20100301411 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - The invention prevents a source-drain breakdown voltage of a DMOS transistor from decreasing due to dielectric breakdown in a portion of a N type drift layer having high concentration formed in an active region near field oxide film corner portions surrounding an gate width end portion. The field oxide film corner portions are disposed on the outside of the gate width end portion so as to be further away from a P type body layer formed in the gate width end portion by forming the active region wider on the outside of the gate width end portion than in a gate width center portion. By this, the N type drift layer having high concentration near the field oxide film corner portions are disposed further away from the P type body layer without increasing the device area. | 12-02-2010 |

20130140975 | SPARK PLUG - A spark plug having excellent load life performance even when the spark plug receives an impact or vibration. The spark plug includes an accommodated portion of a metallic terminal, which is accommodated in an axial hole of an insulator, having a plurality of bent portions formed as a result of proper bending of the accommodated portion. The bent portions are in close vicinity to an inner circumferential surface of the insulator at three or more locations, and are present without localizing in the radial direction of the axial hole. | 06-06-2013 |
20130175922 | SPARK PLUG AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR SAME - A spark plug having excellent load life performance, and a method of manufacturing the same, the spark plug having a connecting portion which electrically connects a center electrode and a metallic terminal within the axial hole of an insulator, the connecting portion including a resistor whose porosity is 5.0% or less. | 07-11-2013 |
20130187531 | SPARK PLUG - A spark plug having improved load life performance and fixing strength of a metallic terminal to an insulator, and which reduces the incidence of breakage of the insulator when the metallic terminal is inserted into the axial hole of the insulator. The spark plug of the present invention is characterized in that the distance ((B−A)/2) between the forward end portion of the metallic terminal and the wall surface of an intermediate diameter portion of the axial hole of the insulator falls within a range of 0.02 mm to 0.2 mm, the shrinkage amount (D−C) of a connecting portion falls within a range of 6 mm to 27 mm, and the Vickers hardness of the metallic terminal at ordinary temperature falls within a range of 100 Hv to 430 Hv. | 07-25-2013 |
20130285534 | SPARK PLUG - A spark plug includes an insulator having an axial hole, a first inner circumferential surface, a second inner circumferential surface whose diameter is greater than that of the first inner circumferential surface, and a ledge portion connecting the first and the second inner circumferential surfaces. The spark plug also includes a center electrode having a large-diameter portion, a projection portion, and a circular columnar leg portion that projects into a space surrounded by the first inner circumferential surface. The spark plug includes a seal portion which fixes the center electrode within the axial hole. When C | 10-31-2013 |
20130307402 | SPARK PLUG - A spark plug, comprised of: an insulator having an axial bore extending in the direction of an axis, a first inner circumferential surface extending at a forward side of the axial bore, a second inner circumferential surface extending at a rear side of the axial bore and having a diameter greater than that of the first inner circumferential surface, and a ledge connecting the first inner circumferential surface and the second inner circumferential surface; a center electrode having a head supported by the ledge and extending in a space surrounded by the second inner circumferential surface, and a circular columnar leg extending continuously from the forward end of the head in a space surrounded by the first inner circumferential surface; and a seal material for holding the center electrode in the axial bore. | 11-21-2013 |
