Title: Improvements in high speed floor burnisher
Inventor: PALMER GARY E
IPC: A47L11/164
Filed: 1989-07-19
Granted: 1990-03-29
Abstract: A driver assembly (24) for the pad (35) of a high speed floor burnishing machine includes a flexible back plate (29) having a peripheral retaining skirt (30) which centers the pad (35) on the driver assembly (24) and also prevents the edges of the pad growing or expanding to a larger circum­ference during high speed rotary burnishing action. The backing plate (29) adds stiffness to the pad (35) when rotating at high speed, and it promotes uniform contact of the pad with the floor at the outer radial extremities of the pad where the velocity is greatest and the polishing is most effective. The pad (35) and driver assembly (24) are surrounded by a shroud (17) which is continuously evacuated by radial air flow generated by the motion of the driver assembly which includes a finned hub (25, 26). The air flow carries debris generated by the burnisher to a collection bag or filter without leaving the machine.

Title: Process for coating glass
Inventor: GRUNDY BARRY THOMAS
IPC: C03C17/00
Filed: 1989-10-04
Granted: 1992-07-09
Abstract: A process for coating a moving ribbon of hot glass by chemical vapour deposition comprises establishing a first flow of a first reactant gas along the hot glass surface substantially parallel to the direction of movement of the glass, establishing a second flow of a second reactant gas as a turbulent flow at an angle to the glass surface, introducing said second flow into said first flow at said angle, while avoiding upstream flow of said second reactant gas in said first flow, directing the combined gas flow along the surface of the hot glass as a turbulent flow, and thereafter withdrawing the used coating gas away from the hot glass. The process enables a substantially uniform coating over 200 nm thick to be deposited in a short coating zone, and is useful for applying metal oxide coatings, for example fluorine doped tin oxide coatings, to hot glass.

Filed: 1999-09-14
Granted: 2003-06-12
Abstract: Light-emitting means for emitting a light beam for sterilizing a gaming medium is disposed in a gaming machine itself at a position where the light beam irradiates a stored gaming medium or a passing gaming medium, the light-emitting means being shielded from eyes of a player. In particular, the gaming machine is a ball-shooting gaming machine or a coin or medal gaming machine. Specifically, the light-emitting means is disposed at a position where the light beam irradiates a gaming medium flowing into storage means within the gaming machine or a gaming medium stored in the storage means. Specifically, the light-emitting means is disposed at a position where the light beam irradiates a gaming medium stored in a tray located outside the gaming machine. Preferably, the light beam is an ultraviolet ray. As a consequence, the antibacterial specification of the gaming machine becomes more effective, and an antibacterial specification is newly realized in the case of the coin or medal gaming machine. <IMAGE>
