Title: Improved cylinder lock system
Inventor: EDEN CHARLES W JR
IPC: E05B27/00
Filed: 1998-01-26
Granted: 2000-09-07
Abstract: A cylinder lock with a resiliently biased auxiliary locking pin, the auxiliary locking pin having a first end which functions as a tenon and a second end which defines a cam follower. The first end of the auxiliary locking pin extends into the keyway and is engaged by a cooperating key blade having a longitudinal slot which defines a mortise. The second end of the auxiliary locking pin normally engages a recess in the inner diameter of the lock shell, a camming surface being provided at one side of the recess. The depth profile of the mortise increases from an initial tenon receiving depth, at the blade tip, to a functional depth, at a point displaced from the blade tip, where the locking pin is partially withdrawn from the shell recess to enable rotation of the lock core relative to the shell. Complete pin withdrawal commensurate with unlocking, in response to camming action instituted upon lock core rotation, is permitted by an aperture in the base of the key blade slot which receives a shaped pin extension which projects from the first end of the auxiliary locking pin.

Title: Process for making expanded slag
Inventor: HORVAT DAVID T
IPC: C04B5/02
Filed: 1998-06-12
Granted: 2001-05-10
Abstract: Metallurgical slag is expanded to produce a lightweight solid by forming a stream of molten liquid slag of controlled rate of flow and mixing the stream of slag with a controlled quantity of water and flowing the interacting mixture of slag and water into a receptacle. The interaction between slag and water is allowed to proceed for a predetermined period of time to form an expanded solid without the addition of any additional cooling water which would otherwise quench the material and vitrify it. In the receptacle, a vaned rotor operates to segment the interacting mixture of slag and water and project the segmented mixture through the air for collection into a heap.
