Abstract: A fuel tank for a motor cycle has a filling orifice recessed below the top of the tank whereby air spaces will be maintained above the fuel level at all times. A protrusion or blister at one side of the tank at the lowest level of the tank forms a sump from which fuel enters an engine supply pipe. The pipe extends transversely below the tank and then turns upwardly to terminate at an open end above maximum fuel level thus acting as a tank vent. Another pipe tapped from the point of upturn leads fuel to the engine.If the cycle were to fall over on one side when the blister will be at the highest point, the tank air space will be transferred to the blister effectively isolating the engine supply pipe from the fuel. Should the cycle fall over on the other side, air will enter the open end of the fuel supply pipe to destroy any siphon which might otherwise act to drain fuel from the tank. In either case, fuel spillage will be limited to whatever small quantity is in the fuel supply pipe system. The filler orifice is of course taken to be properly closed.

Abstract: A motion detector responsive for infrared radiation, e.g. to use in burglar-alarm installations, comprises an elongate frustopyramidal box with an entrance opening at one end, a concave mirror at the opposite end and four flat, internally reflecting longitudinal walls, two of them converging toward the entrance end on opposite sides of a plane of symmetry with which they include an angle between about 8 DEG  and 15 DEG . A pyroelectric radiation sensor near the entrance end, lying in the vicinity of the focal point of the concave mirror, is disposed for illumination by beams of parallel rays in a limited number of fields of view; these beams approach the entrance end at different azimuthal angles, included with the preferably vertical plane of symmetry, but occupy closely adjoining regions inside the box. A planar deflector at the entrance end, bisected by the plane of symmetry, also establishes a limited number of elevational angles for the beams focused upon the radiation sensor.

Abstract: The valve piece of a toilet-tank discharge valve is moved into its open position by the release activation of an associated activating mechanism. It usually remains in this position until the flushing process is complete and the drops back into the closed position. The valve piece can also be moved back into its closed position ahead of time by discontinuance activation. The activating mechanism has a shift mechanism that can be reversed in its operating direction by a change of state in the toilet tank associated with release activation in such a way that discontinuance activation can result from renewed activation of one and the same activating mechanism in the same direction as during release activation. The device is convenient to operate and provides a wide range of possible ways of designing the operating element from the aspect of appearance. Simple remote operating devices can also be employed. The shift mechanism can also be shifted back in accordance with the further change of state in the tank resulting from discontinuance activation and from regular closure.

Abstract: A sustained controllable gas flame. The hydrogen generator utilized is that for separating gasses from water having impurities and other gasses entrapped therein. The gasses separated from the water comprises hydrogen, oxygen, and the non-combustible gasses, such as nitrogen. The nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen are mixed as they are released in the process by the generator and collected as the mixture of gasses in the collection chamber of the generator. The method and system comprises a nozzle of a given configuration connected through a line to the uppermost region of the gas collection chamber of the hydrogen generator. The nitrogen reduces the velocity and temperature of the burning flame from that of the hydrogen/oxygen mixture. To further control the temperature and velocity of the burning gas mixture there is added to the collection chamber other non-burnable gasses. The configuration of the nozzle and its port opening is dependant on the mixture of gasses utilized and restricted thereby. An increase in the size of the flame requires additional port openings to prevent blowout. CROSS REFERENCE: The hydrogen/oxygen generator utilized in the present invention is that disclosed and claimed in my co-pending U.S. patent application, Serial Number: 302,807, filed: September 16, 1981, for: HYDROGEN GENERATOR SYSTEM. In that process for separating hydrogen and oxygen atoms from water having impurities, the water is passed between two plates of similar non-oxidizing metal. No electrolyte is added to the water. The one plate has placed thereon a positive potential and the other a negative potential from a very low amperage direct-current power source. The sub-atomic action of the direct current voltage on the non-electrolytic water causes the hydrogen and oxygen atoms to be separated ... and similarly other gasses entrapped in the water such as nitrogen. The contaminents in the water that are not released are forced to disassociate themselves and may be collected or utilized and disposed of in a known manner. The direct current acts as a static force on the water molecules; whereas the non-regulated rippling direct current acts as a dynamic force. Pulsating the direct current further enhances the release of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms from the water molecules.

Granted: 1989-06-28
Abstract: A method of making a parallel programmed electronic matrix array includes forming at least one layer of a phase changeable material on a conductive substrate, the material preferably formed of amorphous material and having substantially nonconductive and comparatively high conductive states, and irradiating selected areas of the layer to convert them to the other state. Thereafter, in a preprogrammed embodiment, first and second sets of electrically conductive address lines are formed on respective opposite sides of the layer such that they cross each other at an angle to form a plurality of crossover points. In a field programmable array, the selected areas are irradiated through one set of lines.In accordance with another embodiment, the selected areas are irradiated through a mask. One set of lines is preferably formed by removing portions of the conductive substrate. The other can be formed by detecting the locations of the layer portions of one of the states and aligning the lines on the layer according to such detection.A diode structure can be formed with or in place of the phase changeable material.
