Inventor: KINOSE RYOHEI
IPC: B23K5/02
Filed: 1992-03-12
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for joining conveyed steel pieces in a hot rolling mill are disclosed. A joining apparatus having a series of fusing torches (6) extending laterally across the steel path is used, either before a rough rolling stage or between rough rolling and finish rolling. The fusing torches (6) which operate at the side edges of the pieces to be joined are controlled to have independent movement by a controller (37), in such a way that the time elapsing between fusing and pressing together of portions at the lateral edges of the join line does not exceed a critical time for regrowth of oxide scale. Various mounting and control techniques for the fusing torches (6) are proposed, including the possibility of two independently-driveable sets (8,8a) the controller can base its control of the torches (6) on steel strip width information obtained from the processing path.

Abstract: Apparatus for making a pipe-fitting, of the kind used to sealably connect the ends of plastic pipes, such as gas pipes, comprises head portion 14 and a support arm 15 the head portion 14 having a cutter 16 arranged to cut a helical groove in an inside bore-surface of a plastic pipe-fitting (not shown). As the cutter 16 cuts the groove copper wire (not shown) is supplied through the cutter 16 via guide pulleys 17 and 18, which wire is laid in the freshly cut groove. The wire is then enclosed in the groove by urging displaced surface material from one side of the groove to the opposite side of the groove at least partially by the action of a friction surface 19 on the displaced material.

Abstract: A coated superalloy component includes a substrate article formed of a superalloy and an adherent coating over the substrate. The coating is a nickel-base superalloy containing at least about 0.1 volume percent or more of a dispersed oxide of yttrium, hafnium and/or a rare earth, and, preferably, grain boundary strengthening elements such as carbon, zirconium, and boron. The oxide dispersoids improve the performance of the coating in service, reducing the incidence failures due to thermal fatigue, oxidation, and corrosion damage. The dispersoid-containing coating may be formed by directly depositing the oxide-containing coating, or by depositing a metallic coating and then forming the dispersoids by subsequent heat treatment.

Abstract: A method for the electroslag refining of metal is provided. The method involves providing a refining vessel to contain an electroslag refining layer floating on a layer of molten refined metal. An ingot of unrefined metal is lowered into the vessel into contact with the molten electroslag layer. A refining current is passed through the slag layer to the ingot to cause surface melting at the interface between the ingot and the electroslag layer. As the ingot is surface melted at its point of contact with the slag, droplets of the unrefined metal are formed and these droplets pass down through the slag and are collected in a body of molten refined metal beneath the slag. The refined metal is held within a cold hearth. At the bottom of the cold hearth, a cold finger orifice is provided to permit the withdrawal of refined metal from the cold hearth apparatus. The refined metal passes from the cold finger orifice as a stream and is processed into a sound metal structure having desired grain structure. A preferred method for forming such a structure is by spray forming.

Abstract: Process and device for regenerating a catalyst containing coke in a fluid bed. …<??>The catalyst and part of the regeneration fumes are abstracted from the dense bed of a regenerator (1) and introduced by gravity into an external exchanger at a point of connection below the level of the dense bed of the regenerator. The heat exchange is carried out in the lower part of the exchanger (7) below the point of connection.

Abstract: A tie-down device (10) for securing and holding down cargo and the like. The device (10) includes a turnbuckle (11). A strap (13) is provided having a first end (13a) and a second end (13b) that are secured to the turnbuckle (11), so as to loop back on itself and defining a loose strap (15) and a stationary strap (14). A first hook (16) is carried by the turnbuckle (11). A second hook (17) is carried by the strap (13) between the loose (15) and stationary (14) straps. Rotation of the turnbuckle (11) in a first tightening direction wraps the loose strap (15) for tightening the device (10) and securing and holding down the cargo and the like and also locking the loose strap (15) in place. Rotation of the turnbuckle (11) in a second loosening direction unwraps the loose strap (15) from around the stationary strap (14),lengthening the loose strap (15) for untightening the device (10) and unsecuring and releasing the cargo and the like. Safety features include providing the loose strap (15) with a greater strength than the stationary strap (14), so that in the event of the breakage of the strap (13), the stationary strap (14) will always be the strap to break and the loose strap (15) wrapped around the stationary strap (14) will restrain the stationary strap (14).

Abstract: In a ceramic coating method for coating a ceramic on a metallic substrate, a ceramic material is coated on a surface of a metallic substrate by continuously changing composition of mixture of the ceramic material and the metallic substrate to form a ceramic coating film on a surface of the metallic substrate, and a heat treatment is then effected to the ceramic coated metallic substrate so as to induce a residual stress due to compression on a surface of the ceramic coating film, thereby improving durability of the ceramic coating film. The ceramic material is a ceramic oxide having a coefficient of linear expansion smaller than that of the metallic substrate to induce the residual stress at the heat treatment. The metallic substrate is formed of a heat resistant alloy of element substantially selected from a group consisting of Fe, Co or Ni. A high temperature resistant oxidizing material film is further coated to improve the high temperature resistant oxidization characteristic of the coating material. The high temperature resistant material is formed of a stable alloying material forming a stable passive film.
