Abstract: A method for making handleable, strong, discrete, metal-clad abrasive pellets comprises the steps of :   (a) spraying onto a bed of gas-fluidized abrasive particles a slurry of metallic powder, a binding agent, and a volatile solvent until substantially all the abrasive particles are coated with at least about 20 wt-% of said metallic powder;   (b) recovering said metal powder coated abrasive particles; and (c) heating said recovered coated particles under conditions to form a sintered continuous metal coating enveloping said abrasive particles.   Another aspect of the invention comprises a method for making saw blade segments from metal-clad abrasive particles. Preferably, the weight percent of abrasive in each pellet is from about 1 weight percent to about 10 weight percent and the metal coating weight percent ranges from about 99 weight percent to about 90 weight percent. Pellets devoid of abrasive particles; i.e., "dummy" pellets can be included in the mold cavity in order to regulate the concentration of abrasive particles in the saw blade segment.

Abstract: A flexible package preferably comprised of paper and having an opening system that controls and reduces the initial removal forces required to withdraw the compressed flexible articles from the package after the opening device portion of the system has been activated. A reinforcement sheet located at the lowermost end of the opening system protects the flexible articles contained within the package prior to activation of the opening device, and provides additional support for the package prior to opening. A substantially vertically oriented line of weakness located in the reinforcement sheet ruptures automatically when the opening device is activated permitting the flexible articles to fan out further from the package. This automatic rupturing of the reinforcement sheet reduces the compressive forces acting upon the compressed flexible articles. This in turn permits easier removal of the first few flexible articles from the package either one at a time or in multiples.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of controlling the casting parameters in the pre-fill, mould-filling and/or dwell pressure phase of the casting process in a cold-chamber die-casting machine, the casting phases being controlled as a function of the travel of a piston, which can be displaced longitudinally inside the casting chamber, in conjunction with the amount of molten metal introduced. In order to ensure precise control of the most diverse casting parameters during the pre-fill, mold-filling or dwell pressure phase of the casting process, the exact amount of molten metal (5) present in the casting chamber (2) is determined without contact by means of an optical measurement device (8), the signal from which is processed in a control device (12).

Abstract: Footwear, particularly for athletic shoes, that has a sole structure (28) copying the underlying support, stability and cushioning structures of the human foot. Still more particularly, this invention relates to the use of relatively flexible and inelastic fiber (155a, 182) within the material of the shoe sole to provide both flexibility and firmness under load-bearing pressure. It also relates to the use of sipes, particularly those that roughly parallel the foot sole of the wearer in frontal plane cross sections (152, 181), contained within the she sole under the load-bearing structures of the wearer's foot to provide the firmness and flexibility to deform to flatten under weight-bearing loads in parallel with the wearer's foot sole. Finally, it relates to providing additional shoe sole width (figures 19-22) to support those areas identified as mandatory to maintaining the naturally firm lateral support of the wearer's foot sole during extreme sideways motion while load-bearing. <IMAGE>

Two such techniques are disclosed. One technique involves the use of two non-parallel electrically charged grids which produce a radially increasing electric field, thus radially increasing the intensity of the scintillation light. Another technique involves the use of a mask of small opaque dots having a radially decreasing density covering the photosensor, thus radially increasing the intensity of the scintillation light transmitted to the photosensor. The preferred embodiment for X-ray detection consists in a detector, filled with very pure xenon at atmospheric pressure, with a 2.5 cm diameter radiation window (1), a grid with a spherical (2 cm radius) curvature (2) with its edges placed 0.8 cm away from a plane grid which is placed in contact with or close to a photomultiplier tube (4).

A narrow rectangular label (L) of shrinkable material is first provided with one or more longitudinally extending strips of adhesive (15) extending intermediate the longitudinal edges of the label at the area of the label which is to contact the portion of greatest diameter on the curved portion of the container. The strip of adhesive material is shorter than the length of the label so that the adhesive material does not contact the overlapping edges of the label. An adhesive (16) is applied to the trailing edge of the label only and the label is wrapped about the compound curved portion with the adhesive strip engaging the curved portion of the container at the area of greatest diameter. The edges of the label are overlapped and bonded and the overlapped label is then shrunk into position by moving the container and label through an oven. The curved portion of the container may have a compound curvature. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a cellular radio network and a method for performing location updating in a cellular radio system. The cellular radio network does not employ fixed location areas, as prior cellular radio networks do, but it employs a location area configuration which is subscriber station specific and dynamically adaptive. In connection with each location updating, it is therefore possible to select an optimal location area for the subscriber station at that particular moment, the selected location area being preferably of an arbitrary size and form. It is thus possible to define the location area subscriber station specifically in such a manner that, on one hand, it is sufficiently large so that the subscriber station does not have to perform location updating frequently but, on the other hand, sufficiently small so that the paging of the subscriber station does not load the cellular radio network too much. The network and method also allow the use of completely subscriber station specific location areas.
