Abstract:
The present invention provides a new aluminum alloy material which may be used for a core alloy of a corrosion-resistant brazing sheet. This core alloy displays with high strength, and good corrosion resistance for use in heat exchangers. This aluminum alloy material was made by direct chill (DC) casting. The present inventions also provides corrosion-resistant brazing sheet packages including the aluminum alloy material as a core and one or more cladding layers.
Abstract:
A curved part 10 having a hat-shaped cross section is produced by press-forming without causing cracks and wrinkles. When producing a curved part 10, which is made up of a top plate 11, vertical walls 12a and 12b extended in parallel with each other along ridgelines 14a and 14b of the top plate, and outwardly directed flanges 13a and 13b which connect to leading edges of the vertical walls, and has a generally hat-shaped cross section, by press forming, the metal material sheet 601 is interposed and constrained by the die 502 and the blank holder 505 and is press-formed while the metal material sheet 601 being interposed and constrained by the pad 503 and the punch 504.
Abstract:
A sheet material 1 that has a concave-convex part 20 is provided. Using a first reference plane K1, a second reference plane K2, and an intermediate reference plane K3 as a reference, boxes, which are partitioned by a lattice that longitudinally and laterally divides a unit area 23 disposed in the intermediate reference plane K3 into n equal parts, are categorized into first boxes 231 and second boxes 232. The areas in which the first boxes 231 are linked serve as first reference areas 213, and the areas in which the second boxes 232 are linked serve as second reference areas 223. First areas 21, which protrude from the first reference areas 213 toward the first reference plane K1, and second areas 22, which protrude from the second reference areas 213 toward the second reference plane K2, are provided. Each of the first areas comprises a first top surface 211 and first side surfaces 212. Each of the second areas comprises a second top surface 221 and second side surfaces 221.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a nanoprinted device comprising metallic tip-shaped patterns, wherein each metallic pattern has a double-layer structure with controlled hardness and chemical properties including, a lower layer (30) constituting the base of the tip and an upper layer (31) constituting the tip itself.
Abstract:
A metallic resin cover (55) constitutes a portion of an outer wall of a human detection device (50) in which a detection electrode (53D) of a capacitance sensor (53) is provided, and which detects whether a human touches or approaches the human detection device (50). The metallic resin cover (55) includes a covered body (57); and a metal layer (13) that has a metal-object discretely arranged structure in which a plurality of metal objects (13A) are discretely arranged, wherein the metal layer (13) covers an outer surface of the covered body (57).
Abstract:
Friction-stir weldments and systems and methods for producing the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, a metal product includes a first metal plate (114) having a first center-neutral axis (115), a second metal plate (124) comprising a second center-neutral axis (125), and a friction-stir corner weld (12) that connects the first metal plate (114) to the second metal plate (124), where the first center-neutral axis (115) of the first metal plate (114) is transverse to the second center-neutral axis (125) of the second metal plate (115). In another embodiment, a system (150) for producing friction-stir weldments includes a backup anvil (160) having a first supporting face (162) and a second supporting face (164), where the first supporting face (164) is adapted to receive and support the first metal plate (114), and where the second supporting face (162) is adapted to receive and support a second metal plate (124), wherein the center-neutral axis (115) of the first metal plate (114) is transverse to the center-neutral axis (125) of the second metal plate (124).
Abstract:
A novel coating composition is provided for imparting corrosion and wear resistance to metal substrates. The novel coating composition is thermally applied and comprises an aluminum alloy mixed with a hard, inert matrix. The coating composition has found particular use in providing corrosion and wear resistance to metal seat rails used to secure aircrafts seats to the aircraft frame.
