A motor shaft direct drive is known as a simple and low cost scheme for small toy vehicles, however the mechanism how it produces propelling force has not yet been explained nor discussed in detail. A trivial idea that a small dent is formed on the road surface just under the shaft end due to static weight takes us to the unexpected result. Brief calculus reveals that the propelling force vector of the system directs somewhat forward with respect to sagittal plane which includes motor shaft slant axis. It suggests that the motor alternative cw and/or ccw rotation generates gradual forward movement, i.e. the vehicle moves perpendicular direction with respect to that of right-left swinging motion. The forward motion is confirmed experimentally with single motor shaft direct drive vehicle, and also discussed in details.

As a welding method in space, the authors have proposed the GHTA (Gas Hollow Tungsten Arc) welding method in the previous papers, where some GHTA welding experiments have been conducted under the condition of low pressure (10^-2 Pa) and/or the micro-gravity. In the present paper, a feasibility study has been conducted whether the method can be used under such a high vacuum condition (10^-5 Pa) as on the space station orbit. As a result, it is made clear that the GHTA method is quite feasible under the high vacuum condition and its melting process strongly depends on the operating gas species such as Ne, Ar and Kr. Increasing the flow rate of operating gas decreases the mass of metal vapor from molten pool and the use of a heavy operating gas such as Kr also decreases the mass of metal vapor.
