Abstract: The machine for and method of manufacturing fluted pin fasteners and the pins produced thereby utilize a circular grinding arrangement of a plurality of grinders (178) which grind flutes (266) into a threaded pin (55). An internally threaded collar threads (262) onto the pin (55). When the collar (262) engages a surface of a work piece (256), resistance to further threading increases. When sufficient resistance to threading occurs, the driver deforms the lobes (264) of the collar (262) radially inward toward the axis of the collar. Material of the collar positioned internally from the lobes (262) responds to deformation of the lobes (264) and flows radially inward into the flutes (266) of the pin (55) to lock the collar, pin, and work piece together. The driver then rotates freely, and a joint has been made with a predetermined axial load thereby locking the component parts together. The apparatus grinding the flutes into the pins comprises a vibratory feed bowl (20) loading threaded pins into a four station rotary drum assembly (30) rotationally driven by a drive mechanism (32) through a plurality of stations. There is a feed station to receive pins into drum assembly, a grind station (42) to grind the pins, and an eject station (40) to eject the ground pins. The circular arrangement of grinders (178) is mounted on a table (176) which is translated up and down by an air spring (174) against a cam wheel to grind the pins (55) located at the grinding station (42). These operations are performed substantially simultaneously on separate pins (55) to provide a high rate of production.

Abstract: In this invention radioactive or hazardous containing materials are vitrified in a melter having two or more chambers. Glass feed materials are added to the primary chamber of the melter and they are heated to a molten glass which is then transported to one or more secondary chambers where hazardous and/or radioactive containing materials are added and are encapsulated and/or melted. In addition, the non-plutonium part of a glass feed can be melted in a non-radioactive environment which permits contact operations and maintenance; no radioactive shielding; and a conventional off gas system-similar to commercial vitrification plants. The hot molten "clean" glass is directed into a radioactive containment such as a "glove box"; shielded "glove box"; or hot cell, or a combination of these. By delivering hot "clean" glass from a melter including non-radioactive materials, 90% of the off gases will be non-radioactive. Thereby only minimum heating is needed in the radioactive containment resulting in very significant reductions in size of the maintenance requirements for the radioactive portion of the process. In the radioactive portion, the glove box will include means for adding plutonium feed. The glass melt will be homogenized with the plutonium feed, optionally by additional stirring. Once the plutonium glass is sufficiently homogeneous, it can be cooled in the container in the glove box or the container becomes a disposal container for the glass. If the melt chamber is different than the container, the melt is discharged to a separate container, all within the glove box, for subsequent disposal.

Abstract: The present specification describes a computer process which requests streams of motion video titles and decodes and displays the motion video signals of the stream for display in a computer display device is constructed in the form of an applet 212 of a multimedia document viewer 202 such as a World Wide Web browser. Accordingly, a designer of multimedia documents such as HTML pages can easily incorporate motion video titles into such HTML pages by specifying a few parameters of a desired title or a desired portion of a title to be requested from a video server 250. The applet 212 builds bit stream control signals from the specification of the title or the portion of the title. The bit stream control signals request transmission of the title or the portion of the title from a bit stream server such as a video server 250 and are in a form appropriate for processing by the bit stream server. The applet 212 transmits the bit stream control signals to the bit stream server 250 to thereby request that the bit stream server 250 initiate transmission of a bit stream representing the requested title or the requested portion of the title. The applet 212 also builds decoder control signals from the specification of the title or the portion of the title. The decoder control signals direct a bit stream decoder 204 to receive the requested bit stream from the bit stream server 250 and to decode a motion video signal from the bit stream. The applet 212 transmits the decoder control signals to the decoder 204 to cause the decoder 204 to receive the bit stream and to decode the motion video signal from the bit stream.
