Title: Device for coupling a vibrational receiver system with the wall of a well
Inventor: WITTRISCH CHRISTIAN
IPC: G01V1/52
Filed: 1997-08-28
Abstract: A device for coupling a receiver system with the wall of a well bored in the ground. The sonde shown in fig.1 comprises an electronic part 2, an uncoupling device 3 and the receiver system 4. The receiver system comprises at least one sensor sensitive to vibrations, means (e.g. magnets 14 and 15) for applying said system against the wall of said well at the two ends of the said system. A surface for supporting the system against the wall, arranged between the said application means, has a radius of curvature essentially identical to the radius of curvature of a transverse section of the well (see fig. 2A). The contact surface covers an area great enough that the axes along the measuring directions of orthogonally oriented sensors intercept the contact surface (19 and 20 in fig.2A).

Title: An attachment device especially for a vehicle seat
Inventor: ANDERSSON BERT
IPC: B60N2/015
Filed: 1998-05-15
Abstract: An attachment arrangement for attaching a first element(9) to a second element(21) without effecting any relative movement between the first element and the second element. An attachment device(10) has a first part(13) with a planar under-surface(20) and an elongate aperture(15), and also a second part comprising a base(16) with two upstanding side arms(17), each with a forwardly extending projection(18). A pivot point is defined at the junction between the first part(13) and the second pail. The upstanding arms(17) extend through an aperture(25) formed in the first element(9). A nut and bolt(11,12) pass through the aperture(15) in the first pall of the device(10), and also through an aperture(23) in the planar upper surface(22) of the first element(21). Tightening of the nut and bolt(11,12) causes the attachment device(10) to effect a pivotal movement, and subsequently a pivotal movement and simultaneous lateral movement bringing part(19) of the upstanding arms(17) into firm engagement with at least one edge of the aperture(25) in the first element(9). The first element (9) may be part of a vehicle seat and the second element may be part of a vehicle floor.

Title: Reactive acoustic silencer
Inventor: ALLEN DONALD L
IPC: F01N13/04
Filed: 1996-12-04
Abstract: An acoustic duct silencer (10, 64, 68) is disclosed having opposed sidewall baffles (20, 21) which are disposed in a duct (12) such that a cavity (30) is defined between the baffles (20, 21) and the adjacent duct sidewalls (14, 15), the space between the baffles bordering a passageway (32) in the duct for the flow of a fluid medium therethrough. Each baffle (20, 21) features an array of generally parallel spaced-apart elongate slots (38) which substantially span the vertical or horizontal breadth of the baffles. The baffles preferably have relatively large effective thickness so that the slots (38) formed therein have a significant depth to them. In this manner, an integral array of resonators are provided having a significant slot or throat depth for the attenuation of low frequency sound.

Title: A device for locking a window sash in a tilted position
Inventor: MEUNIER SCOTT
IPC: E05F1/10
Filed: 1998-06-23
Abstract: A locking device 20 for countering the force exerted by a balance mechanism while a window sash is in a tilted position or removed from such a position in a window frame comprises a shoe 22 and a sash pin 32, the shoe engaging the walls of a jamb or jamb liner 10 when the sash is tilted. The shoe has a pair of arms 24, 26, one of which terminates in a barb 28, while the other terminates in an angled edge 44, such that upon rotation, the shoe forms a wedge within the walls 10. The shoe further includes a plurality of prongs 52, 54, 56, 58 disposed between the arms for retaining the sash pin, and a bore 30 for retaining an attachment member 78 coupling the shoe to the balance mechanism. The sash pin 32 further comprises a tab for preventing disengagement from the shoe during installation in a window frame. In response to tilting of the window sash away from the vertical axis, the device 20 assumes a locked position as the sash pin 32 rotates the shoe 22 and the barb 28 and the angled edge 44 engage the walls 10 such that the shoe 22 is locked in place and effectively counters the forces exerted thereon by the balance.

Title: Adjustable buckle/clip which rotates on tensioning
Inventor: BRUMPTON ANTHONY MICHAEL
IPC: A44B11/04
Filed: 1998-10-08
Abstract: The buckle includes grips 3A,4A (Fig.5C) at an upper end and grips 3B,4B (Fig.5C) at a lower end. In use, one end 10A (Fig.5C) of a strap 10 (Fig.5C) is threaded through a gap 9 (Fig.5C) between the grips 3B.4B to fold back on itself. Similarly, one end 11A (Fig.5D) of a strap 11 (Fig.5D) is threaded through a gap between the grips 3A,4A to fold back on itself. Tension is then applied in opposite directions (see arrows,Fig.5E) along the straps to cause the buckle to rotate about a point Z. When the buckle has rotated approximately 180 to a locked position, further tensioning causes depression of nose portions 8A,8B (Fig.5F) against respective grips 3A,3B to securely clamp part of the respective strap therebetween. The buckle may be used to secure straps about compressible material and baled material prone to shrinkage.

Title: Cap or lid with spring bias sliding cover to prevent felt tip pen nib drying out
Inventor: MARTINEZ RICHARD LIONEL MANUEL
IPC: B43K5/17
Filed: 1999-02-05
Abstract: A user slides the cap back along the pen barrel to reveal the pen's nib - as the cap is retracted a sliding panel at the tip moves back to allow the nib to be projected. The cap and sliding panel are spring-loaded so that when the user lets go of the pen the cap and panel automatically return to cover the nib. The intention is to alleviate the need to remember to replace pen caps in order to prevent them from drying out. Also, as operation of the pen requires a level of dexterity it prevents unauthorised use by very small children.
