Abstract: An upper shearing blade 3 equipped with a
protrusion 30 of a triangle-columnar shape and a lower
shearing blade 4 equipped with a protrusion 40 of the
same shape are applied onto the overlapped portion of
metal plates 1 and 2 to be bonded, and then pressed
into the metal plates 1 and 2 in an oblique direction
inclined with respect to the thickness direction by a
stroke in such a range that the metal plates 1 and 2
are not completely cut off. The operating loci of the
upper shearing blade 3 and the lower shearing blade 4
are overlapped each other so that one falls inside the
other, and the sheared surfaces of the metal plates 1
and 2 are formed into a bonded portion by plastic flow
deformation. Therein, since a compressive force is
applied onto the portions to be bonded, the portion
being defined by the amount of overlap, and the
portions are compressed to form a compressed portion
after completion of bonding, the bonding strength
enhances. Besides, since the protrusions 30 and 40 on
the shearing blades generate a pressing force pressing
the sheared surfaces onto each other, by an effect of
their inclined surfaces, a compression force applied
onto the bonded portion further increases.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for
simplifying the design effort of creating and
debugging a JTAPI (JAVA™ Telephony application
programming interface) implementation and the
resulting apparatus. The JTAPI is constructed in a
multilayer fashion. In one embodiment, a generic
portion or layer comprises a large percentage of the
required source code and includes a standardized API
to an adapter layer which typically comprises a
minority portion of total required code for the
interface. The generic layer, provides services and
mechanisms needed by all JTAPI compliant applications.
Its job is to maintain the call model visible to
applications through the JTAPI interface, and to
dispatch application events upon state changes. The
generic layer passes call control requests to the
lower level adapter layer, which is responsible for
executing the low-level call control requests and
reporting back to the generic layer the changes in the
state of the telephony hardware. Many of the classes
of objects in the generic layer can be created in
subclasses of the adapter layer.
