Abstract: A first f? lens is arranged to form an inclination angle ?1 to a main scanning plane. A second f? lens is arranged to form an inclination angle ?2. In order to determine the inclination angles ?1 and ?2, curvature amounts of scanning lines generated on a scanned surface are measured when the f? lenses are independently inclined one at a time at a minute angle. Change rates K1 and K2 are obtained from the measured curvature amounts and the minute angles. The inclination angles ?1 and ?2 are determined such that |K1 ?1+K2 ?2| is no more than a certain value.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing printed circuit plates, which includes laminating an aluminum rolled leaf on a surface of an insulator base, forming an etching resist coat film on the surface of the aluminum rolled leaf, and then dissolving and removing an unnecessary aluminum leaf in the non-resist area with an etching liquid. The etching liquid is an aqueous solution containing (1) 0.1 to 15 mol/liter of acid of an amine hydrofluoride and (2) 0.02 to 10 mol/liter of a hydrogen peroxide, wherein the amine is one of an aliphatic amine having 12 carbon atoms or less and a heterocyclic amine, the amine having no other acid group or basic group than amino group, the etching liquid having a pH within the range from 4 to 9, wherein the hydrogen peroxide oxidizes aluminum into an aluminum oxide which is dissolved by the amine hydrofluoride.

Abstract: A prepreg tape is firstly prepared by bonding prepreg layer to a backing paper and then the prepreg tape is cut to a depth enough to cut the prepreg tape but not the backing paper. A unnecessary portion of the prepreg tape is removed from the backing paper to obtain a cut prepreg tape. A laminating attachment is moved in a predetermined direction while urging the prepreg tape against the surface of an operating table. The cut prepreg tape is peeled off from the backing paper and the peeled off prepreg tape is bonded to the operating table. The cut prepreg tapes are successively oriented in a predetermined direction and juxtaposed to form a laminated sheet. When the sheet is mounted on a mold of a predetermined shape. When the impregnated thermosetting resin is perfectly cured under heat and pressure a product useful for assembling various vehicles can be obtained.

Abstract: Novel synthesis of dihalovinylcyclopropanecarboxylates, including potent insecticides, are described. The processes begin with the reaction between an alkenol and an orthoester to produce a .gamma.-unsaturated carboxylate, followed by the catalyzed addition of a carbon tetrahalide to the double bond and dehydrohalogenation to produce a cyclopropane derivative.

Abstract: A vibration damping arrangement for a structural member including leaf springs extending horizontally from a vibration absorber body adapted to be attached to the structural member. A set of horizontal-vibration-absorbing leaf springs extends in one horizontal plane while a set of vertical-vibration-absorbing leaf springs extends in another horizontal plane. A weight is mounted on the distal end of each leaf spring. The relative positions of the leaf springs in their respective planes are staggered around a vertical axis.

Abstract: An apparatus for exposing the fibrous reinforcements of a fiber reinforced resin body comprises at least one stage in which a portion of the resin body is brought into contact with a heated resin removing liquid while the resin body is vibrated. According to this apparatus subsequent processing of the resin body, e.g., connecting to another similarly treated resin body, can be advantageously conducted by utilizing the exposed fibrous reinforcement.
