    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for producing melt welds between a plurality of metal parts in which a high frequency current is caused to flow between two areas on opposite sides of the desired melt weld for a time sufficient to melt the metal between such areas, the molten metal then being permitted or caused to cool. The frequency of the current is selected in relation to the characteristics, both electrical and mechanical, of the parts to be welded and so as to provide a current magnitude which will not cause expulsion of the molten metal by reason of the motor effect. The current frequency is selected to be at least high enough to provide an effective resistance of the metal which is at least equal to the contact resistance between the parts. The apparatus may include high temperature insulating material for confining the molten metal, proximity conductor means for influencing the current path and/or magnetic means adjacent the current path for concentrating the current.

    Abstract: Metal parts are welded and heat treated using an electric arc formed between a pair of adjacent parts or between an electrode and a metal part. The arc is traversed over the metal part(s) using a magnetic field. The arc can be initiated, driven by the magnetic field across the parts, extinguished and then reinitiated. Alternatively, the arc can traverse the surfaces of the parts in alternately opposite directions. Uniform heating can be effected to surfaces which are larger than the cross-section of the impinging arc. Discontinuous surfaces can be heated with repeated passes of the arc. The arc may be d.c. or a.c. and the magnetic field may be constant or variable in both magnitude and polarity.

    Abstract: METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR HEATING METAL PARTS WITH MAGNETICALLY DRIVEN TRAVELLING ELECTRIC ARC Methods and apparatus for the welding and heat treating of metal parts in which an electric arc extends between a pair of adjacent metal parts or between an electrode and one or more metal parts with the arc traversing the metal part or parts a plurality of times during the heating cycle. For finite length metal parts, i.e. whenthe surface or surfaces to be heated do not provide closed paths to be followed by the arc, the arc is initiated, caused to follow the surface, extinguished and then reinitiated, ox is caused to traverse the surfaces in alternately opposite directions after initiation. With finite length metal parts, run-off tabs are provided at the ends of the surfaces to prevent overheating at such ends. A magnetic field causes the arc to traverse the surfaces and may be modified in strength or distribution to vary traverse rate. Also, by varying the magnetic field path, by superimposing another magnetic field or by gas pressure, the arc may be caused to follow paths which traverse entire surfaces even though arc cross-section is less than the width of surfaces. The arc may be direct or alternating current and the magnetic field may be constant or variable in both magnitude and polarity. Sensors responsive to arc position may be used to control reversal of direction of arc movement, arc speed, magnetic field, etc.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for modifying the surface properties of a metal part in which electric current having a frequency of at least 3000 Hz is supplied to a narrow area on the part by means of contacts, one at each end of the area, and a proximity conductor or is induced therein by an induction coil until the metal in the area reaches a temperature at least equal to its melting temperature. A material which will alloy with the metal of the part is added to the molten metal so that when the molten metal is cooled an area of an alloy of the metal and the added material is produced. The added material may be in the form of a gas, powder, salt, wire, rod, bar, foil, etc. and may be applied to the area before, during, or after the melting of the metal of the area. The spacing between the proximity conductor or the induction coil and the work is no greater than three times the width of the proximity conductor or the coil conductor.

    Abstract: HIGH FREQUENCY CURRENT WELDING OF METAL STRIP TO A METAL PART Method and apparatus for welding a metal part, e.g. a tube or strip, to a thin, flexible metal strip using high frequency electric currents in which the part and strip are continuously advanced to a weld point where they are pressed together. In advance of the weld point, high frequency current is supplied to the part and the strip through contacts engaging them so that portions thereof are heated to welding temperature by the time they reach the weld point. From the point of engagement of the contact with the strip or strips to the weld point the strip material is maintained in a fixed path by a rigid member against which the strip is pressed by tensioning the strip with a pad frictionally engaging the strip. If desired, the current may be fed to the contact engaging the part through a proximity conductor to increase the heating of the part relative to the strip.
