Title: Box for a board game
IPC: A63F3/02
Filed: 1986-09-23
Granted: 1989-07-19
Abstract: A box for storing social games having the form of a book and comprising two symmetrical parts forming the covers of the book which are articulatedly mounted on one another by hinges. The box is movable between a closed position and an open position. When the box is in the open position, the symmetrical parts are positioned one adjacent the other on one plane so that game pieces can be placed thereon. When the box is in the closed position, each symmetrical part is pressed against the other and a male component is provided having a salient portion which forms the back of the book. The two symmetrical parts forming the covers of the book form a female component of the book which is further provided on the side of the hinges within an aperture into which the salient portion of the male component can be inserted to secure the box in the closed position.

Abstract: Novel self-reinforced polymer composites of a base polymer with a melt processable liquid crystal polymer are prepared according to this invention. The base polymer is a flexible chain polymer, e.g. a conventional thermoplastic. Polycarbonate is a particularly suitable base polymer. The liquid crystal polymer is melt processable, that is, it has a melting point and exhibits anisotropic properties in the melt phase. Wholly aromatic copolyesters are particularly suitable. Mixing is carried out at a temperature at which both the base polymer and the liquid crystal are melt processable, i.e., at a temperature at which the base polymer flows readily and the liquid crystal polymer is above its melting point. The products of this invention comprise about 2 to 20 percent by weight of liquid crystal polymer, which is in the form of essentially unidirectionally oriented continuous fibers primarily in the range of about 1 to 10 micrometers in diameter, distributed in a matrix of the base polymer. The polymer composites of this invention have high tensile strength in both the fiber direction and the transverse direction, and also have high modulus, satisfactory elongation, good impact strength, and good high temperature properties.

Abstract: A vending machine for dispensing cups comprising a rotatable turret magazine (10) for supporting a plurality of upright columns of cups (14). A pair of part-circular guide surfaces engage the bottom surface of the lowermost cup (14) in each column, the guide surfaces rising uniformly above a horizontal base plate (26) from a region of minimum cup height to a diametrically opposite position of maximum cup height. A fixed, arcuate cam surface (34) is adapted to engage between the rims of the lowermost and next lowermost cups for stripping the lowermost cup from its column. The guide surfaces (20,22) and cam (34) co-operate such that, as the magazine (10) is rotated, the lowermost cup (14) from each column is stripped in turn, lowered to a discharge station (24) and then, if that cup is not required, re-joined to its original column. When a desired cup arrives at the discharge station (24), the rotation of the turret magazine is stopped and that cup is released downwardly to a dispensing station. There is also disclosed a mechanism for the release of selected quantities of a particulate material, such as sugar, to a cup when at said dispensing station. This mechanism comprises a rubber beak valve (40) having a normally closed mouth (50) defined at the junction of a pair of converging, resiliently flexible walls (46), and a plunger (56) which is adapted to be selectively displaceable to engage the beak valve (40) adjacent one end of the mouth (50) and to distort the flexible walls (46) such s to cause the mouth to open and allow the particulate material to flow through.

Filed: 1989-02-22
Granted: 1994-11-09
Abstract: In the case of known control methods the intake volume flow to the compressor and the compressor final pressure measured after the compressor are included in the venting control. Disturbances in the through-flow which have their cause in a process downstream from the compressor are thereby only detected once they have spread through the compressor to the intake side. Under unfavourable conditions intervention by the venting control may therefore already be too late to prevent surging of the compressor. The new method is intended to rectify this drawback. 
<??>The new method proposes that in addition the delivery flow to the process downstream from the compressor be detected and taken account of in the venting control. This results in prompt reaction of the venting control to changes in the through-flow which are caused by the downstream process. 
<??>The new method is particularly suitable for the control of turbocompressors on which the downstream process is a possible cause of disturbances with changes in the through-flow.
