Abstract: POWER TRANSMISSION          ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         A countershaft transmission has an input shaft and a coaxial output shaft which are disposed in parallel with a pair of countershafts.  The countershafts position and support a floating bearing support which is positioned to support ends of the input and output shafts.  The countershafts each have a selectively engageable clutch disposed thereon which selectively control the establishment of drive ratios between the input shaft and the respective countershafts.  A plurality of forward and reverse ratios are selectively established, between the input and output shafts through the countershafts, by selectively engaging a plurality of synchronizers. The synchronizers cooperate with a plurality of ratio gears on the countershafts and output shaft to establish the ratios.  The ratio gears that establish the lowest forward ratios are fully disengageable from their respective countershafts.

Title: Method for recovering oil from a subterranean oil containing formation
Inventor: DJABBARAH NIZAR F
IPC: E21B43/24
Filed: 1993-11-12
Abstract: The invention is a foam method for improving conformance during a steam flood or carbon dioxide flood in a subterranean, oil-containing formation penetrated by at least one injection well and at least one production well. In a steam flood oil recovery process, sweep efficiency is improved by injecting steam until steam breakthrough occurs at the production well after which a mixture of steam, a noncondensible gas, and an aqueous surfactant-starch solution is injected into the formation. The aqueous surfactant-starch solution forms a stable foam with the formation oil at formation conditions that reduce the permeability of the highly permeable steam swept zones thereby diverting the steam to other portions of the formation containing unswept oil. The starch is used as a partial substitute for the surfactant to improve the cost of the foam-forming mixture without reducing its effectiveness in increasing sweep efficiency.

Title: Packaging material having at least one line of weakness and process and apparatus for producing it
Inventor: ZIELKE HELMUT
IPC: B65D75/58
Filed: 1993-10-25
Abstract: A packaging material (21) has at least one line of weakness (23) consisting of weak points (25, 27) arranged at a distance in succession. For an essentially silent destruction of the line of weakness (23), there are zones of of reduced strength being preferably designed to merge continuously into one another as weak points (25, 27). The packaging material preferably consists of cellophane or of biologically degradable plastic foil. The zones of reduced strength can also consist of webs of varying size between perforations of a line of weakness. The invention thereby achieves the destruction of a line of weakness which is staggered in time and which allows an essentially silent opening of packs produced from the packaging material, especially those for articles of hygiene, such as tampons for feminine hygiene.

Title: Fibrous Food Casings Having Modified Release Properties and Methods of Manufacture
Inventor: VERSCHUEREN ERIC M J
IPC: A22C13/00
Filed: 1993-11-26
Abstract: Regenerated cellulose food packaging film, including fibrous food casings have modified cling properties fox packaging dry and semi-dry type sausage products, and particularly specialty dry sausage recipes. The cellulosic food casings have a fibrous reinforcement impregnated with a coating composition containing an admixture of a viscose solution and a food grade cationic thermosetting polymeric adhering agent. The coating composition is applied in a single step by injecting into the viscose solution before being extruded into the fibrous web. This assures both even distribution of the polymeric adhering agent in the web, as well as maintenance of a constant level of polymer being applied during the coating process. The degree of cling/adherence of the casing to the meat mass is more uniform aver the entire circumference of the tubular casing.

IPC: B23K37/06
Filed: 1994-06-03
Abstract: A joint container for forming a weld joint utilizing multiple  adjacent  metal  plates  which  are  spaced  apart  and positioned angularly to each other.  One of the plates forming the joint may extend continuously through the joints along a straight line.  At least first and second plates of the multiple plates may be at an acute angle to each other.  A dam member is placed in each of the spaces between each two adjacent plates.          The dam member between adjacent plates has a concave contour surface viewed in a direction toward the weld joint container.          Thereby stress inducing sharp corners in the finished weld joint are minimized due to the reduction of the angles of the corners provided by the contour of each dam surface when it engages one of the plates.  Also, the plates having ends at the joint have such ends cut parallel to and spaced from the plate extending continuously  straight  through  the  joint.  This  parallel relationship of the plate ends with the continuous plate also stress inducing sharp corners in the weld joint.

Abstract: A sensor (32) and method is provided for measuring one or more select components of a material (18). The method measures the components by emitting electromagnetic radiation (42) at the material (18) and detecting the intensity of the emerging radiation at the material at separate locations (36; 37) from the source (38).  The sensor (32) provides a radiation source (38) for emitting radiation (42) at a sheet (18), a plurality of detecting means (70-73, 82, 83, 90, 91, 98, 99), wherein the detecting means are offset from the source (38) substantially the same or unequally, for detecting radiation (42) after interaction with the sheet (18) and first and second reflectors (28, 30) for directing the radiation for multiple interactions with the sheet (18) when moving from the source aperture (34) to the detecting means. The invention can accurately measure the select components (e.g., moisture) of different grades of paper by eliminating the effects of the scattering power and determining absorption power at each band of the spectrum considered necessary for a particular measurement.
