Abstract: A continuous melt-plating apparatus has a guide roller (6) provided above the sink roller (4). The guide roller (6) is capable of curving into a configuration arbitrarily varied in the widthwise direction of the strip (1), in such a manner that the waving and curving of the steel strip (1), which is very variable depending on the thickness, the width and the material of the steel strip (1), again changes of the sink roller (4), the plating speed, and the thickness of the plating, can be coped with precisely in accordance therewith. By virtue of this arrangement, it is possible to achieve the flat­ness of the steel strip (1) with a high degree of precision in the portion corresponding to the gas wiping nozzle (8, 8′).

Abstract: A new compositional relationship in the starting charge of a crystal growth station (Fig. 1) provides homogeneous monocrystalline lithium niobate. A new measurement system (Fig. 2) provides Curie point values of significantly greater accuracy then that of conventional measurements. Careful control of the starting charge. composition for crystal growth and effective utilization of the measurement system enable the determination of the compositional range of starting charges for producing congruent crystalline production. The composition corresponds to a mol percentage of 48.35±.01 to 48.40±.01 of Li₂O and the remainder Nb₂O₅ for producing homogeneous crystal whose solidification fraction of the molten charge exceeds that which was heretofore achievable.

Abstract: An electro-optical connector having a plug containing a center light emitter or detector and an interconnected pair of light detectors or emitters symmetrically positioned with respect to the center light emitter or detector. A socket, also containing a center light detector or emitter and an interconnected pair of symmetrically positioned outer light emitters or detectors, is adapted to receive the plug. The plug may thus be inserted into the socket with a plurality of angular orientations. The plug is retained in the socket by a pair of resilient tabs extending into respective recesses in the socket. The tabs may be removed from the recesses by exerting an outward force on the tabs, either directly or by exerting a transverse force on the plug thereby generating a rotational moment on the plug that exerts an outwardly directed force on the tab. As a result, the plug may be removed from the socket by exerting side forces on the plug without damaging the plug or socket.
