Abstract: According to one embodiment, a liquid discharge head includes a flexible printed circuit (FPC) connected to piezoelectric elements. The FPC has a first end in the first direction. A wiring layer of the FPC has a first region at the first end and a cover layer covering on a second region. The piezoelectric elements are spaced from each other in a second direction and each has a first electrode on a side surface facing towards the FPC. The first side has a joint surface facing the first region of the wiring layer. The first electrode is electrically connected to the wiring layer at the joint surface. The side surface includes a step portion that is recessed from the joint surface. A portion of the cover layer protrudes into a space adjacent to the step portion.

Abstract: An apparatus for assembling a motorcar vehicle body by welding right and left side panels to other vehicle body constituting members such as a floor panel, a roof panel and the like. A movable frame is provided respectively on right side and left side of an assembling station into which the other vehicle body constituting members are brought. The movable frame is movable back and forth between a laterally outward waiting position and a laterally inward welding position. A pair of presetting apparatuses respectively moves a presetting jig into and out of a space between the assembling station and the respective movable frame which is in the waiting position. The presetting jig holds a plurality of parts which constitute the side panel in a predetermined positional relationship. A setting jig is detachably mounted on the respective movable frame and receives the plurality of parts from the presetting jig.

Abstract: A system for assembling a motorcar vehicle body is divided into a first-floor portion and a second-floor portion. The first-floor portion has a main working line provided with a vehicle body assembling station, a floor panel assembling line, and a floor panel parts working line. The second-floor portion has another floor panel parts working line and a roof panel working line. There are provided apparatuses for charging floor panel consitituting parts worked in the floor panel parts working line disposed on the first-floor portion to a floor panel assembling line, and for lowering floor panel constituting parts worked in the floor panel parts working line disposed on the second-floor portion from the second-floor portion to charge them to the floor panel assembling line so that these constituting parts are combined together in the floor panel assembling line to assemble the floor panel.

Abstract: A welding control apparatus and a method for controlling thereof for automatic welding machines having a welding gun successively moved by a robot to a plurality of welding spots on a work object for welding is disclosed. The welding control apparatus and the method for controlling thereof detect any abnormal conditions for preventing damages to the gun or undesired occurrence of holes in the work object.

Abstract: The body of a vehicle is provided at a side portion thereof with a mount frame having a mount portion for a front loader. The front loader has a mast removably attachable to the mount portion, a lift arm supported by the mast, a lift cylinder connected between the mast and the lift arm, a working portion pivotably supported by the front end of the lift arm, a work cylinder connected between the lift arm and the working portion, and a brace removably connectable between the mast and a front side portion of the vehicle body. When the front loader is to be attached to or removed from the vehicle body, the brace is removably attached to the lift arm or to the working portion, and with the brace and the working portion placed on the ground, the work cylinder is extended or contracted, lowering or raising the lift arm and the mast, whereby the mast is shifted between an attached position on the mount portion and a removed position thereabove.

Abstract: A pair of mount members extending longitudinally of the body of a tractor are fixedly provided at opposite sides of the tractor body. A pair of projecting brackets positioned toward the front from the steps of the tractor extend laterally outward from front portions of the pair of mount members and are provided with a pair of opposite mount portions for a front loader and with a pair of opposite front mount portions for a working implement of the mid-mount type. A pair of opposite rear mount portions for the implement are provided at opposite sides of longitudinally intermediate portions of the mount members or of a longitudinally intermediate portion of the tractor body.

Abstract: A fire escape descender capable of controlling the descending speed, thereby ensuring that the escaper can escape from the burning building at a desired speed, wherein the speed controlling is effected either manually or automatically.

Abstract: A device for removably attaching a front working implement to a tractor body comprises a bearing portion provided on each side of the front portion of the tractor body and a fitting portion provided on a front portion of each brace of the implement. The bearing portion and the fitting portion are tapered and engageable with each other in a vertical direction. The brace has a lever plate for holding the fitting portion engaged in the bearing portion and a bolt for fastening the lever plate.

Abstract: A welding gun apparatus having a gun bracket, a pair of arms pivotally mounted on the bracket, a transformer mounted on the bracket, and a pressure applying mechanism on the bracket for opening and closing the gun arms; characterized in that the gun bracket comprises a frame which extends longitudinally from a front pivot portion for pivotally supporting the gun arms to a rear portion, the transformer being positioned in and fixed to the frame between the front pivot portion and the rear portion.

Abstract: An apparatus for attaching a front loader to a tractor or like vehicle comprises a pair of opposite lift arms removably connectable to the vehicle and pivotally movable upward and downward, a bucket supported by the front ends of the lift arms with pivots and pivotally movable upward and downward, bucket cylinders for pivotally moving the bucket, and a restraining member removably attached to the bucket for preventing the pivotal movement of the bucket relative to the ground. The lift arms as disconnected from the vehicle are moved by the bucket cylinders about the pivots to an attached position relative to the vehicle or to a removed position above the attached position and can be held in either position.
