Abstract: S P E C I F I C A T I O N                  MULTI-STAGE HEAT SENSING CABLE AND                 EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM              ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           A heat sensing cable is provided for use in an alarm and/ or fire extinguishing system, which is capable of responding to the presence of fire, or excessive heat, and to sound an alarm, actuate fire extinguishing sprinkling equipment, operate other fire extinguishing means, or to perform other emergency functions.  The heat sensing cable of the invention comprises two or more multi-strand single conductor plastic coated insulated wires twisted to-gether in a spiral manner, and which are placed under tension when in use.  Each insulated wire in the multi-conductor heat sensing cable of the invention consists of a single multi-strand conductor of low electrical resistance, formed of copper or other suitable conductive material, and having any particular gage to suit any particular application.  The conductor of each insulated wire is coated with a prescribed thickness of selected thermosponsive plastic material which softens at a predetermined temperature and which, due to its softening, causes the wire conductor in each single conductor cable of like insulation to cut through the plas-tic and make contact with the conductor or conductors of the other cable having similar insulated wire or wires, when their predeter-mined temperature is reached.  The resulting bare conductors are caused to twist together tightly, making a firm and positive electrical contact.  When more than two insulated wires are used in the heat sensing cable of the invention, the plastic coating of one or more can be selected to soften at a higher temperature than the initial two, so that two, three or more alarms may be activated, one when the first is in its incipient stage, and a second and third alarm, if the fire increases in intensity.  The first alarm may be used to alert local personnel, and the second alarm may be used to alert a central fire station in the event the local personnel were unable to cope with the fire, the third alarm will indicate to the Fire Depart-¦ ment that a major or rapid fire is in progress.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T             A curved belt conveyer in which all of the lateral guide rolls are suspended individually and biased by spring means in a direction towards the conveyor belt.          Individual spring biasing of the lateral guide rolls tends to avoid coupling of movement between individual guide rolls and each guide roll can adjust automatically according to the instantaneous geometry of the conveyor belt.  This in turn avoids the necessity of previously known designs to adjust the guide rolls frequently to meet gradual changes in dimensions of the belt.

A pair of cam members are secured to opposite end regions of the shaft.      The shaft has a central portion which projects through openings formed in opposite sides of a pan-shaped housing.  A handle is secured to the central portion for rotating the shaft to bring the cam members into and out of latching engagement with the keeper members.  The handle is movable between a nested position wherein the handle is nested within a recess defined by the pan-shaped housing, and a projecting position wherein the handle projects forwardly from the recess.  A latch mechanism is carried by the housing and includes a latch member mounted for pivotal movement between latched and unlatched positions.  The latch member is operable to engage and releasably restrain the handle from moving out of its nested position.  A key-operated lock cylinder is carried by the handle, and has a lock member which is movable between locked and unlocked positions as a key is turned in the lock cylinder.  The lock member is operable to retain the latch member in its latched position when the handle is in its nested position.  A lock member reinforcing structure is provided which not only supports and rigidifies the lock member when the lock member is in its locked position, but also cooperates with the lock member to provide a back-up, secondary locking action which will keep the lock locked even if the primary locking system is disabled, as by tampering.  A handle return spring is preferably interposed between the shaft and the housing to bias the handle toward its nested position.

Abstract: ABSTRACT A self watering apparatus for home growing bean sprouts includes a housing divided into an upper compartment and a lower compartment by a horizontally positioned divider plate provided with orifices.  An open top sprout container tray is placed within the lower compartment of the housing, the bottom of the sprout containing tray is provided with a drainage opening.  A tilting water container is pivotally mounted in the upper compartment of the housing, the tilting water container has an established capacity and collects water from a water supply line at a controlled rate.  Each time the volume of water collected in the tilting water container reaches the established capacity, the tilting water container discharges the collected water on the divider plate and drains through the orifices into the top sprout container tray.       The method disclosed in this invention produces healthier, crisper, better tasting, well formed bean sprouts in a high yield by weight of sprouts produced, from a given weight of bean seed placed in the sprout container tray. This is accomplished by selecting the correct interval be-tween successive watering periods and by maintaining the temperature of the water periodically wetting the bean seed and developing bean sprouts within the established range. The water is permitted to drain freely from the seeds and partly developed sprouts.       The apparatus and method of this invention minimizes the formation of hair roots on the developing bean sprouts.

Abstract: ABSTRACT      "SOCKET CONNECTION FOR PIPES AND PIPE ELEMENTS"      The invention relates to a connector for joining pipes, particularly of metal, which comprises a socket 17, and a pipe having a smooth end 15 for insertion into the socket.  A seal and friction ring 1 inside the socket seals the pipe into the socket and prevents accidental withdrawal.      In known connectors the ring comprises retaining elements 4 having serrated internal edges, and each of which is tiltable to accommodate and grip pipes whose insertion end diameter varies over a specified range. The tilting action means that only a limited portion of the available serrated internal edges 5a-5d may engage the insertion end of the pipe, and may thus lead to serious notching of the pipe.      In the present invention each retaining element 4 is embedded in the elastomeric sealing material of which the ring 1 is composed and is axially slidably guided as well as being freely tiltable about an annular bead 19 on the socket 17.  Thus, all the serrations 5a - 5d remain in contact with the end 15, irrespective of its diameter (within a given range).

Abstract: ROLL FILM READER/PRINTER WITH MANUALLY INSERTABLE DISCRETE FILM                 Abstract of Disclosure A roll film reader/printer transports film to a selected photographic area of imagery.  Transparent areas are also left at any one or more selected locations on the roll film.  When it is necessary or desirable to read an image on a separate and discrete piece of film, the roll of film is transported through the reader/printer in order to display a transparent area.  There, a carrier for the separate and discrete piece of film is manually inserted into the reader/printer and over the transparent area on the roll film.          An optically detectable symbol may be provided on the carrier so that a signal may be given when the carrier is in a reading position.  Either suitable interlock switches or signals respon-sive to the optically detected symbol may disable the roll film transport mechanism while the carrier for the manually inserted film is in the reader/printer.

Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A punch press comprising multi-station, progressive die tooling, for providing metal covers with easy-open closures, is fitted with a work transfer mechanism facilitating successive positioning of the covers, the tooling employing features thereof to precisely locate and align the covers in the respective stations. More especially, in addition to cover operating dies and work supporting members facilitating lateral accommodation and positioning of the covers to avoid unwanted deforming stress therein, correct vertical alignment of the tooling at successive stages to produce the closures is economically assured. In its method aspect the invention consists in suspending can ends in their flanges in pockets of an indexable carrier, providing a die registering feature in each can end, and a die at successive stations of the press for mating with the feature, registrability of the die being accurately assured by relieving pressure between the carrier and each flange immediately preceding die closure whereby the can ends can self adjust their position heightwise and laterally and at the same time avoid undue stress in each cover at die closures thereby minimizing unwanted distortion or deformation.
