Abstract: A cold-formed, raised-center axle (10) for a heavy-duty vehicle includes a central tube (12) having a pair of ends, (14) a pair of spindles (18) attached to the central tube ends, (14) and a wall thickness of from about 0.500 to about 0.625 inches. A hump is formed in the center portion of the tube (12) and includes compressive residual stresses in its bottom portion when the axle is in an in-service position. A method for forming the raised-center axle (10) includes the steps of providing a substantially straight axle, (10) inserting the axle into a press, over-forming a hump in the axle in the direction such that camber is induced in the axle, and forming the axle in a second direction, thereby substantially removing the camber and replacing a detrimental residual stress state in the humped portion of the axle (10) with a beneficial residual stress state.

Abstract: A method for disinfecting or sterilizing an article comprising enclosing the article or article part inside a container having a wall of which at least a part is a semipermeable fabric or membrane and introducing an amount of vaporizable biocide, preferably hydrogen peroxide in water, to the interior of said container in solution, vapour, liquid or preferably nebulant form. The semipermeable fabric or membrane is selected to allow the biocide to pass from inside to outside of the container as a vapour at atmospheric pressure and to provide a barrier against entry of micro-organisms. The biocide is allowed to exit the container through said membrane while at or above atmospheric pressure, a fluid eg air is directed to flow adjacent the outside of the membrane to expedite vapour removal from the interior side. The article is exposed to the biocide for a time sufficient to disinfect or sterilize the article.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and apparatus for fixing precisely with adhesive, on a preparation and support plate or base (1), workpieces (P) to be machined by machine tools and for subsequent simplified separation of the said workpieces. The surface for resting and supporting the workpiece (P) is formed by the flat head (103) of a plurality of small supports (3) which are positioned with their axes (A) parallel in relation to that of the said base (1), on which the said workpiece must be placed and which is designed to be gripped by the chuck of the machine tool. The said supports (3) are mounted on the support base (1) with the possibility of being operated so as to rotate about their axes. A suitable amount of adhesive is arranged on the flat head (103) of the said supports (3) and the workpiece is then placed and correctly centred on this glued surface, said workpiece, with solidification of the adhesive, being firmly fixed to the supports and to the support base and being able to be placed together with latter on the machine tool for machining of its visible surfaces. Once machining has been completed, the workpiece (P) may be separated from the supports (3) by imparting to the latter a small rotation about their axes (A) so as to break the thin layer of the adhesive surface, without the workpiece itself being subject to damaging stresses.
