Abstract: The invention relates to a bag made of monoaxially drawn, preferably single-layer polymer, especially polyolefine, and preferably polypropylene strip fabric (1) which may be coated on one or both sides with a thermoplastic material, especially polyolefine, in which the fabric is a tubular structure (1) or a flat fabric bonded into a tube and at least one end of the especially box-shaped or cubic bag is shaped into an especially rectangular bottom surface by folding the fabric ends. The feature of the bag is that at least one end of it, especially the bottom surface, is bonded via an intermediate layer of especially thermoplastic material, and especially polyolefine material, by the action of heat to a cover sheet (3) of a fabric made from monoaxially drawn polymer, especially polyolefine and preferably polypropylene strips and that only the outer surface region, especially less than 30 % of the material thickness of the fabric strips of the bottom surface and cover sheet has polymer, especially polyolefine and preferably polypropylene, molecules desoriented by the effect of heat, while in the remainder of the material the molecular orientation is preserved. The invention also relates to a process for welding a cover sheet on a bottom surface of a bag.

Abstract: A reversible rectifier-invertor (2.1-2.3) linked to each of the three phases (U,V,W) is connected to a common energy store (3) and a regulator (5). The instantaneous voltage on each phase line is applied to a computer (4). An instantaneous ideal desired voltage is worked out in real time from a band-pass model comprising low-pass and high-pass equiv. three-terminal networks in series. The regulator acts on the invertors in accordance with the difference between the instantaneous actual and ideal desired voltages.

Abstract: An inflator (10) adapted to be heat-sealed directly to an inflatable article thereby obviating the need for inflation manifolds and the like. The inflator (10) of the invention comprises a housing (12) having an integrally formed mounting flange (14) composed of a plastic material such as polyurethane, polyester or polyether capable of being easily sealed to the materials conventionally used in the manufacture of inflatable articles such as personal floatation devices, rafts, buoys and emergency signaling equipment. A pierce pin assembly is reciprocatably mounted within a bore in the housing. A firing lever (20) is pivotably connected to the rear of the housing in alignment with the rearward end of the bore and is operatively configured such that upon pivotable movement by means of a lanyarded ball (20L), the pierce pin assembly is forced forwardly within the bore to pierce the frangible seal of the gas cartridge. Upon piercing, the gas in the gas cartridge escapes into the bore and then into the inflatable article via a port formed within the housing from the bore to the exterior of the housing at a position located interially of the inflatable article, thereby inflating the inflatable article. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Elastic athletic or orthopedic supports for body parts such as the knee, thigh or ankle have a generally tubular sleeve made of an elastic "multi-directional" resilient stretch fabric that surrounds the body part. A patch having at least one lamination of neoprene or the like is attached within the sleeve. The patch is sized, shaped and positioned on the support element to provide a therapeutic warming to only a portion of the body part. Preferably the patch includes the second lamination of an absorbent fabric liner that is coextensive with, and secured to, the neoprene layer. The neoprene layer has a plurality of holes that extend through it to remove moisture. The liner can have like aligned holes. The liner and the patch are sewn, edge-sewn, adhered, heat-laminated, or otherwise attached to one another and to the sleeve. For a knee or elbow, the patch is generally diamond shape with its wide ends truncated and the elastic sleeve may have an opening at the rear of the knee or the inside of the elbow. For a wrist, ankle or thigh, the patch is generally a strip that wraps or extends over the injured region, with openings in the wrist and ankle sleeves for the thumb and heel, respectively. For an ankle, the strip curves downwardly at its ends to cover the ankle bone directly.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel adjustable diameter hair curler which is extremely lightweight, portable, and suitable for travel. The novel adjustable curler includes a sheet of a flexible material such as a plastic or fabric or backing material. The sheet has a first planar side and a second planar side opposite said first planar side. Attached to the first side of the sheet are an array of hook-type elements from a hook and loop type fastening system such as VELCRO TM  brand hook and loop fasteners available from Velcro Industries of Manchester, N.H. The hook-type elements are generally arrayed over the bulk of the first side. Attached to at least a porion of the second side are loop-type fasteners or a material which will stick to the hook-type fasteners. By rolling the sheet to form a cylinder so that a portion of the sheet overlaps another portion of the sheet, the hook and loop fasteners may interact to hold the cylinder's shape with relative ease and complete adjustability of cylinder diameter. Lock-in of the shape may be accomplished easily with a single hand. For storage, the sheets may be completely flattened for storage or transport in a very minimal volume.

Abstract: A device for shortening translucent double-walled plate material (20) comprises means for shortening the plate material with a substantially rectilinear cut. The plate material comprises two basically parallel synthetic plates (21, 22) which are separated from each other at a basically constant distance by a number of parallel dividing walls, enclosing a number of elongated channels (24). To avoid too much pressure on the plate material, when it is shortened, and to avoid too large an amount of chips and too much electrostatic charging of the plate material, the device comprises two rotating knives (4, 5) to work into the plate material (20) from both sides. The rotating knives in accordance with the invention, have been placed slantwise behind each other and their combined penetration equals at least the thickness of the plate material (20) ensuring a complete cut through the plate material. <IMAGE>
