Title: Transfer switch mechanism
Inventor: SMITH GEORGE A
IPC: H01H3/26
Filed: 1994-09-27
Abstract: A transfer switch mechanism is provided for operating the handles of a pair of circuit interrupters. The transfer switch mechanism has a lever arm movable between advanced and retracted positions, the lever arm having a gripping portion permitting handhold for manual operation. The lever arm turns an axle via a ratchet assembly with pawls that permit the axle to turn in one direction but oppose movement of the axle in the direction counter to that direction. The axle turns a crank, and a pair of connecting rods have proximal ends coupled to the crank. The transfer switch mechanism further includes a pair of handle-engaging heads, each of which has opposed abutment surfaces that removably receive the handle of one or the other circuit interrupters between the opposed abutment surfaces. A base is fixed relative to the circuit interrupters and movably supports the lever arm and the handle-engaging heads. The connecting rods have distal ends respectively coupled to one of the two heads such that operation of the lever arm between the advanced and retracted positions causes the abutment surfaces to drive against the handles and thereby move the handles between operative positions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fully automated washing machine adapted to be provided with a purified water generating apparatus by which washing water supplied from a water supplying source can be cleansed or purified and then supplied to a washing tub. More particularly, the invention relates to a fully automated washing machine disposed with the purified water generating apparatus arranged between a water supply pipe and an outer tub for electro-depositing alkali metal ions, heavy metal ions and iron-like ions contained in the washing water and at the same time for generating in quantity in the washing water hydraulic seal ions having interfacial tension, thereby to supply the same to the outer tub. The fully automated washing machine thus constructed according to the present invention employing the purified water generating apparatus can electro-deposit the alkali metal ions, heavy metal ions, iron-like ions and the like contained in the washing water. The purified water having increased hydraulic seal ions to promote the interfacial tension in the washing water improves the washing efficiency and the use of detergent can be reduced for prevention of environmental pollution.

Title: Gravity flush urinal with integral tank
Inventor: SCHMIDT A ROBERT
IPC: E03D13/00
Filed: 1995-06-09
Abstract: A urinal assembly is provided having a urinal and a tank disposed on and integral with the urinal.  The tank includes a valve assembly that releases water from the tank to the urinal when flushing is desired.  The urinal and the tank include an aperture which allows water to flow through from the tank to the urinal when the flush valve is open.  The aperture is approximately 2 3/4 inches in diameter to provide a high flow rate.  The urinal assembly may be used with a supply pipe of small diameter, e.g.,  inch, thereby reducing the size and cost of the supply pipe that is typically required for use with other systems, i.e., flushometer operated urinals.  The tank operates by the force of gravity on the water within the tank obviating the need for expensive diaphragm or piston valve components.

Title: Equilization of charge on series connected cells or batteries
Inventor: PACHOLOK DAVID R
IPC: H02J7/00
Filed: 1995-09-08
Abstract: An equalizer for equalizing the charge on several series connected cells includes a capacitor and a pair of switching devices selectively connecting each cell across the capacitor.  The switching devices of each pair are sequentially turned ON and OFF such that each cell is alternately connected in sequence across the capacitor. The capacitor is charged to the voltage level of the most highly charged cell when the more highly charged cell is connected across the capacitor.  When a lesser charged cell is connected across the capacitor, the capacitor discharges into that cell, thereby increasing the charge on that cell. Equalization is carried out with very little power consumption by the equalizer, allowing charging to take place in a rapid manner.

Patent CA-2159320-A1 (CA)
Title: Device for Degassing Thermoplastics
Inventor: BACHER HELMUT
IPC: B29C48/74
Filed: 1994-06-08
Abstract: Disclosed is a device for degassing thermoplastics, the device having a first worm-conveyor zone for feeding in the material to be treated.  The plastified plastic material flows out of the housing of this worm-conveyor zone through a connecting channel to a filter and from there through an inlet aperture into the housing of a second worm-conveyor zone which conveys the material to an outlet.  Lying between the two equiaxial worm-conveyor zones is a seal zone which prevents the filter from being bypassed.  Immediately downstream of the inlet aperture is a baffle barrier which forces the stream of plastic into a tubular shape.  The baffle barrier can be adjusted relative to the inlet aperture in the longitudinal direction and has a cross-section which tapers towards the second worm-conveyor zone.  This shortens the migration path for gas bubbles from the plastic material and thus facilitates the degassing through the degassing aperture.
