Title: Method and installation for the vacuum colouring of a metal strip by means of magnetron sputtering
Inventor: MABOGE CLAUDE
IPC: C23C14/02
Filed: 2006-10-26
Abstract: The procedure consists of brightening a metal strip (4), especially of steel, in a vacuum chamber (2) prior to coating by subjecting it to a gas plasma as it passes round a roller (3) of a conducting material and faces a counter-electrode (5) generating radicals and/or ions. It differs in the selection of a closed magnetic circuit (7) of similar width to the strip from a series of two or more such circuits of different widths, and positioning it so that it faces the strip.

Patent CA-2637094-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAILLOUX MARCIA F
IPC: F16B19/02
Filed: 2008-07-09
Abstract: An improved coiled pin comprises a rectangular strip of metal coiled to form a substantially cylindrical pin having leading and trailing ends with a longitudinal edge on the pin exterior extending between the leading and trailing ends. The longitudinal edge has a transverse slit closer to the leading end than to the trailing end, thereby forming a flap having a width extending between the slit and the leading edge and having a free end aligned with the longitudinal edge.  When the pin is fully installed and the flap is immediately adjacent the exit of the hole, the compression of the pin at the hole exit tends to expand the flap beyond such natural relaxation, approaching its neutral diameter, thereby providing a more pronounced mechanical stop against withdrawal.
