Abstract: An improved assembly composed of a hard member (2) and a soft tube (1) fitted onto the hard member (2) for a medical use is formed with a plurality of projections (5) on the side wall of a flange (4) of the hard member (2). The projections (5) project toward the soft tube (1) side to firmly hold the foremost end part of the soft tube (1) between the projections (5) and a fitting portion (3) of the hard member (2) in a clamped state when the soft tube (1) is fitted onto a fitting portion (3) of the hard member (2). The foremost end surface of the soft tube (1) may slantwise be cut to define a certain angle relative to the center axis of the assembly such that the foremost end part of the soft tube (1) comes in tight contact with the side wall of the flange (4) when the soft tube (1) is fitted onto the fitting portion of the hard member (2). The soft tube (1) may be formed with a plurality of cutouts which are arranged along the periphery of the foremost end surface of the soft tube (1) in a spaced relationship. Each cutout preferably exhibits a V-shaped contour which defines a certain opening angle symmetrically relative to the center axis of the assembly.

Abstract: A diamond synthesizing apparatus comprises a reaction tube for internally making reaction for vapor-phase synthesizing diamond, and plasma generation means for generating prescribed microwave plasma in this reaction tube. The reaction tube is coupled with a gas reservoir, which defines a circulation system with the reaction tube. The circulation system comprises means for evacuating its interior. This circulation system further comprises means for circulating raw material gas, which is a compound containing carbon, in a sealed state, and raw material gas supply means for intermittently or continuously supplying the raw material gas into the circulation system. According to this diamond synthesizing apparatus, it is possible to suppress pressure fluctuation and composition fluctuation following reaction and gas addition to the minimum and to vapor-phase synthesize diamond in extremely restricted ranges of gas composition and pressure. Further, consumption of the raw material gas is extremely reduced and gas concentration in the reaction tube is extremely slowly and smoothly changed in gas supply, whereby it is possible to suppress influence exerted by the changes in gas concentration to the film quality.

Abstract: The fifth wheel (3) of an articulated vehicle comprising the coupling between a semi-trailer (2) and a tractor (1) is provided with measuring apparatus for measuring forces imparted from the semi-trailer. The apparatus comprises a sensing device (5) for measuring horizontal loads (AD), and a sensing device (6) for measuring vertical loads (W). The signals from the sensing devices (5) and (6) are fed into an electronic controller (26), in turn to cause the brakes (27) on the trailer (2) to be applied to achieve balanced braking, anti-lock control, and traction control of the wheels. We can therefore use a tractor fitted with a braking system of the brake-by-wire type with a conventional semi-trailer, without modifications to semi-trailer or to the braking components of the semi-trailer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for testing the response of a stress wave sensor (12) to check that the transducer (14) and amplifier (16) are working satisfactorily. 
     A pulse generator (22) is connected to the stress wave sensor (12) at a point between the transducer (14) and the amplifier (14). The pulse generator (22) supplies an electrical pulse to the stress wave sensor (12). A pulse cancelling device (30) prevents the electrical pulse going directly to the amplifier (16). The electrical pulse causes the transducer (14( to emit stress wave energy into a structure (10) to which the transducer (14) is acoustically coupled. The transducer (14) detects the stress wave signal propagating in the structure (10) and supplies an electrical signal to the amplifier (16). The electrical signal is amplified by the amplifier (16) and demodulated by demodulator (18). A processor (32) measures the peak and area of the demodulated amplified electrical signal and compares them with stored values. The processor may produce a warning signal, or supply a feedback signal to the amplifier if the stress wave sensor is not operating satisfactorily.
