Abstract: A container for a vehicle occupant restraint air bag including a back cover and a front cover (32) comprising walls (38, 40) and door panels (62, 64) connected to the walls by means of an open weave scrim strip (66). The front cover also includes an apertured reinforcing element (46) with slots defining upper and lower hinge lines. Edge regions (66a, 66b) of each scrim strip are joined to the walls (38, 40) and door panels (62, 64) respectively by moulded resinous plastics material. Each scrim strip also includes a hinge portion (66c, 66d). Impervious tape 74 is applied during moulding to the hinge portions (66c, 66d) which overlie each other and the edge region in order to selectively prevent the plastics material from impregnating at least part of the hinge portion (66a, 66d). The hinge effectively prevents separation of the door panels from the front cover (32) while allowing unimpeded inflation of the air bag. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A metal-air power supply which provides improved control over air flow is provided. The reactant air and cooling air inlets are separate from one another and isolated from the exhausted reactant and cooling portions of the air flow. The reactant air flow is limited to a volumetric flow rate sufficient to provide from about 3 to about 10 times the stoichiometric amount of oxygen necessary to produce a predetermined level of current from the cell, and a total volumetric flow rate of air sufficient so that the cooling portion of the air flow has a volumetric flow rate from about 10 to about 1000 times the volumetric flow rate of the reactant portion of the air flow is provided. This limits the flow rate of the reactant air over the cathode, isolates the cooling air flow from the reactant air flow, and maintains the temperature of the metal-air cell at a low level without exposing the air cathode to an excessive air flow rate to reduce the likelihood of drying out the metal-air cells, reduce the exposure of the battery cell to contaminants, and minimize the effects of temperature on the vaporization of water within the cell. In a preferred embodiment, the power supply housing and the metal-air cell case form part of the air plenums. A substantially leak-proof metal-air cell is also disclosed.

Title: Soupape d'injection de carburant commandee electromagnetiquement
Inventor: ROMANN PETER
IPC: F02M51/06
Filed: 1993-08-20
Granted: 1997-05-28
Abstract: Dans les soupapes d'injection commandées électromagnétiquement connues, il y a un support de siège de soupape et une aiguille de soupape réalisés dans le même matériau, par exemple de l'acier au chrome. Lorsque le carburant et la soupape d'injection sont chauffés, les deux composants de la soupape arrivent à la même température et leur longueur se modifie dans les mêmes proportions, en raison de coefficients de dilatation thermique identiques. La course de la soupape demeure de ce fait constante. Les bulles de gaz formées dans le carburant chaud au cours de l'échauffement entraînent cependant une diminution du débit de passage du carburant. La nouvelle soupape d'injection doit permettre de compenser la diminution du débit de passage, grâce à un choix judicieux de matériaux. L'utilisation, pour réaliser l'aiguille (6), d'un matériau à très faible coefficient de dilatation thermique, fait que l'aiguille d'injection se dilate moins par rapport au support du siège d'injection (1) lorsque la température augmente. Cela provoque une augmentation de la course et empêche une diminution de la quantité de carburant dosée due à la formation de bulles de gaz. La soupape d'injection convient particulièrement aux dispositifs d'injection de carburant de moteurs à combustion interne à allumage commandé et compression du mélange.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing tape tabs for use in an absorbent article and to tape tabs made by said method. The method comprises providing a number of curved cuts (56) in a unitary strip of material (52) to form side extensions followed by creasing and folding over of the side extensions. After folding over of the side extensions, the unitary strip of material is cut along transverse cut lines (83) to form individual tape tabs (88). Alternatively, composite tape tabs are formed comprising a release member, by combining the unitary strip of material with a release strip prior to cutting the individual tapes. In one embodiment, the material that is cut from the rounded corner of one tape tab forms the side extension (57) of the neighbouring tape tab, which side extension is doubled over to form a reinforced gripping part. In another embodiment, cut-out sections are formed that are contiguous with the rounded corners of each time two neighbouring tape tabs. The cut-out sections are doubled over. The advantage of the method according to the invention is that no scrap is formed, that a reinforced gripping part is formed which easily detaches from a release surface and that a baby-friendly rounded corner is provided. <IMAGE>

This curtain glider (1) has a gliding carriage (5) with, in the gliding direction, push-in projection (11) on one side and push-in recess (12) on the other side, so that the push-in projection (11) engages in the push-in recess (12) of a neighbouring curtain glider (1) when the curtain gliders (1) are pushed together. As a result, a stabilization of the curtain gliders (1) in the course of various movement sequences is achieved. In addition, the gliding carriage (5) has a centring frame (13) which bridges the gliding head (4) and possesses a centring recess (14) for the gliding head (4) pressed against it, the gliding head thereby always being aligned orthogonally to the guiding slot of the running rail (3), and consequently a detachment of the curtain glider (1) from the running rail (3) by itself being prevented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Valve gated injection molding apparatus with a spring mounted on a central pin adjacent the head of a valve member in a spring chamber in each of the pistons. The spring is compressed between the base of the pin and the cap of the piston to preload it. When the valve member and piston are driven forwardly to the closed position, the head of the valve member retracts somewhat into the spring chamber against the force applied forwardly against the head of the valve member by the spring. This cushions the impact of the front end of the valve member in the gate and provides for tight seating of the front end of the valve member in the gate without requiring all of the components to be made to precise tolerances with exact allowance for thermal expansion. The spring is a number of selected disc springs stacked in sets facing in opposite directions, from which the force applied to the head of the valve member is predetermined.
