Abstract: Mécanisme de transport destiné à transporter des documents plats (5) placés sur la tranche dans ce dernier comprenant une bande transporteuse (1) horizontale qui achemine des piles de documents placés sur la tranche dans un premier sens d'alimentation. Des rouleaux coniques (9) dont le sens d'alimentation est perpendiculaire à celui de la bande transporteuse (1) sont prévus à l'extrémité du dispositif de transport pour fournir les documents (5) dans un sens qui est perpendiculaire au premier sens d'alimentation. L'utilisation de rouleaux coniques (9) permet de donner aux documents (5) une vitesse perpendiculaire graduelle plutôt que brusque et diminue par conséquent les contraintes s'exerçant sur le mécanisme d'entraînement des rouleaux, les rouleaux (9) eux-mêmes et les documents (5) à des vitesses élevées de débit de la machine. L'utilisation de rouleaux coniques (9) permet également de fournir les documents de manière décalée à un dispositif d'alimentation (17) qui à son tour les distribue à une unité de tri située en aval dudit dispositif d'alimentation (17) qui trie les documents (5) avec moins de défauts d'alimentation et moins de contraintes.

Abstract: A metering device for controlling the flow of granular material through a conduit. The metering device includes a electrical coil operably associated with the conduit, a ferromagnetic latching strip disposed in the magnetic field produced by the coil, and a pivoting gate including a magnet that is attracted toward and repelled from the latching strip as the direction of electrical current flowing through the coil is changed. A closed container includes the metering device secured to its bottom so that the granular material can be dispensed only through the meter. The closed container is electrically connected by wires to a dispensing controller located in the tractor cab. The granular material, such as insecticide, is simultaneously and equally dispensed at the desired rate to the seed furrows from all the individual planting units of the planter.

Abstract: Nondigestible fat compositions useful as a replacement for triglyceride fats or oils in foods are disclosed. These compositions have relatively flat Solid Fat Content (SFC) profile slopes between typical room and body temperatures. The nondigestible fat compositions comprise a liquid nondigestible oil and nondigestible particles of solid polyol polyester material dispersed in the oil in an amount sufficient to control passive oil loss. The ester groups of the solid polyol polyester material comprise (i) at least about 15% ester groups formed from C20-C26 long chain saturated fatty acid radicals, and (ii) ester groups formed from fatty or other organic acid radicals which are dissimilar said long chain saturated fatty acid radicals. The molar ratio of said dissimilar acid radicals to said long chain saturated fatty acid radicals ranges from about 0.1:7.9 to about 3:5. Moreover, the dissimilar acid radicals cannot consist solely of C2-C12 short chain saturated fatty acid radicals, C20 or higher long chain unsaturated fatty acid radicals, or a combination of said short chain saturated and said long chain unsaturated fatty acid radicals. Edible fat-containing products containing these nondigestible fat compositions can be less waxy tasting due to the lower level of solids required for passive oil loss control.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for rectal administration which comprises a benzimidazole compound having antiulcer activity and a salt of C6-20 fatty acid, both of which are intermingled with each other in a base for rectal administration. The composition for rectal administration of the present invention is effective for the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers, is excellent in the stability of the active ingredient therein and the absorption thereof to thereby insure an early attainment of therapeutically effective blood concentration and permits control of the rate of absorption of the drug. Furthermore, the composition for rectal administration of the present invention swells in the intestinal tract, attaches itself to the mucosa, and releases the active ingredient gradually over a long time to supply the drug at a high concentration and with high efficiency. Therefore, the expected therapeutic efficacy can be obtained at a low dosage level with a minimum of side effect.

Abstract: In a process for perforating smooth, skinned surfaces of open cell plastic foams, an extruded plastic foam sheet (16) is heated, vacuum formed, cooled and one of the facing skins (12,13) is perforated by needles (4). Process equipment has a tool part (11) with fixed or movable needle (4) in a matrix pattern. Needle tips (18) extend above the tool (11) surface during perforation. Pref. in process variations (i) the sheet (16) may be coextruded with a coloured or uncoloured facing layer of similar or dissimilar material to the sheet (16) before vacuum forming and perforating or (ii) the plastic sheet (16) itself is extruded without facing layers. Needling may be performed before or after sheet (16) thermoforming. Needles (4) may oscillate backwards and forwards or are fixed in a tool block which is moved towards the sheet (16) supported on a backing plate. In an alternative process perforating is effected by needles on a rotating roller, prior to thermoforming. A container can be perforated in both sidewalls and base by needles moving perpendicular to the respective surfaces. In a further alternative process the thermoformed prod. is moved to a perforating station and pressed against a fixed plate by moveable perforating blocks. Needles fixed to a plate are then raised to perforate the prod. resting on the perforating block.

Abstract: A motor vehicle electric cigar lighter in the form of a metal receptacle shell is adapted to receive a lighter plug, and a combined assembler and connector plug is attached to the rear of the shell. A bimetallic clip in the shell engages and energizes a usual lighter plug inserted therein. A fastener stud carries the bimetallic clip, and has a shank projecting from the rear of the shell. The combined assembler and connector plug includes a hollow molded plastic plug body having a recess adapted to receive a female electrical connector receptacle on the vehicle's wiring harness. The assembler and connector plug further comprises a contact prong member disposed in the recess of the plug body and adapted to mate with the female electrical connector receptacle. The prong member has a base portion which is molded or embedded in the plug body, and the base portion has an opening that receives the shank of the fastener stud, by a force fit. The arrangement is such that the plastic plug body is secured to the receptacle shell by the fastener stud, which latter also effects electrical connection between the bimetallic clip and the prong member.
