PURPOSE:To get a stable setup state in a way of having the centroid of a monitor set low and to make it so as not to prevent the front sight of a driver by interposing an arm member with a step difference between a rotation controlling member and the monitor. CONSTITUTION:An arm member 11 with a step difference is interposed between a rotation controlling member 3 and a monitor 1, through which th...

The present invention relates to an improved process for producing, by means of a portable foaming apparatus having a static mixer, a polyurethane foam by reacting a reaction mixture comprised of a polyol, an organic isocyanate, a foaming/frothing agent, and a reaction catalyst, the improvement comprising employing monochlorodifluoromethane as the sole blowing/frothing agent in said reaction in or...

The invention relates to an article having a polyurethane surface which has been rendered hydrophilic as well as to a method of rendering a polyurethane surface hydrophylic. According to the invention there is provided an article having a poyurethane surface provided with a coating of hydrophilic polyacrilamide or polymethacrylamide (other than poly(N-(mono hydroxy)propyl methacrylamide) bonded to...

The present invention relates to the formation of bodies having graded properties. Particularly, the invention provides a method for forming a metal matrix composite body having graded properties. The graded properties are achieved by, for example, locating differing amounts of filler material in different portions of a formed body and/or locating different compositions of filler material in diffe...

A polyurethane foam comprising a convolution of connected passages and a three dimensional vesicular, porous surface structure, substantially without an outer layer skin is described. An absorbent article is further described comprising a substrate and at least a single layer of the polyurethane foam. The process to produce the polyurethane foam comprises the steps of: (a) coating a substrate with...

A process for forming porous articles. The method utilizes an enclosed vessel in which a base material is melted into a molten state. A gas, whose solubility in the base material decreases with decreasing temperature of the base material and increases with increasing pressure of the gas, is dissolved into the base material. Means are provided for cooling the base material while maintaining the gas...

The present invention relates to a device and a method making it possible to transfer information between the bottom of a well and the surface. The method according to the invention is characterised in that the information is transferred by means of either a mud-wave generator or electromagnetic waves or a cable, simultaneously or in succession.
