20090047831 | DISCHARGE LAMP SOCKET - A socket includes a housing having a first housing portion and a second housing portion attachable to the first housing portion to cover the first housing portion, a starter transformer and accommodated inside the housing, a central terminal coupled to the starter transformer and disposed inside the housing such that, when the discharge lamp is attached to the socket, a central electrode of the discharge lamp contacts the central terminal. The first housing portion has a base, and a first wall portion extending from the base in a direction in which the discharge lamp is attached to the socket. The second housing portion has a second wall portion which, when the first and second housing portions are attached together, overlaps with the first wall portion such that the first and second wall portions surround the central terminal on an inner side of a peripheral edge of the base. | 02-19-2009 |
20090053935 | Lamp socket - A lamp socket includes a housing case; a transformer to be housed in a transformer receiving section of the housing case; and a circuit board that is housed in a circuit board receiving section of the housing case and is assembled independently from the transformer. The transformer has a primary member and a secondary member, so that a voltage is applied on the primary member and a high voltage is output from the secondary member. In the lamp socket, an opening portion is provided in a barrier that separates the transformer receiving section and the circuit board receiving section, so that the primary member extends from the transformer receiving section to the circuit board receiving section. The opening portion is closed with a part that holds the primary member. | 02-26-2009 |
20090065182 | COOLING DEVICE - There is provided a cooling device which includes a plurality of cooling modules | 03-12-2009 |
20090080155 | ELECTRIC POWER CONVERSION APPARATUS - In a conventional cooling device, a heat pipe or a circulation-type liquid cooler provided with a pump is used and therefore, a large space is needed for the cooling device. There is provided a cooling device which includes a plurality of cooling modules | 03-26-2009 |
20100232110 | COOLING APPARATUS AND POWER CONVERTER - A cooling apparatus with high strength and good heat radiation characteristics. In the cooling apparatus, a heat exchanger is joined to an evaporator disposed on the lower side in a face to face manner; a containing unit of the heat exchanger includes a heat exchanger high temperature liquid outlet, and a two-phase fluid inlet in a joint portion with the evaporator; an outlet header of the heat exchanger includes an intermediate liquid outlet at a joint portion with the evaporator; and the evaporator includes a two-phase fluid outlet in the joint portion with the heat exchanger in opposition to the two-phase fluid inlet of the containing unit, and including an intermediate liquid inlet at the joint portion with the heat exchanger in opposition to the intermediate liquid outlet of the outlet header. | 09-16-2010 |
20110003519 | TERMINAL JOINING STRUCTURE AND TERMINAL JOINING METHOD - A terminal joining structure includes a terminal having a tubular barrel portion and a flange portion that is integrally formed at the axis-direction end of the barrel portion, a conductor substrate on which is opened a through-hole for inserting the barrel portion, and a ring that fits on the barrel portion on the opposite side of the conductor substrate. On the barrel portion is formed a taper that increases in diameter toward the flange portion. The diameter of the larger-diameter portion of the taper is larger than the inner diameter of the through-hole. The terminal is caulked to cause radially outward expansion of an end part of the barrel portion, which passes through the ring, on the opposite side of the conductor substrate and is fixed to the conductor substrate together with the ring. | 01-06-2011 |
20110140290 | CHARGE FORMING DEVICE AND VALVE FOR THE SAME - One implementation of a carburetor may have a fuel bowl in which a supply of fuel is received for delivery from the carburetor to an engine, and may include a valve rotatably supported by a body, an operating lever coupled to the valve, and a stopper. The operating lever may move the valve between a running position in which fuel flows through the valve in a first direction and into the fuel bowl, a stop position in which fuel does not flow either into or out of the fuel bowl through the valve, and a drainage position in which fuel flows in a second direction out of the fuel bowl through the valve. The stopper may be moveable between a non-permissive state in which the operating lever is not permitted to move in a first direction from one of the running position and the stop position to the other position, and a permissive state in which the operating lever is allowed to move in the first direction. | 06-16-2011 |
20110176281 | VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE - A vehicle control device includes plural functional modules each of which is a minimum part unit that contributes to change in input/output potentials, and has an input and an output of one power line or one set of power lines, except for power lines having a same potential as that on an overhead wire side or that on a ground side. The functional module has an interface surface on one side surface, to which both of a signal line and the power line are connected. Each interface surface is divided into a first interface area in which a signal line terminal connected to the signal line is placed, and a second interface area in which a power line terminal connected to the power line is placed. The plural functional modules are adjacently arranged such that the interface surfaces face in a same direction, the first interface areas are located on one end side in common, and the second interface areas are located on the other end side in common. | 07-21-2011 |
20110188200 | FORCED-AIR-COOLED TYPE VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE - There is provided a first accommodating chamber that accommodates a cooling unit frame that supports a cooling unit. The cooling unit includes a cooler that cools heat generated from a snubber circuit component and a semiconductor device utilizing cooling air from an air blower, a conductor bar that electrically connects the semiconductor device and a capacitor with each other, the snubber circuit component, and the semiconductor device. There is also provided a second accommodating chamber that accommodates the capacitor. The cooling unit and the capacitor can be separated from each other by detaching one of a connecting portion between a laminated bus bar and the conductor bar and a connecting portion between the laminated bus bar and the capacitor | 08-04-2011 |
