Abstract: ABSTRACT         A  device capable of functioning as a fluid pump or motor has a shaft provided with an eccentric rotating with the shaft in an axially short cylindrical chamber.  A ring is rotatable on the eccentric, the thick-ness of the ring being close enough to the minimum dis-tance from the periphery of the eccentric to the wall of the cylindrical chamber to cause the ring to roll along the wall on rotation of the shaft.  The presence of the bearing interposed between the ring and the eccentric has the effect of adding to the thickness of the ring in this relationship.  A high pressure and a low pressure port are closely spaced about the chamber periphery, and a moveable dam is mounted between these ports.  A second moveable dam is mounted on the opposite side of the high-pressure port from the first dam.          A valve and a related hydraulic circuit control the relationship of the case pressure to the pressure in the high-pressure port, and another system suppresses pressure pulsations otherwise arising from the sequential operation of one or more of the sections of the device. Mechanical provision is made for providing greater axial length of roller bearing engagement against the convex surface of the eccentric than is present on the concave inner surface of the ring.  The shaft is balanced by recesses in the eccentric, and these are surrounded by a continuous sleeve functioning as the inner bearing race.

Abstract: Abstract An adaptive threshold circuit is disclosed wherein reflectance values are measured in each of a number of scan lines on a document on which an image is scanned, digitized at a multiplicity of points and processed to create a pro-cessed digitized image signal that is stored or transmitted and then used to re-create the document accurately without objectionable light and dark variations over the recreated documents and without being affected by the background color of the  original document, variations in illuminating and the black/white makeup of the image.  The unprocessed digitized data is first used to calculate a mean value of the digitized reflectance values for each of a number of columns on the document.  The same data is then used to calculate  a mean-above-mean value for the same columns.  Each digitized reflectance value is compared to the mean val-ue and only when it exceeds the mean value is the mean-above-mean value updated. A threshold value is then calculated for each column using the updated mean-above-mean values for a particular column and for the two contiguous columns. At the same time the most recent threshold value for each column is compared to each unprocessed digitized reflectance value taken in the associated column and values above the threshold value are assigned a first binary value indicating the sample is white and values equal to or below are assigned the opposite binary value indicating the sample is black.

Abstract: ABSTRACT    A self contained hot stick mounted radio transmitting module may be temporarily pushed against the power conductor of an electrical transmission line.  The module is capable of measuring the temperature of the conductor, and the tem-perature  of  the  ambient  air. It  may  also  measure  the electrical  potential  of  the  conductor.   An  alternative module  is  also  capable  of measuring  current,  potential, frequency  and  power  factor  (or  the  Fourier  components thereof).  The modules transmit these parameters to a local receiver where the data may be displayed.  The receiver also may be connected by an appropriate data transmission link, to a power control center.    The modules are donut shaped and open like a pair of jaws.   One  or more  spring  loaded  temperature probes  are located such that they may be pushed against a power line when a "donut" is mounted to a hot stick with the jaws open.    Power  to  an open module  is  supplied by  a battery.    Power to a closed module, mounted on a conductor, may be supplied  by  the  battery  or  by  power  derived  from  the conductor.    A donut may be left on the power line for an indefinite time and the hot stick removed, or instantaneous measure-ments may be made with the hot  stick  attached,  and the module then immediately removed.     The  temperature probe of the present invention com-prises a pair of concentric spring loaded tubes.  A beryllia insert is mounted between a temperature sensor and the power conductor.

Abstract: GARMENT WHICH CAN ACCOMMODATE A LARGE NUMBER    OF WAIST SIZES AND WHICH IS HELD BY AN AUTOMATICALLY-ADJUSTABLE-LENGTH DRAWSTRING          Abstract of the Disclosure:         A garment has an automatically-adjustable-length drawstring with readily-flexible ends that can be tied to enable the garment to accommodate a large number of waist sizes; and that drawstring will auto-matically expand as the circumference of the wearer's waist increases during breathing in or movement of the wearer's body, and that drawstring will automatically contract as the circumference of the wearer's waist subsequently decreases during breathing out or move-ment of the wearer's body.  In doing so, that draw-string will hold the waist of that garment against drooping relative to a user's waist.  A resilient, extensible section between the readily-flexible ends of the drawstring will automatically and continuously maintain an effective, but lower-than-normal, value of frictional force between the waist of the garment and a wearer's waist.  The drawstring is disposed within a tunnel at the waist of the garment; and the major por-tion of the length of that drawstring is free to move circumferentially relative to that tunnel.  As a re-sult, the waist of the garment can be free of undue "bunching"  and "crinkling", even where it is worn by a person whose waist size is at the lower end of the range of waist sizes to be accommodated by that gar-ment; and the only limit to the extent to which that resilient, extensible section can be extended is the comfort level desired by the wearer for his or her waist.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE        According to the present invention a kit for repairing chips in porcelain enamel is provided which allows the home handyman to provide a high quality finish to chips in porcelain enamel finishes commonly found on stoves, fridges, sinks, bath tubs, etc..  Fundamental to the kit is an aerosol container containing an acrylic lacquer, an acrylic enamel, and a suitable thinner wherein the ration of the acrylic lacquer and enamel to the thinner is approximately 1 to 1 and wherein the amount of acrylic lacquer, as a percentage of the total acrylic lacquer and acrylic enamel, is between 60 and 78%.  The particular percentages of both acrylic lacquer and acrylic enamel must be maintained within a specified range in order to provide the finished surface with suitable characteristics which are achieved due to a combination of the brittle like characteristics of the acrylic lacquer and the softer more pliable characteristics of the acrylic enamel.  The aerosol spray is advantageously packaged in combination with a metal primer and a metal filler which will allow the damaged area to be prepared to assure good hold down characteristics of the filler which is applied to the damaged area for subsequent finishing with the contents of the aerosol spray.  The finish provided by this system is of a much higher quality than achieved by the prior practise of merely applying a soft, colour matched enamel which has poor adhesion properties and has not functioned satisfactorily.

Abstract: METHOD FOR DETERMINING LIPID BOUND         SIALIC ACID IN PLASMA            ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          The amount of lipid bound sialic acid in a blood plasma or serum sample may be determined by a method which may be automated involving the following steps:   diluting the sample with distilled water; mixing and then cooling the diluted sample; adding a mixture of a chlorinated lower alkyl hydrocarbon and a lower alkyl alcohol; mixing, dilut-ing with water and then treating by mixing further and centrifuging to yield a substantially clear upper phase; recovering the upper phase and adding to it a mixture of a protein precipitating agent and adsorbing material, mixing the resulting admixture; recovering the resulting precipi-tate, suspending the precipitate in distilled water and determining the amount of lipid bound sialic acid present.            The presently preferred mixture for addition to the upper phase is a mixture of 75% by weight phosphotungstic acid and 25% by weight silica gel on a dry weight basis.            By so determining the amount of lipid bound sialic acid present in a plasma sample and comparing the amount with values obtained for subjects known to have cancer, one may diagnose the presence of cancer in a subject.  Alterna-tively, by determining the amount of lipid bound sialic acid present in plasma samples obtained from a subject over a period of time and comparing each amount so determined with preceding amounts one may monitor the progression,  re-mission, or recurrence of cancer in a subject.
