Abstract: PASTA EXTRUDER APPARATUS FOR ATTACHMENT TO A FOOD PROCESSOR        OR SIMILAR APPLIANCE               INVENTOR:  JAMES E. WILLIAMS     ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          Pasta extruder apparatus is provided for attachment to a food processor or similar appliance of the type having a base containing a motor and a motor-driven rotary tool drive.          This extruder apparatus includes a housing having an opening for receiving a pasta mixture which is to be extruded when the housing is operatively positioned on the base of the food processor.  The housing carries actuator means for actuating cooperating actuator means in the base when the housing is operatively positioned on the base.  A barrel surrounding a feedscrew is positioned in the housing with an opening in the barrel which is in alignment with the opening in the housing for receiving the pasta mixture into the barrel.  An extrusion die having a plurality of extrusion orifices is mounted on the discharge end of the barrel, and a feedscrew drive is positioned on the rear end of the barrel for driving the feedscrew by coupling it to the motor-driven rotary tool drive shaft in the base of the food processor.  A removable tray is mounted on the housing for feeding the pasta mixture to the attachment.  The tray has a feed tube which fits into the opening in the housing such that the user can look down through the feed tube into the barrel but cannot get fingers into the extruder.  The tray is removably mounted by pivoting the tray in the housing which swings a cam mounted under the tray into a groove for actuating the rod for activating the motor in the housing and at the the same time locks the feed tube in the barrel.  The feedscrew drive has an indicator positioned thereon which is viewable from the top of the housing indicating the position of the top end of a socket which fits onto the tool drive shaft so that the housing may be properly placed and aligned on the tool drive shaft.  A storage compartment is provided in the housing for aiding in changing the dies.  A plunger having blades which fit into slots in the opening of the feed tube leading into the extruder barrel is provided, and includes a spatula handle.  The pasta extruder apparatus may be conveniently mounted on the base of a food processor as an attachment having all the safety features of food processors, including an aligned actuator rod which does not activate the motor until the removable tray as well as the housing containing the rod are properly positioned on the base of the food processor.  This pasta extruder attach-ment is compact, attractive, and contains the same interlock safety operating mechanism as the food processor to which it is attached.  This attachment advantageously uses the motor and motor drive as they exist in the food processor base, thereby eliminating components and saving weight, space and cost.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           A switch operating apparatus for the disconnecting switch of a movable electric device carried on a vehicle such as a trailer comprises a rotating plate rotatably mounted on the side of the vehicle, an upper operating rod connected to the disconnecting switch, a lower operating rod connected to the upper operating rod by a universal or other flexible coupling, and an operating handle which detachably connects to the lower operating rod.  The rotating plate has a downward-extending operating position and a horizontally-extending storage position.  When in the operating position, it can be safely and easily operated by an operator standing on the ground, and in the storage position, it is clear of the tractor truck which tows the trailer. It is thus superior to conventional switch operating apparatuses which need to be detached from the disconnecting switch when the vehicle is moved or else are mounted so high on the vehicle that the operator can not operate the apparatus while standing on the ground.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         A single use thermal switch having a tubular casing within which a mechanical isolation cage is axially movable.  The cage is normally urged by a helical compres-sion spring against a fusible pellet which melts at a temperature at which it is desired to disconnect the electrical circuit.  An electrically conductive contact member extending transversely through the isolation cage is normally urged by a helical compression spring toward one end of the cage and against the end of one electrical lead that is coaxial with the casing.  The contact member is foldable along a line across its center.  The force of the contact member pressed against the end of the lead urges the contact member to fold to cause the ends thereof to be forced against the inside wall of the casing to establish electrical connection between the casing and the lead through the contact member.

Abstract: INDUSTRIAL CONTROL SYSTEM WITH INTERCONNECTED    REMOTELY LOCATED COMPUTER CONTROL UNITS         ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE        A control system for controlling an industrial process includes a plurality of remotely located process control units (remoted) each coupled to an associated input/output device(s) and adapted to communicate with one another through a dual channel communications link.  Each remote has a unique succession number within a predetermined succession order with supervisory communication-control of the communication link sequentially transferred to each remote according to its succession number to provide a revolving or master for the moment control of the system.  Digital information in the form of data and control information blocks is transmitted between the remotes with the blocks transmitted twice on each channel of the communications link.  The destination remote tests the blocks validity on one of the two dual channels and, if validated, responds with an acknowledgement signal (ACK) and, if invalid, tests the blocks on the other, alternate channel and then responds with an acknowledgement or non-acknowledgement signal (NAK) depending upon whether the data blocks tests on the alternate channel are found valid or invalid.  A non-acknowledgement from the destination remote re-triggers the transmission of the blocks from the source remote.  The system provides high overall operating efficiency since the remotes will maintain a system-like integrity of each side of a severed communication link and the redundant block transmission with alternate line checking provides very high information transfer reliability.

Abstract: ABSTRACT            The invention relates to a method for the flow-feeding of sheets which are delivered via a feed table, in a continuous stream, to an aligning device and, after aligning, are transmitted to the sheet-processing press.          During this aligning operation the sheets maintain their motion in the direction of the sheet-processing press.          The method consists of the following steps:          Firstly, the front edge is aligned by a machine part with front lays which is moved synchronously with the sheet-processing press, then the side edge is aligned and finally the aligning device holds or transports the aligned sheet in the desired position until the in-register transfer of the sheet to a further conveying element is guaranteed.     Thus, the sheets are aligned on the feed table without coming to rest.

Abstract: HYDRAULIC SYSTEM WITH PROPORTIONAL CONTROL                   ABSTRACT     An hydraulic control system is disclosed for energizing a load, such as the lift cylinder of an electric lift truck, with a minimum of power loss during the transition from zero to full energization, i.e. during the feathering range. An electric motor drives a positive displacement pump which supplies the flow requirements of dif-ferent load circuits, one having a greater flow requirement than the other and requiring higher pump speed.  A proportioning valve of the open center type provides full flow to the tank when the valve is closed and full flow to the load circuit having the greater flow requirement when the valve is open.  A manually actuable lever actuates the valve through the feathering range with the pump motor in a low speed range and actuates a speed control switch to operate the motor in the high speed range when the valve is fully open.
