A degranulator for torch-on roofing paper improves lap joint and stripping bonds by smoothing the granular surface of the roofing paper to be bonded. The degranulator has a frame for mounting a torch and an embedment roller. The torch melts the granules on the roofing paper and the embedment roller follows behind, smoothing the surface of the paper. Page 7

An intake system for a multiple-cylinder engine has a plurality of discrete intake passages which are substantially equal to each other in length and are connected to the respective cylinders at their downstream ends. The upstream ends of the discrete intake passages are merged into an integrated chamber, and an upstream side intake passage communicates the integrated chamber with the atmosphere. ...

The system includes a laser for producing laser rays, an optical fiber for transmitting the produced laser rays, a cylindrical lens for converting the laser ray into a linear ray to be crossed on the welding bead, a welding torch for GMA welding a thin film superposition joint portion, a camera for receiving an optical image to convert it into a video signal, a welding power supplying means, an am...

An internal combustion engine provided with an electrically heated heating member on which fuel strikes and which is disposed in the combustion chamber. An electrically heated heating member (13) is disposed in a cavity (7) formed on the top of the piston (2) and fuel in the form of continuous liquid flow is jetted from a nozzle (9) of the fuel jetting valve (8) toward the heated surface (15) of t...
