A semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor element that includes an electrode layer on a surface of the semiconductor element; a low-strength layer that is provided on a surface of the electrode layer; a bonding layer that is provided on a surface of the low-strength layer; and a conductive plate that is provided on a surface of the bonding layer. Strength of the bonding layer is higher than strength of the electrode layer, and strength of the low-strength layer is lower than the strength of the electrode layer.

Semiconductor device

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element, a capacitor, a first resin, lead frames and a second resin. The first resin forms a resin molding which covers the semiconductor element and the capacitor. The lead frames are attached to two surfaces of the resin molding and are connected to the semiconductor element and the capacitor. The second resin directly covers the capacitor and has a rigidity lower than a rigidity of the first resin. An outside of the second resin is directly covered with the first resin.

An attaching structure attaches a part to a band, and includes a clip for attaching the part to the band. The clip includes a clip main member, which has a lower portion and an upper portion with a gap corresponding to a cross section of a portion of the band where the clip is attached for sandwiching the portion of the band where the clip is attached, and a part engaging portion formed below the clip main member for engaging the part.

A method for coating an article made of polypropylene with an electrically conductive primer and thereafter electrostatically applying an organic solvent-type overcoat composition to the primer. The electrically conductive primer contains (A) a urethane-modified chlorinated polypropylene which is a mixture or addition reaction product of a chlorinated polypropylene and a polyurethane resin, the chlorinated polypropylene being prepared by chlorinating a homopolymer of propylene or a copolymer of propylene and another olefin monomer, (B) a melamine resin, (C) a polyester resin and (D) an electrically conductive substance such as carbon black, graphite, silver, nickel or copper. The electrically conductive primer has a surface resistivity of up to 1.times.10.sup.8 ohms after the application of the overcoat composition.

A steering locking apparatus for a vehicle is designed in such a way that the rotation of a key rotor located at an unlocking position to a locked position by the rotation of a key is prevented by a restricting lever and the prevention of the rotation of the key rotor is removed by pressing a pressing button so as to allow the key rotor to be rotated to the locked position. In a state wherein the pressing of the pressing button is prevented by operating an electromagnetic solenoid under predetermined conditions and thereby engaging a plunger supported by a plunger of the electromagnetic solenoid with the pressing button, the load applied to the pressing button is received by a car body through the stopper plate. In consequence, no load is exerted on the plunger.

Steering locking apparatus

An elastic bushing assembly including a rigid sleeve member disposed radially inwardly of an outer sleeve, the sleeve member having a radial flange extending radially outwardly from one axial end thereof, an elastic member interposed between the outer sleeve and the sleeve member, an inner sleeve disposed radially inwardly of the sleeve member, a sliding member interposed between the inner sleeve and the sleeve member and slidable relative to one of the inner sleeve and the sleeve member. A retainer member is located at one axial end of the inner sleeve corresponding to the radial flange of the sleeve member, and a sealing rubber member is in pressed abutting contact with the radial flange of the sleeve member and the retainer member, so as to provide sealing therebetween. The rubber member includes two radially spaced-apart annular sealing lips whose diameters increase in an axially outward direction of the sleeve member away from the radial flange. The outer sealing lip has a tapered distal end face whose diameter decreases in the axially outward direction.

Elastic bushing assembly

A bush assemblage having an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve disposed around the inner sleeve in co-axial and radially-spaced relation thereto, a rigid sleeve member disposed between the inner and outer sleeves, a cylindrical resilient member interposed between the outer sleeve and the rigid sleeve member, and a cylindrical sliding member interposed between the inner sleeve and the rigid sleeve member, a retainer member located at at least one of axial ends of the inner sleeve to extend radially outwardly, and a sealing device for sealing at least between the inner sleeve and the rigid sleeve member. The sealing device includes a rubber member which is disposed on the retainer member and an axial end of the rigid sleeve member corresponding to the at least one axial end of the inner sleeve, and which abuts against the other.

Bush assemblage

In a suspension system for an automotive vehicle which comprises a longitudinal shaft fixedly mounted on the vehicle body structure along the fore-and-aft axis, a control arm of the so-called 'A' type swingably supported at one end thereof from the shaft by means of a pair of front and rear rubber bushes, and a pair of retainer plates fixed to front and rear ends of the shaft and arranged to receive a load acting on the control arm in the forward or rearward direction through a portion of the respective rubber bushes for restricting forward or rearward displacement of the control arm, a stopper member is secured to the rear portion of the control arm and straddling the rear end of the shaft with a predetermined clearance, the stopper member being brought into engagement with the rear end of the shaft when the load acting on the control arm is larger than a predetermined value.
