  • Patent number: 9726213
    Abstract: Tips of sections in a spreading state come into contact with vertical wall portions of a middle member at positions between a first plate-like member and center portions of the vertical wall portions in the thickness direction. Then, the sections break through the vertical wall portions, and are fastened to a hollow laminated board. Thus, a mounting bracket is attached to the hollow laminated board. This makes it possible to obtain a deck board with a small recessed portion formed in a top face.

  • Patent number: 9221403
    Abstract: An interior part for a vehicle includes a body member including protrusions and depressions, a first member having a flat sheet shape and attached to one side of the body member, and a second member having a flat sheet shape and attached to another side of the body member. An edge of the side end of the first member is fixed with an edge of the side end of the second member in a convex manner via an edge of a side end of the body member. The edges of the first member, the body member and the second member are processed by a chamfer treatment to form an inclined portion outwardly inclined from the second member toward the first member. According to the interior part, unpleasant feeling to be brought to a user when touching the inclined portion is drastically restricted.

  • Patent number: 5302802
    Abstract: The present invention belongs to the field of techniques related to a laser robot and a method of controlling the same, particularly for performing weaving of a laser beam easily with high accuracy without the provision of a vibrating condenser lens at the leading edge of an arm.To solve the problems, in the laser robot (RB) of the present invention, a first inclined mirror (41a) is mounted on a motor (42a) inclined at a predetermined angle from a plane perpendicular to the direction of the rotation axis of a rotor shaft. Similarly, a second inclined mirror (41b) is mounted on a motor (42b) inclined at a predetermined angle. The laser beam (LB) emitted from a laser oscillator (8) is reflected in series by the first and second inclined mirrors (41a, 41b) and is subsequently propagated in the laser robot (RB) to be directed toward workpieces from the tip of a torch (7).

  • Patent number: 5206474
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a weld line profile control method in weaving welding. According to this method, a welding current and/or a welding voltage in a position close to a weaving endpoint is evaluated as a reference value. A welding current and/or a welding voltage in the vicinity of an n-th (n.gtoreq.2) weaving endpoint are actually measured respectively, and thereafter an (n+1)-th weaving endpoint position is evaluated on the basis of difference between the actually measured value and the reference value. Further, welding from the n-th weaving endpoint to an (n+1)-th weaving endpoint is executed on the basis of the positional data. As the result, neither too much nor too little weaving welding can be performed.

  • Patent number: 5171966
    Abstract: A welding torch (4) of a welding robot (RO) is supported by arms (2, 3), to be movable under control by a computer (7). When first and second members (W1, W2) are welded by a weld woven across an interspace between them while oscillating a welding torch (4) along a weld line (WL). Data on changes in the interspace between the first and second welded member (W1, W2) along direction of the weld line (WL) are previously stored in advance to welding. During the welding, the computer 7 performs arithmetic to obtain command values on the basis of the data to output the same to the welding robot (RO), so that the welding robot (RO) performs weaving in accordance with the command values while varying a weaving amplitude of the welding torch (4) in response to the change in the interspace. Changes in the direction in which the welding torch is moved to weave the weld are determined by detecting the actual value of the welding current and reversing direction when the detected value exceeds a prescribed threshold value.

  • Patent number: 5038457
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a harness producing apparatus for producing a harness (1) by cutting a wire (600a, 600b) having a core covered with a covering, stripping the covering from a cut end portion of the wire and attaching a terminal (604a, 604b) to the stripped end portion of the core. According to this apparatus, a holding means (201) for holding the wire (600a, 600b) is three-dimensionally moved by a moving means (202). When the covering is stripped off, the holding means (201) holds the wire (600a, 600b) at the vicinity of the cut end, so that the wire (600a, 600b) hardly expands and the stripping can be accurate. Further, when the terminal is attached, the core can be moved to a proper position in relation to a terminal attaching means (400) according to a type of terminal.
