    摘要: This invention provides a method for expanding at least a portion of a cylindrical sidewall of a generally cylindrically shaped, electrically responsive, metallic body. This method comprises the steps of retaining at least a first portion of the metallic body, disposing a coil of electrically conductive material inside the metallic body, and energizing the coil to create an electromagnetic force sufficient to expand at least a portion of the generally cylindrical sidewalls of the metallic body outwardly of the original generally cylindrical shape. During such expansion, a fluid is introduced between the coil and the inside surfaces of the container to maintain positive gauge pressure as the sidewalls expand. This invention also provides an apparatus for expanding at least a portion of a cylindrical sidewall of a generally cylindrically shaped, electrically responsive, metallic body. The apparatus comprises a retaining mechanism for holding the metallic body, a coil of electrically conductive material, structure for disposing the coil inside the metallic body, and structure for energizing the coil sufficient to expand at least a portion of the sidewall of the metallic body. Means for maintaining positive gauge pressure during expansion is also included in the apparatus.

    摘要: An essentially flat "arc-grained" surface of a sheet of aluminum alloy is produced with a coarse and non-uniform microstructure which, after it is coated with a durable phosphate-free coating, provides excellent lithoplate. Though such arc-grained microstructure is much coarser than an electrochemically etched surface typically used on lithoplate, the very coarse surface is peculiarly well-adapted to provide durable lithoplate after it is coated with a phosphate-free protective surface. After the coated surface is coated with a photoresist the excellent resolution of prints is maintained over a large number of repeated uses in an off-set printing press. A method of producing lithoplate comprises, controlledly rastering an A-C, or D-C reverse polarity plasma-generating electric arc on an aluminum sheet less than 30 mils thick, kept distortion-free on a mounted surface such as on a cylindrical drum; then coating the arc-grained surface with a hard and durable, inert phosphate-free coating while maintaining a capillary microstructure in the surface adapted to provide a support for a photoresist for use in lithographic printing of adequate resolution.

    摘要: A method of coating a vehicle wheel to increase wear and corrosion resistance of the vehicle wheel, includes the steps of providing a vehicle wheel and applying a wear and corrosion resistant coating onto a surface of the vehicle wheel. The coating is applied to at least a tire bead retaining flange of the vehicle wheel. The coating is of particular use with vehicle wheels made of forged aluminum. The coating is selected from tungsten carbide, optionally including cobalt or chrome, a nickel-based superalloy, aluminum and silicon carbide, or stainless steel.The coating is typically applied to a thickness of about 0.004-0.01 inch. The surface of the vehicle wheel may be prepared by mechanically abrading the surface or chemically etching the surface of the vehicle wheel. The coating may be applied by cold spraying, thermal spraying, or triboelectric discharge kinetic spraying and other similar processes.

    摘要: Substantial surface areas can be treated by continuously magnetically moving an electric arc around a general loop direction such as a circle, ellipse or oval and moving the surface so that the arc treats a substantial surface area. The arc treatment can be used to clean or increase surface area, or both, and a reactant or treatment agent can be brought to the arc contact site to alter the surface treated with the arc. Auxiliary treatments for the surface can precede or follow the arc treatment, or both. The invention produces very desirable surface properties including a mild roughness or matte condition suitable even for critical applications such as aluminum lithoplate. Other surface characteristics can include one or more of: capillarity, adhesion, emissivity, stable oxide, paintability, and others. Applications and advantages are believed to include lithoplate, hydrophilic heat exchanger finstock, capacitor foil, can sheet, venetian blind stock, adhesive bonded laminates and other bonded structural materials or structures, welding rod, aluminum brazing sheet, interrogatable strips for optical control instruments, enhanced, high current contacts, improved, controlled or differential friction characteristics for forming and shaping, automotive and other sheet, hot roll bonding, galvanizing and zinc coating of steel, texturing mill rolls, pretreatment for thermal spray treatments, organic coating adhesion, improved paint hiding performance, prosthetics, biohost or catalyst support and others. The process is applicable to aluminum, steel and other metals and other materials capable of carrying current sufficiently to maintain an electric arc.
