Title: Continuously variable transmission pulley
Inventor: SERKH ALEXANDER
IPC: F16G5/16
Filed: 2000-11-08
Granted: 2003-05-01
Abstract: The invention comprise a continuously variable transmission pulley. The pulley comprises at least one axially moveable sheave section which is coaxial with a second sheave section. Each sheave section has a series of radial grooves which are axially and radially aligned. The radial grooves are arranged in pairs between each sheave section. The belt blocks span between the sheave sections, each having opposing arcuate ends that slidingly engaging a pair of grooves. The belt blocks are arranged circumferentially about an axial sheave centerline. Each belt block also has a surface for receiving a multi-ribbed belt. At least one elastic member encircles the belt blocks so as to control their relative positions, keeping them in contact with the sheave grooves as the pulley rotates. As the movable sheave is moved axially, each belt block moves radially within its respective grooves so as to increase or decrease the effective diameter of the pulley.

Date Mar. 4, 1993.In order to achieve improved flow properties for a flushing medium charged with rock particles freed during the drilling phase, an injection drilling anchor is provided with anchor rods, coupling members, injection valves, an intermediate member containing a non-return valve, as well as drill head, which are designed such that these components are connected one to the other below one another always by screw fittings, so that in the assembled state one has a fully homogeneous structure from the drill head upwards. The drill head has an external thread extending uniformly over the full length and consequently has a uniform diameter, so that after drilling has taken place, starting from the mouth of the borehole, a spacer can be pushed within the borehole along the full length of the borehole over the anchor rods to any desired point. The anchor rods are provided over their full length with a uniform internal threading, sot hat a cutting to a particular length does not hinder their utility for use in the framework of the injection drilling anchor. The coupling members, the injection valves, intermediate member and the drill head for this purpose comprise tubular cylinders which correspond in terms of their internal and eternal threading with the anchor rods and which each have a stop function for the positional screwing together of the parts.

Title: Methods and compositions for the treatment and repair of defects or lesions in cartilage or bone
Inventor: HUNZIKER ERNST BRUNO
IPC: A61P43/00
Filed: 1992-08-19
Granted: 1995-03-23
Abstract: Kits and compositions are provided for the treatment and repair of defects in the cartilage or bone of humans and other animals as in full-thickness defects in joints. A matrix having pores large enough to allow cells to populate the matrix and to form blood vessels is used to fill the defect in bone. The matrix filling the bone defect contains an angiogenic factor and also contains an osteogenic factor in an appropriate delivery system. A matrix having pores sufficiently large to allow cartilage repair cells to populate the matrix is used to fill a defect in cartilage to induce cartilage formation. The matrix filling the defect in cartilage contains a proliferation agent and also contains a transforming factor in an appropriate delivery system. The matrix may also contain a chemotactic agent to attract cartilage repair cells. In a full-thickness defect, a membrane is used to separate the defect sites in bone and cartilage, which is sealed to the cartilage-bone-junction and which prevents blood vessels and associated cells from penetrating from one site to the other.

Title: Running gear for low-platform waggons
Inventor: TUTZAUER RENE
IPC: B61F5/32
Filed: 1992-10-30
Granted: 1994-10-27
Abstract: A running gear for drop-frame rail vehicles includes a running-gear frame on which individual wheels are each rotatably mounted through a respective rocker and the rocker is fastened in an articulated manner and supported through primary springs. The connection of the running-gear frame to the carriage body of the drop-frame rail vehicle is provided through two articulated rods which are mounted on a crossmember of the running gear frame and which are fastened to the carriage body. The carriage body is supported on the running-gear frame through secondary springs which are mounted in pockets of the transverse ends of the crossmembers. Transverse stops which are disposed in the crossmember limit the transverse movement of the carriage body in relation to the running gear. Advantageously, the individual wheel and the drive of the individual wheel are mounted in the rocker in such a manner as to be connected to form a structural unit. This structure provides running gears for drop-frame rail vehicles in which the drop-frame nature of the carriage body is completely preserved and only wheel cases are present in the region of the individual wheels of the running gear.

Title: Optical recording medium and recording and/or reproducing method and apparatus employing the optical recording medium
Inventor: YAMAMOTO MASANOBU
IPC: G11B7/1365
Filed: 2000-06-20
Granted: 2004-04-29
Abstract: An optical recording medium is capable of linear recording in a photon mode. An organic material changed in molecular orientation on light illumination to exhibit birefringence is used as a recording material. For example, a recording layer having, as a recording material, an organic material changed in molecular orientation caused by trans-cis rearrangement, is changed in birefringence with changes in the molecular orientation of the organic material. The recording system which utilizes the changes in the molecular orientation of the organic material has linear characteristics and gives outputs different depending on e.g., the degree or the angle of orientation, thus enabling multi-valued recording.

Title: Mechanism for joining tape leaders
Inventor: HERTRICH FRIEDRICH R
IPC: G11B15/67
Filed: 1985-06-12
Granted: 1988-09-15
Abstract: An elongated member (11) which has a finger like protrusion (13) and a cam protrusion (15) both of which are disposed close to one end thereof. The elongated member has an elongated slot at one end which fits over a stud (19) and is further rotationally coupled to a crank (21) so that the elongated member can pivot around said stud in a number of different positions in response to the crank being moved. The crank is rotationally coupled to a cam follower (17) and the crank is further arranged to rotate about a stud (25). When a tape leader (27) from a take up reel is to be joined to a tape leader from a supply reel, the elongated member is moved toward the tape leader from the take up reel and the finger like protrusion (15) enters a first slot in the take up reel leader and moves that leader to an extended position whereat the cam protrusion (in a preferred embodiment) cams a tab (41) on the end of the take up reel leader away from the elongated member. The tab (41) is formed to have a stem section. Thereafter, the housing for the supply reel is moved toward the joining mechanism. The supply leader which is extended from the housing has a locking slot (39) therein which has a first section which fits over the tab. As the housing continues to move toward the joining mechanism it moves the cam follower which is part of the joining mechanism. In response to said camming action, the follower is partially rotated and partially linearly moved. In response to the further moving of the cam follower, the elongated member moves said finger like protrusion out of said first slot and the two leaders are joined, or buckled, to be used for pulling tape from the supply reel onto the take up reel.
