Title: Method and apparatus for cutting of elastomeric materials
Inventor: BECKER MICHAEL LEE
IPC: B26D7/08
Filed: 1995-08-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) for cutting an elongated body of elastomeric material includes a tensioned wire (12) which is oscillated in a generally up and down motion while traversing through the elastomeric material. The wire acts as a cutting blade and prepares the cut surface of the elastomeric material to improve splices.

Title: A collecting chamber for a cleaning appliance
Inventor: WOOD RALPH MICHAEL
IPC: A47L9/16
Filed: 2007-05-03
Granted: 2011-07-13
Abstract: A cleaning appliance includes a main body and a collecting chamber releasably held on the main body. The collecting chamber includes a closure member which is movable between a closed position and an open position in which the collecting chamber can be emptied and an actuating member adapted and arranged to release the collecting chamber from the main body and, when the collecting chamber is released from the main body, to release the closure member from the closed position. By providing such an arrangement, a single actuating member can be used to release the collecting chamber from the main body of the cleaning appliance and also to open the closure member to empty the collecting chamber. A single actuating member is less complex, requires less space and is more intuitive for a user to operate.

Title: Process for decreasing of co2-emission in combusting natural gas or hydrocarbon gas's release of energy
Inventor: HAUGSTEN KJELL
IPC: F16L/
Filed: 1992-12-11
Abstract: In order to enrich natural gas or other hydrocarbon gases with hydrogen, thus reducing the carbon content and thereby achieving a reduction or elimination of the discharge of carbon dioxide during combustion of the gases, a pyrolytic process is conducted in the feed stream for the natural gases or hydrocarbon gases which are to be burned. The gas is passed through a reactor in which it is decomposed at least partially into a carbon constituent and a hydrogen constituent. The carbon constituent is removed to a desired level. Any remaining constituent together with the hydrogen constituent is conveyed to the combustion process while the removed carbon constituent is conveyed out of the process for separate application. The pyrolytic process can be carried out on the entire stream or only on a partial stream.
