Abstract: An improved hydraulic log splitter which includes a hydraulic reservoir 38 formed integrally with a frame 14 of the log splitter. Hydraulic fluid from the reservoir 38 is supplied by a pump 30 to a control valve 46. A fluid passage is open through the control valve 46 to a hydraulic intensifier 21 which includes a cylinder 24 and a piston 22 extendable from the cylinder. The piston 22 pushes a log 12 against a stationary splitting wedge 18. The piston 22 is urged toward a retracted position by a return spring 72 internal to the cylinder 24. When the control valve 46 is in other than an "extend" position, hydraulic fluid supplied to the control valve 46 is allowed to flow into a return conduit 48 back to the reservoir. In this condition, the pressure of the hydraulic fluid develops insufficient force to overcome the force exerted by the return spring 72, and the ram remains retracted. When the control valve 46 is placed in the "extend" position, fluid that flows to the return conduit 48 is blocked and the pressure in the hydraulic intensifier 21 rises to overcome the force of the spring 72 and advance the ram. A log 12 placed on the splitter is thus driven by the piston 22 to be split by the wedge 18. The wedge 18 is designed to force the log 12 against guide rails 36 during splitting. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vaginal suppository or other type of vaginal passary such as cream, foam or ointment, which contains as its active ingredients at least one pharmaceutically acceptable, topically safe antimicrobial agent, such as an agent selected from the group of benzalkonium chloride, cetylpyridinium chloride, chlorhexidine gluconate and povidone iodine, imidiazolidinyl urea and diazolidinyl urea and a viable colony of micro-encapsulated lactobacilli bacteria. The viable lactobacilli are included in the suppository in micro encapsulated form, which protects the bacteria during storage of the suppository from the action of the bacteriocidal agent. When exposed to the vaginal milieu the micro encapsulation breaks down sufficiently to release the lactobacilli bacteria. The lactobacilli bacteria serve to maintain or re-establish a healthy lactobacilli based flora on the vaginal wall, and excrete hydrogen peroxide and other bactericidins which suppress abnormal flora conditions that promote infections.

Date Nov. 23, 1995A jet actuator, particularly for actuating hydraulic apparatus such as rotating pulse sprinklers, comprises a nozzle for generating a free jet of water directed along a first longitudinal axis, the nozzle being located at the free end of a spout, the spout being coupled to a line of pressurized water by means of a rotatable joint having a second rotation axis that is transverse to the first longitudinal axis. A deflector is provided which can freely oscillate in a transverse direction between a first end position wherein the deflector lies completely outside the jet and a second end position wherein the deflector is immersed to the maximum extent in the jet so as to draw part of its energy. A support is provided for oscillably mounting the deflector on the spout to transfer the energy drawn from the jet to the spout to promote a stepwise movement thereof about the second rotation axis. The deflector has at least one main surface having a curved and convex shape suitable to laterally enter the jet while remaining substantially aligned with the jet, so as to generate a negative pressure force tending to move the deflector towards the interior of the jet upon initial oscillation and during steady-state oscillatory operation. The deflector has a secondary surface that is substantially flat and forms with respect to the curved main surface a solid angle that is relatively large so as to generate a reaction force with a component which is opposite to the negative pressure force produced on the curved main surface and tending to expel the deflector away from the jet thus starting and maintaining the steady-state operation.

Abstract: An audio signal in a hearing aid is enhanced by detecting the power of the desired audio signal and the power of the total audio signal, generating a power value and making a noise-reduction adjustment or no noise-reduction adjustment based on the power value. In one embodiment, the power value is a function of the total power of the audio signal. In a second embodiment the power value is a function of the ratio of:the power of the desired audio signal to the power of the total audio signal. When the noise reduction is accomplished with beamforming, the invention uses a direction estimate vector in combination with a beam intensity vector, which is based on the power value, to generate a beamforming gain vector. The direction estimate vector is scaled by the beam intensity vector; the product of the vectors is the beamforming gain vector. The beamforming gain vector is multiplied with the left and right signal frequency domain vectors to produce noise reduced left and right signal frequency domain vectors.

Abstract: An apparatus that provides for withdrawal of the liquid contents from a closed container (14) independent of the spatial orientation thereof, is described. The liquid withdrawal apparatus includes flexible withdrawal conduits (58) disposed inside the container and in fluid flow communication with external heat exchangers (144, 146). The heat exchangers serve to transfer heat to the withdrawn liquid to thereby provide a breathable gas mixture. The pick-up end of the withdrawal conduits (58) are weighted to ensure liquid withdrawal during changes in the orientation of the container while the outlet end of the tubes (62) communicates through septa (140, 142) that ensure there is little to no communication of pressure between the inside of the container and the heat exchangers, other than the fluid flow communication path provided by the conduits themselves. A pressure differential between the inside of the container and the external heat exchangers, normally brought about by an inhalation event of the user, provides the motive force for withdrawing the liquid contents from the container through the conduits.
