Abstract: A leveling valve (10) for vehicle air springs has an elongated body (15) in which an actuating mechanism (70) is mounted at one end and a valve means (19,24) at the other end with a dampener (50) and a pilot-operated dump means (23) located between the actuating mechanism and the valve means. An elongated plunger (40) extends from the actuating means to the valve means through the dampener and the pilot-operated dump means. One end of the plunger (40) is attached to the actuating mechanism (70) which includes a sleeve (71) slidable on the plunger and on the opposite sides of which are located coil springs (73,74) for maintaining the neutral position of the plunger and valve means. The springs provide a means for permitting over-travel of the actuating mechanism when the plunger reaches its limit of travel and also assist a dump piston (23) in overriding the actuating mechanism. The dampener (50) provides a time delay in the actuating of the plunger (40) which also provides a means for minimizing fluctuations in the actuation of the valve means caused by a vehicle encountering large bumps in the road. The dampener (50) is formed of two transparent parts (51,52) between which is located a piston (54) and a viscous fluid (57) visible through the transparent parts. The actuating means (70) includes rotatable eccentric means (81a,82a,81b,82b) on each side of the sleeve (71) adapted to actuate the sleeve and a forked actuator arm (14) having two arms (14a,14b) connected to each of the rotatable eccentric means. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for making medical gloves whose fingers have thinner walls than the rest of the gloves involves first depositing onto a hand-shaped glove form a layer of coagulant that comprises an ionic metal salt, then depositing an elastomeric layer. Part of the coated form is then leeched of metal ions in the coating, and the form is overcoated with a second elastomeric layer. The overcoated layer is thinner in the part where it overlies the leeched coating. The gloves find particular usefulness in delicate operations such as those performed by ophthalmologists.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical dispenser includes a housing (4), containing two pharmaceutical cartridges (32,34), slidably mounted to a sliding body (100). A replaceable needle manifold assembly (10) is mounted to the housing and fluidly couples the cartridges with a hypodermic needle at a common exit. The sliding body is part of a reciprocating drive assembly used to drive a pair of drive stems (88) against the pistons (96, 98) of the cartridges, thus forcing predetermined amounts of the pharmaceuticals out the needle. The movement of the sliding body between retracted and post-injection positions remains constant. However, the amounts and proportions of the pharmaceuticals injected during the delivery stroke is chosen by the user using stroke adjusters (182) carried by the sliding body. A bistable status flag (186) is mounted to the sliding body to indicate when the sliding body is in the post-injection and the retracted positions. The dosage adjustments are made when the sliding body is in the post-injection position. If a dose selected is more than is available, the sliding body is prevented from moving to the retracted position so that the status flag is not tripped.
