Abstract: A vehicle door includes a beam, an inner panel, a lever lock bracket, and a beam bracket. The beam extends inside the vehicle door in a front-rear direction of a vehicle. The inner panel includes an inner plate. The lever lock bracket is configured to restrict an operation of the door latch mechanism when contact from a side of the vehicle occurs. The beam bracket includes a front vertical wall surface and a rear vertical wall surface. The lever lock bracket is disposed on a vehicle front side of the beam bracket. The rear vertical wall surface of the beam bracket is provided toward an outer side in a vehicle width direction of the vehicle. The front vertical wall surface of the beam bracket includes an inclined surface inclined on the vehicle front side toward the outer side in the vehicle width direction.

Abstract: A method for vitrification of waste to reduce the formation of persistent secondary phases comprising separating at least one glass frit constituent from an initial glass frit to form a modified glass frit. The waste, modified glass frit, and the at least one glass frit constituent are mixed together with the modified glass frit and the at least one glass frit constituent being added as separate components. The resulting mixture is vitrified.

Abstract: A method for vitrification of high level waste to reduce the formation of persistent secondary phases comprising the steps of providing a high level waste for vitrification; providing a glass frit additive for mixing with said high level waste; redistributing selected constituents of said glass frit for mixing separately as raw chemicals with said high level waste; and, feeding said high level waste, said glass frit additive, and the redistributed glass frit constituents to a melter for vitrification of said high level waste so that formation of secondary phases is suppressed.

Abstract: A contact piece for a rotary encoder is an unitary piece having a terminal, a thin plate spring, and a bent-back section on the tip of the thin plate spring. The bent-back section is bent at an angle of approximately 180 degrees in the plane. The contact brush is located on the bent-back section. In one embodiment, the terminal, thin plate spring, bent-back section and contact brush are stamped from the same metal plate. In another embodiment, the terminal, thin plate spring and bent-back section are stamped from the same metal plate and a separate contact brush is connected to the bent-back section. The contact piece is pushed in from the bottom side of the rotary encoder housing, and the contact brush is set such that contact is made with an electrode pattern. When a rotating plate turns, a pulse having a low or high signal is generated. This configuration provides the rotary encoder with an adequately long span S, which can be precisely set and easily produced.
