Abstract: A method and apparatus for continuously spot-welding galvanized steel sheets overlapped to be bonded by way of a spot welding machine (13) having a pair of electrodes (32). The galvanized steel sheets (31) clamp a resistance increasing material (30) including a spacer to ensure a gap between the sheets. Bonding surfaces of the galvanized steel sheets partly contact each other when the pair of electrodes pressurize the galvanized steel sheets such that a part of the gap is retained around the spacer between the bonding surfaces. The retained gap has a size in which zinc melted or vapored when a weld current flows between the electrodes can escape through a weld section of the galvanized steel sheets to outside. The method comprises the step of recording an inter electrode resistance for each spot when the continuous spot welding is executed by the pair of electrodes. The method estimates an electrode lifetime defined by one of the number of spots and a duration of the spot welding until a sufficient nugget will not be formed by way of the electrodes according to the record of the inter electrode resistance. The method automatically changes weld conditions to enable the continuous spot welding when the electrode lifetime reaches a predetermined electrode lifetime.

Abstract: To go from a coupled high level to the decoupled low level, the source unit (SU) of the transmitter (T) must be decoupled from the transmission line (TL) by the impedance unit (IU). As a result, oscillatory transition phenomena appear in the output signal and this signal possibly goes beyond a prescribed template. 
     To avoid such overshoot problems the present transmitter (T) decreases the signal level during a decrease period before decoupling the source unit (SU) from the transmission line (TL). 
     Therefore a source control circuit (SCC) is included in the control unit (CU) of the transmitter (T). This source control circuit (SCC) enables controlling the source level in such a way that the output signal level is decreasing.

Abstract: A latch portion 66 of a latch lever 60 is driven by a leaf spring 68 and engages a recessed portion 50, which is formed in an upright wall 48 of a battery 20, and holds the battery 20 in the use position in a battery storage section 24. To disengage the latch portion 66 from the recessed portion 50, the latch lever 60 is rotated by manipulating a knob 84. When the battery 20 is then pulled and shifted toward an insertion port 22, a plunger 90 engages the recessed portion 50 and prevents the battery 20 from falling out of the battery storage section 24. Therefore, even if a battery 20 is being removed while a data processing apparatus is in an inclined position, the battery 20 does not slide out of the battery storage section 24.

Abstract: A smoothing iron has a sole plate (3) forming its supporting surface, a rear section (5) forming a heel, and a centre of gravity (G) which ensures a stable position while the iron rests on its sole plate. The heel has a series of curved surfaces (5a, 5b, 5c) which mean that the iron cannot be stood on its heel when not in use. The curves are alternately convex and concave. The iron's sole plate has a low level of thermal inertia and is, for example, less than 1 mm, and is connected to the body by a permeable stiffening structure of a thermal insulation material. This means that the sole plate cools down rapidly when switched off, e.g. by a detector which senses when the iron has stopped moving, cutting out the power supply after 3 seconds. <IMAGE>

Title: Gripper weaving machine
Inventor: SPEICH FRANCISCO
IPC: D03D47/27
Filed: 1995-07-20
Abstract: In the gripper weaving machine proposed, a weft band (18a) passes along a first row of guide pins (22a) and a second row of guide pins (26a) each with guide slots (24a, 28a) designed to hold the band. The guide pins hold the weft band (18a) at a distance from the warp threads (2) in the shed (8). The lower surfaces (38) of each of the guide slots (24a) in the guide pins (22a) nearest a weaving reed (12) are parallel to the plane (36) of the weft band (18a). The upper surfaces (40) of these guide slots are inclined at an angle ( alpha ) to the plane of the weft band (18a) and the slot faces towards the band. The cross-section of the edge (44) of the weft band which extends into the guide slot (24a) matches that of the slot. This design ensures that, when the warp threads (2) in the lower shed cross, the guide slot (24a) cannot become caught on them. In addition, a raised section (48) on the underside of the weft band (18a) between the edges of the band ensures that warp threads are drawn in and held.
