Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Verbinden von Formkörpern, Profilen und dergleichen aus vernetzten, teilvernetzten bzw. ultrahochmolekularen polymeren Materialien. Dabei werden die Fügeflächen der Formkörper/Profile durch Wärmezuführung von außen bis zum Schmelzpunkt der kristallinen Polymerbestandteile erhitzt. Unmittelbar danach wird auf die aufgeschmolzenen Fügeflächen eine mit dem Basispolymeren verträgliche Polymerbeschichtung aufgebracht. Danach werden die beschichteten Fügeflächen der Formkörper/Profile durch Wärmezuführung von außen aufgeschmolzen und unter Anwendung von Pressdruck miteinander verschweißt.

An improved welded joint is provided for use with overlapping strap portions. Parts of the thickness of each strap portion are merged together to define a continuous joint region. The joint region further includes a plurality of encapsulated cavities distributed at least in the end portions of the joint region.
Abstract:
Un dispositif de transfert de fluide (10) comprend un corps fusible (14) possédant un alésage axial (16) et une section transversale généralement constante sur toute la longueur axiale de l'alésage. Une zone d'absorption d'énergie radiante (30) est formée dans le corps. En réaction à l'application d'énergie radiante, la zone fond pour former une ouverture (41) dans le corps qui s'étend radialement dans l'alésage. Un des dispositifs peut être utilisé pour former un joint d'étanchéité amovible pour une source de fluide. Deux dispositifs peuvent être couplés entre eux, leurs zones absorbant l'énergie radiante se trouvant alors en contact face à face. En focalisant l'énergie radiante sur les zones en vis-à-vis, on peut former un cheminement de fluide entre les dispositifs couplés. On peut exécuter des connexions répétées en utilisant la même paire de dispositifs, dont la longueur totale devient de plus en plus courte après chaque connexion, ce qui rend le dispositif plus compact.
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a flow sensor that makes it possible to detect temperature abnormalities that the flow sensor has been exposed to and the time history of the flow sensor in a high-temperature environment from an externally visible cover material and that uses a cover material for which the laser welding quality can be guaranteed through visual inspection when the sensor is delivered as a product and even if the sensor is used in an abnormal state. A flow sensor provided with a housing, a cover, a circuit chamber that houses a wiring portion sealed between the housing and the cover, and an auxiliary passage through which the liquid to be sensed flows, wherein: a joint portion formed on the housing and a joint portion formed on the inner surface of the cover are joined together through the laser welding; the main material of the cover is a crystalline resin; the cover includes an amorphous alloy; and the cover is made to have a natural color.
Abstract:
Provided are a method for producing a composite molded body, and a composite molded body by the method, wherein: (1) at least one of preforms (a) and (b) which are made of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resins contains reinforcing fibers having a weight average fiber length of 1 mm or more; (2) a thermoplastic resin (A) is used for the preform (a) and the thermoplastic resin (A) or a thermoplastic resin (B) is used for the preform (b); (3) a thin film of a thermoplastic resin (C) is formed on the surface of either the preform (a) or (b), or on the surfaces of both of the preforms (a) and (b); and (4) the resin (C) and a part of the preforms (a) and (b) are molten by heating while the resin (C) is placed at the boundary surface of the joint, to join the preforms (a) and (b). By setting the crystallization speed of the thermoplastic resin (C) to be relatively slow so that the resin (C) contacts the surfaces of the preforms (a) and (b) at a molten condition for a longer period, a high-strength joint between the preforms (a) and (b) can be achieved.
