Abstract: DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM WITH A PLURALITY  OF PROCESSORS ACCESSING A COMMON BUS       TO INTERLEAVED STORAGE                    Abstract A plurality of data processor units are connect-ed to a common bus which is connected to first and second interleaved storage units.  The system is a synchronous one in which timing means establish a series of information transfer intervals.  One or more of the processor units contain apparatus for selectively commencing an address transfer on the bus to one of the storage units during a transfer inter-val; the storage transaction initiated by the address transfer will require more than the one transfer interval to complete.  One or more of the processors have means for monitoring the bus in order to deter-mine whether an address on the bus has been trans-ferred to the first or the second storage unit during a particular transfer interval.  The address transfer apparatus further includes apparatus responsive to the monitoring apparatus for selectively transferring the next subsequent address to the other of said storage units to thus achieve alternating interleav-ing between storage units.

Abstract: abstract There is presented an improved head-borne binocular indirect ophthalmoscope for viewing the aerial image of the fundus of the eye, having the unique feature that it incorporates within each of its two observing portions a two-lens telescope of low magni-fying power which magnifies said aerial image of the fundus.  The telescope incorporated into the ophthal-moscope differs from the usual coaxial type in that the optical axis of the high powered objective lens and that of the high powered ocular lens of said telescope are caused to intersecteach other at an angle of about 94° at the surface of a laterally posi-tioned oblique front surface mirror, said lenses and said mirror being in a fixed relationship to each other within a transversely movable mounting as a fixed telescope unit such that the reflected secondary focus of the objective lens falls at the primary focus of the ocular lens, said unit being attached to a slide which is transversely movable along ways toward and away from a medially positioned oblique front surface mirror whereby adjustments can be made within the ophthal moscope to accommodate the interpupillary distance of the observer without affecting the relative position of the elements of said telescope unit.  A single low-powered columnating lens whose primary focus is at the aerial image of the fundus when said image is at the usual working distance in performing indirect ophthalmoscopy, is fixed in position in front of both of the medially positioned oblique mirrors. Since the telescope and mirror unit is a fixed unit and since the light reflected from said medially positioned oblique mirror and incident upon said telescope objective lens of said unit is columnated, movement of said unit toward and away from said medially positioned oblique mirror along the direction of the incident columnated light rays requires no relative adjustment of said telescope when it is moved transversely to accommodate the observer's interpupillary distance.  The incorporation of aber-ration correcting aspherical objective and ocular lenses within said unit of the indirect ophthalmo-scope of this invention and the use of the columnating lens provides to the observer viewing the aerial image of the fundus binocularly a magnified, stereo-scopic clear image of the aerial image of the fundus of the eye.           Two types of telescopes are used in this invention: a Galilean telescope wherein the objective lens is of strong positive power and wherein the ocular lens is of strong negative power and the image is seen as clear, enlarged, and inverted, and, an astronomical telescope wherein the objective lens is of strong positive power and the ocular lens is of strong positive power and the image is reinverted and is seen as clear, enlarged, and upright.

Abstract: ABSTRACT     The present invention discloses the disposal of halogenated hydrocarbon waste materials which are burned in a horizontal fire tube boiler.  In the dis-closed and illustrated embodiments, liquid and/or gaseous waste of highly chlorinated hydrocarbons are input along with a flow of fuel oil or gas as required to increase combustion temperature.  While high com-bustion temperatures are achieved, a stable flame front is established.  A refractory lined combustion chamber of substantial length is incorporated to contain the flame front near adiabatic conditions for sufficient dwell time so that the combustion gases leaving the vicinity achieve near complete combustion.  Before entering the water jacket boiler furnace tube the temperature of the flue gas is dropped to a level enabling the use of standard materials of con-struction of the tube sheets of the boiler, where the fire tube boiler is most vulnerable to corrosion from excessive temperatures and condensation of chlorinated hydrocarbons reacting on the interior thereof.  The tube sheet boiler permits burning of halogenated hydro-carbon waste with minimal support fuel requirements to yield flue gas containing exceptionally high hydrogen chloride concentration.

Abstract: Abstract In the operation of wheelchairs, it is common to have a manual pushbar mechanism that is connected through an arrangement of gears, cogs and axles to drive the wheels of the wheelchair and that may be pushed by the occupant of the wheelchair to propel both the wheelchair and its occupant. In this invention, a new type of manual pushbar mechanism is disclosed. It operates by transmitting rotational force to the main wheels. The pushbar mechanism is returned to its original position after a stroke that transmits the rotational force by sliding back around the wheels. The engagement of a tongue from the pushbar mechanism to the wheels is used to drive the wheels, while its disengagement on the return stroke is used to allow the wheels to continue rotation in the same direction. A switching control is used to engage a different tongue, having a reverse orientation with respect to the wheel, in order to propel the wheelchair in a reverse direction.
