Abstract: Abstract A process for producing ethanol is described which includes the steps of:  (a)  continuously moving a feedstock slurry of starch and acid through a high intensity tubular starch hydrolyzer to produce a hydrolyzate in fluid form containing glucose, (b) fermenting the glucose-containing fluid to form a fermentation product containing ethanol, (c) distilling the fermentation product to separate the ethanol from a distillation residue containing non-fermented carbo-hydrate materials and, (d) recycling at least part of the obtained distillation residue as part of the starch and acid slurry feedstock to the hydrolyzer whereby a substantial portion of the recycled non-fermented carbo-hydrate materials is hydrolyzed together with the starch to a fermentable glucose-containing fluid.

Abstract: ABSTRACT         The invention relates to a closing device for flexible containers made from tube-or bag-shaped semi-finished products for the transporting and storing of free-flowing or pourable goods, comprising a clamping device of several rods which can be fixed in position in relation to one another.  Known closing devices have the disadvantage that they consist of a relatively large number of individual parts, which makes the handling difficult and increases the susceptibility to trouble.  So as to make available an im-proved closing device the invention proposes that the clamping device comprises a winding rod or wrapping bar provided with a slot, wherein the upper part and the lower part of the container can be pushed into the slot and, by turning these parts over at least two times around the edges of the wrapping bar formed by the slot, can be wound on tightly and without folds by at least 270°, and wherein the wrapping bar is prevented from unwinding by at least one other rod or unwrapping preventing means.  The latter may be formed by a sleeve which can be pushed onto the wrapping bar and engages firmly around the wound-on container opening, said sleeve when pushed on being fixed in position in such a manner that it cannot turn in relation to the wrapping bar.  This ensures a quick and reliable fixing-of-position of the container opening which has been wound onto the wrapping bar.

Abstract: ABSTRACT         A brake actuation assembly 10 having a master cylinder 12 attached to a stationary wall  (14) of a vehicle and a power assist apparatus 16.  Linkage 66 connects a movable wall 125 in the power assist apparatus 16 with pistons 64 and 68 in chambers 60 and 62 in the master cylinder 12.  A valve 133 responds to an input from an operator to allow a pressure differential to be created across wall 125. The pressure differential moves the wall 125 while at the same time the linkage moves pistons 64 and 68 to pressurize fluid in the master cylinder 12.  An adjustment mechanism 82 acts on the piston 68 to control the timing of the interruption of fluid communication between a reservoir 46 and chambers 60 and 62 as a direct function of movement of wall 125.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           A method, composition and containerized product for use in preventing the disease of mastitis in dairy cows and other animals.  The invention employs a disinfectant composition in the form of an aerosol spray which applies disinfectant to the teat while at the same time chilling the teat, particularly at the lower end where the teat sphincter muscle is located.  Use of the present disinfectant composition, which contains an aerosol propellant such as dimethyl ether, results in chilling temperatures of about 25° to 35° F being attained on the exterior surface and orifice end of the teat.  By such treatment, the teat sphincter is caused to contract and close the teat orifice, thus reducing the incidence of infection.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure In a cable television (CATV) system improved upstream data communication is provided by the use of preferred frequencies. Harmonics of downstream video and audio carrier signals arising from cable discontinuities produce common mode nonlinear distortion. Cable discontinuities caused by a loose, defective or corroded connector operate as a downstream mixing diode. The cross-and intermodulation products thus produced are avoided in the present invention by the use of upstream frequencies displaced from these harmonics. In a preferred embodiment, two harmonically-related upstream carriers generated by a single signal source and centered between adjacent harmonic noise peaks provide reliable upstream data channels in a two-way CATV system. In another arrangement, each subscriber terminal transmits upstream in an alternating manner, first at one frequency and then at a second frequency, until an acknowledge signal is received from the CATV headend.

The handle section changes over into a first end portion (2) which has been shaped into an essentially circular shield (9).Centric to the shield (9) there is arranged a shaped protrution (3) which has longitudinally the profile of a ship's hull, so that cutting edges are created which are oriented diagonally to the longitudinal extent of the orange peeler. At its second end portion (6) there is arranged a peeling blade (8) which ends in a quarter circle to round-off the blade. The cutting edge of the blade has wave-like notches to facilitate the lifting of the peel and    the fluffy white skin that is located between the skin and the meat of the orange.

Abstract: ABSTRACT    A plurality of sealed blood sample tubes are housed in a rack and a plurality of these racks are vertically stacked, with the sample tubes lying horizontally.  The racks are successively deposited onto a horizontal conveyor belt which is housed in and moves longitudinally on a table that rocks around its longitudinal axis to mix the samples in a semi-inverting mode as a rack is stepped from the stack to a sample aspiration station and/or thereat.  The aspiration station preferably includes a sample segmenting and diluting valve and a sample identification reader.  Aspiration is accomplished by pushing a sample tube partially out from the carrier rack and onto a seal piercing tip of the aspiration probe.  The tube then is returned to the rack.  The other tubes in that rack similarly are aspirated after the rack is stepped to align each tube with the aspiration probe, with table rocking and sample mixing accompanying each advancing step of the rack.  After a rack has advanced through the aspiration station, it is stacked out of the way.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         Telescopic members which are expanded and contracted by a fluid pressure controlled by a steering mechanism are integrally connected to suspension springs.  When a vehicle makes a turn, the body is caused to decline toward the turning center side due to the telescopic movement of the telescopic members according to the steering operation. The fluid pressure may be fed from a hydraulic cylinder including a piston associated for movement with the steering mechanism.  Alternatively, fluid pressurized by a pump may be fed through a controlling valve which is actuated in response to the steering mechanism.  At a time when the vehicle makes a turn, a satisfactory steering sense similar to a motorcycle can be obtained.
