Abstract: A manufacturing machine manufactures a heat-source rod having a rod-like extrusion-molded article made from a combustible material with axial grooves in the cylindrical surface thereof and a heat-insulating web enveloping the article, and is provided with a apparatus 10 for spouting water to the web W in the process of the web W being fed to a wrapping section 4. The spout apparatus 10 includes an air vibrator 12 with a vibrating rod 34, and a flexible nozzle 36 attached to the rod 34 to extend across the rod 34 and supplied with water from a rate regulating pump 42. While the web W is being fed, the end of the nozzle 36 spouts water to the web W, reciprocating widthways relative to the web W due to vibration of the rod 34, and the water spouted dissolves a binder used in the web W to bind heat-insulating fiber, thereby forming a wet band H, where the wet band H has a waveform continuing along the longitudinal direction of the web W and provides a adhesive region for bonding the article.

Abstract: Apparatus for manufacturing a carbonaceous heat source chip, capable of drying an extrusion-molded carbonaceous heat source rod to proper hardness and supplying the same to a heat insulating material-wrapping device. The apparatus includes a hollow pipe that forms a conveying path for transporting the carbonaceous heat source rod continuously extrusion-molded by an extrusion molding machine, to the heat insulating material-wrapping device. The apparatus forms an airflow running through the hollow pipe by means of an air amplifier, and transports the carbonaceous heat source rod while drying the rod by using the airflow.

Abstract: An improved magnus measuring apparatus for providing an automatic initial setting at high speed in testing a plurality of biological specimens which moves elastically with beats, wherein a tensile force is applied on a specimen by moving the transducer connected thereto with use of a motor to be driven and stopped under the control of a control unit, and thereby the rotating speed of the motor is increased gradually at least for a predetermined period of time from the start and then kept at high speed for bringing a bottom value of the tensile force to enter an extent of preliminarily set initial value.
