A method for transferring a thin plate is provided, in which three or more grasping claws of a transfer arm grasp the periphery of the thin plate in order to transfer it to a predetermined transfer position, and three or more holding claws hold the periphery of the thin plate in the transfer position. The transfer arm rotates about a shaft which is in a direction of a vector sum of a first vector perpendicular to a surface of the thin plate before transfer, and a second vector perpendicular to the surface of the thin plate after the transfer, to transfer the thin plate with changing the posture thereof.

A power element mounting substrate including a circuit layer brazed to a surface of a ceramic plate, and a power element soldered to a front surface of the circuit layer, wherein the circuit layer is constituted using an Al alloy with an average purity of more than or equal to 98.0 wt % and less than or equal to 99.9 wt %, Fe concentration of the circuit layer at a side of a surface to be brazed to the ceramic plate is less than 0.1 wt %, and Fe concentration of the circuit layer at a side of the surface opposite to the surface to be brazed is more than or equal to 0.1 wt %.

A printer includes a print head for printing on a print medium and a platen which supports the print medium, and is located opposite to the print head. The print head is linearly moved along the print medium. The platen includes first and second end portions and an intermediate portion, and is formed of material having stiffness. The first and second end portions are located at respective ends of the platen in the moving direction of the print head, and the intermediate portion is located between the first and second end portions. The first and second end portions are supported by respective spring members, such that they can be elastically displaced in a direction toward or away from the print head. The intermediate portion is formed to be more easily warped than the first and second end portions.

An image reading apparatus is provided. The image reading apparatus includes: a platen glass; a moving member; a reading section held by the moving member, the reading section having a reading surface, a light-receiving element, a substrate section, and a case section; a transmission member; and a first biasing section. The moving member includes a facing surface that faces the substrate section. The case section includes a first wall and a second wall. The transmission member includes a first contacting section, a second contacting section, and a connecting section. The first biasing section is disposed such that its one end makes a contact with the facing surface of the moving member and its other end makes a contact with the connecting section of the transmission member.

A waterproof connecting structure is used in coordination with a solar panel array in order to construct a vertical wall or a rooftop panel of a building. The waterproof connecting structure comprises two half components and a connecting component. The two half components are disposed between the two solar panels. The connecting component covers a joint between the two half components so that rainwater flowed into a conduit passage formed by each of the half components is guided out. Thereby, the rainwater is prevented from infiltrating into a building.

Provided is a viscoelasticity measuring apparatus in which an undesirable sample shape change such as a buckle caused as a result of thermal expansion of a sample is eliminated so as to prevent a deformation in a displacement detector direction due to the thermal expansion and a bending of the sample between a sample grasping member and a chuck, to thereby improve accuracy of measurement. In the viscoelasticity measuring apparatus, a thin part is provided in a part of an elastic arm for holding the sample so as to be easily deformed by a thermal expansion force of the sample. Thus, an undesirable shape change such as the buckle generated when the sample is expanded thermally is effectively eliminated, and necessary stiffness is maintained with respect to a load of the sample and hence accuracy of measurement is improved.

A display panel includes a first substrate, a second substrate which faces the first substrate, is smaller than the first substrate so that an edge of the first substrate is exposed in a plan view, a fixing member disposed on the exposed edge of the first substrate, and a bonding member disposed between the first substrate and the fixing member.

Tire comprising a crown surmounted by a tread, a crown reinforcement, two sidewalls and two beads, a carcass reinforcement passing into the two sidewalls and anchored by means for anchoring in the two beads, said anchoring means comprising, in at least one bead, a circumferential alignment of at least one anchoring reinforcing member oriented circumferentially and cooperating with a rubber composition referred to as ‘anchoring rubber’; this tire is characterized in that this anchoring reinforcing member is a metal cable having two layers of construction M+N comprising an inner layer C1 of M wires of diameter d1 wound together in a helix at a pitch p1, this layer C1 itself being surrounded by an outer layer C2 of N wires of diameter d2 wound together in a helix at a pitch p2, this anchoring cable furthermore having the following characteristics (d1, d2, p1 and p2 in mm):2≦M≦4M+3≦N≦M+70.25<d1<0.40;0.25<d2<0.40;3.5<p1<7<p2<14.The invention also relates to a metal / rubber composite comprising the above two-layered metal cable associated with a rubber matrix of high rigidity, having, in the vulcanized state, a secant tensile modulus at 10% elongation which is greater than 20 MPa.

This display screen turning apparatus (base for a display screen) includes a platelike base member so formed as to receive the load of a display body applied to a display screen support mechanism on a partial region and to warp in a direction opposite to the direction of deflection resulting from the load of the display body with a prescribed amount of warpage when not receiving the load of the display body, and the prescribed amount of warpage is so set that the surface of the base member is substantially flattened when the base member receives the load of the display body applied to the display screen support mechanism.
