Title: Method and apparatus for stranding elongated elements into reversely twisted strand
Inventor: JANKOWSKI JERZY
IPC: H01B13/02
Filed: 1994-09-15
Abstract: A method of stranding elongated elements into a strand of reverse twists according to the invention is based on that, that a bundle of elements is inserted into a winding flyer (7), producing the first twist in the bundle and winding the bundle on a drum (9) which acts as an accumulator. Simultaneously, the bundle is unwound from the drum (9) by means of an unwinding flyer (13), producing the second twist in the bundle. Next, the bundle is pulled out of the unwinding flyer (13). Both flyers (7, 13) and the drum (9) have a common axis (O) of rotation and rotate in the same direction. A repeating period of stranding the bundle of elements consists of at least two successive phases of twisting. A length of the bundle twisted in one phase by the winding flyer (7) is next twisted in another phase by the unwinding flyer (13). The strand of the bundle is an algebraic sum of successive twists produced in particular phases of twisting. It is advantageous if the twisting as above is repeated.

Abstract: A fish based food product resembles fried bacon which has been mixed and/or ground into a plurality of individual pieces. The imitation bacon pieces have a homogeneous consistency and are formed from the steps of mixing clean salmon with a flavor altering mixture in a mixing apparatus to produce a homogeneous paste, spreading the homogeneous paste into a thin sheet, heating the sheet until transformed into a pliable sheet, and grinding and mixing the pliable sheet into a plurality of individual pieces less than 1/2 inch in diameter. The flavor altering mixture includes, inter alia, garlic, soy sauce, and white pepper. During the final mixing process, oil and a flavoring powder are added to the fish pieces to produce a product having the flavor, texture, and appearance of fried bacon pieces. The flavoring powder is preferably smoke powder and the oil is preferably canola oil.

Title: Reversible ratcheting screwdriver with improved reversing ring
Inventor: EGGERT DANIEL M
IPC: B25G1/06
Filed: 1996-04-03
Abstract: The ratcheting screwdriver comprises a handle with a working end and a reversible ratchet mechanism therein, the ratchet mechanism defining a bore which receives one end of an associated shank coaxially therein. A cup-shaped spinner is fixed to the shank and a cup-shaped reversing member is nested in the spinner and is coupled to the ratchet mechanism and has an annular flange engageable by a finger and/or thumb of a user's hand which is gripping the handle for shifting the ratchet mechanism among forward ratcheting, reversing ratcheting and non-ratcheting modes. The outer peripheral surface of the annular flange has circumferentially alternating arcuate recesses and serrated frictional griping regions. In several embodiments, at least one of the serrated regions is in the form of a raised lobe which projects radially outwardly beyond the remainder of the flange surface and radially beyond the working end of the handle, the lobe having an arcuate outer surface with serrations extending along the sloping sides and along the crest of the surface. At least one such lobe is preferably positioned along the top of the handle and the lobes may have axial extents greater than that of the remainder of the annular flange.

Title: Method and apparatus for locating vibrating devices
Inventor: VILKOMERSON DAVID
IPC: A61B8/08
Filed: 1995-03-14
Abstract: An ultrasonic imaging system (10) which includes a display (12) for guiding a user in the placement of a needle (20) within the body includes a vibrating element (22) which transmits vibratory mechanical oscillation at a predetermined frequency of vibration to the interventional medical device. The medical device completes am oscillation during each vibratory period. An imaging transducer (16) sequentially transmits ultrasonic waves down a selected image line into the imaging region in pulses which are separated by a time interval determined as a function of the vibratory period so that they coincide with maximum displacement of a given point on the interventional device. Return signals received after each pulse are processed to eliminate static and non-static tissue components so that a bright image of the vibrating element is obtained.

Abstract: The lighting system according to the present invention is based on a modular lighting component or fixture which is designed to accommodate a single T8 (1" diameter) or smaller fluorescent tube.  The T8 fluorescent tube which is smaller than the widely used T12 fluorescent tube is more efficient and lower powered than the more common T12 lamp.  The modular system of fixtures each contain only one lamp and allow the end user to couple the correct quantity of fixtures to meet both the lighting requirements and the power density limitations of any application.  The modular system of fixtures along with a system for coupling the fixtures allows extreme flexibility of layout designs for a variety of applications.  The individual lighting fixture includes a lamp housing in which the single T8 light source is mounted, electrical connections for the light source, side reflectors and a plurality of cross vanes or louvers extending transversely below the light source.  The individual lighting fixtures may be mounted individually, in twin-paks, or in rows to provide a wide assortment of lighting designs available to the lighting designer.

Title: Correlated set of golf club heads having vibration damping plaques of uniform size and shape, and golf club head with improved inset/offset hosel
Inventor: STONE DANIEL JOSEPH
IPC: A63B53/04
Filed: 1997-05-02
Abstract: A correlated set of iron-type golf club heads, wherein each head in the set employs the same sized vibration damping plaque.   Each club head includes a substantially  planar  blade  element  having  a  front striking face for impacting a golf ball,  and a rear surface opposite the front striking face.  A perimeter weighting element is formed integrally with at least a portion of the outer perimeter of the rear surface and extends substantially rearwardly from the rear surface. The remainder of the rear surface not covered by the perimeter weighting element defines the bottom of an open cavity which is substantially surrounded by an inner peripheral surface of the perimeters weighting element. The area and shape of the remainder of the rear surface that  defines  the  bottom  of  the  open  cavity  are substantially  identical  in  each  club  head  of  the correlated set, thus making it possible to use the same sized and shaped vibration damping plaque in each club head.  The invention additionally includes an iron-type golf club head, including a front striking face, a rear surface opposite the front striking face, a toe portion, a heel portion opposite the toe portion, and a top rail surface portion projecting rearwardly  from an upper periphery of  the  front  striking  face  and  extending between the toe and heel portions.  The hosel is offset and inset, and extends generally upwardly and forwardly only from the heel end portion of the top rail, such that the hosel does not occupy any portion of the front striking face and does not impede contact between the front striking face and a golf ball.
