A monitor device for use in a laser system transmitting laser light through an optical fiber includes a heat-sensitive element which produces an output to monitor the laser system, the element being provided in a predetermined area of the fiber.

For the purpose of lubricating a cavity, particularly an annular cavity in a tool for forging blanks produced by powder metallurgy, a lubricant spray is directed towards a limited portion of the cavity surface and the nozzle is displaced such that impingement area of the spray against the cavity sweeps over the entire surface of the cavity. The impingement surface of the lubricant spray is adapted...

PURPOSE:To enable detection of error simultaneously with access when error occurs there irrespective of a part or whole of data by unifying error detection output line. CONSTITUTION:When a register stack is in a word access mode, an inversion byte line 12 is in on state. Under this condition, word address is given to a decoder 5 to access word s. By this, a high level signal is sent out to the wor...

?7. -277A MULTI-PURPOSE TRACHEAL TUBE A multi-purpose tracheal tube for use with high frequency ventilation. The tube is an endotracheal tube including up to three lumens, in addition to the primary lumen, which serve various functions to provide versatility in the treatment of patients. In cuffed tubes one of the lumens is used for inflating the cuff once the tube has been placed in the desired p...

5121-T-USA FILTER PLEAT SUPPORT MEANS This invention comprehends a new and unique means for preventing the crowns (forward projections of the pleats) of a backflushable filter element from splitting due to the cyclic action that is experienced during cleaning and backflushing. In one embodiment, a plurality of spacers, preferably wedge shape, is positioned between the outwardly projecting pleats o...

A process for afterburning and purifying process exhaust gases, which contain combustible constituents, wherein the process exhaust gases and the oxygen-containing gases required for a combustion are separately supplied to a fluidized bed reactor of a circulating fluidized bed. In the fluidized bed reactor, the gas velocity is adjusted to 2 to 10 m/s (empty pipe velocity), the mean suspension dens...

A disc brake having a brake shoe wear compensating mechanism in which the sealing gaskets for the operating chamber formed between a pair of spreading members are arranged to be elastically deformable during a brake application, so as to exert a return force during a brake release. A joining element is provided between the spreading members, which utilizes a spring and the friction connection betw...

The subject of the invention is a disc brake including a movable assembly. The brake includes a movable assembly (10) mounted to slide by two small columns (12, 14) on a fixed support (16). The small columns include a cylindrical sleeve and a screw. A locking element (66) is interposed between the sleeves and the heads (62) of the corresponding screws. The locking element has two forks (70) each e...

A simplified water brake unit has greater capacity per unit weight and is readily maintained due to a two piece readily disassembled housing, one part of which provides a firm, accurate support for the stator, and which also has longer seal life because of a seal chamber bleed which relieves the high pressure from behind the inner high pressure seal by providing a communication to the inlet.

Shaped articles in thin-walled form, such as threads, membranes, sheets and tubes and particularly material for encasing sausage, are produced from a shapable mass containing in aqueous dispersion at least one coagulable, amphoteric high molecular organic substance, such as collagen or other coagulable animal protein, by extruding the mass through a die into an aqueous bath in which coagulation of...

A process for preparing a poly(p-methylstyrene) polymer foam including extruding a poly(p-methylstyrene) foam structure from a melt at a temperature which will yield an open cell percentage less than that formed in general purpose polystyrene foamed under the same general conditions. It also includes performing the extrusion from a melt at a rate which will yield a foam structure at least comparab...

Access to a space is impeded by generation of a sticky foam from a silicone polymer and a low boiling solvent such as a halogenated hydrocarbon. In a preferred aspect, the formulation is polydimethylsiloxane gel mixed with F502 Freon as a solvent and blowing agent, and pressurized with CO2 in a vessel to about 250 PSI, whereby when the vessel is opened, a sticky and solvent resistant foam is deplo...

Thermoplastic elastomeric films comprise from about 40% to about 80% of an elastomeric block copolymer and from about 20% to about 60% of an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer. The block copolymer has at least two monoalkenyl arene polymer end blocks and at least one elastomeric conjugated diene midblock. The monoalkenyl arene polymer blocks comprise from about 8% to about 55% by weight of the block...

An entangled non-woven fabric having a fiber structure which comprises a portion (A) in which ultrafine fiber bundles consisting of ultrafine fibers of a size of not greater than about 0.5 denier are entangled with one another and a portion (B) in which ultrafine fibers to fine bundles of ultrafine fibers branch from the ultrafine fiber bundles and are entangled with one another, and in which port...

In the method for manufacturing a non-sintered quartz ware the quartz and clay are comminuted and fully mixed to make a batch of raw materials. The batch is then added with an effective amount of ore coagulant of which the composition comprises 2CaO.SiO2, 3CaO.SiO2 and 3CaO.Al2O3, subsequently, the above components are blended with water and then molded into the desired shape by extrusion pressing...
