Abstract: APPARATUS FOR ROUTING LOGS Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for routing logs to various locations in a sawmill.  The logs are conveyed in end-to-end relation on a conveyor and pass beneath a rotatable log kicker unit having a series of radially extending arms which, when rotated, will kick the log laterally to either side of the conveyor for delivery to sawing operations.  Located at the downstream end of the log kicker unit is a movable gate disposed to be engaged by the end of the log as it is moved laterally by the log kicker to align the laterally discharged logs.  By moving the gate out of the conveying path, the log can be conveyed through the log kicker unit to a third delivery location.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE     A control system is described for activating a machine using magnetic signals encoded on a magnetic card, tape or equivalent member.  The magnetic signals are pulse-width-modulated and, in one embodiment, also sawtooth-modulated.  A means is provided which is responsive to the magnetic signals for generating a first and a second number.  The first number corresponds to the number of times the magnetic card is usable for activating a machine.  The second number is provided for identification and validation purposes.  Means are also provided for reducing the number of times the card can be used each time it is used to activate a machine and for visually displaying that number on a visual display device.  The use of skewed recording and repro-duction heads is also described for improving signal discrimina-tion and security against the usability of fraudulently produced magnetic cards.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure An apparatus for preventing "floating" of nuclear-reactor fuel assemblies due to hydraulic forces is disclosed.  The apparatus uses a holddown column made of the same material as the core barrel.  The column is positioned in a center guide-tube location in the fuel assembly in such a manner as to enable it either to slide within the center guide tube or, if the center guide tube is replaced by the column, to slide through openings in the spacer grids.  The lower end of the holddown column engages the lower end fitting of the fuel assembly, and the upper end of the column engages a flow plate to which holdown force is applied.  As a consequence of this arrangement, holddown force is transmitted from the flow plate through the holddown column to the lower end fitting.  Movement of the fuel assembly is thereby prevented without a compression load being applied to the fuel-assembly structure.  In addition, variations due to thermal expansion in the distance between the lower core plate and the upper core plate are largely made up for by corresponding variations in the holddown column because the holddown column and the core barrel can be made of the same material.

Abstract: HEAT EXCHANGER SUPPORT SYSTEM     A B S T R A C T         A mounting system to interconnect a gas turbine heat exchanger with a gas turbine includes three intercon-necting gas manifolds:  one to receive cool compressed air from the engine, one to receive hot exhaust gas from the engine, and one to communicate heated intake air to the engine.  The manifolds, acting in cooperation with a jointed support arm, allow the heat exchanger and the gas turbine to have differing thermal expansion properties.  Specifically, the air inlet manifold allows vertical translational motion toward and away from the engine, the exhaust gas inlet mani-fold allows for horizontal translational motion, while the air outlet manifold positioned between the other manifolds includes a trunnion arrangement allowing rotational motion.          The jointed support located at the opposite end of the engine from the air inlet manifold and the trunnion arrangement cooperate to control the resultant thermal expansion motion in the air outlet manifold and the exhaust gas inlet manifold.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Apparatus for detecting and/or indicating gas leakage and/or gas pressure build up from or in a sealed, liquid and gas containing, inductive apparatus enclosure, wherein said gas is located in a gas space above and is in contact h said liquid. The apparatus includes a chamber that contains a gas and has an opening therein that is immersed in said liquid. Gas pressures in said chamber and said gas space are sensed by suitable pressure sensing means. If pressures in these two gas spaces, which change from the effects of the thermal characteristics of said liquid, differ significantly from one another after being equalized, it is an indication that gas has leaked from or that gas pressure has built up in one of the above-defined gas spaces. The pressure sensing means actuates suitable gas-leak and/or gas pressure build up indicating means, when it senses a significant pressure differential.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A squeeze toy of air-filled elastomer material including a whistle, and a method and apparatus for forming the same.  A small cavity or depression is molded into the body of the toy to form the whistle site.  A small cap, which may comprise a flat or slightly rounded disk, or a small hollow cylinder, closes the small cavity or depression forming the whistle site.  A pair of small openings are formed in centered, aligned relation in the cap and in the bottom of the cavity, completing the whistle.  The body of the toy is preferably formed by blow molding techniques, using the opening in the bottom of the cavity corresponding to the whistle hole to blow air in during the molding process, and to blow the finished part out of the mold.  The whistle cap may either be made simultaneously with the body, by blow molding, or by separate injection molding techniques.     -i-

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE   A refractory erosion indicator gage for use in blast furnaces and other equipment which require an indication of the erosion wear in the re-fractory or other lining.  The erosion indicator comprises a structural plate member having a configuration preferably triangular, which is welded within the refractory lining.  This may be done before the refractory lining insul-ation is installed or alternatively, may be provided within the refractory lining per se and secured to the shell with the refractory.  As the new re-fractory surface wears or erosion takes place, the exposed portion of the triangle is determinative of the remaining actual thickness of the refractory lining or of the amount of lining eroded away.  This permits easy determination of remaining refractory life.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         Disclosed herein is a self-propelled vehicle for transporting personnel and/or small cargoes including a seat for the driver and a cargo-carrying bed or floor located rearwardly of the seat.  The floor includes a stationary, generally flat first platform and a movable section including a generally flat second platform and a rear wall member extending generally perpendicular to the second platform.          The movable floor section is supported from the rear portion of the vehicle frame for selective pivotal movement between a raised or cargo-carrying position where the second platform is generally coplanar with the first platform and the rear wall member serves to confine cargo on the floor and a lowered or passenger-carrying position where the rear wall member can serve as a step for a passenger to step up and sit on the stationary platform and also serve as a foot rest for a rearward-facing passenger(s) sitting on the stationary platform.  The movable floor section is releasably held in the raised position by a pair of laterally spaced arms, each of which, at the outer end, is pivotally supported from the movable floor section and, at the inner end, is provided with a detent notch which is biased into releasable engagement with a pin located on the vehicle frame beneath the stationary platform by a spring connected between the inner end of the arm and the vehicle frame.
