Abstract: The invention comprises a multi-functional worker's harness assembly of the type comprising interacting shoulder and sub-pelvic harnesses. The shoulder harness includes a pair of separate, interacting first and second strap sections. Each strap section has a pair of ends secured to one part of a two-part releasable buckle. Each strap section, when in position on a wearer, extends from one end near the wearer's waist at the front, over the opposite shoulder of the wearer, down the wearer's back and around the wearer's side to the other end of each respective strap section at a point on the same side as it is positioned on the front. The strap sections, where they cross over each other at each of the front and back of the wearer, pass through and are held in overlapping fashion by a friction buckle. The sub-pelvic harness includes first and second strap sections, each having a pair of ends, each end secured to a second part of the two-part releasable buckle. Each of said strap sections of the sub-pelvic harness are of a length to permit at least partial wrapping about a different one of a worker' s legs and ends of the strap sections of the sub-pelvic harness being buckled to a corresponding buckle part of a corresponding one of said shoulder harness strap sections so that said two ends of said first shoulder strap section are connectable to said two ends of said first sub-pelvic strap section to form four releasable buckle connections, two of said four releasable buckle connections securing a worker's legs in the harness assembly. A further strap section is secured to and extends between intermediate portions of the sub-pelvic harness strap sections for resting behind the wearer's seat when in position. The other two of said four releasable buckle connections which are at the front when in position on the wearer, are provided with adjustment means allowing symmetrical adjustment of said strap sections of said sub-pelvic harness when in position on the wearer for one of elongating and shortening the harness assembly.

Title: Process for modifying a polyethylene in an extruder
Inventor: PIANA ALAIN
IPC: B29C48/395
Filed: 1995-08-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for modifying a polyethylene in an extruder. The polyethylene is brought into contact with oxygen or a gas mixture containing oxygen in the extruder, optionally in the presence of a relatively small quantity or preferably in the absence of short-term antioxidant agent. The polyethylene thus brought into contact is treated thermomechanically in the molten state in the extruder supplying a relatively high specific mechanical energy, the treatment being conducted to its term when the value of the loss tangent of the polyethylene characterizing its viscoelastic state decreases with a desired proportion. The polymer thus treated is particularly suitable for being transformed into film by blown extrusion with a considerably increased bubble stability.

Title: Eavestrough downspout
Inventor: CASSIDY DOUGLAS A
IPC: E04D13/08
Filed: 1995-12-04
Abstract: An automatic downspout is taught having an extension which swings, in response to passage of water through the downspout, between a storage position and a position for transport of water.
