Title: Level detecting devices
Inventor: WEBB COLIN
IPC: G01C9/06
Filed: 1990-11-05
Granted: 1993-09-01
Abstract: The device is based on a spirit level system where a bubble 6 is housed within a reservoir 7 of liquid. One side of the reservoir 7 acts to reflect light, from a source 2 disposed on a side of the reservoir remote therefrom, towards a pair of light sensors 1 and 3 disposed one each side of the source 2. Presence of the bubble 6 at a central zone of the reservoir increases reflectance of the light and the device detects a level condition when signals from both sensors 1, 3 are equal. <IMAGE>

Title: Load handling trolley
Inventor: KORDEL WOJCIECH JOSEPH
IPC: B61B13/00
Filed: 1995-04-11
Granted: 1998-12-02
Abstract: A load handling trolley which normally operates in a channelled track comprises an elongate load engager (1) raisable and lowerable relative to bogies (11) via ramp and roller mean (19,17) when the bogies are caused to move longitudinally relative to the load engager. Relative movement is controlled by a lever operated crank (3) which is pivotally mounted with respect to the elongate load engager and which operates link means (9) pivotally connected between the crank and a bogey chassis. In order to limit the angular movement between the link means and the bogey chassis to permit raising of the load engager when partially projecting an end beyond the end of the channelled track an abutment (25,27) is operable between the link means and the bogey chassis, additional angular movement of the lever operated crank is required to attain the limit position and this is allowed for by relieving (6) an end plate of the trolley to allow further angular movement of the crank actuating lever. Also described is means (30) positioned to the loading and trailing ends of the trolley to provide cleaning of the full width of the channelled track.

Title: Guarantee seal for medicine box labels etc.
Inventor: LO DUCA CARMELO
IPC: G09F/
Filed: 1989-10-17
Granted: 1993-05-07
Abstract: The invention refers to a guarantee seal that is applied inside the packaging for pharmaceutical products and similar, corresponding to a tear off label on each box. The guarantee seal is made up of a slip of silicon paper that is stuck to the packaging when the seal is removed from the box. A piece of watermarked card with a protruding edge is fixed to the label along the edge of the seal. The lower surface of this piece of watermarked card, forming the edge, is covered by a layer of glue that enables permanent adhesion between the label and a support layer. The upper surface, visible and free in respect to the watermarked card's edge, has a code or progressive numbering, which differs from seal to seal: this code or number is also stamped on the piece of silicon card that stays attached to the silicon card after the label removed. The edge of the watermarked silicon card, especially once it is stamped, makes it very difficult to counterfeit and allows for a simple and effective control for regulations as well as over the number of boxes that are distributed.

Title: Adjustment of clearance for rotors
Inventor: WILHELM GRADLER
IPC: H02K/
Filed: 1980-07-02
Granted: 1990-12-10
Abstract: The distance between a revolving and a stationary face, for example between the rotor of an electric motor and its journal bearing in the stator housing is adjusted by first filling the complete gap by an axially stationary component which can be plastically deformed by the action of heat to leave the specified distance. A preferred material for such a distance bush is a thermoplastic such as glass fibre reinforced polyamide which is pref. designed as a castle nut. A steel sheet cap on tbe bearing side of the bush promotes a uniform heat transfer; its dished edge helps to return lubricant to the bearing. This system is ideal for mass prodn. lines because it involves no waiting time.
