IPC: G09F11/04
Filed: 1987-01-06
Abstract: Road traffic sign which is alterable in order to be able to show optionally two road signs with standarised shapes and colours. It has the form of a house with a front part (2') which is provided with an opening (23), which is covered by a window-pane (9') of a transparent, colourless, knock-resistant material. A disc is fitted in the house directly behind the front part. This disc is rotatable around a centre of rotation (17') which coincides with the centre of the road sign. The forward face of the front part and the part of the rotatable disc visible through the window consist, in two different positions in the case of the disc, of fields, figures or other symbols, which together in each of the two positions form the two standardised road signs.
Patent NO-166437-B (NO)
Inventor: TARVAINEN TEUVO RAINE
IPC: E02B15/10
Filed: 1987-12-08
Abstract: The invention relates to preventing oil damage in open water. The invention is based on the fact that the viscosity of oil changes as a function of temperature. Fig. 1 shows the operating principle. The catamaran-type vessel is provided with two cylinders (2) which are kept at a lower temperature than the water, using cooling units (5). The oil (7) floating in the water comes into contact with the cylinder (2), congeals and adheres to the surface of the cylinder. As the cylinder rotates, the oil is transported on the surface of the cylinder until it reaches a heated collection gutter (8) where it is collected. From the gutter it is directed into a collecting tank which is located in the vessel. The dimensions of the vessels, of the cylinders, and of the cooling unit can be chosen freely according to the conditions.

Abstract: 1,042,845. Electric motor driving arrangements. PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd. June 15, 1965 [June 18, 1964], No. 25237/65. Heading H2A. To ensure that a low-power self-starting synchronous motor rotates in the desired direction A, its rotor has an eccentric pin 8 pivoting a spring-loaded lever 9 whose two arms 11, 10 respectively support a weight 12 and provide a pawl which when the rotor rotates in the undesired direction co-operates with a fixed elastic, e.g. synthetic rubber ring 6 concentric with the rotor shaft 1. The loading spring 13 is shown as being of the pull-type, but alternatively may be a pressure spring acting on the other side of the lever 9, and the pawl 10 alternatively may be constructed to cooperate with the outer side of the ring 6. A stop pin 15 prevents the weight 12 contacting the ring 6, and if the opposite direction of rotation is desired, Fig. 4 (not shown), the lever 9 is reversed and the duty of the pins 14, 15 interchanged. The motor can be used in household appliances and record players.

Patent CH-621032-B (CH)
Inventor: DUCKWORTH CLIFFORD
IPC: D06B23/24
Filed: 1977-12-09
Abstract: In a process for pad-dyeing textile material in sheet form on a pad-mangle having a short-liquor trough using aqueous padding liquors which in addition to dyeing assistants contain dyes which develop an affinity for the fibre only on heating of the padding liquor to temperatures above 60 DEG C, the cold padding liquor is passed on the way to the pad-mangle trough through a continuous heater, raising it to the treatment temperature which is above 60 DEG C. A short-liquor (economy) pad-mangle usable for this purpose has a continuous heater situated in the liquor feed line between the reservoir tank and the short-liquor trough and is provided with a means for setting the temperature of the padding liquor flowing out of the continuous heater into the short-liquor trough. The process is of special relevance for the continuous pad-dyeing of cotton textiles, since it makes it possible, despite the single-stage method of operation, to achieve the same success as requires a multi-stage treatment in the case of conventional pigment padding processes.

Inventor: WHITENTON BAYLIS BOBBYE KAYE
IPC: B29C65/16
Filed: 2002-12-12
Granted: 2005-09-14
Abstract: Laser welding is used to attach a polyolefin air induction component to an elastomeric hose member. One of the hose or induction component includes a portion that is made from a transparent material. In one example, the hose includes a hose end portion that is formed from a transparent material. The transparent material is then positioned in an overlapping relationship to a tube received within an opening in the induction component, which acts as an absorbing component. Contour through transmission welding is used to generate a laser beam that passes through the transparent material, heats the absorbing component, which in turn heats the transparent material and forms a laser weld.
