A tank holding mechanism holds a gas tank that has a cylindrical portion and hemispherical-shaped domical portions formed on respective sides of the cylindrical portion. The tank holding mechanism includes: a tank accommodating portion that contacts a peripheral wall of the cylindrical portion of the gas tank; tank end-side members provided near respective ends of the gas tank; a tank band that pushes the gas tank against the tank accommodating portion; and band securing portions that secure end portions of the tank band to the respective tank end-side members. The tank band is routed from one of the domical portions through the cylindrical portion to the other domical portion. The tank band extends along a diagonal line of the gas tank over an outer face of the cylindrical portion, conforms to the outer face of the cylindrical portion, and conforms to hemispherical outer faces of both of the domical portions.

A burn-in socket for receiving an IC package (2) is provided. The burn-in socket includes a socket body with a plurality of contacts (7) disposed therein and a cover (6) rotatablely coupled to the socket body. The socket body defines a receiving space (500) for receiving the IC package (2) to be tested therein. The cover (6) has a pushing portion (611) capable of pressing on the IC package (2) toward the socket body when the cover (6) is turned to a closed position. At least one pair of pick-up arrangements (8) are provided around the pushing portion (611) for automatic pick-up of the IC package (2).

A connector comprises a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a first connector main body and a plurality of first terminals mounted side by side in the longitudinal direction of the first connector main body on both sides in the transverse direction of the first connector main body. The second connector includes a second connector main body for mating with the first connector main body and a plurality of second terminals mounted side by side in the longitudinal direction of the second connector main body on both sides in the transverse direction of the second connector main body. Each first terminal includes a first contact portion and a second contact portion facing each other. The first contact portion and the second contact portion overlap the corresponding second terminal. The amount of overlap is greater than the amount of clearance in the transverse direction of the first connector main body. Each second terminal is inserted between the first contact portion and the second contact portion of the corresponding first terminal and contacting the first terminal when the first connector main body is mated with the second connector main body.

A stent for a vessel implanted in the vessel of the living body including a main body portion of the stent formed into a tube by a yarn formed of a biodegradable polymer exhibiting a shape memory function. The main body portion of the stent is shape-memorized to a size that can be inplanted in the vessel. The main body portion of the stent is implanted in the vessel of the living body as it is contracted in diameter by an external force, and is enlarged in diameter by being heated with the temperature of the living body. The main body portion of the stent is formed by winding a yarn formed of a biodegradable polymer in a tube form as the yarn is bent in a zigzag design. The main body portion of the stent is enlarged or contracted in diameter with the bends of the yarn as the displacing portions.

A filament lamp includes multiple filament assemblies having filaments connected to paired leads, arrayed in order within a light emitting tube and following a tube axis thereof. Each lead is electrically connected in a seal area. Each filament is powered independently. The light emitting tube includes insulating walls or inner tubes between the filaments and leads that have openings through which the leads pass, and located along the tube axis in proximity to the inner wall of the light emitting tube. Multiple lead accommodation spaces corresponding to the number of leads are provided in the light emitting tube by the insulating walls with each lead passing through an opening in the insulating wall and placed without short circuits in its lead accommodation space.

The invention is directed to a pod clamping unit for fixing a pod to a support table in a load port, the pod including a pod body capable of storing a wafer in the interior thereof and a lid, the load port having a pod opener that opens / closes the lid. The pod clamping unit includes a clamp portion that is provided on the support table and adapted to engage with a first engagement portion provided on a lower surface of the pod body to restrict upward movement of the pod relative to the support table, a restriction pin that is movable upwardly and downwardly relative to the support table and adapted to engage with a second engagement portion provided on the lower surface of the pod body to restrict movement of the pod in a disengaging direction that causes disengagement between the first engagement portion and the clamp portion, and a vertically driving portion that moves the restriction pin up to / down from the second engagement portion.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a stator for an electric rotating machine. The method includes the steps of: (1) forming a plurality of planar electric wires, each of the planar electric wires including a plurality of in-slot portions to be received in slots of a stator core and a plurality of turn portions to be located outside of the slots to connect the in-slot portions; (2) rolling each of the planar electric wires through plastic deformation into a spiral or circular-arc shape; (3) forming a hollow cylindrical stator coil by assembling the rolled electric wires through operations of making relative axial movement therebetween; and (4) assembling the stator core and the stator coil together to form the stator.

The invention relates to an arresting element (30) for a blocking element (20) of a locking device of a vehicle door (100), with a fixing area (31) for fixing the arresting element (30) at the locking device, a sensor area (33) for detecting a deformation of a door panel (101, 102) of the vehicle, particularly an inner door panel (102), which is directed towards the interior of the vehicle, and an arresting area (35) for arresting the blocking element (20).

Provided is a lever type connector for fitting connectors by swinging a lever 100, in which protrusions 115 and 116 are provided on an outer peripheral portion of the one end side of the lever side plate 102, a reception portion 15A for preventing the lever side plate from opening outward by engaging with the protrusions provided on the outer peripheral portion of the lever side plate in a male connector housing 10H for mounting the lever, and the protrusions 115 and 116 and the reception portion 15A are provided to engage with each other when the lever mounted on at least the male connector housing is set to a temporary locking position before connector fitting.

A clamping plate includes a circular-plate-shaped main plate and a cylindrical outer wall formed by bending an outer edge portion of the main plate. The clamping plate moves due to being pulled by magnetic attraction by a disc rotating mechanism to clamp a disk-shaped recording medium to the disc rotating mechanism. At least one of a convex that protrudes outward in a radial direction of the main plate and a concave that is depressed inward in the radial direction is formed in the outer wall.

A table saw (10) includes a table top (16) over which a saw blade (20) is positioned. The upper region is covered by a guard (26) which is height-adjustable relative to the saw blade (20) in particular, and the saw blade (20) is angularly-displaceable relative to the table top (16). A gap (32) is located between the guard (26) and the table top (16). The table saw is made safer to handle by the fact that the guard (26) includes a protective panel (36) which is movably supported relative to the guard (26) and closes the gap (32) in a manner such that it cannot be penetrated by the operator's fingers.
