Abstract: A skate boot is described, having a plastic overlay sewn or otherwise secured to the boot of the skate, wrapping around the heel of the boot from the medial to the lateral side of the ankle.  The overlay increases the rigidity of the rear of the skate, to restrict pronation and supination, while adding impact resistance.  Preferably, in order to permit dorsal and plantar flexion, the plastic overlay has several cut-out areas which allow for a controlled amount of flexion about a lateral axis, namely a heel flex cut-out area and side flex cut-out areas on either side in the instep area.          Flexible inserts are preferably installed in the cut-out areas, to maintain extra impact protection while permitting flexion.

Patent CA-2091130-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHNEIDER SCOTT W
IPC: F16J3/02
Filed: 1993-03-05
Abstract: The invention provides a pressure relief device for  aerosol  containers  that  may be  subject  to  high internal pressures. The pressure relief device is a small plug formed of a rubber material. The plug has first and second bores extending inwardly from each end and defining between them a thin integral diaphragm separating the bores.  A groove  extends  circumferentially  around  the device, and one end of the device is tapered so that it can be forced into a hole in the bottom of an aerosol container. The area and thickness of the diaphragm can be varied to control the pressure at which the diaphragm will rupture to relieve excess pressures in the container. The rupturable diaphragm is protected from damage during the insertion process, and when the container is on store shelves, by being located near the center of the device, protected by the bores on each side of the diaphragm.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE    An endless track conveyor apparatus having steps (1, 2) is driven by a drive chain (6) circulating along an endless travelling track (A, B ---- M, N, A) consisting of an ascending section, a descending section, and U-turn sections connecting these ascending and descending sections.  This endless track conveyor apparatus includes a driven medium consisting of a number of piled-up slats (50), each of which is swingably supported on a conveyor frame.  This driven medium engages with teeth provided on either the upper or the lower side of a chain link of the drive chain (6) provided at the ascending section (C-D) of the travelling track.  The passive medium transmits the drive power of the drive chain (6) to the conveyor frame; therefore, the endless track conveyor apparatus travels along the travelling track.  On the other hand, at the descending section (J-K) of the travelling track, the load acting on the conveyor apparatus is converted into rotational motion.  This rotational force is then reversed by a reversal transmission mechanism (8, 90-92, 107, 108) to transmit this rotational force to a rotational axis (105) which drives the drive chain (6).
