Combination pad lock

Provided is a combination lock capable of being opened by inserting a key into keyhole in addition to turning tumbler wheels to a set series of numbers. In the key opening operation key is turned to rotate shaft, cam, and shuttle assembly for aligning tabs with the grooves, causing the cam to contact and push an L-shaped member laterally to compress a spring-loaded member for opening a gap between the leg and the shackle with a distance between the shaft and a blind end of a channel of the shuttle assembly being decreased to a minimum as the channel slides relative to the shaft, and moving the tabs along the grooves to project the shuttle assembly from one end of a bore of a spring-loaded moveable member to the other end thereof.

Combination lock

The present invention relates to a method for treating spent tin or tin/lead stripping solution used in the electronic industry, particularly in the manufacture of printed circuit boards or a lead frames. Said method comprises (i) electrolytically reducing copper ions in the solution to copper at a low temperature; (ii) electrolytically oxidizing Sn and Pb in the solution at a high temperature to form solid tin and lead oxides and hydroxides; (iii) separating solid tin and lead oxides and hydroxides from the solution; (iv) dissolving tin and lead oxides and hydroxides obtained in step (iii) in a strong alkali or acidic solution; and (v) electrolytically reducing the alkali or acidic solution obtained in step (iv) at a high temperature to recover metallic tin and lead. Also, the filtrate obtained in step (iii) above is useful for preparing fresh tin or tin/lead stripping solution.
