Abstract: TITLE                SOLAR DISPLAY KIOSK     INVENTOR                Ronald A. W. CLARKE                        ABSTRACT            This invention relates to a solar display kiosk particularly to a display kiosk that during day time conditions is embodiment, by the sun. It provides, in its perferred embodiment, a closed cylindrical member placed in the vertical position with an open or a closed but light transmissive upper end, which acts as a receiver for solar or ambient light.  A circumferential band at the top of the kiosk acts a shading member to place regions immediately beneath such band into shade either totally or in part (umbra and penumbra).  Translucent display materials are mounted in the walls of the cylinder in the zones of umbra or penumbra.  To the viewer they appear to be highly illuminated, the illumination coming from the solar light entering into the centre of the cylinder.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T            The disclosure relates to a ladder set with mutually interconnectable sections which are disposed for varying the effective length of the ladder and which comprise two side pieces (1) and a number of rungs (2) fixedly disposable therein, in which both the side pieces and the rungs are manufactured of a profiled material. The side pieces have longitudinal, substantially enclosed pockets (4) for accommodating longitudinal projection members (3) on an adjacent section.            The ladder is designed so as to be manufactured as an easily assembled kit and so as to possess extremely good resistance forces to the composite and extreme loadings which prevail when the ladder is in use.            The ladder is characterized in that the rungs (2) are of closed cross-section with non-rotational symmetrical cross-sectional configuration, and that   each end of the rungs has at least one projection (15). The projections consist of protruding portions of the wall material (14) of the rungs and are torsionally rigidly disposable in corresponding recesses in the side pieces. The rungs are urged against the side pieces by anchorage means (16) discrete from the projections.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:      In a process of producing coarse pure potassium chloride crystals from feed solutions containing sodium chloride and other impurities , comprising evaporating the hot solution under a vacuum in a plurality of flash evaporation stages and further processing  in a manner known per se , it is proposed that potassium chloride in the form of salt sludge from one or more flash evapo-ration stages and in the form of a highly concentrated , hot solutions of the potassium chloride which becomes available during the further processing and cannot be used should be recycled to the feed solution in order to ensure that the crystallization will begin in the first stage and potassium chloride product can be withdrawn from one or more of those stages of the cocurrent-flow flash evaporator which contain solution at a higher temperature . Pure potassium chloride in the form of coarse crystals having a uniform particle size is thus produced by an economical process that is ecologically satisfactory .

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure The present invention provides a novel heat-treated tea.  The heat-treated tea is obtained by placing green tea leaves in a tea drier, supplying the drier with dry air heated externally to 200 to 300°C and heating the drier from outside to heat the tea leaves to 200 to 300°C for 20 to 60 minutes.  The tea obtained is brown in color and can be served by brewing in hot water as is done with the traditional green or roasted tea.  It has special flavor and aroma different from the traditional teas.  The extract of said heat-treated tea is effective in disinfection or preventing hung-over or stiff shoulder.  Additional of said extract to wheat flour for making noodles and breads will improve the taste and quality of the product.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    The present invention relates to a method of applying an herbicide mixture to an area to be cultivated.  The method includes the steps of mixing a colored herbicide with a colored carrier until the mixture changes colors, applying the mixture to the ground, and watering the mixture until the colored herbicide is removed from the mixture and absorbed by the soil and only the colored carrier remains.  The colored herbicide may be a yellow powder while the carrier may be a blue-dyed fertilizer or an inert material.  Preferably the colored herbicide is benefin and, if a fertilizer is used as the carrier, it is urea form.  In the preferred embodiment the mixture has a green appearance after mixing the yellow-colored herbicide with the blue-dyed fertilizer but before applying the mixture to the ground so as to indicate when blending thereof is complete and uniform throughout.  After the mixture is applied to the ground and is watered, the yellow-colored herbicide is entirely removed from the mixture and carried with the water into the soil while the blue-dyed fertilizer remains on the surface so as to indicate, by the change in color of the mixture from green to blue, that adequate watering has been accomplished.

Abstract: Torch Height Sensing Apparatus Abstract A torch height sensing apparatus is provided for generating information representative of the spacing between a cutting torch and an associated workpiece. The apparatus drives a preselected current from the torch through the torch flame to the workpiece so that electrons flow from the workpiece through the flame to the torch.  The output current biases the flame into the linear region of the preselected voltage-current characteristic at a positive torch to workpiece current.  Biasing the torch for positive current flow from the torch to the workpiece insures that flame height sensing occurs in the positive linear region where the sensitivity is greatest due to the avail-ability of thermally emitted electrons at the workpiece.

Abstract: Title Strut Synchronizer for Transmission Abstract of the Invention A transmission synchronizer includes a strut and blocker ring engagement system wherein the strut is retained by the blocker rings in all of its axial positions against centrifugal and spring forces on the strut.  The slots in each blocker ring are fully enclosed, and thus are disposed for total containment of the opposed ends of the struts.  In a preferred embodiment the strut includes a pair of opposed axially spaced, radially extending bearing surfaces, each disposed for axially bearing against one side of a blocker ring, wherein each of the bearing surfaces is distinct from the slot engaging ends of the strut.  Thus each bearing surface defines an inwardly stepped wall relative to one of the slot engaging ends of the strut.

Molten casting material is poured into the mold to fill the depression and to cover the porous material.  The molten casting material solidifies to form a tissue block with the capsule serving as a clamp able base for an outwardly extending, tissue-containing portion.  The capsule may be formed in a single operation in an injection molding process using a press that includes a pair of mold blocks that together define frame-forming cavities and between which is sandwiched a segment of an elongated web of porous material.  Molten plastic, injected into the cavities, forms the frames and impregnate portions of the web within the cavity, and the molten plastic solidifies with the porous material permanently affixed to newly molded frames.
