Discharge grates are provided for disposing of the scrap metal through discharge outlets for the hammer mill. The rotor is a disc type with rotating hammers located on pins extending through the discs. A plurality of caps are circumferentially located around each disc and a...

A method of producing a heat-shrinkable elastomer comprising the steps of: (a) without the application of external heat, extending an elastomer comprising a copolymer of alternating polyamide and polyether repeat block polymer segments to an extension beyond that at which permanent deformation occurs thereby to orient said elastomer uniaxially, and (b) subsequently releasing the tension on said el...

Method and apparatus for building annular tire components such as steel cord tread reinforcements, in which a measuring drum is employed to receive strip material and simultaneously to feed it to a component building former. The strip material laps a portion only of the measuring drum, and a measured length of the strip is severed on the measuring drum and the major portion of the length of strip ...

A holder (1) for the carriage of a cartridge of fluid medicament during the administration thereof to livestock by way of a syringe and flexible tubing (4). The holder has portions (6) for snuggly fitting about the upper arm of the user and is adapted for replaceably support of the cartridge.

A disposable container which includes a sealed pouch (21) having a low cost pouch body (22) sealed to a low cost semi-rigid access end plug (23). An open end of the pouch body (22) is sealed over the side periphery of the access end plug (23). The disposable container is autoclavable and can be structured such that the access assembly is a nipple assembly (24) of a disposable nurser for use in fee...

A pivotable and slidable window assembly includes one or more sashes slidable in parallel, coplanar horizontal tracks. Each sash carries a pair of pivot members extending in opposite directions from the sash to define a pivot axis for swinging the sash out of its usual sliding plane for cleaning or the like of both sides of the sash. Each pivot member is slidably received in a respective one of th...

A solid-state electrosurgical generator is disclosed which provides three separate output circuits that may be operated from a single common power source. One of the output circuits produces an output electrical waveform which is optimized for cutting and coagulation with monopolar electrodes. Another source provides a waveform which is optimized for cutting and coagulation with bipolar electrodes...

Porous metallic bodies having a substantially uniform pore size of less than about 200 microns and a density of less than about 25 percent theoretical, as well as the method for making them, are disclosed. Group IIA, IIIB, IVB, VB, and rare earth metal hydrides are heated in a confining container at a controlled rate to a temperature of about greater than the temperature at which the hydride decom...

A programmable controller system is taught which uses an oscillator to provide a relatively low frequency low duty cycle series of digital ones and zeros to the gate logic of a load control device regardless of whether the device is in the ON or OFF state. These signals are electrically passed through the system which controls the load for such a short time that the load cannot change state becaus...

Interface lines interconnect a first circuit to a second circuit. When an abnormal circuit condition affects the interface lines, such as an open circuit or a short circuit condition, the operation of the first and second circuit is detrimentally affected. This invention determines the existence of abnormal circuit conditions in one or more lines of a group of interface lines without using redunda...

A lock includes a solenoid-operated striker unit (4) for capturing pin-bolts (9) of the shot bolt assembly (3) of a key-operable locking mechanism (1) ofa hinged door (2). The pin-bolts (9) are captured within a keep channel-member (13) that slides up and down within a fixed channel-member (10) between an upper, release position in which slots (14) in the member (13) are in register with slots (11...

A load handling vehicle having a load handling device disposed in front of the vehicle body and tiltable by a pair of opposite tilting cylinders. A main frame extends longitudinally of the vehicle and is fixed to each side of the vehicle body at a plurality of locations spaced apart longitudinally thereof. Each tilting cylinder extends longitudinally of the vehicle and is positioned above and clos...

A method of detecting flaws in the neck finish 1 of a glass container 2, especially "line overfinishes", comprises illuminating the neck finish 1 by means of a light source 3, via a half-silvered mirror 4 mounted at an angle to the axis of the container, and reflecting the image of the neck finish via a rotating dove prism 7 to an image detector 10. The detector 10 may comprise two detector cells ...

Tears, creases or other faults in a cinefilm (5) are detected whilst the film is being transported on rollers (1, 2, 3) during processing. An image of a slit (S) in a mirror (10) is focused onto the surface of the film at P. When the film surface lies exactly at the focal point the image of the slit is reflected back to its original position. However any deviation in the position of the film surfa...

A coating composition rapidly curable at room temperature in the presence of vaporous tertiary amine catalyst and possessing a pot life of at least about 4 hours in an open pot. The coating composition includes an aromatic hydroxyl-functional condensation product made by condensing the following ingredients: (a) a linear aliphatic dibasic acid; (b) a linear aliphatic glycol, where the sum of the m...

The preparation of monolayer blown nylon films on equipment conventionally used in the manufacture of blown polyethylene film is facilitated by the intimate admixture of a minor proportion by weight of a random ethylene/ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer into the nylon resin composition from which said blown nylon film is to be manufactured.
