Abstract: An idler or tensioning assembly for an electronically controlled sanding/polishing machine uses a plurality of exchangeable polishing wheel assemblies of which the idler assembly is one. Each polishing wheel assembly (30) interfaces with the sanding/polishing machine (20) through a coolant manifold (34) and a polishing wheel shaft receptor. The idler assembly (36) is operative to provide releasable tension to a sanding/polishing belt (38) that is situated around the idler and the associated sanding/polishing wheel (32). The idler assembly (36) has a pivoting idler (54) that is actuated by a hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder (72) utilizes coolant tapped from the coolant manifold (34) of the idler assembly (36) for actuation. Coolant is provided to the hydraulic cylinder (72) in response to a valve signal. The idler assembly (36) thus has a tensioned mode and an untensioned mode.

Abstract: The combustion chamber system (10) comprises a dual combustion chamber system comprising a pre-combustion chamber (12) and a final combustion chamber (14). The pre-combustion chamber is characterized by a high aspect ratio and has different obstacles fixedly incorporated therein for selectively retarding or enhancing the rate of burn and the rate of speed of the flame front propagating through the pre-combustion chamber. In a similar manner, an obstacle (52) having a predetermined solid geometrical configuration is disposed within the final combustion chamber at a position immediately disposed downstream of the port fluidically interconnecting the pre-combustion chamber (12) to the final combustion chamber (14) so as to effectively intercept the flame front and cause the same to diverge and split into multiple components which flow radially outwardly with a desirably accelerated rate of speed and which traverse the entire diametrical extent of the final combustion chamber. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The heating blanket comprises a conducting metal band (3) serving as a resistance heater, supplied with current at its ends (C,D). This is embedded between two flexible insulating sheets of material (1). The supporting band may be cut to a required length, since the metal band has a periodically repeating pattern.  The flexible heating blanket includes a fine, conducting metal band (3) which is intended to be supplied with electric current at its ends (C,D), embedded between two flexible insulating sheets of material (1). The conducting band is made up from at least two elements (3a, 3b) running in a serpentine fashion, parallel to each other but spaced apart, from one end of the sheet (A) to the other. The conducting band is fastened to at least one of the supporting sheets by adhesive, and has a periodically repeating pattern extending longitudinally down the sheet. This allows the sheet to be cut at one of a sequence of positions, in order to provide a pair of conductors with accessible connections (C, D; E, F). The supporting sheets may also have apertures (30) cut at repeating intervals along their respective edges.
