Abstract: In an apparatus for shearing multi-walled workpieces, such as metal framing studs, a
base support (16) defines a blade gap (18) therebetween, and a guillotine-like blade
(30) is slidably received within the gap for shearing the workpieces. A pair of first
supports (20) are each slidably mounted on a respective base support (16, 18). A pair
of second supports (22) are also each slidably mounted on the base support, and are
spaced apart from and face the first supports to thereby define an adjustable-width
channel (28) therebetween. Each of the supports defines a blade-like edge for
engaging an elongated, multi-walled workpiece and the first and second support
surfaces are each moved into contact with a respective wall of the workpiece. The
supports can be oriented relative to one another such that the axis of the channel, and
a longitudinal axis of the workpiece received within the channel can be oriented at a
desired angle relative to the blade. The guillotine-like blade is then driven downwardly
into engagement with the workpiece to shear the workpiece along a line of contact.

Abstract: Heat treatment of a cold-rolled steel strip involves annealing at a temperature located in the austenitic phase of the steel, cooling to a temperature located in the inter-critical region between the eutectoid and austenitic temperatures, stabilization at the final temperature of cooling, and tempering to ambient temperature. Heat treatment of a cold-rolled steel strip involves heating to an annealing temperature above the A3 temperature, stabilization at the annealing temperature, and tempering at a temperature below the critical temperature of martensitic transformation (Ms). The annealing temperature is above that of austenitic transformation (A3).  Between the stabilization and tempering stages, the steel strip is cooled to an intermediate temperature between the A1 and A3 transformation points, and is stabilized at the intermediate temperature. Independent claims are given for: (a) a process for the production of a formable steel strip; and (b) a formable steel strip obtained by the invented processes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un gant élastomère contenant des zones de vitesse différentes de transmission de vapeur d'eau. Le gant contient au moins une zone imperméable aux liquides et à la vapeur, notamment une zone « imperméable à l'humidité ». De telles zones imperméables à l'humidité présentent généralement une vitesse de transmission de vapeur d'eau inférieure à environ 1 500 g/m2/24 heures. De plus, le gant contient également au moins une zone imperméable aux liquides, mais perméable à la vapeur, à savoir une zone « respirable ». De telles zones respirables font preuve normalement d'une vitesse de transmission de vapeur d'eau d'au moins environ 250 g/m2/24 heures. De ce fait, le gant peut empêcher suffisamment que les liquides et l'humidité n'entrent en contact avec la main pendant leur utilisation et permet à la vapeur d'eau, qui s'accumuleraient autrement sur la peau d'un utilisateur, de s'échapper du gant, améliorant ainsi le confort des mains de l'utilisateur pendant des longues périodes d'utilisation.
