Patent IT-1312178-B1 (IT)
Inventor: STECICH MAURO
IPC: H05B41/18
Filed: 1999-04-14
Granted: 2002-04-09
Abstract: An autotransformer (10) has a first output (10a) for a starting voltage and a second output (10b) for a working voltage lower than the starting voltage. The switching contacts (12) of a relay (24) connect a load of lamps (14) selectively to the first output or the second output of the autotransformer. A timer (T) is reset and started when it receives an input signal and activates a driver circuit (21) of the relay (24) when it reaches a predetermined count. To ensure a lower electrical-energy consumption and a reliable supply to the lamps even in the presence of conditions unfavourable to the maintenance of the operative state, a current detector (15) and a voltage detector (19) are provided, as well as comparators (18, 20) for resetting and restarting the timer (T) when the current absorbed by the lamp or the supply voltage of the lamps fall below respective predetermined values. <IMAGE>

Title: Injection mould
IPC: B29C/
Filed: 1988-02-16
Abstract: The invention relates to an injection mould designed to shape thin-walled plastic pieces with an elongated opening, e.g. pieces in the form of a sleeve with a through opening or an opening plugged at one end.The study called "Construction of Injection Moulds for Thermoplastic Materials" by H. Zawistowski and D. Frenkler (Wyd. Naukowo-Techn., Warsaw, 1984) at page 298 and further presents a variety of construction solutions for moulds equipped with devices to flip off moulded pieces from a punch. Chapter 10.2.5 of that study discusses sleeve strippers designed to remove thin-walled pieces from a mould. A stripper of that kind is shaped as a sleeve built on a knock-out plate, its inner surface corresponding to the shape of a punch. After opening a mould a power transmission system causes a stripper to move along a punch and slip pieces off the mould.If oblique pins are used for power transmission, their length is limited by the height of a mould, which means that they cannot be used for removing pieces from long punches. On the other hand, application of hydraulic or pneumatic power transmission systems makes construction of a mould much more complicated and costly.The aim of this invention is to remove the above-mentioned disadvantages of known injection moulds by developing a new mechanically powered device for stripping moulded pieces from punches designed particularly to enable production of relatively long thin-walled pieces.According to the invention, a mould is equipped with a slidably mounted stripper placed on a punch. The stripper is connected through a reversible tension member with a rotary lever set on a bearing. The lever has an opening shaped as an obtuse angle, with one of its arms parallel to the axis of a closed mould. A pin, whose one end is slidably mounted on a knock-out plate, is placed in the opening. The knock-out plate is equipped with...

Title: Insects repellant
Inventor: STELTENKAMP ROBERT J
IPC: A61K8/00
Filed: 1992-02-18
Abstract: N-monosubstituted neoalkanamides of 11 to 14 carbon atoms wherein the substituent on the amide nitrogen is cyclic (aromatic or cycloaliphatic, such as aryl or cycloalkyl) and of at least five carbon atoms, have been discovered to be insect repellent, providing that any aromatic substituent is unsubstituted at the ortho position and that when the neoalkanoyl moiety is pivaloyl the total number of carbon atoms in the N-cyclic neoalkanamide is at least 12. Such neoalkanamides are useful as repellents against cockroaches, including American, German and Oriental cockroaches, and are also effective against mosquitoes (both Anopheles and Aedes), black flies and carpenter ants, and to some extent against deer ticks. They may be applied to areas, locations and items which are desirably to be kept free of such insects, with applications being direct or of solutions or emulsions thereof, preferably by spraying, or in detergent compositions or other products to be applied to such areas, etc. Because the described neoalkanamides are desirably substantive to surfaces and are usually in liquid state, they give long lasting repellency to such areas, etc., and tests have shown them to be sufficiently long lasting.
