Title: Depilation apparatus
IPC: A45D26/00
Filed: 1989-11-28
Granted: 1991-09-04
Abstract: In order to pluck-out superfluous hairs, a hand-held depilating appliance has a rotary drum which carries one or a number of rows of gripping blades so arranged as to project from the periphery of the drum and to extend in a direction parallel to its axis. Within or opposite to the recesses existing at the periphery of the rotary drum between the different rows of gripping blades, provision is made for skin protection blades having a circular external contour, the center of which coincides with the axis of the drum. These protective blades are disposed in planes perpendicular to the axis of the drum and are distributed over its entire length so as to constitute a virtual protection cylinder at the periphery of the depilating roller formed by the drum and the gripping blades.

Date Oct. 19, 1989.Systems and methods are described for achieving optimum braking/traction for a vehicle wheel (1), based upon measurement of road normal and road parallel force on the wheel axis (3). The measuring signals are continuously recorded in an electronic control unit (6) which undertakes running calculations for the friction coefficient of the wheel (1) against the ground (2), as well as the variation of the coefficient. The braking force, possibly the traction force is then altered in a continuous manner on the basis of the values of the friction coefficient and the variation thereof, in such a direction that optimum slip for the prevailing conditions is set rapidly, whereby optimum braking or traction is achieved.

Abstract: An improved release system for heat transferable laminates wherein a transferable substrate which contains a design layer is transferred from a carrier web onto an article such as a plastic bottle or container upon application of heat and pressure. The carrier web includes a nonwax polyethylene layer. The improved release system includes a polyethylene layer portion of the carrier web in contact with and adhered to a nonwax transfer layer portion of the transferable substrate. The transferable substrate including the ink design layer transfers to the article upon application of heat to the carrier while the article contacts the laminate. The transferred substrate on the article is clear and exhibits improved scuff and abrasion resistance. The nonwax transfer layer portion of the transferable substrate advantageously contains an oil which becomes activated upon application of heat to promote release of the transferable substrate from the carrier web to the article.

Abstract: A tamper-resistant part is disclosed that can conduct transactions with an external system through a moderating user-controlled computer or that can on other occasions be brought into direct connection with the external system. In the moderated configuration, the moderating computer is able to ensure that certain transactions with the external system are unlinkable to each other. In the unmoderated configuration, the tamper-resistant part can also ensure the unlinkability of certain transactions. Also testing configurations are disclosed that allow improper functioning of the tamper-resistant part, such as that which could link transactions, to be detected by user-controlled equipment. Another testing configuration can detect improper functioning of an external system that could, for instance, obtain linking information from a tamper-resistant part.

Abstract: Titanium is induction melted to produce a molten mass thereof and a water-cooled crucible (10) have a nonoxidizing atmosphere and a bottom opening (22). The current to the coil (30) used for induction melting is adjusted to produce a levitation effect on the molten mass (34) in the crucible (10) to prevent the molten mass (34) from flowing out of the bottom opening (22). The molten mass (34) is also maintained out-of-contact with the crucible (10) by providing a solidified layer (36) of titanium between the molten mass (34) and the crucible (10). After production of the molten mass (34) of titanium, the current to the induction coil (30) is reduced to reduce the levitation effect and allow the molten mass (34) to flow out of the bottom opening (22) of the crucible (10) as a free-falling stream (38) of molten titanium. The free-falling stream (38) from the crucible is directed to a tundish (48) from which the molten mass flows through a nozzle (54) for atomization. The spherical particles (42) produced by atomization are cooled to solidify them and are then collected. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1993-09-22
Abstract: A nut 15 for clamping a tie rod securing a rock has a tubular nut body 25 with a buttress thread 28. The nut body is subdivided into segments 31 by several elongated slots 30. The segments are connected by elastic ribs 26 whose cross-section is U shaped. On one end of the face the nut has a convex spherical end flange 17 which rests against an anchor plate 19. The slots extend through the flange as far as the inner wall of the ribs. Between the ribs the flange has radial notches 37, which extend as far as the nut body. In this manner the segments 31 are tangentially flexible. To clamp the tie rod, the nut is slid axially on the buttress thread of the rod. A clamping device with jaws reaches into the thread of the rod at its free end, and rests against the nut 15. When the tie rod is pulled with the jaws, the nut 15 is simultaneously forced against the anchor plate. Thus, a fast and accurate preliminary clamping of the tie rod is achieved.

Abstract: A process for enhancing the dewaterability of concentrated waste sludges which have a substantial content of a water retaining cellular structure arising from microbiological action by heat treating them at temperatures in excess of about 260 DEG F is disclosed. A preferred embodiment involves the use of treatment temperatures of less than about 390 DEG F and consequently a treatment pressure of less than about 200 psig. The heat treatment is advantageously conducted by direct contact between the concentrated waste sludge and pressurized steam. The effect of the heat treatment may be accelerated by adjusting the pH of the sludge to an extreme value, particularly an acid value of about 3 or less. It is beneficial to neutralize the concentrated waste sludge before dewatering it and it is advantageous to neutralize before completing the heat treatment.
