Abstract: A hand held shower including a spray head operable to selectively discharge a continuous spray or a cyclically interrupted pulsating spray. The spray head contains two separate groups of discharge orifices, one group operable to discharge a continuous spray, and the second group operable to discharge a cyclically interrupted pulsating spray. The spray head comprises a housing forming a chamber; a water inlet plate having two sets of supply orifices, a radially outer steady spray supply set and a radially inner pulsating spray supply set, closing the forward end of the chamber and fixedly mounted in the housing; a face plate having a wall confronting the water inlet plate and having two sets of supply perforations therein, a radially outer steady spray supply set and a radially inner pulsating spray supply set; the face plate being mounted for limited arcuate movement with respect to the water inlet plate so that either the radially outer steady spray supply perforations can be aligned with the radially outer steady spray supply orifices in the water inlet plate, or so that the radially inner pulsating spray supply perforation can be aligned with the radially inner pulsating spray supply orifice in the water inlet plate. The radially outer perforations of the face plate are in communication with an annular chamber containing the continuous spray discharge orifices. The radially inner perforations of the face plate are in communication with a cylindrical chamber disposed radially inwardly of the annular chamber. A spinner having radially extending vanes and a partially closed front end is rotatably mounted in said cylindrical chamber. Flow through the radially inner perforations impinges upon the vanes to drive the spinner in rotation. Rotation of the spinner, due to its partially closed end, provides a cyclical flow to a group of discharge orifices in a spinner cover which is fixedly mounted over the open, front end of the cylindrical chamber. This cyclical flow through these discharge orifices provides a pulsating spray.

Abstract: A low-aspect ratio propeller system is provided with a multiple ring structure formed with a plurality of circular or non-circular, annular, narrow equivalent air foil rings which are held by rails in a predetermined relationship with the propeller blades. The upstream ring is located downstream from the tip vortex of the propeller within the axial span of the propeller. One or more additional downstream-located rings are used so as to provide at least one annular multiple ring-defined pump aperture through which peripheral vortices generated by the propeller blades or fan blades may enhance the mass flow. In one propeller system, a low-aspect-ratio propeller is employed with high blade angles of attack and non-stall capability to generate strong vortices which enhance the beneficial effect of the multiple ring structure. These vortices increase thrust because their induction action on the rings increase beneficial ring flow circulation. Augmented ring flow reduces the velocities in the expanding wake by increasing the mass flow. The destruction of tip and root vortices reduces noise. The multiple ring structure also serves as a guard to protect people and animals against the rotating propeller. A plurality of embodiments are shown and described.

Abstract: A method for detecting mutations, such as a single base change or an addition or deletion of about one to four base pairs, is based on the use of an immobilized DNA mismatch-binding protein, such as MutS, which binds to a nucleic acid hybrid having a single base mismatch or unpaired base or bases, thereby allowing the detection of mutations involving as little as one base change in a nucleotide sequence. Such a method is useful for diagnosing a variety of important disease states or susceptibilities, detecting the presence of a mutated oncogene and for isolating or removing by affinity chromatography duplex DNA molecules containing mismatches such as error-containing molecules in PCR-amplified DNA samples. Also provided are kits useful for practicing the methods of the present invention.

On the valve and the neck ring planar, parallel, opposite ring faces are formed between which the sealing ring. From the ring face of the valve, a cylindrical projection protrudes and extends downwards to the ring face of the neck ring. Between the valve and the neck ring there is a slot space through which an overpressure in the container can be relieved when the valve is being dismounted. The projection serves the purpose of preventing this slot space from being closed for flow of gas by some of the sealing ring which is squeezed up into the space by the gas overpressure and preventing this space from being relieved, so that an operator, when dismounting a valve is exposed to the risk of being hit by the valve, if this, by the gas overpressure, is being thrown out into the room in the very moment when the valve releases its engagement with the neck ring.

Abstract: A method is provided for the treatment of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil by chemical hydrolysis and/or oxidation of the hydrocarbons in the hydrocarbon-contaminated soil. The method includes conditioning lime with a hydrophobizing agent, the essential component of which is a mixture of particular fatty acids, in a particular way. The thus-conditioned lime is intimately blended with physically-preconditioned moist, hydrocarbon-contaminated soil, under conditions of high shear, the degree of blending being at least near microscopic level. A charge of such blended conditioned lime/soil mixture is conveyed to an enclosed reaction vessel, either continuously or batchwise, and hydration of the lime in the blended conditioned lime/soil charge is carried out. The heat of the hydration reaction is retained within the vessel. Substantially simultaneously, air and/or oxygen-enriched air is introduced into the reaction vessel, together with steam and/or water, thereby to effect a flameless, intermediate-temperature oxidation of the hydrocarbons or of their hydrolysed degradation products. These products are passed through the blended conditioned lime/soil charge at a progressively increasing temperature. Decontaminated soil product is discharged from the reaction vessel and may be cooled and then passed through a zone where it may be sprayed with a surfactant. The decontaminated soil product is passed to a blender where it is mixed with sufficient water to provide a substantially dust-free product. <IMAGE>
