To a fulcrum roll unit portion in a workpiece, a corresponding initial curvature radius is applied, and to a bending roll unit portion in a workpiece, a corresponding design curvature radius is applied. To an intermediate unit portion in a workpiece, an intermediate curvature radius set so as to continuously change from the initial curvature radius to the design curvature radius is applied. At least one of the fulcrum roll and the bending roll is moved on the basis of an integrated value obtained by integrating the amount of change in bending position in each of the intermediate unit portion and the bending roll unit portion.

A battery module includes a plurality of cylindrical battery cells respectively having electrode terminals formed at an upper portion and a lower portion thereof; a module housing including an accommodation portion having a plurality of hollow structures in which the plurality of cylindrical battery cells are inserted and accommodated; and a module bus bar including a first metal plate having a body portion located at an upper portion or a lower portion of the plurality of cylindrical battery cells to extend in a horizontal direction and a plurality of connection portions configured to extend in a horizontal direction from one side of the body portion to contact the electrode terminals of the plurality of cylindrical battery cells, and a second metal plate bonded to the body portion of the first metal plate and having a metal with a relatively higher electric conductivity than the first metal plate.

A forming roller adjustment system has a shaft, a key, a roller and a ring. The key fits into a keyway in the shaft and has a projecting portion that projects outwardly from the shaft. The projecting portion includes spaced, transverse channels. The ring is rotatably attached to the roller. The roller and ring each have a shaft aperture that receives the shaft, and a keyway that receives the projecting portion of the key. The ring fits into the channels in the projecting portion of the key. When the keyways on the ring and roller are aligned, the roller is movable along the shaft. When the ring is aligned with one of the channels in the projecting portion of the key and rotated into the channel, the roller is axially locked on the shaft.

A bumper beam made of at least one roll formed steel sheet is described. The bumper beam contains an upper beam and a lower beam extending in a transversal direction, the upper beam and the lower beam each having a closed cross-section defined by a front wall, a rear wall, an upper wall and a lower wall, the upper wall and the lower wall joining the front wall to the rear wall, and a central wall extending between the front walls, the rear walls of the upper beam and of the lower beam forming both the lower wall of the upper beam and the upper wall of the lower beam, the central wall extending in at least two different planes.

Disclosed herein is a light-gauge, ultra-high strength weathering steel pile for use as a steel foundation in structures such as, for example, solar arrangements. The light-gauge, ultra-high strength weathering steel pile comprises a thickness of 2.5 mm or less that has been cold roll formed into a steel pile having a web and a pair of opposing flanges, each having discontinuities formed therein. The steel pile further comprises a yield strength of between 700 and 1600 MPa, a tensile strength of between 1000 and 2100 MPa, and an elongation of between 1% and 10%.

Disclosed herein is a light-gauge, ultra-high strength weathering steel sheet with a composition, material properties, and surface characteristics that make it suitable for hot-stamping applications and making hot-stamped products. Also disclosed herein is a high friction rolled carbon alloy steel strip free of prior austenite grain boundary depressions and having a smear pattern. Still further disclosed herein is a high friction rolled carbon alloy steel strip that has been surface homogenized to provide a thin cast steel strip free of a smear pattern.

In a method for manufacturing a composite cross-section member, a continuous steel sheet is fed to a manufacturing device and bent and roll-formed into a predetermined cross-sectional shape, a discontinuous aluminum core is locally inserted at an arbitrary stage of the roll forming, and the steel sheet is bent such that the core and the steel sheet are integrated, to obtain a composite cross-section member.
