Abstract: An induction heating apparatus for controlling the temperature distribution for heating a metal plate irrespective if it has a small thickness, is magnetic or nonmagnetic, and capable of coping with a change in the width of the plate, or meandering of the plate.

Abstract: An induction heating apparatus for heating a traveling metal plate includes an induction coil for surrounding the metal plate. The induction coil includes an upper induction coil for being located above the metal plate and a lower induction coil for being located below the metal plate. The upper and lower induction coils are spaced from each other in a longitudinal direction of the metal plate a constant distance across a transverse direction of the metal plate. Each of the upper induction coil and the lower induction coil is arranged obliquely at an edge area of the metal plate so as to form an oblique angle with the transverse direction of the metal plate.

Abstract: The present invention: relates to a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet and a double-oriented electrical steel sheet which are used as soft magnetic materials for electrical machinery and apparatus; and is a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet extremely excellent in film adhesiveness, characterized by: containing, in mass, 2.5 to 4.5% Si, 0.01 to 0.4% Ti, and not more than 0.005% as to each of C, N, S and O, with the balance substantially consisting of Fe and unavoidable impurities; and having films comprising compounds of C with Ti or Ti and one or more of Nb, Ta, V, Hf, Zr, Mo, Cr and W on the surfaces of said steel sheet, and a method for producing the steel sheet.

Abstract: An oil temperature responsive hydraulic control system for an automatic transmission includes a hydraulic servo for applying/releasing a frictional engagement element; a pressure regulator valve for regulating oil pressure fed to the hydraulic servo; and a signal pressure oil passage for applying a pressure regulating signal pressure to the pressure regulator valve. A control valve is arranged in the signal pressure oil passage for changing the effective diameter of the signal pressure oil passage responsive to change in oil temperature.
