Abstract: A syringe cylinder 12 includes a groove 32 formed in an inner peripheral surface thereof and extending over a predetermined length from an opening end 30 thereof. Even with the intermediate sliding stopper 14 located at a position where the groove 32 is formed, the pressure inside the syringe cylinder 12 can be reduced. Thus, during vacuum tapping, the intermediate sliding stopper 14 can be held in the vicinity of the opening end 30 of the syringe cylinder 12. Consequently, the intermediate sliding stopper 14 can be inserted into the syringe cylinder 12 in a correct posture and reliably moved to a predetermined position in the syringe cylinder 12.

Abstract: An outer ring member for a constant velocity joint is manufactured. An intermediate preformed product having a cup section with an incomplete shape is formed by pressing a large diameter section without applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment. Then, applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment to the intermediate preformed product, thereafter a formed product having a cup section provided with ball-rolling grooves is formed by backward extrusion to the intermediate preformed product. Subsequently, the product is ironed before hardening, without applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment to the formed product.

An intermediate preformed product 16 having a cup section 21 with an incomplete shape is formed by pressing a large diameter section 14 without applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment. Then, applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment to the intermediate preformed product 16, thereafter a formed product having a cup section 8 provided with ball-rolling grooves 17a to 17f is formed by backward extrusion to the intermediate preformed product 16. Subsequently, the product is ironed before hardening, without applying a low temperature annealing treatment and a lubricating chemical conversion coating treatment to the formed product.

Abstract: A pair of holes are formed with a predetermined space therebetween on a long and narrow base plate. An adhesive is applied to the surface of the base plate. Head substrates each having a row of thermal resistors on the surface thereof are placed on the adhesive on the base plate such that the joint of the head substrates is positioned between the pair of holes of the base plate. The adhesive is hardened in the state in which the head substrates are pushed upward by a thruster(s) means inserted into a pair of holes while the base plate is supported from below and the head substrates is pressed from above. The base plate is bonded to a radiating plate by an adhesive only at the central portion. Thus, there is no difference in level at the joint of the head substrates, and even when the radiating plate expands due to heat, the base plate is not deformed.

Abstract: A heater comprises an insulating substrate which carries a parallel pair of conductor strips. The respective conductor strips are spaced from each other transversely thereof but electrically connected to each other by a plurality of heating resistors which are spaced longitudinally of the respective conductor strips. Advantageously, the heating resistors are arranged or configured so that the heater will have a temperature distribution which is equalized longitudinally.

Abstract: A linear heater comprises an insulating substrate, at least one resistor strip formed on the substrate, insulating edge members formed on the substrate to extend along the respective longitudinal margins of the resistor strip in contact therewith, and a heat-resistant protective coating formed on the substrate for covering the resistor strip and the respective edge members. The respective edge members, which themselves provide an insulating function, compensate for a thickness reduction of the protective coating at positions corresponding to the longitudinal margins of the resistor strip.

The resistor strip has a double-layer structure which includes a first resistor layer formed directly on the substrate, and a second resistor layer formed on the first resistor layer. The first resistor layer has a pair of upwardly bulging longitudinal margins, whereas the second resistor layer is formed between the pair of upwardly bulging longitudinal margins of the first resistor layer to provide a substantially flat surface.

Abstract: A heater for a sheet material comprises an insulating substrate and a main resistor strip formed on the substrate. The substrate is further formed with auxiliary resistor strips adjacent to both ends of the main resistor strip. In operation, the main and auxiliary resistor strips are actuated simultaneously for heat generation. As a result, the additional heat generated by the auxiliary resistor strips compensates for higher heat dissipation at both ends of the heater, thereby equalizing the temperature distribution longitudinally of the heater.
