Abstract: A triboelectric powder spraying gun is provided which can produce an increased deposition efficiency and an improved coated surface. The spraying gun comprises an earthed or high voltage-impressed conductive nozzle having, as a lining, a plastic material which possesses an electrification series remarkably different from that of a powdered paint, in which said powdered paint is transferred to said nozzle so that it is triboelectrically charged within said nozzle, and a turbulence generator arranged inside of said nozzle. The surface of said turbulence generator is coated with a plastic material possessing an electrification series remarkably different from that of said powdered paint.

Abstract: A gasket for use in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine comprises a metallic spacer member which is fitted into each through bore or clearance hole of the gasket for insertion of the shank of a a head bolt, said spacer member having a height dimension taken in the thickness direction of the gasket that is smaller than the gasket thickness gained when the gasket is compressed by normal fastening of the head bolt.
