A welding jig for holding a motorcycle fuel tank when the fuel tank is welded includes a plurality of attachments for holding said fuel tank through resilient bodies. The plurality of attachments have springs hold the outer plate of a fuel tank, and an inner jig positions an inner plate. The attachments are attached to clamp arms which are opened/closed by cylinders. When the overlap portion between the outer and inner plates is welded, the thermal deformation caused by welding is accommodated by the springs. The attachments are spaced from the fuel tank in the order in which the welding point is approached.

An image forming apparatus includes: an image bearing member for bearing a toner image; a belt for conveying the toner image; and a transfer device for rubbing the belt, and a surface of the transfer device, which is brought into contact with the belt includes linear concave portions or linear convex portions. The image forming apparatus of the present invention prevents a friction force between the belt and the transfer device rubbing the belt from increasing and brings a transfer member into a stable contact with the belt for conveying the toner image, thereby suppressing increase in drive torque of the belt which rubs the transfer device and suppressing occurrence of image failure.

Objective sequence data (10) which is primary sequence information on an objective protein is entered in an interaction site predicting device by the user. A secondary structure prediction simulation is executed on the objective sequence data (10) entered for secondary structure prediction programs (20a to 20d) that predict a secondary structure of a protein from primary sequence information of the protein. Results of secondary structure prediction (30a to 30d) from the respective secondary structure prediction programs (20a to 20d) are compared (60). Based on the comparison result, frustration of a local portion in the primary sequence information of the objective protein is calculated (70). An interaction site of the objective protein is predicted from the calculated frustration of the local portion (80).

A slowly advancing tape-shaped matrix is pressed into contact with a surface of a rapidly rotating non-magnetic substrate for a magnetic recording medium. An abrasive slurry is added to the matrix. The area contact rate between the matrix and the surface, as well as the contact pressure per unit area between the matrix and the surface are regulated to both polish and slightly roughen the surface in a single process. In the case of a glass presubstrate, the glass is chemically strengthened before being surface-treated.

A nondestructive inspection apparatus includes a vibrating section 11 which is adapted to be placed in pressure contact with a surface of a measuring object 16 for generating an acoustic elastic wave W, a receiving section 12 for receiving a reflected wave, a pushing mechanism 13 for pushing the vibrating section and the receiving section against the measuring object, a pushing force measurement section 14 for detecting pushing forces Fa, Fb during vibration, a vibration control section 10 for driving the vibrating section, and a reception signal processing section 15 for determining the internal defect based on a reception signal R. The reception signal processing section includes a reflection energy calculation section for calculating a reflection energy level due to elasticity vibration of the measuring object, a reflection energy correction section for normalizing the reflection energy level by the pushing force to calculate a correction value; and an internal defect determination section for detecting the internal defect based on the correction value. With this arrangement, the absolute reflection energy level of the reflected wave is determined through comparison, thereby making it possible to improve the evaluation accuracy of the internal defect to a substantial extent.

A receiving apparatus is provided for receiving a serial signal composed of a sequence of signals transmitted through a transmission medium. In the receiving apparatus, a receiving circuit receives as a received signal a serial signal, which is a sequence of signals including at least one of a synchronizing signal and an information signal, and which includes a plurality of signals being the same as each other and being apart from each other by a predetermined time interval. Then, a delaying circuit generates a delayed signal by delaying the received signal by the predetermined time interval, and a multiplying circuit generates a multiplied signal by multiplying the received signal by the delayed signal. Finally, a detecting circuit detects at least one of the synchronizing signal and the information signal, based on the multiplied signal.

An acoustic wave transmission system comprises an acoustic wave generating metal tubular member for converting information about the bottom of a borehole, which is obtained by a bottom hole sensor, into an acoustic wave. The acoustic wave generating metal tubular member includes a acoustic wave generating mechanism having at least a magnetostrictive oscillator which is mounted in a recess formed in an outer wall of the acoustic wave generating metal tubular member, and on which a compressive load is imposed by means of a pre-load mechanism using a vise. The magnetostrictive oscillator is constructed of a stack of thin plates each made of a metal magnetostrictive material having a property of increasing its dimensions when magnetized, the thin plates being bonded together by a heat-resistant adhesive. The magnetostrictive oscillator can thus have a buckling strength large enough to resist the compressive load imposed thereon by the pre-load mechanism and a stress due to a strain caused in itself. The acoustic wave generating metal tubular member further includes an excitation current supplier for supplying either a rectangular, sinusoidal, or triangular alternating excitation current modulated with the information about the bottom of the borehole and having a frequency that is half the carrier frequency of the acoustic wave, or a series of excitation pulses modulated with the information about the bottom of the borehole and having a pulse repetition rate that is equal to the carrier frequency of the acoustic wave, to an excitation winding wound around the magnetostrictive oscillator.

A nondestructive testing apparatus is provided with a wave transmitter by a metal-based magnetostrictive vibrator, a magnetically excited current feeding device for feeding the magnetically excited current to the magnetostrictive vibrator, a wave receiver for detecting an acoustic elastic wave propagating through the measurement object, a filter for extracting a signal in a target frequency band to be measured, and an automatically amplifying rate controlling function-equipped amplifier for automatically controlling the amplifying rate so as to obtain a given magnitude amplitude regardless of the magnitude of the reflection wave or the transmission wave detected by the wave receiver, which constitute a feedback loop. The apparatus is further provided with a signal processor for processing the signal detected by the above-described wave receiver, and a display device for displaying the process result obtained by the signal waveform detected by the above-described wave receiver or the above-described signal processor.
