Abstract:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING A METAL-TO-CERAMIC JUNCTION INCLUDES THE STEPS OF DEPOSITING AN ADHESIVE LAYER ON A CERAMIC BODY ON A SURFACE PORTION THEREOF WHERE THE JUNCTION IS TO BE MADE, AND DEFORMING THE METAL AGAINST THE BODY AT THE LOCATION OF THE SURFACE PORTION AT A RELATIVELY HIGH SPEED AND WITH A RELATIVELY STRONG FORCE.
Abstract:
An insulator to metal hermetic seal for electronic components and methods of making the hermetic seal. The hermetic seal may be a glass to metal or a ceramic to metal seal. The terminal member of the seal, whether glass to metal or ceramic to metal, may include a metal selected from the low-carbon steels, the Group I metals (copper, silver and gold, or alloys thereof or clad materials thereof), the Group VIII metals (nickel, palladium and platinum or alloys thereof or clad materials thereof), ironnickel-cobalt alloys or clad materials thereof, nickel-iron alloys or clad materials thereof, chromium-iron alloys or clad materials thereof or a metal from any one of the film-forming metals which can form an electrolytic oxide film such as tantalum, aluminum, niobium, titanium, zirconium alloys thereof or clad materials thereof. The glass member may include any one of the borosilicate, potash-soda-barium, potash-soda-lead, sodalime or aluminia-silicate glasses. The ceramic member may include any one of alumina, steatite, fosterite, or beryllia.
Abstract:
A door closure operating assembly, particularly for a door of an automotive vehicle body, including a fastening element with a locking member and a handle pivotable about an axis extending in a substantially vertical direction operatively engaging with the fastening element, wherein a depression is formed in a door panel in the region of attachment of the handle such that the handle lies flush with the major portion of the door panel when the handle is in a closed position.
