SEMICONDUCTOR PACKAGE, RESIN MOLDED PRODUCT, AND METHOD OF MOLDING RESIN MOLDED PRODUCT
A semiconductor package includes a flat plate-shaped terminal integrally formed with a housing portion for a semiconductor chip and a rod-shaped terminal pin that penetrates through a through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal. On a surface of the plate-shaped terminal, a resin guide portion for guiding the terminal pin to the through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal is provided. The resin guide portion is a portion of the housing portion and has a through-hole that is continuous with the through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal. During assembly of the semiconductor package, the terminal pin is inserted into the through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal, via the through-hole of the resin guide portion. A sidewall of the through-hole of the resin guide portion and a sidewall of the through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal have a same slope and form a single continuous surface; a border between the through-hole of the resin guide portion and the through-hole of the plate-shaped terminal is free of any step.
Polymer composite vacuum components

The cover housing (30) has a seal (41) integrally formed therein so as to encompass part of the sensing element (29) so that the sensing element communicates with a communicating passage (33) but does not communicate with the inner space (16). A discharge path (36) is formed on the communicating passage (33) so as to allow the inside of a tube communicating with the communicating passage (33) to be maintained at atmospheric pressure normally. An inflow orifice (34) is in the downstream side of the communicating passage (33) and a discharge orifice (37) is in the downstream side of the discharge path (36) so that the flow of the fluid is rapid.
