Patent CA-2058360-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOVEY STEPHAN
IPC: F16K27/00
Filed: 1991-12-23
Abstract: A vertically adjustable fixture assembly for mounting a valve and handle assembly to the exposed side of a wall or deck of a tub such as a Roman tub.  The assembly comprises a hollow externally threaded receiver body adapted to receive a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe located on the hidden side of the wall or deck, and having valving means including valve stem means disposed in the portion thereof extending above the exposed side of the wall or deck. An internally threaded adapter is threadably received over the receiver body.  The adapter is mounted within an opening in the wall or deck within one end of a flange, the other end of  the  flange  being  secured to the wall  or deck.   The adapter is free to rotate within the flange but is secured against axial or vertical movement relative to the deck or wall  by  the  flange.   Rotation  of  the  adapter  provides adjustment  of  the  axial  position  of  the  receiver  body relative to the wall or deck during mounting.   Once the desired axial position of the receiver body is achieved the adapter is secured against further rotational movement by engagement with retainer means secured to the adapter by an internally threaded jam nut threadably received over the receiver body.

Title: Plasma spray apparatus for spraying powdery or gaseous material
Inventor: LANDES KLAUS
IPC: H05H1/42
Filed: 1992-02-13
Abstract: The plasma spray gun has an indirect plasmatron for generating a long arc. Said plasmatron has at least one, for example, three, cathodes (1,20), an annular anode (3) which is at a distance from the cathode, and a plasma channel (4) which extends from the cathode to the anode. The latter is formed by the anode ring (3) and a number of annular neutrodes (5 to 12) which are electrically insulated from one another. The plasma channel (4) has a constriction zone (33) in the region close to the cathode and expands from this constriction zone towards the anode (3). The spray material (SM) is supplied with the aid of a carrier gas (TG) through a central tube (24) which opens in the centre of an inlet nozzle which is formed by the neutrode (5) located closest to the cathode. 
<??>Using this solution, a higher efficiency and an increased life of the plasma spray gun can be achieved.

Title: Method and apparatus for treating velvet-like fabric which is simultaneously embossed and decorated
Inventor: GABAY AMNON
IPC: D04H1/54
Filed: 1992-02-20
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         The present invention relates to an improved method for embossing and decorating a thermoplastic velvet-like fabric.  A transfer sheet  supporting a  thermally-activated decoration  is simultaneously passed with a fabric between two rolls which are under pressure with respect to each other.  At least one of the rolls is engraved so as to cause embossing of the fabric.   The passing of the fabric and transfer sheet between the rolls is carried out at a temperature sufficient to activate the decoration and allow the transfer of the decoration to the embossed portions of the fabric.  The fabric may be heated prior to the embossing-decorating step so that the velvet-like pile is at least partially plasticized.  The fabric is then brushed to erect the pile to an erect position.  If the decorating is printing, the fabric may be heated immediately before and after the embossing/printing step to transfer a sufficient amount of dye, and to penetrate and seal the dye within the fabric.

Patent CA-2067339-A1 (CA)
Title: X-ray tube
Inventor: DANOS MICHAEL
IPC: H01J35/16
Filed: 1991-08-22
Abstract: An X-ray tube for greatly enhancing the output of photons relative to a standard tube includes a source (10) of an electron beam focused on a target (22) at an angle of approximately 10· to produce high energy photons emitted at an angle along their centerline of 5· to 15·, both angles referring to the surface of the target. Reduction of impingement of scattered electrons on the tube window is affected in various ways such as use of a magnet (48) to deflect electrons from the photon stream or locating the window out of alignment with the most intense scattered electrons.  Scattered electrons are also absorbed by an essentially zero albedo shield (54) disposed in the path of the majority of the scattered electrons not directed at the window.
Patent CA-2069166-A1 (CA)
IPC: A01D51/00
Filed: 1992-05-21
Abstract: ABSTRACT A powered striker  assembly  for  collecting loose material on the ground has a shaft mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis at a predetermined distance above the ground.  The shaft carries an array of striker members. The striker members preferably comprise elastic nonrigid bodies.  In the absence of shaft rotation, the elastic nonrigid bodies of the striker members are normally flexed out of a perpen-dicular relationship with the ground.  In response to centrifugal force generated by rotation of the shaft, the flexed striker bodies mutually assume a perpendic-ular relationship with the ground for contacting and thrusting loose material.   In one arrangement, the striker bodies are bent upon themselves in a U-shape and inserted through holes in the shaft, where they remain without use of external fasteners or the like.

Filed: 1992-11-17
Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure A defect detection system includes a video camera with defect detection circuits for detecting defects in video signals being outputted by corresponding sections of an array sensor such as a TDI CCD two-dimensional array sensor.  Each defect detection circuit includes a subtraction circuit for subtracting a prior stored pixel from an incoming pixel to generate a difference. Comparators compare the difference with positive and negative limits defining an acceptable range of difference values.  The prior stored pixel is updated to the succeeding pixel only when the difference value is acceptable.  Memories store the defect pixels from the respective detection circuits along with X-coordinates and end of line bits.  The memories are sequentially read up to their end of line bits, and the defect pixel values along with coordinates expanded to include section indicating bits are transferred from the camera to further processing facilities.

Title: Power control for radio frequency amplifier having known periods of zero output power
Inventor: BRAATHEN RUSSELL E
IPC: H04B1/04
Filed: 1993-02-03
Abstract: ABSTRACT    A radio frequency power amplifier which includes a sample-and-hold circuit connected to the output of a power level detector.  A difference amplifier compares the output of the sample-and-hold circuit to a desired power level signal to develop an error signal which indicates a desired adjustment in the gain of the power amplifier.  The sample-and-hold circuit is selectively switched from a sample mode to a hold mode in synchronism with a modulation state signal, so that when it is known that the power amplifier is to be turned off, such as during idle times in a time division multiple access system, the sample-and-hold circuit samples any DC offset presented by the detector.  During other periods, such as when the power amplifier is operating, the sample-and-hold circuit is switched to a hold mode and the stored DC offset is used to correct a feedback signal that adjusts the gain of the power amplifier.

Title: Injection molding torpedo with thermocouple bore
Inventor: BABIN DENIS L
IPC: B29C45/30
Filed: 1993-03-10
Abstract: Injection molding apparatus for hot tip gating wherein a torpedo is screwed into a threaded seat in the forward end of a nozzle. The torpedo has an elongated shaft with a pointed tip mounted centrally in an outer collar by a pair of spiral blades which impart a swirling motion to the melt flowing to the gate. The temperature of the melt in the gate varies according to a continuous thermodynamic cycle in the torpedo. A thermocouple bore extends radially inward through the outer collar and one of the spiral blades to a conductive inner portion of the central shaft of the torpedo. The thermocouple bore is positioned whereby a thermocouple element extends radially outward from it into an insulative air space between the forward end of the nozzle and the mold. The thermocouple element has a substantially 90 degree rearward bend a predetermined distance from its inner end. The bend abuts against a tapered portion of the inner surface of the well in which the nozzle is seated to securely retain the thermocouple element against the inner end of the thermocouple bore. This accurate location and reliable retention of the thermocouple element in place provides the accurate monitoring of the melt temperature necessary for its control throughout the thermodynamic cycle.
