A multi-channel module with a plurality of chips is mounted on a multilayer circuit board and has a simple and highly reliable structure cooling system for cooling the heat generated by the chips consuming a large amount of electric power. The cooling system uses in the horizontal direction a coolant supply pipe having straight tube sections and flexible bellows sections alternately disposed in the axial direction of the pipe. The straight tube sections of the aforesaid coolant supply pipe are brought into contact with the upper faces of the chips by a spring force so as to cool continuously the plurality of chips with the coolant flowing in one coolant supply pipe thereby providing a simply structured cooling system for chips. Such a structured cooling system enables the collective assembly of cooling parts for a plurality of chips with only a small number of parts and produces highly reliable effects thereby being able to implement the miniaturization of a main frame computer.

After a metallic cylindrical tube is bulged to form a bellows with a circular cross section, this bellows is ovalized to form a bellows with an oval cross section. For this reason, an inexpensive round tube (cylindrical tube) can be used as the material for a bellows with an oval cross section and it is unnecessary to use an expensive oval tube. Accordingly, a bellows with an oval cross section can be produced at low cost.

This invention relates to an apparatus for manufacturing a T-joint, which consists of a tube portion and a collar portion, by using burring techniques. The apparatus is provided with a high-frequency induction heating unit for heating the circumferential portion of a pilot hole made in a tube, a cooling ring for ejecting a coolant to the circumferential portion of the pilot hole, and a temperature distribution control for controlling the heating rate of the heating unit and the coolant ejection rate of the cooling ring. The apparatus thus constructed enables the working temperature of the parts of the circumferential portion of the pilot hole in the plane of which includes the axes of the tube and the collar to be lower than that of the parts of the circumferential portion in the plane extending at right angle to the above-mentioned plane. Therefore, this apparatus can be used effectively to manufacture a T-joint of which the thicknes of the collar portion is substantially uniform in the circumferential direction of the circumferential portion of the pilot hole.

A method and apparatus for increasing a thickness of a tubular member which ensures a uniform thickness increase of the tubular member and a reduction of an increase in a thickness on an inner diameter side of the tubular member. A portion of the tubular member is subjected to upsetting by applying thereto a compressive force in an axial direction of the tubular member, while the portion is being heated locally and progressively so that a surface layer of the portion of the tubular member reaches a high temperature and a thermal gradient is generated between inner and outer diameter portions of the tubular member. A loading arrangement is provided which is adapted to apply a compressive force in the tubular member in an axial direction thereof, with an annular heater being arranged around an outer circumference of the tubular member. The annular heater is capable of being moved in an axial direction of the tubular member and a control device is provided for controlling a temperature of the heater.

A fluid pressure reducing device having a core provided with a peripheral spiral groove and a pipe receiving the core. The portion of the pipe receiving the core is radially contracted so that the ridges of the spiral groove of the core intrude into the inner peripheral surface of the pipe, thereby to form a spiral passage between the pipe and the core. The pressure of a fluid is reduced as the latter flows through the spiral passage. This fluid pressure reducing device is easy to produce and permits an easy fine adjustment of the flow resistance.
