Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing chip cards having electronic modules. The prior art discloses different production methods for such chip cards wherein the particular electronic module used has a special structure. In contrast, a method is now presented for producing chip cards having electronic modules that uses a standardized electronic module which is adapted to the production technique for the card in a last method step and connected with the card body by the selected technique.

Abstract: A valve gear device for internal combustion engines incorporates a stem connected to an intake and exhaust valve which opens or closes an intake bore or exhaust bore opening in a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine; a first spring which urges the stem toward the direction of blocking the intake and exhaust valve; a cam supported around a cam shaft; and a valve deactivating mechanism provided between the cam and the stem.

Abstract: A device for fitting up an auxiliary lamp of the present invention includes a pair of brackets 2 opposite to each other and projecting from an auxiliary lamp body 1, a support plate 4 having one side surface adhered to a surface of an automobile, pivot members 5 for projecting from another side surface of the support plate 4 to be fitted loosely between the brackets 2, pivot members 5 interposing washer and nut members 6 and 7, arcuate members 8 and 9 on both sides of the brackets 2, arcuate members 10 and 11 at the surface of the washer and nut members 6 and 7, respectively, and the pivot, washer and nut members 5, 6 and 7 and brackets 2 that have a horizontally elongate recess 12, a through hole 13, a tapped hole 14 and a through hole 15 at the center, respectively and that are engaged by a bolt 16. Thereby, an illumination direction of an auxiliary lamp can be easily adjusted in the vertical or horizontal directions after the auxiliary lamp has been fitted to an automobile by an adhesive.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for dressing a hone of a honing wheel which is used for honing a gear to be finished. A dressing tool is brought into contact with the honing wheel under a predetermined constant contact pressure and during the reciprocal feed of the dressing tool. The amount of the contact pressure is maintained constant so as to gradually increase the in-feed of the honing wheel. This is useful in decreasing the number of transverse feeds of the dressing tool.

Abstract: A device for converting a straight pipe having an annular cross-section defined between an inner diameter and an outer diameter into a bent pipe having a non-annular cross-section, and method for making the same are disclosed. The device includes a round, bar-shaped guide member having a first end portion and a second end portion which is spaced therefrom in the axial direction and for being mounted slidably with the straight pipe. A floating member is formed into a prismoid and connected to the second end of the round, bar-shaped guide member in a ball-and-socket joint. The prismoid includes a first end in the form of a small polygon whose maximum radial length is less than the inner diameter of the straight pipe, and a second end in the form of a large polygon similar to the small polygon in shape and spaced from the first end in the axial direction.
