A blood-vessel-shape measuring apparatus that can accurately measures a shape of a section of a blood vessel is provided.A blood-vessel-shape calculating means 62 calculates, based on respective echo signals detected by first and second arrays 26, 28 that are placed on a skin 20 of a brachial portion 14 as a portion of a living being such that each of the first and second arrays 26, 28 is across a brachial artery 18 located under the skin 20, respective positions of respective portions of the arterial wall that are located right below the first and second arrays 26, 28 and correspond to supersonic-wave elements 26n of the first array 26 and supersonic-wave elements 28n of the second array 28, and calculates, based on the respective positions of the respective portions of the arterial wall that correspond to the supersonic-wave elements 26n, 28n, a shape of the brachial artery 18 on an orthogonal section thereof. Thus, even if the brachial artery 18 may run, under the skin 20, in a direction that is not orthogonal to the first or second array 26, 28 or is not parallel to the skin 20, an accurate sectional shape of the brachial artery 18 can be obtained.

Provided is a method of manufacturing a sequential segment joining type stator coil for use in an electric rotating machine, capable of achieving satisfactory electrical and thermal contact between end tip portion pairs of segments and basal electrodes and of realizing suitable welding even in the alignment of a large number of end tip portion pairs. For the arc welding of the end tip portion pairs of a sequential segment joining type stator coil, a large number of end tip portion pairs adjoining each other in a radial direction are held and pressed between basal electrode blocks. At this time, a circular-arc-like auxiliary electrode is put in a radial spacing between the end tip portion pairs. This not only enables the feeding to the end tip portion pairs lying at an intermediate position in the radial direction but also stabilizes the positions of the end tip portion pairs, and even reduces the heat radiation to an insulating coat of end skewing portions extending from the proximal portions of each end tip portion pair.

A tail side coil end includes a plurality of tail conductor pairs sequentially disposed with predetermined radial gaps. The radial gaps between the conductor pairs are widened in the vicinity of their tail joint portions compared with those in the vicinity of the end surface of a stator core. This arrangement effectively prevents adjacent tail joint portions or adjacent slanting portions from undesirably contacting with each other, thereby adequately maintaining electric insulation between the tail conductor pairs and also improving the space factor of the slot.

A method for controlling the air-fuel ratio in a carburetor which prevents fuel from flowing into an air bleed passage at nearly fully closed position of the tapered needle valve fitted with the air bleed passage by controlling the step motor connected to the needle valve so as to maintain the minimum amount of bleed air at a constant level. In another aspect, at nearly fully closed position of the needle valve, this invention is effective to prevent fuel from flowing into the air bleed passage by continously driving the step motor in a direction of its fully closed position to axially vibrate the needle valve so that the minimum amount of bleed air may be maintained at a constant level. In a further aspect, at nearly fully closed position of the needle valve, this invention is effective to determine the relation between the amount of stroke of the needle valve and the amount of bleed air to flat characteristics by continuously driving the step motor in a direction of the fully closed position of the needle valve so that the minimum amount of bleed air may be maintained at such a level that the fuel is prevented from flowing into the air bleed passage.
