Title: Improvements relating to clamping screws
IPC: F16B2/06
Filed: 1994-11-03
Abstract: A screw clamping apparatus includes a shank and a drive member for exerting a driving force on a shank to screw the same into a bore to exert a clamping force on an article. The shank is provided to shear once a predetermined turning torque from the drive member, and hence clamping force, is achieved and the plane of shear can be accurately determined relative to the surface of the article on which the bore is formed and into which the shank is screwed. This is an advantage over the conventional clamping screw which is provided to shear at one fixed weakened location and, when sheared can leave an undesirable protruding portion above the surface of the article. The screw clamping apparatus of this invention allows one size shank to be used for clamping articles to different sizes and the position of the planar shear can be located at a position along the length of the shank, thereby eliminating the occurrence of protrusions when shear occurs.

Title: Releasable blocking arrangements
IPC: F16H59/04
Filed: 1999-02-23
Abstract: The gear lever is pivotted, such as by a ball and socket arrangement, in the upper end of a housing. The upper part 5A of the gear lever carries a sleeve which has a slot 46 through which extends a pin 48 rigid with the gear lever. The sleeve 34 carries an enlarged platform 44 on which the lower end of a compression spring 50 is seated, the upper end of the spring 50 engaging the pin 48. The platform (44) is thus normally in a position below the upper end of a wall 10A upstanding from the top of the housing. To engage reverse gear, the driver raises the sleeve on the gear lever to allow the platform 44 to be clear of the wall 10A, thereby allowing the gear lever (5) to move into the reverse gear position. Upon release of the sleeve, a sloping undersurface 54 of the platform 44 makes contact with a similarly sloping surface 56 of the wall 10A. These sloping surfaces facilitate movement of the gear lever out of the reverse gear position.

Title: Method and apparatus for determining flow rates
IPC: E21B47/10
Filed: 1999-07-09
Abstract: A fiber optic sensor system provides sufficient thermal information to determine the mass flow rates of produced fluids within a well bore, using an optical fiber placed within or adjacent to the well bore without interference with production or prejudicing the integrity of the well. Mass flow rates of fluid in a conduit ( 20 ) located in a heat sink differing in temperature from the fluid are determined by obtaining a distributed temperature profile ( 32 ) of fluid flowing along a length of conduit ( 15 ) by using optical data obtained from a length of optical fiber in thermal contact therewith, obtaining a profile of the heat sink temperature external to the conduit, and deriving mass flow rates of fluids in the conduit from the said profiles and from measured thermal transfer parameters.

Title: Sound-absorbing adapter made of mineral cotton for silencers, components and application of it and method for producing such adapters
Inventor: BISSINGER FRIDOLIN
IPC: F01N1/24
Filed: 1996-03-29
Abstract: An absorption member (40) is formed as a board-type shaped article, particularly a punched member, which is made up of bound mineral wool and comprises at least one recess (46) for passage of an inner pipe (22) of a muffler (2). For the case that it is not possible to slip it onto the inner pipe (22) in an axial direction, a parting slit (47) is introduced at the periphery of the recess (46) at which the recess (46) may be bent open to receive the inner pipe. It was surprisingly found that the quite considerable deformation required for this purpose nevertheless does not result in disadvantageous destructions of the material structure, apparently because the deformation distributes more or less homogeneously over the entire inner periphery of the recess (46), whereby great deformation paths may be obtained at low stress peaks. The board-type design of the absorption members comprising opposite parallel major surfaces (52) as well as its design as a punched member further contribute to good, non-destructive deformability, as its formation from a mineral wool board as a punched member ensures the overwhelming majority of fibers being oriented transversely with respect to the bending axis and thus counteracts gaping fissures. It is thereby sufficiently ensured that following its closing around the inner pipe (22), a resilient return movement of the material takes place whereby the parting slit is closed, such that any subsequent work for entirely filling the inner cavity of the muffler (2) with mineral wool is avoided. <IMAGE>

Patent IT-8123785-D0 (IT)
Inventor: BRAUNE GERHARD
IPC: F16C27/04
Filed: 1981-09-04
Abstract: In a bearing assembly supporting the free end of a drive shaft, a carrier for enabling axial motion of the assembly to accommodate thermal expansion of the shaft during extended power-transmission operations has a meandering cross-section with a thin U-shaped central or middle section and a pair of thick-walled Z-shaped peripheral sections. The sections are annular and together define a central wide groove and a pair of flanking narrow grooves. The inner Z-shaped section is attached to the outer race of a bearing whose other race is rigid with the shaft, while the outer Z-shaped section is fastened to a housing. The thin walls of the central carrier section permits a limited axial movability of the bearing assembly, while the annular shapes of the carrier sections, in particular the thick sections, inhibit axial or transverse motion of the shaft. A radial face of the inner Z-shaped carrier section defines, together with an inner surface of the housing, a gap which receives oil from a lubricating sump in the housing, the oil in the gap serving to damp axial shocks and vibrations in the shaft arising from the load.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for erecting walls made of glass structural bricks and a joint-lining in which the said bricks are built up with the joint-mortar, if necessary strengthened with reinforcing elements, with substantially horizontal and vertical joints, brick by brick, from bottom to top of the wall and the joints therein are lined, in connection with which, and for the purpose of reducing the need for skilled masons to such an extent that correct laying of the glass bricks may also be carried out by unskilled and untrained labor, and so that the amount of equipment required at the work-site may be considerably reduced or completely eliminated, provision is made, according to the invention, for the respective outer and inner linings of the horizontal and vertical joints to be applied, whereupon the lining of at least one horizontal joint, possibly after inspection of the reinforcing rods between the said joint-linings, is used as a lost outer shuttering for the joint-mortar and serves thereafter as a retainer for the glass bricks which are placed upon the linings of the horizontal joints and against the linings of the vertical joints, thus forming, together with the joint-linings, mould-cavities for the joint-mortar to be poured into the joints.
Patent IT-8744009-D0 (IT)
Inventor: BENELLI PAOLO
IPC: F41A9/00
Filed: 1987-03-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to smooth-bore guns having a tubular magazine and an operating system either semiautomatic indifferently of the inertial type, of the gas intake type or of the recoiling barrel type, or manual pump-operated or convertible from one system to the other, relating essentially to a new cartridge feed system adapted to these types of firearms. The invention comprises a new cartridge descent lever (1) which causes the cartridges (15) to pass from the magazine tube (16) into the barrel (22), either automatically or manually. For the feeding with semiautomatic operation of the firearm, part of the energy of the spring of the hammer (18) of the firearm is used to cause the vertical rotation of the cartridge descent lever (1) so that a cartridge (15) exits from the magazine tube (16). For the feeding with manual pump operation of the firearm, the same movement is caused by the bolt (31) when it opens manually, by means of the cocking rod, for the expulsion of the case in the barrel (22). Finally, for the manual change of the cartridge (15) in the barrel (22) the same movement can be caused by the hand of the shooter which, with the finger which presses the trigger (17), finds, in an easily accessible position, a tab (44) of the cartridge descent lever (1) protruding from the lower level of the body of the firearm. In all the cases described above, the successive passage in the barrel (22) of the cartridge (15), exiting from the magazine tube (16), occurs in a conventional manner for the type of firearm considered. In the various operating systems all the movements of the new cartridge descent lever (1) are in any case synchronized and compatible with the used operation without the need for adjustments.

IPC: H01M50/172
Filed: 1987-10-09
Abstract: According to the invention a flat lid for lead-acid accumulators is manufactured with elastic seats for the connection of the poles. Around each opening (4; 31) for the passage of the poles (5; 23) of an accumulator there is an elastic diaphragm (6; 27) the longitudinal profile of which is suited to make it elastically deformable in its axial direction. A pole (5; 23) of the accumulator is connected with the diaphragm by means of the ring-shaped seat (8; 20) being present on the end opposed to the area (19; 30) for the connection with the lid (1; 40).   If a lengthening of the pole (5; 23) of the accumulator eventually occurs during its life-span, it will be absorbed by the deformation of the diaphragm (6; 27) so that the lid (1; 40) will not be subjected to stresses which might damage or disconnect it with serious consequences for the accumulator.
