  • Patent number: 6288363
    Abstract: A machining head of a laser machining apparatus comprises a main assist gas nozzle at the center portion of the machining head for supplying a main assist gas and one or more annular sub assist gas nozzles surrounding the main assist gas nozzle, whose jet outlet of the innermost diameter is larger or equal to the jet outlet of main assist gas. The jet outlet of the main assist gas nozzle is positioned at upstream of said jet outlets of the respective sub assist gas nozzle. According to the above construction, the jet gas pressure and the jet gas velocity vary continuously at the assist gas jet outlet and the jet gas pressure and flow velocity fluctuation of the main assist gas are increased.

  • Patent number: 6076598
    Abstract: An opposed flow heat exchanger comprising partitions including a corrugated portion for forming passages in a wavefront direction, and flat portions for taking in or out air flows from a predetermined direction at opposite ends of the corrugated portion in the wavefront direction; and flat shape holding plates having a length in a direction of the passages which is not longer than a length of the partitions; wherein the partitions and the shape holding plates are alternately layered so that the corrugated portion of each of the partitions and the shape holding plates contact together, and the flat portion of each of the partitions faces to the flat portion of a partition adjacent thereto, thereby independently forming the passages through the partitions.

  • Patent number: 6032730
    Abstract: A heat exchanger, in which an alternating flow of supply air and exhaust air are supplied in opposite directions between a plurality of stacked heat exchanging members, is characterized in that the heat exchanging members each is composed of a first paper member having a moisture permeability and corrugated in the width direction and having flat portions at the longitudinally opposite ends flattened under pressure, and a pair of second paper members having one end joined to the flat portions and the other end side extending flatly in the longitudinal direction to define a header defining portion for defining a header portion, so that the number of the parts can be decreased and the assembly can be made easier, whereby a heat exchanger with an improved productivity can be provided. A method for manufacturing a heat exchanger is also disclosed.
