Abstract: An energy controller is described for a vibration welder wherein the energy imparted into work-pieces being vibration welded is derived and compared with an energy set point to control the vibration welding operation. After a vibration welding operation has encountered the energy set point the welding operation is stopped and the quality of a weld derived from a comparison with another parameter associated with the vibration welding. The other parameter can be the amount of movement of one of the work-pieces during vibration welding or the time involved to inject the energy into the work-pieces to achieve the vibration weld.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for recording coded digital audio-visual data. On recording coded digital audio-visual data a problem occurred that predictions about the remaining available recording time on a mass storage medium being used were not possible because the applied coding causes the data rate of the digital audio-visual data to vary considerably. According to the invention, the problem may be avoided, by determining mean data rates for program sections which enables a prediction of the amount of data storage capacity to be expected for each program section.

Abstract: A resin composite material which comprises a resin base and a metal-element-containing
ingredient disposed on the surface of the base and is obtained by a wet process, characterized by
having no catalyst layers. The resin composite material is superior in adhesion between the resin
base and the metal-element-containing ingredient and in evenness of the thickness of the metal-element-containing
coating film to the resin composite materials obtained by conventional wet
processes. The formation of the resin composite material necessitates neither etching nor
electroless plating unlike the conventional wet processes. Consequently, the resin composite
material can be easily produced without causing pollution attributable to these treatments, such
as working atmosphere worsening and the pollution of the global environment.

Abstract: A heat exchange assemblage (1161) is adapted for use with other such heat
exchange assemblages for cooling or heating a controlled environment, or
controlling the humidity thereof. Each heat exchange assemblage is intended for use
in conjunction with a communication network linking all such heat exchange
assemblages, but each can operate autonomously if the network fails. Each heat
exchange assemblage includes a heat pump (1116) and a controller (1161c). At startup, the
controller (1161c) determines whether its previous state was PRIMARY or SECONDARY,
and tries to assume the corresponding state. If no one assemblage assumes
PRIMARY status, a random scheme in conjunction with communications aids in
establishing one of the assemblages as PRIMARY, while others remain
SECONDARY. The controller (1161c) of the PRIMARY assemblage compares the current
environmental state, as established by signals arriving at its communication port (1161cp),
with a setpoint, which may also be remotely set, to control operation. A
SECONDARY assemblage may compare the rate of change of the current
environmental state with a rate-of-change setpoint, to determine when the
SECONDARY assemblage should operate.

second intake branch pipes to extend between first and second
dispensing chambers (37R,37L), and a lid (44) detachably coupled to the
dispensing box body to close the opening and having the other

by casting, and a valve bore (40) and bearing bores (54) for supporting
a valve shaft (53) of the on-off valve are defined in the other half
of the partition wall. Thus, it is possible to carry out the
maintenance of the on-off valve only by removing the lid
disposed outside the intake air-dispensing box from the box,
leading to an enhancement in maintenance property.

Abstract: A current detector comprising a first (3 or 3   a   ) and a second (4 or
4   a   ) current-path detector each in the form of a sheet-metal punching having
a pair of relatively broad terminal webs (17 and 18; or 20 and 21) of
rectangular shape joined together via a bridge (16 or 19) of arcuate shape.
The bridges are slender compared to the terminal webs for concentrated
current flow therethrough. Various arrangements are possible for the two
current-path conductors, but their bridges are invariably placed in superposition
upon one another. A Hall generator (14) is positioned between
the bridges (16, 19) so as to be acted upon by magnetic fields created upon
current flow therethrough. One (e.g. 18) of the terminal webs of the first
current-path conductor (3) is electrically connected to one (e.g. 20) of the
terminal web of the second, in such a way that the magnetic lines of force
due to current flow through the two bridges act in the same direction upon
the Hall generator.

Abstract: A method of producing a high-strength high-toughness martensitic stainless steel
seamless pipe which includes heating a martensitic stainless steel raw material to an
austenitic range and subjecting the raw material to piercing and elongating to form an
original pipe. The original pipe is cooled to form a structure substantially composed of
martensite in the original pipe. The original pipe is reheated to a temperature in the dual-phase
range between the A c1  transformation point and the A c3  transformation point, and is
subjected to finishing rolling at an initial rolling temperature T (°C) between the A c1 
transformation point and the A c3  transformation point. The original pipe is then cooled to
form a processed pipe. The processed pipe is tempered at a temperature below the A c1 
transformation point. The reduction in area R in the finishing rolling step may be in the
range of 10% to 90%, and the initial rolling temperature T and the reduction in area R may
satisfy the relationship: 800 ≤ T - 0.625R ≤ 850.

Abstract: Data/voice chatting, wherein a first user (1) exchanges text information with a
second user (2) via a chat server (6a). The first user requests via the chat server a
telephone connection with the second user. The chat server transmits a request to
the second user and the second user transmits a respons. If the respons code is
positive, a telephone subserver (13) establishes the requested telephone
connection. In a prior step, each user may register his/her telephone number in the
chat server or telephone server. Alternatively, the second user may enter her/his
telephone number which is registered with an ID code linked to it, which ID code is
transmitted to the first user. The first user makes a telephone call and transmits
the value of said ID code to the telephone server. The value of the received ID
code is matched with the registered ID codes, after which the telephone server
establishes the requested connection between the first user's and the second
user's telephone terminals (9,10).
