be at a same position in a unit period f1-1 and a unit period f2-1 period, and controls the optical path shifting element to cause the position of the projected pixel in each of a unit period f1-2 to a unit period f1-4, to be different from the position of the projected pixel in a respective one of a unit period f2-2 to a unit period f2-4.

The display control circuit supplies, to the liquid crystal panel, the same data signal and controls the projected pixel to be at a same position in each of a unit period f1-1 and a unit period f2-1, and controls the optical path shifting element to cause a shift direction from the projected pixel before the shift toward the projected pixel after the shift from a unit period f1-2 to a unit period f1-4 to be opposite to the shift direction from the projected pixel before the shift toward the projected pixel after the shift from a unit period f2-2 to a unit period f2-4.
