Abstract: A vertical lift double decked vehicle parking apparatus comprises a ground engaging
support (2) with a vehicle elevator platform (3) movable on the support (2) between a
lowered ground-engaging position and a raised position. The lowered position is such
that a car (5) can be driven onto the elevator platform (3) from either end and parked
on the elevator platform (3). Drive means is then operable to raise the elevator
platform (3) on the support (2) to the raised position. With the vehicle elevator platform
(3) in the raised position, a second car (5) can be parked beneath the vehicle elevator
platform (3). The ground engaging support (2) simply comprises a pair of spaced-apart
pillars (8, 9), a cross beam (16) carries the platform (3) between the pillars (8, 9).
Each of the pillars (8, 9) is of channel section and carriages at each end of the cross
beam (16) run vertically with the pillars (8, 9) for raising and lowering the platform (3).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for X-ray fluorescence analysis wherein X-radiation of an X-ray source is directed upon a sample arranged on a sample carrier, and the fluorescence radiation is measured by a detector. On that occasion, the detection sensitivity, in particular, with respect to the total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) is to be increased for the most different samples. In order to solve this problem the sample to be analysed is placed on a multi-layer system, or a fluidic sample flows over such a multi-layer system. The multi-layer system consists of at least two or several individual layers which are arranged in a periodically repeating manner. Adjacent individual layers consist of materials having a different x-ray optical refractive index wherein the period thickness d in the multi-layer system and the angle of incidence theta of the X-radiation meet the BRAGG relationship at the used wavelength lambd of X-radiation.

Abstract: A high-speed automatic parts mounting apparatus is
provided which is designed to move pick-up nozzles vertically to
mount electronic parts on a printed circuit board in sequence. The
parts mounting apparatus reads data on height of each of the
electronic parts out of a memory to determine a target level of the
printed circuit when the electronic parts are mounted on the printed
circuit board and moves an X-Y table on which the printed circuit
board is held vertically to the target level. Specifically, the level of
the printed circuit board is adjusted based on the height of the
electronic parts without changing a vertical stroke of the vacuum
nozzles. This minimizes the vibration of the vacuum nozzles, thus
avoiding a shift in orientation or mounted position of the electronic
parts.

Abstract: A testing unit is provided for mounting on a connector testing
device for testing a connector (C) which includes a plurality of metal
terminals (T) fastened to the connector by a lance system (C2). A probe
pin (22) for testing conductivity is held by a molded resin slider (21)
having a pair of electrodes (22). The slider is integrally formed with a
probe pin which holds a protrusion for testing, whether the fastening of
the lance is complete. Positioning a lance testing member of protrusion
relative to the lance can be achieved without providing a rotation-free
stopper of the probe pin. In addition, individual failure testing can be
achieved compared with the case which holds all of the probe pins.
Furthermore, damage to the lance resulting from the material selection
can also be avoided. Furthermore, a better connection between a probe
pin and a lead wire (25) is also provided when displacing probe pin of a
connector testing device relative to the position of a lead wire. This is
accomplished by providing a conductive member fixed to a block and
connecting a lead wire with the fixed conductive member. Furthermore,
the fixed conductive member and a probe pin are relatively and
displaceably connected in an electrically conductive manner. The probe
pin is retained in a relatively displaceable manner to the block by a slider.
Thus, even when the probe pin is displaced relative to the block area
during testing, a connecting position of the lead wire is not subjected to
displacement from the predetermined position.

Abstract: A heat sealing/severing device for heat sealing thermoplastic films together. The
device includes front and rear opposing jaws that are moveable between an open position and a
closed position. The open position defines a zone for inserting the thermoplastic films between
the front and rear jaws. In the closed position, the front and rear jaws are proximate each other
to compress the thermoplastic films together. The rear jaw includes a resilient portion facing the
front jaw. The heating element of the device may have a cross-sectional thickness no less than
0.55 times the cross-sectional thickness of the resilient portion. A front jaw release sheet (e.g.,
an unreinforced fluoroplastic) may be positioned between the insertion zone and the heating
element. The front jaw release sheet may engage the heating element when the front and rear
jaws are in the closed position and disengage from the heating element when the front and rear
jaws are in the open position. The present heat sealer can form consistent heat seals with fewer
leaks and is especially useful in sealing and severing relatively thin thermoplastic films.
