Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An inspection device 20 for inspecting a workpiece 100 having a stepped portion 115, comprises: a pair of electrode plates 220, 230 for nipping the workpiece 100 therebetween and applying voltage to the workpiece 100, the pair of electrode plates 220, 230 including a first electrode plate 220 to be disposed on the stepped portion side 115 and a second electrode plate 230 to be disposed on the opposite side from the stepped portion 115 of the workpiece 100; and a heat transferring member 240 to be disposed so as not to create a gap between the stepped portion 115 and the first electrode plate 220.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An inspection device for inspecting a workpiece having a stepped portion, comprising: a pair of electrode plates for nipping the workpiece therebetween and applying voltage to the workpiece, the pair of electrode plates including a first electrode plate to be disposed on the stepped portion side and a second electrode plate to be disposed on an opposite side from the stepped portion of the workpiece: and a heat transferring member to be disposed so as not to create a gap between the stepped portion and the first electrode plate. 2 . The inspection device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the heat transferring member is a sheet made of fluororesin. 3 . The inspection device in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first electrode plate has a shape in which the first electrode plate is formed integrally with the heat transferring member and is fittable with the stepped portion, and the first electrode plate contacts the stepped portion.
