An absolute position measuring apparatus includes a first rotary encoder that detects a rotation of a spindle as a phase signal which varies in a first cycle and a second rotary encoder that detects the rotation of the spindle as another phase signal which varies in a second cycle. A rotation of a first rotor of the first rotary encoder is transmitted to a second rotor via a relay gear that is meshed with a first gear provided on an outer circumference of a first rotary cylinder and a second gear provided on an outer circumference of a second rotary cylinder. Thus, an absolute position of the spindle is calculated on the basis of two phase signals that are different in cycle. Further, it is not necessary to provide a conventionally-known spiral key groove so that the apparatus can be easily downsized. Manufacturing costs can be also reduced.

A back-plunger type displacement detecting apparatus is provided having a thinner case. The back-plunger type displacement detecting apparatus has a spindle secured to the case to extend perpendicular to the display surface of a digital display unit. A movable member is secured to the case and extends perpendicular to the direction of movement of the spindle. A converting mechanism converts the displacement of the spindle into displacement of the movable member. An electrical unit detects the displacement of the movable member and displays the detected value on the digital display unit.
摘要:
A two-step process for coating a surface of an aluminum article with zinc, wherein the surface is initially exposed to a zincate bath under relatively weak zinc-depositing conditions, and then further exposed to a zincate bath under stronger zinc-depositing conditions (lower ZnO concentration and/or higher temperature), to establish thereon an adherent coating of metallic zinc. The coated article may be heated to effect diffusion of the zinc into the aluminum for producing a zinc-enriched region adjacent the surface to protect the surface against corrosion.
