  • Publication number: 20040143943
    Abstract: A fastener comprises a flange having an insertion hole, a plurality of circumferentially spaced clamping legs extending from the flange, and a nut connected integrally to ends of the clamping legs. The nut and the clamping legs are inserted into a mounting hole of a workpiece. Then the nut is pulled toward the flange to cause buckling of the clamping legs. The fastener is set to the workpiece by clamping the workpiece between the buckled clamping legs and the flange. Each of the clamping legs has a buckling portion, a nut-side leg portion and a flange-side leg portion. The buckling portion is thinner than the nut-side and flange-side leg portions. The nut-side leg portion has a higher strength than the flange-side leg portion. A region of the nut-side leg portion adjacent to the nut has a lower strength than that of the remaining region thereof.

  • Patent number: 6432373
    Abstract: In an apparatus for selectively reduction-removing nitrogen oxides in exhaust gas in presence of catalyst by spraying aqueous solid reducing agent solution into exhaust gas flowing through a duct to mix the reducing agent into exhaust gas, the present invention prevents nozzle-clogging caused by the reducing agent or its reaction product, permits stable and continuous spraying and uniform mixing of the reducing agent solution into exhaust gas, and thus removes nitrogen oxides at a high efficiency. The nozzle is cooled by supplying at least one of water and gas before supplying the solution into the nozzle. Upon discontinuing supply of the solution to the nozzle, at least one of water and gas is supplied to remove the solution remaining in the nozzle. The solution stored at high concentration is sprayed after diluting it with water in the course of transfer for spraying. A line for supplying water for diluting is added to the line for supplying the solution.
