Abstract: Vibrating fishing lures provide water dynamics to attract fish such as by increasing the amount of flashing that occurs and/or by increasing the surface ripple produced by lure vibration. A vibrating fishing lure has an elongate lure body with a cavity that houses an elongate battery and an elongate electric motor. The longitudinal axis of the lure body, battery, and motor are substantially co-linear so that activation of the electric motor causes the lure body to vibrate and to begin rotation about the longitudinal axis of the lure body. A vibrating fishing lure has an eccentrically weighted motor that lies within the surface plane of water that the lure floats upon so that then activation of the motor causes the vibration of the lure body with a maximum amplitude at the surface plane of the water to maximize surface ripple.
Abstract: Fuel rod 2 has a fuel cladding tube 3, and upper end plug 5 and a lower end plug 6 welded to the ends of fuel cladding tube 3. He gas 1 and U pellets 4 are filled in the fuel cladding tube 3. The He gas pressure 1 is about 8 atm, and the average crystal grain size of the U pellet 4 is in the range of 30-60 .mu.m. The fuel rod can be manufactured at a lower manufacturing cost, while maintaining the fuel integrity the same as in a conventional fuel rod.
