Patent EP-0056990-B1 (EP)
IPC: B25C1/08
Filed: 1982-01-21
Granted: 1987-11-11
Abstract: A fastener applying tool is disclosed, powered by the gases produced from internal combustion of a fuel and air mixture. A piston connected to a fastener driver is slidably mounted within a cylinder to move reciprocally downwardly and upwardly through a driving and a return stroke. A combustion chamber is formed at the upper end of the cylinder. A compression chamber is formed at the lower end of the cylinder. A spark plug powered by a piezo-electric firing device, is located within the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber features a set of fan blades driven by an electric motor which is continuously in operation when the tool is in use. A main valve mechanism actuated by a set of lifting rods which are moved upwardly and downwardly when the tool is moved toward and away from the workpiece, is used to control the flow of fresh air through the combustion chamber. When the combustion chamber is isolated from the atmosphere and the fuel and air are thoroughly mixed, the spark plug is fired to explode the fuel and air mixture and force the piston through its driving stroke. The rapid discharge of combustion gases at the end of the driving stroke produces a thermal vacuum within the combustion chamber. Additional air supplied to the lower face of the piston from the atmosphere forces the piston through its return stroke.

Patent EP-0096833-B1 (EP)
IPC: B65H51/20
Filed: 1983-06-07
Granted: 1987-12-09
Abstract: A device for accumulating a thin fiber, such as an optical fiber. Line accumulating members are provided around which a fiber is drawn and wound. The fiber is diverted from its path by a plurality of guide wheels, one or more of which are attached to a shaft which causes the guide wheels to rotate about the line accumulating members. At the same time, the guide wheels which wind the fiber are caused to move laterally relative to the line accumulating members to evenly distribute the fiber around the line accumulating members. This is accomplished by mechanically coupling the assembly for laterally moving the guide wheels to the assembly which rotates them about the line accumulating members. The device is designed to accomplish this while the line accumulating members are fixed to the body of the device. This results in a line accumulating device which is compact and simple.

Granted: 1989-03-15
Abstract: A housing (110) defines an enlarged central bore (162), from which protrudes a multi-conduit nipple (126). An elastomeric seal (128) flexibly joins the inner end of the nipple to the outer end of a respective sliding seat (116), the inner end of the seat being adapted to slide longitudinally within the central bore, whereby the elastomeric seal located is subjected to a shearing action as the nipple is pivotally deflected relative to the housing. One or more piston disks (174, 176) extend across the enlarged central bore so as to define a series of individual pressure chambers (182, 184, 186). A plurality of hollow cylindrical sleeves (188) extend through the disks, with the interior of each sleeve functioning as a continuation of a respective conduit through the connector. Preferably, for "N" conduits, there will be N sleeves and (N-1) pressure disks defining N pressure chambers, whereby there is provided for each conduit a corresponding pressure chamber and an individual pressure equalizing aperture (204) may be provided between the interior of each pressure chamber and its corresponding sleeve. Any difference in pressure between two pressure chmabers will tend to force the pressure disk therebetween in the direction of the pressure differential, until the disk is in contact with the remote end of the chamber having the lower pressure. Accordingly, the compressive forces exerted on the flexible seals will be determined by the maximum pressure present. Furthermore, because the forces are symmetric about the connector's central longitudinal axis, the seat will not have any tendency to bind as it slides within the central bore.

Abstract: The certain quantity of light energy sufficient to effect lifelessness in each of a particular type of hairs, such as is found in a face, arm or back, is provided to the tip of a hand held probe each time a switch is closed, independent of the duration of the switch closure. This relieves the electrologist from having to manually count times, or the number of pulses of light energy applied to a hair body, to effect lifelessness therein. Such counting has been a major part of the photoepilation procedure, and a burden on the electrologist's faculties. In one embodiment, actuating a foot switch provides a series of timed and spaced pulses of light energy for a period, which is selectable by rotating a wiper of a variable resistor-capacitor circuit. The sum of the energies of the pulses over the selected period equals the certain quantity of light energy. In another embodiment, depressing one of four foot switches provides one of four fixed periods of light pulses. In both embodiments, the certain quantity of light energy is first determined for the hair type and then that certain quantity is used for all the hairs of that type to be removed.
