Abstract
Abstract A method for manufacturing a multi-layer amorphous alloy having at least one layer of amorphous alloy, comprises the steps of ejecting a first molten metal on one of a pair of rollers rotating at a high speed, and rotating the ejected metal with the roller in a shape of a layer for rapid cooling; forming two molten metal layers on the rotating roller or belt by ejecting a second molten metal different from the first metal on the first molten metal for rapid cooling; and adhering under pressure and rolling the molten metal layers between the pair of rollers; and the method of the present invention is applicable to the manufacture of multi-layer alloys which may be used as various composite alloy materials such as high-sensitivity bimetals, superconductive wires, contact spring composite alloys, latching relays having two-stepped magnetic hysteresis, and high fidelty magnetic heads.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
A method for manufacturing a multi-layer amorphous alloy having two layers of amorphous alloy, comprising the steps of ejecting a molten first metal on one of a pair of rollers rotating at a high speed or on a metal belt driven by the roller, and rotating the ejected metal with the rollers for rapid cooling; forming two metal layers on the rotating roller or belt by ejecting a molten second metal different from said first metal on said first metal for rapid cooling; and adhering said metal layers to one another under pressure and rolling between said pair of rollers; wherein the temperature of said first metal, when said molten second metal is ejected on said first metal, is higher than the crystallizing temperature of said first metal and lower than the solidifying temperature of said first metal.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
138 words
A method for manufacturing a multi-layer amorphous alloy having two layers of amorphous alloy, comprising the steps of ejecting a molten first metal on one of a pair of rollers rotating at a high speed or on a metal belt driven by the roller, and rotating the ejected metal with the rollers for rapid cooling; forming two metal layers on the rotating roller or belt by ejecting a molten second metal different from said first metal on said first metal for rapid cooling; and adhering said metal layers to one another under pressure and rolling between said pair of rollers; wherein the temperature of said first metal, when said molten second metal is ejected on said first metal, is higher than the crystallizing temperature of said first metal and lower than the solidifying temperature of said first metal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein the solidifying temperature of said first metal is higher than the melting point of said first metal minus 150° C. and lower than the melting point of said first metal minus 50° C.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
The method according to claim 1, wherein the temperature of said second metal at the contact point between said pair of rollers is higher than 2/3 of the melting point of said first metal and lower than the melting point of said first metal.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for manufacturing a multi-layer amorphous alloy having one layer of amorphous alloy and one layer of crystalline alloy, comprising the steps of ejecting a molten first metal on one of a pair of rollers rotating at a high speed or on a metal belt driven by the roller, and rotating the ejected metal with the rollers for rapid cooling; forming two metal layers on the rotating roller or belt by ejecting a molten second metal different from said first metal on said first metal for rapid cooling; and adhering said metal layers to one another under pressure and rolling between said pair of rollers; wherein the temperature of said first metal, when said second metal is ejected on said first metal, is higher than 2/3 of the melting point of said first metal and lower than the solidifying temperature of said first metal.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
145 words
A method for manufacturing a multi-layer amorphous alloy having one layer of amorphous alloy and one layer of crystalline alloy, comprising the steps of ejecting a molten first metal on one of a pair of rollers rotating at a high speed or on a metal belt driven by the roller, and rotating the ejected metal with the rollers for rapid cooling; forming two metal layers on the rotating roller or belt by ejecting a molten second metal different from said first metal on said first metal for rapid cooling; and adhering said metal layers to one another under pressure and rolling between said pair of rollers; wherein the temperature of said first metal, when said second metal is ejected on said first metal, is higher than 2/3 of the melting point of said first metal and lower than the solidifying temperature of said first metal.
