  • Patent number: 6800159
    Abstract: In a method of cutting a cloth of the invention, a cloth woven by warps and wefts is cut at 45 to 55 degrees to divide the cloth into a left-to-right cutting bias portion and a right-to-left cutting bias portion as bias cloths. The left-to-right cutting bias portion has a left-to-right stretching direction, and the right-to-left cutting bias portion has a right-to-left stretching direction. Then, the right-to-left cutting bias portion and the left-to-right cutting bias portion are cut into bias front cloths, bias adhesive core pieces, bias adhesive tapes, and bias linings. By crossing the bias core pieces or the like having the different stretching directions and bonding to a stretchable cloth, a stable stretchability and tension can be given to the stretchable cloth.

  • Patent number: 5951843
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for electrolytically extracting lithium at high purity and high efficiency are disclosed, in which the apparatus 1 includes a partition 2 constituted mainly of a perovskite-type Li ion conducting solid electrolyte, a feed chamber formed on one side of the partition in which a crude liquid containing a lithium component and impurities is introduced so as to come into contact with the partition, a recovery chamber formed on the other side of the partition in which a liquid for recovery is introduced so as to come into contact with the partition, and a means for applying an electrical field to the partition in such a manner that the crude liquid side is positive and the recovery liquid side is negative. On applying an electrical field to the partition, the lithium component of the crude liquid selectively passes through the partition in the form of Li ions into the recovery side.

  • Patent number: 5591042
    Abstract: A connector assembly with a bad-connection-preventive function is disclosed. It is simple in structure, made up of a small number of parts, and has high long-term reliability. It has a second connector having an integral locking arm and a first connector. Protrusions A and B are formed on side faces of the locking arm and the side faces of the first connector, respectively. A spring is mounted in the first connector. By inserting the second connector into the first connector, the locking arm is pushed upward by the protrusions B, so that its shoulder portion abuts the spring. Thus, the spring is compressed when the second connector is further pushed into the first connector. The connectors are thus urged in a direction away from each other by the spring. The spring disengages when the connectors are completely coupled together. When pulling the second connector out of the first connector, the protrusions A pass under the protrusions B.

  • Patent number: 5579709
    Abstract: Two cloths stretchable in all the directions can be sewed together beautifully. Each stretchable cloth includes an outer edge, a first sewing line situated away from the outer edge to thereby form a free end between the outer edge and the first sewing line, and a main portion. The cloths are laminated and sewed along the first sewing lines to form an outer stitch. Then, at least one of the two stretchable cloths is turned, so that the free ends of the stretchable cloths are covered by at least one of the main portions. Thereafter, the stretchable cloths are sewed along a second sewing line outside the free ends while the free ends are stretched in a direction away from the second sewing line to thereby form a holding stitch. Accordingly, the two stretchable cloths are sewed beautifully and stretchably.

  • Patent number: 5577810
    Abstract: b 55773576.001A disk having a non-uniform thickness with a thickness of an end portion thereof being smaller than a thickness of a hub coupling portion and a thickness of a hat portion being smaller than the thickness of the end portion. As a result, rigidity of the hat portion is decreased so that stress distribution in the disk is uniform and excess stress concentration is prevented from influencing a weld portion. Further, because of the decrease in thickness, weight of the disk also is decreased as compared to conventional disks.
