Abstract: The invention comprises a universal circuit board holding apparatus having a frame with side, front and rear rails. Adjustably positionable rails extend across the frame between the side rails and they are movable in the direction of the front and rear rails. Releasable clamping means engage the side rails and the adjustably positionable rails, permitting movement of the adjustably positionable rails along the side rails when released and for automatically locking the adjustably positionable rails to the side rails when clamping. Circuit board supports are carried by the adjustable rails and either or both of the rear and front rails. Further releasable clamps positionably fix the circuit board supports to the rails while permitting movement therealong upon release to accommodate various sized boards.

Abstract: A consumable welding electrode, a method of electroslag welding using such an electrode, and an electroslag weld deposit produced by the use of the welding electrode and welding method of the invention. The welding electrode, while not restricted thereto, has particular utility for use in the electroslag welding of high tensile strength members formed of low alloy steels of the family of steels which includes American Society of Testing Materials designation ASTM A516-76.

Abstract: A method of electroslag welding for use in the electroslag welding of high tensile strength members formed of low alloy steels of the family of steels which includes American Society of Testing Materials designation ASTM A516-76. The welding electrode used in the method has a chemical composition in which the carbon content and contaminants have been reduced to the very minimum possible, resulting in greater impact strength of the electroslag weld deposit. The welding electrode includes constituents of manganese, silicon, nickel and iron. The nickel and manganese content of the electrode are so proportioned as to compensate for loss of tensile strength in the electroslag weld deposit which would otherwise be caused by the minimal carbon content of the welding electrode, this proportioning of the nickel and manganese content of the welding electrode also maximizing impact strength and ductility of the weld deposit.

Abstract: Deposited on a glass or ceramic substrate for a thin-film microcircuit board such as a hybrid IC board or a transparent electrode is a thin-film laminate, which comprises a dispersion metal thin-film dispersible and evaporable upon application of an energy above a threshold value and an electrical property-imparting film defining a conductor or a resistor. Then a high intensity of light having an energy sufficient to cause dispersion is applied selectively on the thin-film laminate, thereby removing exposed portions of the thin-film laminate as a result of dispersion and evaporation thereof. Unexposed portions of the thin-film laminate provide a desired pattern. The electrical property-imparting film is a thin-film of noble metal such as gold, silver or platinum or a thin film of transparent electrode material such as SnO.sub.2 or In.sub.2 O.sub.3, which is not easily dispersible upon application of the above energy.

Abstract: A coated electrode suitable for the welding of gray cast iron is provided comprising a core of iron or iron alloy with a coating thereon of a composition which on the dry weight basis contains 5% to 10% of a binder of an alkali metal silicate, 25% to 50% by weight of ferrovanadium containing 40% to 85% vanadium, 20% to 40% powdered iron, 15% to 20% BaCO.sub.3, 10% to 20% CaF.sub.2, and 1% to 3% ferrosilicon containing 30% to 80% silicon. It is preferred in welding a gray cast iron part to so arrange the electrode relative to the part so that the arc thereof is directed at an angle between 30.degree. and 60.degree. to the substrate surface so that the heat of the arc is not applied directly to the surface of the cast iron substrate but is absorbed substantially by the weld bead formed during welding.

Abstract: Sealed power cables (e.g. for underground or submarine use) are often equipped with a metal sheath. A problem with some such cables is that their insulation is subject to greater thermal expansion of the cable during use than the metal sheath is capable of following. According to the present invention the metal sheath (5) is longitudinally corrugated either when the metal sheath is manufactured or by pressing a metal sheet which is originally plane over resilient ribs disposed longitudinally on the cable.
