Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for pressure processing a pumpable substance are shown and described. In a preferred embodiment, a valve is coupled to a source of a pumpable substance and a pressure vessel, the valve being movable to a first, second and third position. When the valve is in a first position, an inlet port in the valve is aligned with a passageway that is open to the pressure vessel. When the valve is in the second position, the valve body seals the passageway, and when the valve is in the third position, an outlet port provided in the valve is aligned with the passageway. The valve is therefore moved to a first position to allow a volume of pumpable substance to be forced into the pressure vessel, the valve is moved to a second position to seal the passageway while the pumpable substance is pressurized to a selected pressure for a selected period of time to achieve a desired result, and the valve is then moved to a third position to allow the treated, pumpable substance to be discharged from the pressure vessel. The inlet port and the outlet port are provided with low-pressure seals, and high-pressure seals are provided in the valve such that when the valve is in the second position, the passageway is sealed by the high-pressure seals. By separating the low-pressure and high-pressure regions and functions of the valve, high-pressure containment is simplified, and it is possible to use relatively large passageways, thereby increasing the flow rate and variety of substances that may be processed. In an alternative embodiment, the pumpable substance is pressurized and simultaneously discharged from the pressure vessel.

Abstract: This invention induces a therapeutic effect such as
"zen" by an article of clothing, by the formation
generating far-infrared radiation (weak electromagnetic
waves) at a portion corresponding to an abdominal region
under the navel. It also prevents VDT-related disorders
caused by weak electromagnetic waves by the insertion of
salt, benzoic acid, or citric acid between a portion
exposed to such waves and the human body. A therapeutic
effect is obtained by temperature stimulus caused by such
electromagnetic waves. VDT-related disorders can be
prevented by reducing the stimulus caused by weak
electromagnetic waves on the skin, by inserting salt,
benzoic acid, or citric acid between a metal accessory and
the body, or between a VDT and the body.

Abstract: A side release buckle having an improved locking
mechanism includes a male plug member and a female socket
member. The plug member has a pair of resiliently flexible
arm members. Each arm member defines a generally V shaped
latching surface arranged around the top, bottom and outer
side of the arm member. The V shaped latching surface is
adapted to engage a complimentary V shaped engagement surface
in the socket member when the plug member is fully inserted
into the socket member. The V shape of the latching surface
allows the latching surface area to be more uniformly
distributed around the top, bottom and outer side of the arm
member.

Abstract: A gain-switched optical distributor, i.e., commutator, is realized by employing an
optical rare earth-doped fiber optical amplifier as the switching element per se. Each of
the optical rare earth-doped fiber optical amplifiers acts as an ON/OFF switch. Also, the
gain-switched optical distributor of this invention is a natural fit into today's optically
amplified optical communication systems. In one embodiment, this is realized by
employing a pump select circuit in conjunction with a plurality of pumps and a plurality of
corresponding rare earth-doped fiber optical amplifiers. The particular pump and
corresponding amplifier is selected by use of a monitor arrangement to determine which
signal is to be selected and routed to an output. In another embodiment, a so-called tuned
pump arrangement is employed in conjunction with a plurality of filters and a
corresponding plurality of rare earth-doped fiber optical amplifiers. A pump tuning
arrangement is employed to control the tunable pump in order to select the appropriate
one of a plurality of optical input signals at any of a plurality of given wavelengths.

Abstract: A method for stuffing food product into a tubular food casing (12) by continuously
filling a tubular food casing to obtain a predetermined linear rate of movement of
stuffed food product (40); moving a closing device (22,24) with the food casing at said
predetermined linear rate of movement; activating said closing device to apply a
closure in the form of a tie or clip to segregate the stuffed food product into links
while the stuffed food product continues to move at the predetermined rate; and
supporting the filled food casing during the filling and closing by means of a roller
table (42) comprising indented rollers (50) and upon which the filled food casing rests, the
roller table being provided with opposing link side supports (52) containing bearings which
support the rollers and which permit the rollers to freely rotate. The roller table lacks
a roller directly beneath the closing device to form a space which permits closing of
the food casing. The link side supports move in the direction of movement and at the
speed of the closing device so that the space stays beneath the closing device at all
times during its motion and so that the rollers move in the direction and speed of the
closing device. The invention further includes a machine for practicing the method.

printing, including a photosensitive drum (9d). The
clutch stops the first system when both sensors (63,

gear (A3). Next, when both sensors (64, 62) detect
marks (72) on the drum (9d) and its driving gear (A4),
the clutch redrives. Consequently, positionings of all
the drums (9a to 9d) are performed without causing

Abstract: An electro-mechanical actuator (10) maintains an external device to
which the actuator is connected at an operating position when power is
applied to the actuator, and allows the external device to return to a
default position when the power is removed. Included in the actuator is
a housing (12) and an output coupling (14) rotatably mounted thereon.
The output coupling is configured to be connected to the external device
and displaces the external device between the operating position and the
default position. A driving device (28) is mounted in the housing for
providing a torque to the output coupling (14) to displace the external
device between the default position and the operating position when the
driving device is energized. Also provided is a torque transmitting
device (24) for transmitting and changing the torque from the driving
device to the output coupling. The torque transmitting device is
cooperatively engaged to and is located between the driving device and
the output coupling. Operatively connected to the torque transmitting
device, a retracting device (38) is configured for exerting a retracting
force to return the external device to the default position via the
transmitting device when the power to the actuator is removed. An
important feature of the invention is a piezoelectric braking device
(58) for exerting a braking force on the driving device for maintaining
the output coupling at the operating position against the retracting
force exerted by the retracting device (38) when the braking device is
activated, and for releasing the braking force when the braking device
is deactivated.
