PURPOSE:To retard the peeling-off of an active material and short circuit in the bottom by making larger the welding length of plate lug and a ledge than the width of a plate group. CONSTITUTION:A spacer 4 is placed on the outside of a plate end plate 3 of a plate group 2, and the height of the spacer 4 is made equal to that of a plate. A lug 6 of the plate end plate 3 and the end of a ledge 5 are...

PURPOSE:To increase the discharge capacity by making adhere slurry prepared by mixing lead oxide or lead powder with ethyl alcohol or water in which KOH or NaOH is dissolved and glycerin or ethylene glycol on an antimony-free alloy grid, and drying to form a film on the grid. CONSTITUTION:Slurry prepared by mixing lead oxide or lead powder with ethyl alcohol or water in which KOH or NaOH is dissol...

A compressed air thread splicing device for producing a knot-free thread connection by splicing includes a splicing head having a splicing channel formed therein with two at least partially open ends for receiving threads to be joined in a given insertion direction and for alternately tangling, intertwining, swirling and winding fibers of the threads around each other, the splicing head having at ...

A continuous marine pipe laying system utilizes two rollers to overbend and straighten pipe as it is unwound from a reel. A support arm is pivotally connected to the axis of rotation of said reel and first and second roller arms are pivotally connected to the support arm at a point spaced from said axis of rotation. During use, the first roller is positioned at a point adjacent the pipe substantia...

A stacker vehicle with a load-turning device, a lifting mast, a load-carrier slide and lifting-drive devices in the lifting mast has two load carriers which are guided in a vertically movable manner with regard to the lifting mast (3) and of which one is provided as a load-carrier slide (11) for the stacking of the load and the other is provided as a vertically movable load-turning-device slide (1...

PURPOSE:To decrease modulation and to improve reliability and performance by using an alloy underlying layer formed by adding Ti or Si to Cr and forming at least a thin magnetic film thereon. CONSTITUTION:An underlying layer 13 consisting of a CrTi or CrSi alloy and the thin magnetic film 14 are at least deposited on a nonmagnetic substrate 11. The magnetic Co film 14 is isotropical within the pla...

The heel support (6) makes it possible to adjust to various heights and lengths of a sole. It comprises a heel support housing (11) with a front part (13) which presses on the edge of the heel end of the ski boot sole and so fixes the ski boot on the safety binding. An opening lever (10) has a lower part (28) which slides on a curved part (27) of the heel support housing. The opening lever (10) is...

An inert, water-immiscible inert organic liquid having gas transport properties, water and a suitable emulsifying agent are formed into a stable gel by emulsifying a mixture of the same, concentrating the emulsion to form a gel phase and a liquid phase, and separating the two phases. The resulting gel can be used as an ointment or cosmetic for skin irritations or wounds, or as a coating in industr...

A low density foam product is formed from a chlorinated polyvinyl chloride polymer (CPVC) composition containing a primary blowing agent and a nucleating system comprised of an alkali metal borohydride and a proton donor activator.

PURPOSE:To facilitate optimization of critical current density and also facilitate controlling of product performance by repeating composite processing for Ti sheath NbTi alloy rods whose each periphery is coated with a Ti sheet or Ti pipe so that a thin ribbon tape shape is obtained and making these rods exist in a NbTi matrix. CONSTITUTION:Ti sheath NbTi alloy rods whose each periphery is coated...

A molten metal is placed in contact with a bed of moving beads. The molten metal breaks up into fine particles which are rapidly cooled in contact with the beads and consequently acquire a structure which is typical for such rapid cooling.

A measuring tube is inserted into a bore hole for measuring underground fluid pressure and is sealed against the bore hole wall for limiting the areas or regions in which the pressure measurement is to occur. A measuring cell is inserted into the measuring tube wall in each of these areas or regions and includes a mobile pressure sensing element against which acts the pressure of the medium surrou...

A polymerizable composition particularly for dental use, comprises at least one methacrylate monomer having 2 to 4 polymerizable double bonds, from 0 to 400% based on the monomer of inorganic particulate filler, from 0 to 5% based on the monomer or silane coupling agent, an effective catalyst-activating amount of accelerator comprising copper ion and from 0.5 to 5.0% based on the monomer of (a) an...

PURPOSE:To supply data when access to a main memory is possible and to improve the efficiency of utilization of a data buffer by supplyng a memory request signal and an address to a main memory control part separately from the data. CONSTITUTION:When a vector store instruction is transmitted, the adder 13 of an access pipeline 10 generates the starting address of an element and this is converted b...
