A flow sensor includes an auxiliary channel having an opening into which a fluid to be measured is taken; a sensor element that measures the flow of the fluid to be measured; a housing that accommodates electronic parts; and a resin cover. The flow sensor is configured such that junctions of the housing and the cover are formed in locations where first target weld portions, which are formed so that the circuit chamber is surrounded, face each other and second target weld portions, which are disposed for additional reinforcement of the joints, face each other on a bonding face of the housing and a bonding face of the cover with a step being provided. The positioning of the housing and the cover is determined, and the first target weld portions are welded to each other and second target weld portions are welded to each other by way of laser radiation.

Provided is a base (1) for a flexible mold, including: a glass sheet (2); a resin sheet (3); and a bonding layer (4) configured to bond the glass sheet (2) and the resin sheet (3) to each other, wherein the resin sheet (3) protrudes from the glass sheet (2).

A deposition assembly generally comprises a first deposition apparatus that is configured to receive a substrate, such as a glass mandrel. The first deposition apparatus is further configured to deposit a plurality of first monolayer molecules onto at least a surface of the substrate to generate a first coating structure on the substrate. A second deposition apparatus is coupled to the first deposition apparatus, and wherein the second deposition apparatus is configured to deposit a plurality of second monolayer molecules onto at least the surface of the substrate such that the second monolayer molecules are diffused through the first coating structure and at least one aperture is filled by at least one of the second monolayer molecules to generate at least one mold release layer on at least the surface of the substrate.

The present invention relates to a production machine for the production of collapsible pouches, which comprises an impulse sealing device with a first jaw and a second jaw for contacting bottom regions of walls of the pouches. Each jaw comprises a susceptor element comprising electrically conductive material, having a front surface that is at least shaped as an inverted T for sealing side edges and at least a portion of bottom edges of two adjacent interconnected pouches. Each jaw comprises an inductor which is electrically insulated from the respective susceptor element. The machine comprises a high frequency electric current source, which is connected to the inductors. At least one of the jaws comprises a cooling device for cooling down the respective inductor and susceptor element. The machine is configured so that, in an impulse sealing cycle for sealing the bottom regions of the pouch walls, the electric current source is operated to temporarily feed a high frequency electric current to the inductors, thereby generating a high frequency electromagnetic field with the inductors. The high frequency electromagnetic field induces eddy currents in the respective susceptor element generating an impulse of heat that is emitted by the susceptor element, which impulses of heat seal the bottom regions of the pouch walls to each other.
