Patent EP-0739994-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUKUMOTO SHIHO
IPC: F16C33/62
Filed: 1995-11-23
Abstract: There is disclosed a bearing member which is enhanced in toughness without lowering the hardness of a core portion so as to prevent an instantaneous rupture of the bearing member, and is excellent in rolling fatigue service life characteristics. Martensitic Fe-based bearing steel of the invention contains, by weight, not more than 0.4% carbon, not more than 2% silicon, not more than 2% manganese, not more than 5% nickel, 3.5 to 7.0% chromium, at least one of tungsten and molybdenum an tungsten equivalent defined by ([W] + 2[Mo]) of which at least one is 3 to 15%, and not less than 0.5% but less than 1.1% vanadium. A ratio of Cv/Ceq is not more than 0.3 where Cv represents a carbon equivalent of vanadium defined by 0.2[V], and Ceq represents a carbon equivalent of carbide-forming elements defined by (0.063[Cr] + 0.06[Mo] + 0.033[W] + 0.2[V]). With this construction, the precipitation of MC carbides is suppressed, and M 2 C-type carbides larger in morphology than MC-type carbides are dispersed in an appropriate amount, thereby enhancing a rupture toughness value.

Abstract: The fixture has a one-piece elongated plastic profile strip with a fixture part (7) extending over its length. The fixture part is for the introduction of clamps (15) in the frame (2) of the furniture. An accommodation part, facing the inner edge of the frame is provided for the corrugated springs (3) with spaced suspension loops (4) in the strip longitudinal direction, for the spring ends (5). The suspension loops are formed by a short casing extending from the fixture part of the plastic profile strip (6) to the frame interior, the inner wall of which has a rounded area for pivotable support of the spring end. The casing has a hollow profile which is closed on the peripheral side and open at its two face ends.

Abstract: Spring assemblies (52) are employed in adjoining ferrules (50) of a spacer (24) in a nuclear fuel bundle to bias the fuel rods against stops and hence position the fuel rods in the spacer. The spring assemblies (52) in one form include back-to-back spring bodies (56a,56b) having central leaves (58) with forward projections (64) extending through rectilinear openings (82) in adjacent ferrules to engage fuel rods to bias the rods against stops at the opposite sides of the ferrules. Outer pairs of leaves (60) straddle the central leaf (58) and project rearwardly and join the spring bodies (56a,56b) one with the other whereby the central leaves (58), end portions (62) of the springs connected to the central and outer leaves, and the outer leaves (56a,56b) act as paired springs in series, providing a low spring constant. In another form, a single spring body (88) has a central leaf (90) with a projection (96) extending through an aperture (102) of a ferrule (100) to bias the fuel rod. The outer leaves (94) bear against the outer surface of the adjoining ferrule. In this latter form, pins (106) may be used to compress the springs to facilitate insertion of the fuel rods into the ferrules.

Abstract: A gasket (G) for a cylinder head has a plurality of combustion chamber holes (10) and is a superposed assembly of a first elastic metal layer (3) having a bead (2) around each hole (10), a second elastic metal layer (6) having a bead (5) around each hole (10), and third layer (8). Around each hole (10), the third layer (8) is folded back around the edge of the second layer (6) to provide an annular strip which is positioned between the first and second layers (3, 6). The annular strip helps prevent the beads (2, 5) from being crushed in use and thus improves the sealing ability of the gasket. Because the gasket may be manufactured using three layers instead of four layers, the process is simplified and made cheaper. 
     Between adjacent holes (10), the beads (2) of the first layer (3) are separated by a depression which projects into a depression which separates the beads (5) of the second layer (6) [see Fig. 3]. 
     The annular strip of the third layer (8) may have a locally-increased width (b1) adjacent to the gap between adjacent holes (10) [see Fig. 6].

Abstract: The rolls (2) of a hot rolling mill are supported in bearings (6) which are cooled by water jets. The water jets are applied to each end of the roll in a region shielded by a fixed cowl (20). Between the water jets and the roll main body, in each instance there is a collar (36) integral with the roll, and the side (38) of the collar facing the main body tapers radially inwardly towards the main body. The cowl preferably terminates at a spacing from the main body, intermediate the axial extent of said tapering side of the collar. By these means, it is possible to hinder or prevent cooling water escaping from the ends of the roll to reach the main body of the roll.

Abstract: Two external terminals (Vcc, G) are connected to the positive supply and ground. Control voltages (V1, V3) switch first and second vertical MOS transistors (S1, S3). A third control voltage (V4) switches a lateral MOS transistor (S4) whose source and drain are connected to ground and to the vertical bipolar transistor base (T). An alternative directly replaces the vertical MOS transistors with npn bipolar transistors. The integrated circuit forming these components has an n-type material substrate whose rear part is highly doped and covered by a metallisation. There are cells for each vertical MOS transistor, a region for the bipolar transistor and enclosed blocks in the substrate for the zener diode and lateral MOS transistor. Metallisations interconnect the components.

Abstract: An impression tray (10) for making impressions of the upper and lower teeth. The tray includes a mouthpiece (13) and a handle (12). The mouthpiece (13) includes an outer wall (14), inner wall (16) and a base (18) connected between the walls (14, 16) at a bottom thereof. The walls (14, 16) each have vertical slits (54, 68) spaced along their length. Each slit (54, 68) has a shoulder (60, 73) therein providing an interlock for the impression material displaced therethrough. The base (18) includes ribs (88) on its top, each rib (88) extending between the walls (14, 16) and alternating with the slits (54, 68) on the walls. Between each adjacent pair of ribs (88) are two holes (90) extending through the base (18). The base (18) is also attached, on its bottom, to a platform structure. The platform structure provides a flat surface for the tray and forms reservoirs (102) around the base holes (90). The combination of the ribs (88) and the platform structure provides a rigid structure, thereby producing an impression with a minimal possibility of deformation.

Abstract: A wire electric discharge machining method capable of improving a machining accuracy of a corner portion. A machining feed speed is gradually reduced from a point A before entering a corner portion machining between points C and D, and in the corner portion between points C and D the machining is performed at a fixed feed speed. The feed speed is gradually increased from the point D, where the machining of the corner portion is completed, and is restored to the original speed. In accordance with the change of the feed speed, an off-state time of the voltage applied between a wire and a workpiece is increased from a point B and is reduced from a point E after completing the corner portion machining, to restore the original off-state time at a point F. Further, a flow rate of machining fluid is reduced depending on the corner portion. The feed speed, the off-state time and the flow rate of the machining fluid are controlled by automatically changing them in dependence on a curvature of the corner portion. A warp of the wire electrode is substantially prevented at the beginning of and during the corner portion machining, to thereby improve the machining accuracy of the corner portion.
