Abstract: To provide a plate material conveying system configured to load plate materials produced by a press work onto a tray at regular intervals, prior to a cleaning process. The plate material conveying system comprises: a feeding section 13 that feeds the plate materials produced by the press work at regular intervals; a storage section 14 that stores the plate materials conveyed sequentially from the feeding section 13; a loading section 15 that loads the plate materials stored in the storage section 14 on the tray opposing thereto at one time; and a discharging section 16 that conveys the tray from a site to be opposed to the storage section 14 to a predetermined site.

Abstract: A method for bonding metal parts to each other includes a first step of sandwiching a bonding member between surfaces to be bonded of a first metal part and a second metal part, the bonding member having a melting point within a range of ?150° C. to +150° C. with respect to melting points of the first and second metal parts, and a second step of resistance-welding the surfaces to be bonded of the first and second metal parts to each other using the bonding member.

Abstract: A connecting terminal for a connector has a fixed portion configured to be connected to an electrode portion provided in a member for mounting the connector, and a contact configured to electrically come in contact with a contact portion of a connected portion to be connected to the connector. At least one concave portion is provided along a whole outer peripheral surface of the connector terminal.

Abstract: A contact includes a plate with a width that ranges from 0.1 mm or more to 1 mm or less, and a stress concentrated place, where a surface roughness (Ra) on the stress concentrated place is 0.2 ?m or less. When samples whose surface roughness Ra is 0.040 ?m, 0.080 ?m, 0.120 ?m, and 0.180 ?m were used to study a number of repetitive fracture times, as the surface roughness Ra was smaller, the number of repetitive fracture times became larger. Particularly, it is found that the surface roughness Ra may be 0.200 ?m or less in order to satisfy 3000 times as a number of operating times of the battery connector. Further, the surface roughness Ra may be 0.080 ?m or less in order to satisfy 6000 times as the number of operating times when a safety factor is 2.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a metal component includes the steps of forming a resist film on a surface of an electrode plate, making the resist film exposed to light by use of a photomask having a mask pattern, in at least part of a rim of which a fine concavity and convexity are drawn, developing the resist film, to form an opening for molding in the resist film, and epositing an electroforming material by electroforming inside the opening for molding, to mold the material.
