For continuous supply of expander material to the negative electrode of a lead storage battery, particularly a quinone derivative, this material is provided within an acid-resistant plastic vessel with an aperture toward the electrolyte, or in a chemically neutral matrix in tablet form. The size of the aperture or the porosity of the chemically neutral matrix so regulates the expander delivery tha...

PURPOSE:To maintain operation sensitivity constant in an automobile equipped with a first linkage mechanism on a lever of a carburetor or the like and the second linkage mechanism between the subtransmission and the control lever by means of a third linkage mechanism provided between the first and second linkage mechanism.

PURPOSE:To obviate the necessity of provision of a boss portion and aim at reduction in weight of a transmission case and reduction in producing cost, by projecting an external thread portion provided on an outer circumference of an outer race of a bearing from a side plate of the transmission case, and holding the side plate between both nuts to mount the bearing to the side plate. CONSTITUTION:A...

An apparatus and method for testing and verifying the timing logic of a cathode ray tube display in a data processing system. Apparatus associated with the CRT tests and verifies the vertical and horizontal synchronization and the logic associated with the character generator by counting the occurrences of a selected signal having a preestablished rate within a predetermined number of occurences o...

An absorbent material is produced by exposing an aqueous solution of polyvinyl alcohol and a low molecular weight, water soluble copolymer containing polymerized oxyethylene and oxypropylene units, to sufficient electromagetic or corpuscular ionizing radiation to form a gel.

Self-extinguishing expandable polystyrene particles containing an expanding agent, a self-extinguishing organic halogen-containing compound and a 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-triazine derivative.

1. Compositions based on biopolymers containing at least 8% of biopolymer, characterized in that they are in the form of a stable oil-in-water emulsion comprising by weight : a) 40 to 99 parts of an aqueous phase containing by weight 10 to 60% of biopolymer and 40 to 90% of water, b) 1 to 60 parts of oil, and c) 1 to 40%, relative to the mixture a)+b), of at least one surfactant agent.

PURPOSE:To transmit motive power efficiently and smoothly by positioning a pair of sun gears so as to have a driven gear interposed. CONSTITUTION:When a car advances, planetary gears 11 and 12 do not rotate, and the revolution of a driven gear 3 is transmitted to sun gears 9 and 10, and the left and the right driving shafts 17 and 18 are equally revolved. In turning, the planetary gears 11 and 12 ...

The device is essentially composed of a feeding roller (15) with compartments (19) in a house (16) and a supply of detergent. Since the detergent is highly hygroscopic it is important to prevent moisture from penetrating into the supply. The roller is therefore made of an elastic material and separates a filling opening (20) and an emptying opening (21) in the house. The roller is rotated in porti...

The invention relates to a high density composite sheet based on discontinuous mineral fibers. The inventive sheet has a content of mineral fibers greater than 70 wt. % of the total weight of fibers and binder, and has a density between 400 and 1600 kg/m3. The sheet can be employed in particular as an architectural structural wall facing, as a component of a composite insulating panel, etc., and i...

PURPOSE:To obtain a taking-out seat by combining the seat cushion front edge part and the seat back upper edge part of a main seat by making the both freely demountable from the seat body. CONSTITUTION:The seat cushion front edge part 10 and the seat back upper edge part 11 of a main seat can be made freely demountable from the seat cushion body part 2a and the seat back body part 3a through a con...

PURPOSE:To improve the sitting feeling on a seat by holding the right foot part at the left-side part of the seat cushion of a taking-out seat and holding the left foot part at the right-side part. CONSTITUTION:The seat cushion 11 and the seat back 12 of a taking-out seat 10 are incorporated into the seat cushion 2 and the seat back 3 of a main seat 1. A pair of foot parts 3 and 4 are pivotally su...

PURPOSE:To permit the sitting position to be adjusted by a simple structure by making a cushion member to be installed onto a seat, besides the seat. CONSTITUTION:A seat 16 is formed by arranging a seat cushion 14 onto the sitting part 11 and the back supporting part 12 of a floor panel 4. A plate-shaped cushion member 17 is arranged in the cavity 13 at the back of the back supporting part 12, and...
