Abstract: The method involves pulling, longitudinal separating, and expanding devices, in order to replace underground lead or plastics piping. The old pipe (1) is cut by a knife-like cutter (6) mounted on a support (5) which is pulled along inside the pipe by a cable (4). The support is connected to an external head (7) which can travel over the pipe, and which may be conical. The head is coupled to a sleeve or production pipe (2), through which the split sections of the old pipe can be removed. The sleeve allows a new production pipe to be introduced simultaneously.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a ciagrette substitute for administering a dose of nicotine. More specifically, the present invention is directed to a nicotine-containing dosage-form comprising a holder member which may be used as part of an effective smoking cessation program or in situations where smoking is undesirable or not permitted. The dosage form is configured as a dosage form having a nicotine-containing composition attached to a holder member. Nicotine is released from the dosage form and absorbed through the intra-oral mucosal surfaces as the nicotine-containing composition releases nicotine within a user's mouth. The holder member facilitates insertion and removal of the dosage form into and out of a user's mouth. The user can selectively insert and remove the dosage form as desired to selectively control the release of nicotine. In addition, the user can insert and remove the dosage form in a manner which meets the user's psychological need or desire for ritualistic oral stimulation similar to cigarette smoking.

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting an object adjacent an elevator door includes a housing (47) mounted at an upper edge of a car door opening (38) and in which are mounted a plurality of short range detector pairs (50) and a plurality of long range detector pairs (53). Each short range detector pair includes a transmitter (14,25,40) for generating a relatively short range infrared beam (18,27,42) toward a path of travel (16) of an elevator door (17) across the door opening and a short range receiver (15,26,41) for detecting a reflection (31) of the beam from a facing surface (17b) of the door and generating a short range beam detection signal. Each long range detector pair is positioned adjacent an associated one of the short range detector pairs and includes a transmitter (19,28,43) for generating a relatively long range infrared beam (21,30,45) across the path of travel and a receiver (20,29,44) for detecting a reflection (23) of the beam from an object (22) near the door opening and generating a long range beam detection signal. A control (11) is connected to each detector pair for turning on the transmitters and for reopening the closing door in response to the long range beam detection signal. The control responds to each short range detection signal during closing of the door to disable the associated long range transmitter and responds to termination of the short range detection signal during opening of the door to enable the associated long range transmitter to prevent detection of the moving door by the long range receivers from reopening the door.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for producing a seasoning sauce, in which a microbial starter culture is cultured on a substrate containing an animal protein source to give a koji and is then mashed and further fermented. According to the invention, it has surprisingly been found that soy sauce technology can be successfully carried out on an animal raw material, without the disadvantages conventionally resulting in this case occurring, if the raw material used is smoked pork rind, in particular a smoked rind residue as arises in the production of smoked ham, preferably together with a vegetable protein source and/or carbohydrate source. This provides a soy sauce having a novel flavour with a full meaty to grilled flavour.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for sealing seams between adjacent sheets of flooring which define an upwardly facing, elongated groove where they meet. A conventional hand-held portable seam welding gun (22) has a body (24) defining a longitudinal axis (26). A heat concentration nose (34) is mounted on a heat conducting member. A heating tip mounting post (42) projects at an angle of at least about fifteen degrees, from the longitudinal axis of the seam welding gun. A hollow heating tip (44) employed on the mounting post (42) is provided with a forwardly directed, upturned toe (58) having a concave, downwardly facing groove therein forward of the front extremity of a sealant dispensing mouth. Also, a heating duct extends between the melting chamber of the heating tip and an orifice located behind the rear extremity of the sealant dispensing mouth. The welding gun employs a mobile, stabilizing guide (66) formed with a pair of laterally spaced outboard rollers (80,82) and a seam follower (84) located midway between the rollers and a track follower that rides in the groove between adjacent flooring sheets. An adapter (86) secures the guide to the welding gun body. A releasable fastener between the guide and the adapter holds the welding gun at a desired angle to the floor.
