Abstract: The cranked axis axial piston pump has a split rotor concentrically aligned containing an outer drive element (8) and an inner barrel (3). This barrel (3) contains the axially aligned pistons (6) reciprocating in chambers whose face (4) is pressed against the port plate (2) by the effect of a compression spring (11). This configuration reduces friction and allows compensation between the mating faces of the port plate and the barrel. The cranked hydraulic pump with axial pistons (6) consists of a rotating barrel (3) with a central axis (X) co-operating with a distribution port plate (2) associated with a support surface (4) set at right angles to this axis (X). The barrel (3) has a series of axial drillings (5) in which are mounted in a sliding fashion the corresponding pistons (6). A drive (8) distinct from the barrel (3) is provided to rotate about the axis (X) which ensures on one part the centring and driving of the barrel (3) about the axis of rotation (X) and on the other part the reaction for a spring (11) pushing the support surface (4) of the barrel (3) against the port plate (2).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de détection de passagers. Ce système de détection de passager utilise un circuit d'oscillation (10) qui provoque l'émission d'un champ électrique par une électrode d'antenne (E1), ce champ étant interrompu par les caractéristiques électriques d'un objet placé sur le siège (1). Cette interruption modifie le courant et la phase du signal dans l'électrode d'antenne (E1). La comparaison du courant circulant dans l'électrode (E1) et/ou la différence entre la phase du signal dans cette électrode (E1) et le signal de sortie du circuit d'oscillation (10) avec des valeurs seuils prédéterminées permet de détecter la présence d'un passager avec fiabilité et à peu de frais.

Title: Process for making a wheyless cream cheese using transglutaminase
Inventor: HAN XIAO-QING
IPC: A23C19/08
Filed: 2002-01-29
Granted: 2009-11-17
Abstract: The current invention includes a process for making cream cheese wherein nutrients typically lost as whey during processing are utilized in the final cream cheese; the resulting cream cheese has the body, texture, and taste of conventional cream cheese. The process of the current invention utilizes acidifying and cross-linking steps to process a dairy liquid into a wheyless cream cheese by utilizing the protein cross-linking activity of transglutaminase.

Title: Spring rockflex bearing arm
Inventor: ROZENDAAL JACOBUS A
IPC: A01B61/04
Filed: 2002-03-06
Granted: 2005-07-05
Abstract: A disc harrow has a frame and a plurality of earth working discs. Each disc has a central aperture for attachment to a gang shaft. A mount attaches the gang shaft to the underside of the frame and has bearings to permit rotation of the shaft in response to forward movement of the disc harrow. The mount includes a first structural member, a second structural member and a resilient spring connected between the two members. In operation, upon striking of an obstacle by the discs, the gang shaft is permitted to upwardly deflect by the mount to prevent damage to the disc harrow. The second structural member has first and second portions with aligned longitudinal axes. The first and second portions are rotationally connected to permit rotation of the second portion in response to an angular moment applied to the second portion by deflection of the gang shaft. The rotational connection permits the bearing to automatically maintain a preferred alignment with the gang shaft during deflection, thereby preventing damage to the bearing.
