A power transmitting mechanism for converting the thrust of reciprocating pistons to a rotary output shaft at speeds independent of the frequency of piston reciprocation. Power developed by expanding gases in accordance with well-known thermal cycles, such as the Stirling cycle, is transmitted by pistons to a bed plate capable of swashing motion about a point on the axis of the output shaft. The s...

Biocompatible metal balls are secured by affixation stems to the humerus and the scapular region of the shoulder. The balls are rotatably captured between a pair of cutout plastic hemispheres, which are secured to each other to form a spheroid by a U-shaped collar. The prosthesis accordingly provides a wide range of articulation with substantially high stability.

This mortar is made up of clay, cement, mixing water and an additional agent. The weight proportion of clay is at least equal to that of cement. The additional agent is chosen from urea-formaldehyde and melamine-formaldehyde resins and their derivatives. The weight percentage of the said agent, calculated as the weight of solids contents of this agent relative to the weight of solids contents of t...

A device for controlling the incidence of heat and light radiation on a growing area of a greenhouse or the like comprises slats of a non-self-supporting material which are tensioned to hold them in shape. The slats are arranged in parallel side-by-side relationship to cover substantially the whole growing area and can be tilted like Venetian blinds.

A memory array, having a plurality of intersecting rows and columns, stores digitized speech. Each row and column intersection consists of a binary storage cell for storing one bit of digitized speech. Incoming digitized speech is loaded into columns of the memory array in a plurality of repetitive loading sequences, each loading sequence including: reading out the bits stored in successive rows o...

SISTEMA DE PERFUSION PERFECCIONADO.SISTEMA DE PERFUSION EXTRACORPOREA DE PLASMA SOBRE UNA PROTEINA A INMOVILIZADA TERAPEUTICA.CONSTA DE UN SEPARADOR DE CELULAS (18) DE FLUJO CONTINUO QUE SEPARA EL FLUJO PARA EL PLASMA DE LA SANGRE COMPLETA; DE UN DISPOSITIVO INMUNOADSORBENTE TERAPEUTICO (24) DE PROTEINA A INMOVILIZADA; DE UN CONDUCTO DE PLASMA (22) CONECTADO AL SEPARADOR (18) Y AL DISPOSITIVO INMU...

A mechanism for continually testing a first processor element in a suitable multiprocessor system in which at least first and second processor elements are connected to a common input bus to concurrently receive the same opcodes and operands. Both processors decode the opcodes; when an opcode indicates an operation to be performed by the second processor, the first processor responds by executing ...

In a data processing system, a memory (32) consists of data words and associated error-correction codes that are independently accessible; it is possible simultaneously to read a data word and write its associated error-correction code. This allows a memory-control circuit (30) immediately to store in the memory (32) a data word sent by a processor (10) while it is concurrently in the process of g...

An aqueous solution of 1-30 weight % alkali metal silicate and 0.005-10 weight % nitrite is stable and well permeable into hardened cementitious material. When applying said aqueous solution on the surface of hardened cementitious structure having metallic armatures embedded therein, it is possible not only to form surface layer improved in compactness, strength, hardness, waterproofing and weathe...
