Abstract: A vibratory plough assembly 201 incorporates a vertical ground parting blade 202 with a front cutting edge 203 and a ripper tooth 208. The blade 202 is bifurcated rearwardly of the cutting edge 203, the blade 202 being formed by two spaced-apart side plates 214. The upper part of the plates 214 constitute a support frame which is pivotally connected by a pin 205 to a base plate 240. Attached rearwardly of the pivot pin 205 and preferably cantilevered beyond the plates 214 is a vibrator unit 232. The vibrator unit 232 when operational provides a vibratory frequency of between 5Hz and 17Hz to the ripper tooth 208 in both a vertical and arcuate path. The pivot pin 205 is preferably located above or forwardly of the cutting edge 203. The base plate 240 and support frame, by virtue of the vibratory unit 232, experience relative movement in the manner of a pair of jaws the mouth of which extends rearwardly. Buffers 252 located between the base plate 240 and the support frame tend to bias the jaws into an open condition. A mounting means 400 enables the assembly 201 to be attached to a tractor vehicle so that in use, a trench is dug by the assembly 201 and cable, which passes from a forward position to a rearward position via cable guides 215 located between the plates 214, can be laid. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus for the automated and facilitated handling and operation of a biopsy needle system (22), having a first inner needle (86) component and a second outer needle (96) component. The first inner (86) and second outer needles (96) are provided with first and second handles (88.98), respectively, which are fitted into first and second yokes (46,47) of the apparatus. The apparatus is configured to maintain the first inner (86) and second outer needles (96) in a first position, during insertion of the biopsy needle point into the tissue being sampled. The apparatus is further configured to move the first inner (86) and second outer needles (96) into second and third positions, respectively, in rapid, automated succession so as to segment and enclose a tissue sample, which may be tested after removal of the biopsy needle system from the tissue. A tissue sample inspection feature permits facilitated repositioning and maintenance of the first inner needle (86) relative to the second outer needle (96) after retrieval of the tissue sample to, in turn, enable inspection of the retrieved tissue sample without removal of either needle from the apparatus. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This implant comprises a part (2) intended for the bone anchoring, and a body (3) for fastening onto a rod (4), the body comprising two lateral branches (5) delimiting a channel (6) which is open on either side of the body in order to receive the rod, and a threaded plug (8) which is adapted in order to be screwed between the branches; between the plug and the rod, a plate (14) is fastened to a collar (15), with which it forms a block (16). The plate (14) is curved and has a concave surface (14a) which is adapted in order to be applied onto the surface of the rod. The curvature of the plate (14) allows the rod (4) to be blocked with a relatively small clamping pressure, by distributing forces, which improves the resistance of the rod to alternate flexion in the body (3), as well as improving the fatigue strength. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a step conveyor (not shown) for fresh boxless sand moulds (not shown) and comprising at least two sets of interdigitating parallel bars (3,4) adapted to support and move said sand moulds, the main novel feature consists in that the top of each bar (3,4) is covered or coated by a layer of a material with a considerably lower thermal conductivity than that of steel, in the example shown consisting of a top rail (9) secured to a base member (7) by means of screws (10), said top rail being made of a suitable synthetic resin, such as low-pressure polyethylene with ultra-high molecular weight. With this arrangement, the tendency for moisture from the fresh sand moulds to condense on the conveyor bars (3,4) is considerably reduced or eliminated, thus reducing or eliminating the tendency for sand from the moulds to adhere to the conveyor bars. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fluid dampened support for a bearing such as a tilt pad bearing or a rolling element bearing such as a ball bearing, needle bearing, roller bearing and the like. The fluid dampened support includes a network of closely spaced beams which act as structural springs which support the outer race of the roller bearing for movement in any direction. The spring rate or constant of these structural springs can be caused to change after a selected amount of deflection. The amount of deflection needed to cause the change in spring rate can be adjusted to suit the particular application. A liquid is provided in the spaces between the beams to dampen movement of the pads. The damping rate can be made to change with movement of the pads. The structure and space between the beams is designed so as to provide virtually any reasonable damping characteristics. By providing such damping characteristics, the bearings are able to limit or damp out the vibrations occurring when the supported member passes through natural frequencies before reaching operating speed. This allows use of the rolling element bearing in high speed equipment such as compressors and turbines.

Abstract: An overcurrent protective circuit in which the source of an N-type depletion MOS (1) is connected to the source of a P-type depletion MOS (2), the gate of the N-type depletion MOS (1) to the drain of the P-type depletion MOS (2) through a resistor and others, and the gate of the P-type depletion MOS (2) to the drain of the N-type depletion MOS (1) through a resistor and others. A semiconductor circuit to which such an overcurrent protective circuit is parallely connected through a rated value correcting circuit. Also, this invention provides an overcurrent cut-off circuit which operates, fundamentally, on the same cut-off principle as that of the above-mentioned overcurrent protective circuit and which is constituted of an enhancement MOS. Then, by so arranging the gate circuit that the gate voltage does not become greater than a certain value, the overcurrent is suppressed to approximately 1.5 to 2 times the rated current, thus effectuating the cut-off.

Abstract: A cylinder and sleeve combination, such as those found in fluid control devices, having closely positioned moving elements that leach one or more substances upon sustained contact with the subject, reactive fluid. One embodiment comprises a metering pump which utilizes small clearances that were heretofore unacceptably tight for the applications disclosed. The materials used to form at least one of the moving elements allow a substance to leach out of the moving elements as a result of a chemical reaction with the fluid, and the leached substance undergoes a separate reaction with the fluid which causes it to coagulate. The various embodiments of the present invention avoid binding of the moving elements by providing at least one scraping edge which continuously scrapes away the coagulum forming between these elements. The scraping edge is advantageously configured so as not to interfere with the operative movement of these elements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hierarchical synchronization method for a telecommunications system employing message-based synchronization and to a telecommunications system employing message-based synchronization and comprising a plurality of nodes interconnected by transmission lines (A, B). In the method the nodes interchange signals containing synchronization messages with information on the priority of the respective signal in the internal synchronization hierarchy of the system. In order to shorten the time periods of state transitions occurring in system failures without any risk of losing synchronization, a transmission line between two nodes is monitored to verify its bidirectionality, and as soon as the bidirectionality of the line cannot be verified, the use of the line for synchronization is prohibited.
