Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] By the way, in the above-described background art, the metal layer and the radiation generating layer are laminated, and the whole is in a sheet shape. Therefore, it is suitable for installation on a flat surface or winding around a pipe or pipeline, etc., but it is difficult to provide it at a site with a complex shape even if it has flexibility.

[0005] This invention focuses on these points and aims to provide a radiation-activated paste that can be easily applied even to objects with complex shapes and structures, and that can effectively activate electricity, fluids, gases, etc. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The radiation-activated paste of the present invention is characterized by a mixture of radiation powder and conductive grease. Alternatively, epoxy resin may be further mixed in. In the main embodiment, the radiation powder is radium powder, and the conductive grease is carbon grease and copper grease. The radiation-activated device of the present invention includes, in addition to the radiation-activated paste, a metal layer and a magnet, and is installed in a passage for electric current, liquid, or gas, such as in a tire air valve. The aforementioned and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become clear from the following detailed description and accompanying drawings. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to the present invention, since the radiation powder is mixed with conductive grease to form a paste, it can be easily applied even to objects with complex shapes and structures. Furthermore, by adding conductive sheets or magnets, electricity, fluids, gases, etc., can be effectively activated. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0008] [Figure 1] This is an explanatory diagram showing the manufacturing process of the activated paste according to Example 1 of the present invention. [Figure 2] This figure shows an air valve cap according to Example 2 of the present invention. [Figure 3] This figure shows the activation filter of Example 3 of the present invention. [Figure 4] This figure shows how Example 3 is applied to dental instruments. [Figure 5] This figure shows how Example 3 is applied to dental laboratory instruments. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail below based on examples. [Examples]

[0010] First, Example 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to Figure 1. Figure 1 shows the manufacturing process of the radioactive paste 100 of this example. As shown in the figure, radium powder 10, carbon grease 20, and copper grease 30 are prepared as materials (step SA). Then, each of the above materials is mixed using a spatula 102 to obtain the radioactive paste (hereinafter referred to as "active paste") 100 of this example (step SB). Industrially, a mixer or kneader is used. Of these, a. Radium powder 10 functions as a radiation source. For example, "Natural Radium Ore Powder (MG-8) approximately 10 microns" manufactured by Device Co., Ltd. is used. This is made by processing natural radium ore into a powder. b. Carbon grease 20 provides the function of effectively allowing the radiation emitted from radium powder 10 to act on the target object. For example, "Carbon Grease," a conductive grease manufactured by Kitaco Corporation, is used. It has excellent conductivity due to the combination of conductive fine powders. c. Copper grease 30 also provides the function of effectively allowing the radiation emitted from radium powder 10 to act on the target object. For example, "COPASLIP" (registered trademark) from Molyslip Atlantic (UK) is used. This is a copper-based grease with excellent heat resistance, conductivity, and salt resistance.

[0011] The activated paste 100 may be used as is, or it may be further mixed with epoxy resin 50 (step SC) to obtain epoxy radioactive paste (hereinafter referred to as "epoxy activated paste") 200 (step SD). As the epoxy resin 50, for example, "JB QuickWeld," an iron powder-containing epoxy adhesive (quick-drying type) manufactured by JB WELD (USA), is suitable. The inclusion of iron improves conductivity.

[0012] For example, a suitable mixing ratio of radium powder 10, carbon grease 20, and copper grease 30 in the activated paste 100 is 3% radium powder, 17% carbon grease, and 80% copper grease (by weight). Furthermore, a suitable mixing ratio of activated paste 100 to iron powder-containing epoxy adhesive in epoxy activated paste 200 is 6% activated paste and 94% iron powder-containing epoxy adhesive by weight.

[0013] A higher proportion of radium powder 10 increases the effects of radiation, but also makes it more difficult to form a paste. Conversely, a lower proportion of radium powder 10 reduces the effects of radiation, but makes it easier to form a paste, improving processability and allowing for the creation of complex shapes. To achieve maximum effect with a small amount of radium powder 10, highly conductive carbon grease 20 or copper grease 30 are used in combination. Compared to using only copper grease 30, adding carbon grease 20 improves performance by 30-40%.

[0014] The activated paste 100 or epoxy activated paste 200 described above are paste-like and viscous. When applied to an object to be activated, the radiation emitted from the radium powder 10 acts on the object through the conductive components contained in the carbon grease 20 or copper grease 30. This causes the object to become excited and activated. In other words, by mixing the radium powder 10, carbon grease 20, and copper grease 30 to form a paste, the increased conductivity due to the carbon grease 20 and copper grease 30 amplifies the effect of the radiation from the radium powder 10, and furthermore, even if the object has a complex shape or structure, it can be easily coated and formed. [Examples]

[0015] Next, with reference to Figures 2(A) to (C), Embodiment 2 of the present invention will be described. This embodiment is an example in which the epoxy activated paste 200 described above is applied to the air valve of an automobile or motorcycle tire. Figure (A) is a perspective view, and Figure (B) shows a cross-section viewed in the direction of the arrow along the line #2 to #2 in the same figure. Figure (C) shows a photograph of the prototype. In these figures, the activated air valve cap 300 of this embodiment is attached to the air valve 360 ​​provided on the rim 350 of the automobile tire.

[0016] The activated air valve cap 300 comprises a copper tape 304 attached to the tip of a cap nut 302 that covers the tip 362 of the air valve 360, and a magnet 306 provided on the copper tape 304. A neodymium magnet is a suitable example of the magnet 306, and it is fixed in place by the epoxy activated paste 200 shown in the above embodiment. Furthermore, the copper tape 304 and the magnet 306 attached to the tip of the cap nut 302 are completely covered and fixed in place by the epoxy activated paste 200.

[0017] Among these, as the cap nut 302, a metal having conductivity is used, and more preferably, brass with a high copper content is used. Further, as the copper tape 304, for example, "Embossed Copper Foil Conductive Tape 2245" manufactured by 3M Japan Limited is suitable. This is a conductive tape in which an adhesive is applied to an embossed copper foil and has high conductivity.

[0018] The epoxy active paste 200 is initially kneadable and plastically deformable, so that the magnet 306 can be easily attached to the tip of the cap nut 302 and the whole can be coated. As time passes, the epoxy active paste 200 gradually solidifies.

[0019] Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. The air valve 360 is filled with air, and radiation emitted from the radium powder 10 of the epoxy active paste 200 and magnetic lines of force emitted from the magnet 306 act on it. At this time, since the carbon grease 20, copper grease 30, and copper tape 304 of the radium powder 10 have conductivity, the radiation and magnetic lines of force act efficiently on the air in the air valve 360 and are activated.

[0020] FIG. 2(D) is an example in which an air valve cap 380 obtained by removing the copper tape 304 from the activated air valve cap 300 described above is attached to the tip 376 of an air valve 374 provided on the rim 372 of a bicycle 370. Further, in this embodiment, a copper-magnet laminate 310 is provided on the outer periphery of the air valve 374. The copper-magnet laminate 310 has a laminated structure formed by a copper tape 305 attached to the outer periphery of the air valve 374 and a sheet-shaped magnet 307 coated thereon. Also in this embodiment, the air valve cap 380 and the copper-magnet laminate 310 provide the same technical effects as those in the case of the above-described automobile and motorcycle.

[0021] <Evaluation of the Prototype> Next, a prototype of the activated air valve cap 300 of the above embodiment was manufactured and its effect was evaluated by actually attaching it to the tire of an automobile or motorcycle. The evaluation was carried out by conducting a questionnaire with the driver or rider regarding the following (1) to (8) and obtaining their responses. Name (Age, Driving experience): (1) Vehicle information (year, manufacturer, model name): (2) Changes in tire rolling feel: (3) Changes in tire contact (grip): (4) Changes in handling: (5) Changes in tire road noise: (6) Impression when compared to a normal air valve cap: (7) Other changes noticed when using tuning air valve caps: (8) Do you want this product to be commercialized?

[0022] Typical examples of answers are shown below. First, here are some examples of answers related to automobiles. Example answer 1 KH, 70 years old, 52 years of driving experience. (1) 2007, Hiace 200 Series Super Long, Diesel Turbo (2) Engine braking when the throttle is released is reduced, allowing you to release the throttle earlier when stopping at a red light ahead. (3) Among the various tire air valve cap samples, two types clearly show differences. One provides a solid feeling of contact with the road on highways: you get the feeling that the tires are pressed against the road surface, making long-distance travel very comfortable. Even with a high roof, it also provides increased confidence against crosswinds. The other cap does the opposite, making the vehicle much more responsive when stopping and starting in urban areas or when making sharp turns in narrow alleys. (4) The solid feel of the valve caps makes the steering feel heavy. (5) There were also samples in which road noise was clearly reduced. (6) With the normal caps, the tire contact feel and handling tend to be poor, especially when the vehicle is unloaded, and the body tends to bounce. However, with the tuning valves, whether you choose the type that enhances a lighter feel or the cap that provides a more solid contact feel, the handling becomes more stable. (7) With the lighter cap, the initial steering response is better, so you won't feel stressed even when stopping and starting in the city. (8) I often drive long distances, and I would really like to see this product commercialized as it reduces fatigue during long drives.

[0023] Example answer 2 OH, 53 years old, 34 years of driving experience (1) 2023 Volvo XC90 Recharge (2) It rolls very smoothly. It runs smoothly in EV mode. (3) I can feel that the sense of contact with the road has improved. I feel less like I'm being thrown around on the curves on the highway that I always take. (4) There were times when it felt like it was sticking, and at those times it felt like it was slightly dulled. However, it wasn't difficult to drive. (5) It will become noticeably quieter. (6) It felt like I had switched to a higher-grade tire. (7) When driving in EV mode, it felt more powerful on uphill slopes. The drop in tire pressure was less. (8) I would really like to see this product made into a product.

[0024] Example answer 3 MS, age 54, driving experience 31 years (1) 2022 Honda ZRV (2) The ball rolled much better, to the point where the difference was clearly noticeable. (3) The handling feels lighter, but there's no feeling that the grip has worsened. Cornering at high speeds is also stable. (4) It feels light, but there is no discomfort such as it being too light. (5) Road noise has been significantly reduced. (6) A reduction in rolling and noise can be felt when the accelerator is released. (7) As the rolling resistance improved, the time spent with the accelerator off increased, resulting in better fuel efficiency. (8) I think it would be good to commercialize it. Depending on the design and price, I think I might buy it. This kind of tuning is easy to get into.

[0025] Example answer 4 IU, 46 years old, 26 years of driving experience. (1) 2017 Isuzu Giga (large trailer head) (2) The tires roll easily. (3) The grip is difficult to judge because it is under load from the cargo. (4) The handling is light. (5) Noise is difficult to judge. Without the valve, even small bumps cause considerable vibration, but the vibration is reduced when the valve cap is attached. (6) It feels lighter, and I can't imagine driving without tuning valve caps anymore. (7) I think everyone will understand once they use it. (8) I would really like to see this commercialized.

[0026] Example answer 5 SK, age 54, 36 years of driving experience (evaluation on snowy roads) (1) 2007 Honda Vamos Hobio Pro (Impressions based on performance on snow, compacted snow, and icy roads using a tuned air valve, with Dunlop Winter Maxx SV01 145-80 / 12 studless tires, 2nd season) (2) No particular changes were observed on the entire snow-cleared road surface. (3) When braking and accelerating on compacted snow and icy roads, you will feel a sense of grip (a feeling of the road surface being firmly attached) when the equipment is installed. (4) While sudden steering maneuvers are prohibited on compacted snow and icy roads, I never felt any instability in the steering. (5) When driving on a dry road with the windows open and listening to the reflected sound from the guardrail, the reduction is clearly noticeable, and when you close the windows to check, it's so noticeable that you can even hear it inside the car, which is surprising. (I felt this was a common characteristic of tuning air valves.) (6) We repeated the process three times, comparing the normal setup and the setup with the tuned air valve installed. The feeling of how it absorbs road shocks is similar to the reassuring feeling of having a studless tire with good grip that retains its fresh elasticity. (7) I felt that using the features of each version appropriately depending on the situation made for a more comfortable driving experience. (8) I can drive safely even on snowy roads, so I would really like to see this product commercialized.

[0027] Next, here is an example answer for motorcycles. Example answer 1 HT, 64 years old, 25 years of driving experience (1) 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 650 (2) In the early models, the effect was subtle and not easily noticeable to everyone, but in the latest model, the rolling resistance has been improved, resulting in lighter handling and a very interesting setting, especially on winding roads. (3) The tire's contact with the road has improved even more than the initial model, resulting in significantly increased grip. This makes driving in dry conditions more reassuring, and allows for confident handling of sudden braking. The sense of security in rainy conditions is excellent. (4) The handling is not so light as to cause anxiety, but rather allows for precise line-following driving, making it a reassuring choice on both highways and winding roads. (5) Road noise has also been significantly reduced compared to the initial model, and with the improved grip, it has become a much more comfortable ride. (6) This makes a huge difference, and you can see the effect within a few dozen meters of riding. (7) In short, changes are noticeable in everything, and I think anyone who uses the latest model tuning valve cap will clearly notice the difference. While other products of this type exist, you get used to them after using them for a long time and you stop noticing the difference, but with this tuning valve, you can feel the difference at any time. (8) Of course, if such a significant improvement can be achieved, it will also contribute to safety, and we would very much like to see it commercialized. In that case, we believe that a design different from other products is necessary, so we would like you to highlight the differences.

[0028] Example answer 2 KK, age 55, driving experience 37 years (1) 2017 KTM Super Duke (2) I immediately noticed that pushing and pulling the vehicle became easier. (3) Before using the sample, I deliberately drove on my usual route, including bumps (gas pipe holes, bridge joints, etc.), without doing anything to the tires, such as adjusting the air pressure. To improve the accuracy of the data, I immediately attached the valve caps after the drive. I felt the effect almost immediately after starting to drive. I was using Metzeler M9RR tires, which have high tire rigidity, so I was bothered by the jarring feeling from road bumps, but after attaching the valve caps, I no longer noticed it, and I felt like I was using a higher-grade tire. In terms of grip, the improvement wasn't as significant as when using high-grip tires, but I definitely felt that the tires were following the road surface better. (4) Despite being a vehicle weighing approximately 200 kg, it was light and agile, allowing for smooth cornering through S-shaped curves and intersections. (5) I couldn't really tell because my own vehicle's exhaust is loud, but when I tested it on my Hiace van, it was definitely quieter. (6) It is definitely more effective than a normal cap. (7) The wheels get dirtier than before, but the economies of scale outweigh this, so I put the caps on. When you think about it, they absorb brake dust, so they don't release heavy metals and other substances into the atmosphere, making them an eco-friendly product that doesn't put a burden on the environment. You can just wash the wheels. Please skip this part. (8) I hope this product will be commercialized. There are similar products from other companies, but they are too expensive, and there is a big difference in effectiveness between them. I think some manufacturers haven't properly collected verification data, so if it could be commercialized at a more reasonable price, I think it would spread to many more people.

[0029] Example answer 3 OA, 43 years old, 25 years of driving experience (1) 2020 MV Agusta Brutale 800 (2) There is no particular resistance, nor is it light, but it feels more stable. (3) When the valve cap was attached, the feeling of contact with the road surface was about 2.5 times stronger than the normal feeling of contact with the road surface. (4) Because of the improved grip, the handling feels smoother and more stable. The bike no longer wobbles at the start. The good points of the Bridgestone S23 are more emphasized. (5) There was no change in road noise. (6) "What is this? You've got to be kidding me!" was my first reaction. I was amazed to feel the tires sticking to the road surface. I drove around familiar roads in Tokyo for an hour without a specific destination, changing the tires four times in total, and I realized that it really did make a difference. At first, I wasn't confident I could feel the difference, so I just planned to do a quick lap and come back, but I was left wondering why it was different and how, and I was really impressed. (7) I think the ride quality of the tires has also improved. (8) I would really like to see this commercialized.

[0030] Next, we will show an example of responses for bicycles. In the case of bicycles, the evaluation was conducted by sending a questionnaire to users regarding the following (1) to (6) and obtaining their responses. Name (Age) (1) Has the force required to press the pedals become lighter? (2) Has the distance it rolled increased without pressing the pedal? (3) Has it become easier to maintain speed? (4) Has the ride quality improved? (5) Has the effort required to pedal uphill decreased? (6) Any other changes: Example answer 1 OS 52 years old (1) The initial step is lighter. (2) It rolls better than before. (3) Yes (4) The rough texture has been reduced. (5) It became lighter (6) I got used to it very quickly.

[0031] Example answer 2 WH 70 years old (1) Yes (2) I think (3) Yes (4) Yes (5) Yes (6) I feel that the start of running is lighter than before.

[0032] Example answer 3 WM42 years old (1) Yes (2) Yes (3) Yes (4) Yes (5) Yes (6) Starting off has become smoother.

[0033] Based on the responses received from numerous drivers and riders, the following technical benefits can be expected. a. The rolling feel of the tires is improved, resulting in smoother rotation and contributing to improved fuel efficiency. b. Reduced road noise contributes to improved ride comfort and reduced fatigue during long-distance driving. c. The tires' contact with the road improves, and the vehicle becomes more stable. This improved stability in rainy or windy conditions also contributes to increased safety. d. On snowy or compacted snow roads, improved tire contact with the road contributes to improved stability. e. The steering becomes smoother, improving operability and handling. f. Tire pressure is less likely to decrease.

[0034] Similarly, when the present invention is applied to a bicycle, a. The force required to pedal has become lighter, and the distance the bike can roll without pedaling has increased. b. The ride comfort has improved as it is less likely to pick up on bumps and unevenness in the road surface. These effects can be obtained. [Examples]

[0035] Next, with reference to Figure 3, Embodiment 3 of the present invention will be described. While Embodiment 2 described above is an example of applying the present invention to air inside a tire, this embodiment is an example of applying the present invention to the current in a cable or electric wire. Figure (A) shows the device attached to a cable, Figure (B) shows a cross-section viewed in the direction of the arrow along the #3-#3 line in Figure (A), and Figure (C) shows a prototype in an open state.

[0036] In these figures, the activation filter 400 is configured to be cylindrical in shape by sandwiching the cable 450 between two semi-cylindrical housings 402. In the illustrated example, one end of each of the two semi-cylindrical housings 402 is joined to the cable 450 in a bendable manner along its longitudinal direction, and the activation filter 400 can be attached to the cable 450 by bending this section.

[0037] A semi-cylindrical magnet 410 is provided inside the semi-cylindrical housing 402, and a radioactive paste 110 is applied to the inside of this magnet 410. Then, a copper tape 412 is attached to the inside of this radioactive paste 110. In other words, the structure is such that the magnet 410, radioactive paste 110, and copper tape 412 are stacked in that order from the semi-cylindrical housing 402 toward the cable 450.

[0038] Next, to explain the operation of this embodiment, an electric current flows through the cable 450, and radiation emitted from the radium powder 10 of the radioactive paste 110 and magnetic field lines emitted from the magnet 410 act on this current. At this time, because the carbon grease 20, copper grease 30, and copper tape 412 of the radium powder 10 are conductive, the radiation and magnetic field lines efficiently act on the electric current flowing through the cable 450, causing it to be activated.

[0039] By installing this embodiment in the various wiring and piping of automobiles and motorcycles, the following effects can be obtained. a. The intake air and gasoline are modified to become more easily combustible, unwanted vibrations are reduced, and the engine becomes more powerful. It also contributes to improved fuel efficiency. b. When applied to the engine's blow-by hose, it reduces vibration and makes engine acceleration smoother. c. The air conditioner's performance improves, and power loss is reduced. d. The brightness of lights such as headlights is improved, resulting in improved visibility. e. Brake effectiveness and controllability are improved. f. Combustion efficiency in the spark plug is improved. g. The operation of various control systems on a motorcycle (accelerator, clutch cable, shift rod, drum brake rod, etc.) becomes lighter.

[0040] Next, Figure 4 shows an example of applying the activation filter 400 described above to dental instruments. The activation filter 400 is attached to the cables and hoses 450 connected to dental instruments 460-464 such as drills. For example, instrument 460 is an example of a three-way syringe, instrument 462 is an example of an air turbine, and instrument 464 is an example of a micromotor. This activates the electric current, liquid, and gas passing through the cables and hoses 450. Figure 5 shows an example of attaching the activation filter 400 to cables and hoses 452 connected to dental technician instruments 470-474. For example, instrument 470 is an example of a dental laboratory micromotor, instrument 472 is an example of a blowpipe, and instrument 474 is an example of a model trimmer. In the blowpipe example in Figure 5(B), the activation filter 400 is attached to the air and gas pipes 452A and 452B, respectively.

[0041] In this embodiment as well, the prototype activation filter 400 was actually attached to various dental instruments and laboratory instruments to evaluate its effectiveness. Then, the following questionnaires (1) to (8) were administered to dentists and dental technicians, and their responses were obtained. Name, age, clinical history: (1) Impressions of using it with an air turbine: (2) Impressions of using a micromotor (contra-angle, 5x speed): (3) Impressions of using a micromotor (straight): (4) User experience with ultrasound: (5) Impressions of using a dental micromotor: (6) Impressions of using other equipment: (7) Overall impressions after using it: (8) Do you want this product to be commercialized?

[0042] Typical examples of responses are shown below. First, here is an example of a response from a dentist. Example answer 1 MT 53 years old, 29 years of clinical experience (inventor of this case) (1) The rotational speed increases, torque increases, vibration decreases, and shaft wobble becomes less likely. (2) It becomes quieter, torque increases, vibration decreases, and shaft wobble becomes less likely. (3) It becomes quieter, torque increases, vibration decreases, and shaft wobble is less likely to occur. The rotation speed does not drop easily even when cutting hard materials. (4) It becomes quieter, but there is no noticeable decrease in power. (5) It becomes quieter, torque increases, vibration decreases, and shaft wobble is less likely. When cutting hard materials such as plaster, chipping is less likely. (6) Lathe: Faster rotation start-up, increased torque, and reduced wobble, resulting in shorter polishing time. Model trimmer: Quieter operation, increased torque, and reduced vibration. It can now continue even when pressing hard plaster. Plaster vacuum mixer: Faster vacuum generation speed and increased vacuum level, resulting in improved physical properties of the mixed plaster. Water clogging has been significantly reduced in various machines. (7) The accuracy of the equipment will improve, which will help to improve the accuracy of treatment and reduce patient discomfort. (8) This product does not currently exist in the world, so I would really like to see it commercialized.

[0043] Example answer 2 TS, 53 years old, 29 years of clinical experience (1) The torque becomes stronger and the sound becomes quieter, and the noise (vibration) is reduced. (2) The torque becomes stronger and the sound becomes quieter, and the noise (vibration) is reduced. (3) The torque becomes stronger and the sound becomes quieter, and the noise (vibration) is reduced. (4) Not used this time. (5) Not used. (6) Not used. (7) The change is so subtle that it might go unnoticed in a blind test, but the above phenomenon is clearly noticeable when compared to a coreless design. With long-term use, a reduction in malfunctions and water clogging is observed. (8) I would like to buy it if it wasn't too expensive.

[0044] Example answer 3 OH, 53 years old, 27 years of clinical experience (1) I felt the smoothest operation with one unit installed. Surprisingly, there was almost no difference when using two units compared to one. I also tried installing them at the base and in the middle of the hose, but I didn't notice any difference. (2) My impressions are almost the same as with the air turbine. The smoothness with one unit felt significantly better compared to when there was no unit, but not so much with two units. The smoothness was more noticeable with the 5x speed setting. (3)(same as above) (4) The ultrasonic device was malfunctioning (poor contact), so I could barely tell the difference between having it and not having it. (5) Not used. (6) Clear performance improvements were observed with the model trimmer and polishing lathe. (7) The air turbine, 5x speed, felt very smooth. However, the part-time orthodontist and dental hygienist said they couldn't tell the difference. (8) I would really like to see this product made into a product.

[0045] Next, we will show an example of a response from a dental technician. Example answer 1 TS, 65 years old, 45 years of experience as a dental technician Micromotor for dental laboratory work: The response to foot pedal input has improved, and the drive noise has been reduced. Vibration has decreased and torque has increased, making it less prone to shaking even when cutting hard materials such as plaster. Brush polishing lathe: Reaches maximum rotation speed faster and produces quieter rotation. Increased torque prevents rotation from dropping even when pressing hard objects. Sandblaster: The sand output is improved, and clogging during use has been eliminated. The light inside the box is brighter. Electric welding machine (tack welding machine): I felt the output during tack welding had increased, so I lowered the memory setting from 5 to 4. Electrolytic polishing machine for non-precious metals: The polishing time has been shortened due to increased output. High-frequency vacuum pressure casting machines: Metal melting time has been reduced. The durability of ceramic crucibles for metal melting has increased. Depending on the crucible, some can be used two or three times more times. Casting ring incinerator: This equipment has been in use for over 20 years, but the heating speed has increased. Model trimmer: The rotation noise has been reduced. The rotation speed does not drop as easily even when hard plaster is pressed against it. Investment material vacuum agitator: The vacuum pressure meter increases. The increased pressure results in a smoother mixture. Blowpipe: When melting metal, a large flame can reach higher temperatures than without a core, so reducing the amount of gas and air allows for melting with a smaller flame. During brazing, a smaller flame is sufficient, resulting in a more focused flame and smoother solder flow, allowing for quicker work and inhibiting oxidation of the brazed joint.

[0046] Example answer 2 EY is 67 years old and has 46 years of experience as a dental technician. Casting ring furnace: The heating speed has been increased. Steam cleaner: The spray becomes stronger and more continuous. Brush polishing lathe: Increased rotation speed, quieter operation, and increased torque. Vacuum agitator: The rate at which the vacuum level rises has increased. The resulting mixture is smoother. Model trimmer: The rotation speed increased, and the torque improved. It's effective when trimming large areas, such as the base of plaster models. It's also necessary for trimming large quantities of models. I think it will save labor during long dental work sessions. Micromotors for dental laboratory work: Increased rotation speed. Does this result in smoother cutting? Does it prevent chipping of plaster models? Sandblaster: The increased ejection speed is noticeable, and the force doesn't decrease. High-frequency casting machines: They definitely reduce melting time and increase heat output. Blowpipe: Because the tip of the reducing flame is stable, it becomes easier to control the position of the flame, and the brazing process can be completed in a short time. Overheating can be prevented, and problems such as wax voids and melting of the base material have been almost eliminated.

[0047] Example answer 3 NN, 49 years old, 29 years of experience as a dental technician. Micromotor for dental laboratory work: It becomes quieter and smoother. It provides much greater stability during plaster trimming, and the bur feels more natural. Light curing unit: The degree of curing increased, and the unpolymerized layer was significantly reduced. Blowpipe: The flame becomes more stable, and the metal melts faster. Ring Furnace: The time it takes to reach 700℃ is about 4-5 minutes faster than without any equipment. This leads to savings on electricity costs. Vacuum mixer: The meter rises noticeably faster. No more air bubbles are getting in, and the mixture comes out much smoother. Sandblaster: The sand output has improved. Lease: The sound is a little quieter and the torque has increased. Model trimmer: The torque has increased considerably, and the rotation does not drop easily even when pressing hard plaster against it. Ultrasonic cleaner: Before installing the ferrite core, the vibration was weak, and I was planning to buy a new ultrasonic cleaner, but after installing the ferrite core, it revived and became stress-free. Radio antenna: I was surprised that the static disappeared. Feedback on using it with various dental laboratory equipment: I felt it was quite effective on older equipment. I have high expectations for its performance on newer equipment, or even better.
