Abstract: The present invention discloses a planishing method for joined sheets made of a thermoplastic material. Welded ends (38) of the plastic sheets (28,30) are placed between two platens (22,24). The platens are heated to raise the temperature of the plastic material a sufficient amount to soften the plastic material without disturbing its molecular structure. The platens are pressed together with a sufficient pressure while applying heat until the sheets are pressed together providing a relatively smooth, continuous joint having a thickness similar to the thickness of a single sheet. Finally, the platens are cooled thereby cooling the joined sheets.

The slab has a composition which essentially consists of and which satisfies the conditions of: C≦0.004%, Si≦0.02%, Mn=0.5% - 3%, P≦0.02%, Al=0.02% - 0.05%, 0.008%≦N≦0.024%, and the rest being Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein the conditions have the relationship of:Al%/N%>2. Then, the resultant strip is cooled at a cooling rate of 10°C/s or higher so as to reach a temperature of 650°C or lower. The resultant strip is further coiled at a temperature in a range of from 550°C to 400°C. Cold-rolling is performed on the resultant strip at a reduction ratio of 82% or higher preceded by removing a scale to obtain cold rolled steel strip. Subsequently, continuous annealing is performed on the resultant cold rolled steel strip at a recrystallization temperature or higher, being followed by temper-rolling.

Abstract: A misfire detection method is provided, which method makes it possible to accurately detect the occurrence/absence of misfire by eliminating a detection error in misfire detection, which error is caused by a vibrational increase or decrease of the rotational changing rate of a crankshaft after a misfire state occurs, and which method does not require any special hardware for that purpose. A processor, which receives pulse outputs from a crank angle sensor, calculates in sequence angular accelerations Dω n-2 , Dω n-1 , Dω n , and Dω n+1  in crank angle areas which correspond to a preceding cylinder. two cylinders checked for misfire, and a succeeding cylinder, respectively. If the values Dω n-1  and Dω n  significantly decrease in comparison with the values Dω n-2  and Dω n-1 , respectively, then it is tentatively determined that misfire has occurred in both cylinders checked. Then if the value Dω n+1  significantly increases in comparison with the value Dω n , then the restoration to the normal combustion state is confirmed, and the occurrence of misfire in the two cylinders checked is definitely determined.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for molding a lining in a pipe, a hot-meltable fluorine resin material is sealed in the pipe. The fluorine resin material is uniformly diffused on an entire inner circumferential face of the pipe by rotating the pipe. The fluorine resin material is urged against the inner circumferential face of the pipe by increasing the rotation speed of the pipe up to a predetermined rotation speed. The fluorine resin material urged against the inner circumferential face of the pipe is melted by heating the pipe to a predetermined temperature equal to or higher than the melting temperature of the fluorine resin material and less than the foaming temperature of the fluorine resin material. After the fluorine resin material is entirely melted, the fluorine resin material is cooled while rotating the pipe, thereby forming the lining having a predetermined thickness on the inner circumferential face of the pipe.

Abstract: A transmission shift rail with a control rail (12) and shift fork (30). A pin (26) extends into a translation slot (36) in the shift fork (30) to produce axial movement of the shift fork (30) when the control rail (12) rotates, without translating the shift fork (30) when the control rail (12) translates. 
     A cylindrical member, or rotation cam (20), extends coaxially with the control rail (12). The rotation cam (20) has a radical slot (22), a axial slot (24), and a pin (26) extending radially therefrom. As the control rail (12) moves axially, the pin (16) moves within the first axial slot (24) and thereby does not move the rotation cam (20) axially. However, when the control rail (12) is rotated, the pin (16) engages the axial slot (24) and causes the rotation cam (20) to rotate therewith.
