In a solenoid valve with ON/OFF switch arranged by a valve member and the associated valve seat defined in an electrically conductive body, the solenoid valve has a stopper connected to the valve member for setting the stroke of the valve member and comes in contact with the body when an actuator for driving the valve member is in its de-energized state and an electrically insulating sheet provide...

An apparatus for joining textile threads with the aid of compressed air, for mounting in an automatic winding machine, comprises, in front of and behind a mixing chamber, opposing walls with guides for positioning the threads laterally to the chamber and perpendicularly to its longitudinal axis. The front wall carries members for crossing-over the threads before their insertion into the chamber. I...

A radial tire carcass fabricated by a first stage process has bead portions which are placed over a pair of spaced-apart coaxial bead seats. The bead seats may be segmented radially expandable rings which are expanded by fluid pressure into engagement with the bead portions. The tire carcass is initially positioned on the drum with the bead seats at a spaced-apart distance so that upon expansion o...

The compositions comprise about 80 to about 97% by weight of the refractory particles of, for example, tungsten carbide. The particles are bonded within an alloy matrix of between about 5 and about 50% nickel, sufficient carbon to avoid the formation of detrimental carbon deficient or excess carbon phases and a balance of about 95 to about 50% iron by weight. In a preferred embodiment, the alloy m...

Apparatus and method for starting respective leading ends on web running continuously and would into successive rolls, such as paper. As each roll reaches a final diameter, a fresh leading end is provided on the web by slitting in a generally cross-machine direction from a leading starter tongue projection extending downstream. The starter tongue projection with the fresh leading end of the web is...

A method for producing an absorption body, notably for use in cases of female incontinence which include forming a core by dry depositing a layer of hot meltable thermoplastic fibers and a highly absorbing pulverulent material, e.g. a cross-linked polymer prepared from a methacrylic monomer, on a porous sheet, subjecting the layer to heat treatment to form a stable three-dimensional fiber network ...

PURPOSE:To make more effectively metallic powder fine by spouting molten metal from a nozzle, blowing gaseous oxygen on the spouted molten metal to carry out primary atomization, and carrying out secondary atomization by collision against a moving refrigerant. CONSTITUTION:Water as a refrigerant 2 is poured in a hollow roll 1 whose top is open, and the roll 1 is rotated in the direction of an arro...

PURPOSE:To make a metal amorphous at higher efficiency and to obtain the amorphous metal of pulverous powder grains which are uniform and approximately spherical with a process for injecting a molten metal to a high-speed rotating body by specifying the shape of the rotating body. CONSTITUTION:A vessel-shaped rotating body 1 is formed of a rotating body having a revolving shaft 5 which is the cent...

PURPOSE:To produce continuously fine and spherical metallic powder at a good yield by blowing a high-pressure gas from the side diagonal with the molten metal directed toward the liquid layer in a rotary drum so as to collide against the rotating liquid layer. CONSTITUTION:Water is supplied at a prescribed flow rate through a water replenishing port 6 into a drum 1 under rotation to form a rotary ...

Process for preparing a food flavour comprises inactivating yeast and carrying out enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in conjunction with fermentation with micro-organisms. Preferably the enzymatic degradation is carried out with more than one enzyme either simultaneously or sequentially.
