A cartridge gun is provided. The cartridge gun comprises a cartridge holder, a plurality of resilient gripping elements, a displaceable piston rod for moving a piston in a cartridge, and an actuating device for displacing the piston rod. The cartridge holder comprises a cylindrical base for receiving the floor region of the cartridge in which the gripping elements project radially outwardly from the center of the cartridge holder in the direction towards the housing into an annular groove of the base up to the outside wall of the annular groove in the base and are held in the center of the base by means of a hub. Means are further arranged at the front end of the piston rod which are designated to press the ends of the resilient gripping elements in the direction towards the housing when the piston rod is fully retracted, allowing the removal of the cartridge from the cartridge gun.

A road grader comprising an elongated grader blade adapted to be pushed by a vehicle such as a bulldozer and having mutually parallel side members attached to the lateral ends of the blade perpendicularly to the blade's longitudinal axis, each of said side members comprising a pair of spaced apart walls that house a slidable mounting plate on the lower end of which is attached a ground contacting skid. Each slidable mounting plate is separately actuated to move upwardly or downwardly with respect to the side member in which it is housed. Relative upward or downward movement of the side member, with respect to the ground contacting skid, results in lowering or elevating the respective ends of the grader blade with respect to the level of the respective ground contacting skid. Separately adjusting the height of the lateral ends of the grader blade and driving the blade by a pushing vehicle permits the precision depth application of a layer of road material at any desired angle or tilt.

The invention relates to a new preparation technique of composites, in details, i.e. a method of producing laminated composite materials of different alloys. In the preparation method, the bi-layer or multi-layer composites are prepared by means of the equal channel angular extrusion/pressure (ECAE/ECAP). Firstly, the appropriate alloys pairs or groups are selected, and the rational arrangements are carried out after pre-treating surfaces; then, the clad process is performed by extrusion and shear deformation in ECAE die; finally, the composite material is produced after one single pass or multiple passes clad extrusion. The annealing treatment can be performed subsequently to enhance the interfacial bonding strength by diffusion after the clad extrusion, and the heat treatment parameters consist of annealing temperature and holding time, which are chosen carefully to meet the demands of the refining microstructures and good properties for both the interfaces and individual component metals. Consequently, the layer-metal composite is produced with the firmly bonding interface, good microstructures and excellent properties. In the invention, the selection and assembling manners of the materials are very free, such as composites with bi-layer or interval multi-layer manners, and the method is suitable for most of the metal materials. The invention is a new method of fabricating composites and the preparation cost is low enough to meet the demand of large-scale industrial production.

A plasma etching method for processing a substrate material, wherein a deposition process (S09) that uses a deposition gas as a process and an etching process (S11) that uses an etching gas as a process gas are alternately and repeatedly executed, thereby etching a substrate material, and a vacuuming process (S10, S13) is interposed between the two processes so that the process gas which has just finished being used is expelled out when the process gases are switched. Thus, the etching gas and the deposition gas do not mix during each process, thereby accurately creating a high-aspect-ratio recessed and protruding pattern on the surface of a substrate material.
