A safety valve of the invention including a cleavable groove is provided in a battery case of a sealed battery containing a power generating element inside. The cleavable groove is partly formed with a measuring groove having a width wider than other portions. Even if other portions of the cleavable groove have fairly small groove width, a groove width of the cleavable groove can be obtained and determined the quality by measuring a groove width of the measuring groove. Thereby, a safety valve and a manufacturing method thereof, a sealed battery and a manufacturing method thereof, a vehicle, and a battery mounting device are provided to achieve less variation of valve opening pressure and stable product quality, as well as reliably assure the good quality.

A door includes an apparatus for reducing smoke associated therewith. The door is particularly advantageous in reducing smoke in a fire to thereby allow a firefighter or a victim trapped in a fire to readily indentify an exit. The door includes a nozzle or plurality of nozzles mounted upon the door, with a liquid source connected to the nozzle. Preferably, the door additionally includes a supply of pressurized water therein, with a surface active agent in an amount of 0.1 to 3,000 ppm disposed in the supply of pressurized water

The invention provides an aluminum based alloy consisting essentially of the formula Al.sub.bal Fe.sub.a X.sub.b, wherein X is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Zn, Co, Ni, Cr, Mo, V, Zr, Ti, Y and Ce, "a" ranges from about 7-15 wt %, "b" ranges from about 2-10 wt % and the balance is aluminum. The alloy has a predominately microeutectic microstructure. The invention also provides a method and apparatus for forming rapidly solidifed metal, such as the metal alloys of the invention, within an ambient atmosphere. Generally stated, the apparatus includes a moving casting surface which has a quenching region for solidifying molten metal thereon. A reservoir holds molten metal and has orifice means for depositing a stream of molten metal onto the casting surface quenching region. A heating mechanism heats the molten metal contained within the reservoir, and a gas source provides a non-reactive gas atmosphere at the quenching region to minimize oxidation of the deposited metal. A conditioning mechanism disrupts a moving gas boundary layer carried along by the moving casting surface to minimize disturbances of the molten metal stream that would inhibit quenching of the molten metal on the casting surface at a quench rate of at least about 10.sup.6 .degree. C./sec. Particles composed of the alloys of the invention can be heated in a vacuum and compacted to form a conslidated metal article have high strength and good ductility at both room temperature and at elevated temperatures of about 350.degree. C. The consolidated article is composed of an aluminum solid solution phase containing a substantially uniform distribution of dispersed intermetallic phase precipitates therein. These precipitates are fine intermetallics measuring less than about 100 nm in all dimensions thereof.

A method for fabricating relatively dense monoliths of superconducting material and relatively dense composite monoliths of superconducting material and binder material. The method includes the steps of placing the material to be processed in a die. A relatively high pressure is then applied to the material. Substantially simultaneously, an electrical discharge is applied to the material. The discharge is of a relatively high voltage and current density to provide sharp bonding while maintaining the superconducting properties of the material in the monolith product. A product fabricated by the present method is also described.
