Abstract: Products and methods for controlling the porosity and permeation of a web are provided using a curable thixotropic shear thinnable polymer composition that preferably encapsulates a plurality of fibers of the web and/or forms an internal layer within the web. Webs suitable for several different uses are featured, for example medical garments resistant to permeation by a virus or bacteria. The effective pore size of the web is controlled by regulating various factors such as the thickness of the polymer composition encapsulating the fibers and the thickness and placement of the internal polymer layer. Other factors include the polymer density, structure, and crosslinking orientation, as well as the diffusion, permeation and sorption of the polymer.

Abstract: On décrit un ensemble de freinage à disque dans lequel un corps de piston (20) annulaire à simple effet fonctionnant dans un alésage circulaire est utilisé pour mettre en place un premier élément d'une paire de plaquettes annulaires (102, 103) dans un ensemble rotor (101). Le frein inclut un mécanisme à billes et à rampe comprenant une plaque tournante (30) qui agit sur une plaque d'avancement (40) via des billes (35). Ladite plaque d'avancement (40) agit sur une bague de réglage (50) engagé par filetage dans une paroi périphérique du piston (20). La rotation de la bague de réglage (50) par rapport au piston (20) règle le jeu du frein, et un élément de réglage (60) assure la rotation automatique de la bague de réglage (50) pour un réglage automatique du frein. L'élément de réglage (60) comprend, de préférence, un premier engrenage (63) et un deuxième engrenage (65) reliés par un embrayage à ressort (67) et fonctionnant entre une denture de la plaque tournante (30) et une denture de la bague de réglage (50). On décrit en outre un élément de réglage manuel (70). L'actionneur à simple effet permet l'application d'une pression uniforme autour de l'ensemble rotor (101), ce qui élimine la difficulté de synchroniser de multiples actionneurs.

Abstract: A plant serves as a mean for production of a fibre web of synthetic fibres, such as plastic fibres and absorbent fibres, such as viscose and cellulose fibres. The plant includes a forming head preliminary to lay a homogeneously and smoothly distributed fibre layer on a net shaped wire. Furthermore the plant includes a hydro-entangling section with liquid nozzles with powerful liquid jets to treat the in the forming head formed fibre layer, which consists of both synthetic—and absorbent fibres. The plant also includes an oven subsequently to thermal bond the synthetic fibres with cross bonds in the affected areas. Finally the dried web is winded up in a roller. By the help of the plant according to the invention, by higher production speed than known previously a fibre web can be produced, which is far cheaper, and which has a better and more homogeneous structure than similar conventional fibre webs.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising a snowboard boot and a binding interface including an interface feature that is adapted to releasably engage with a snowboard binding. The binding interface is movably mounted to the boot so that the boot can flex in a side-to-side direction through an angle relative to the binding interface to provide side-to-side flexibility. In one embodiment, the binding interface is mounted to the boot at a pair of laterally spaced attachment points with a pair of strapless fasteners. In another embodiment, the binding interface is mounted to at least one attachment point and a portion of the boot is flexible between the attachment point and a side. In other embodiments, at least a portion of the interface feature does not protrude below the bottom surface of the boot, and the interface feature does not protrude beyond the sides of the boot. In yet other embodiments, the apparatus includes an adjustment member to adjustably restrict the side-to-side flexibility between the boot and the binding interface, and a dampening element that dampens the side-to-side flexibility. The boot may include an arcuate lower surface that extends across the boot with the binding interface mounted to the boot below the arcuate lower surface. A fluid-filled bladder may be provided to control the side-to-side flexibility of the boot. The binding interface may be slidably mounted to the boot using arcuate surfaces, such as convex and concave surfaces, that allow the boot to slide across the binding interface.

Abstract: A ratchet wrench including a handle, a drive stud, and a ratchet mechanism further includes a tool release mechanism. The tool release mechanism includes a tool release actuator which forms a recess. A reversing lever is coupled to the ratchet mechanism and is movable to forward, non-ratcheting and reverse positions to select a forward ratchet direction, a non-ratcheting action, and a reverse ratchet direction, respectively, for the ratchet mechanism. The direction control element carries a protruding element that is shaped to fit into a recess in the tool release actuator when the direction control element is in the forward position, to remain outside the recess when the direction control element is in the non-ratcheting position, and to fit into the recess when the direction control element is in the reverse position. The protruding element impedes inadvertent operation of the tool release mechanism when the direction control mechanism is in either the forward or the reverse positions. The direction control element can be mounted internally or externally of the wrench, and the ratchet wheel of the ratchet mechanism can be centered by a protruding element formed on an inner surface of the handle and sized to slide within an annular recess of the ratchet wheel.
