Abstract: ABSTRACT Novel rotary processors including sealing means to control leakage of pressure and/or material between processing passages which are maintained at significantly different pressure levels.  The processors comprise a rotatable element carrying a plurality of annular channels and a stationary element providing a coaxial. closure surface operationally arranged with -the channels to provide enclosed processing passages.  Each passage includes inlet means, outlet means and a channel blocking member all associated with the stationary element and arranged and adpated so that material fed to the inlet can be carried forward by the rotatable channel walls to the blocking member for discharge from the passage.  The passages are interconnected by material transfer grooves formed in the closure surface.  A sealing surface groove is carried by the rotor surface portions between two adjacent passages maintained at significantly different pressure levels, such as by evacuating one of the two adjacent passages, and is open to the clearance between the rotor and the closure surface.  A gate at the inlet to the downstream passage pressurizes the material in the transfer groove interconnecting the two passages, and forces pressurized material into the sealing groove as it passes under the transfer groove. Helical grooves in the rotor portion on both sides of the sealing groove reinforce the pressure in the sealing groove so that the material in the sealing groove contacts the closure surface about the entire circumference of the sealing groove, forming a continuous "Live O-Ring" seal in  the clearance between the passages.

Abstract: ABSTRACT An override speed control for the carburetor of a small internal combustion engine such as used with lawnmowers.  The control for preventing changes in speed of the engine while a speed control lever is moved into its choke position comprises a speed control lever, an intermediate or enabling lever and a throttle control lever.  The three levers are interconnected by means of extension springs one each of which connects the intermediate lever respectively to the speed control lever and the governor lever. The speed control lever in the last increment of movement of its control range actuates the choke valve of the carburetor.  The governor lever controls the throttle valve of the carburetor.  A governor driven by the engine and responsive to engine speed is connected to the governor lever.  Adjustable stop means are provided on the intermediate lever to positively stop movement of the intermediate lever during the last increment of movement of the speed control lever.  The control system maintains a constant engine speed for any setting of the speed control lever when the speed control lever is in its last increment of movement.  During this increment of movement of the control lever the intermediate lever is unresponsive to movement of the speed control lever, the speed of the engine will be maintained at the high speed setting so that the engine speed will remain constant irrespective of the choking action of the speed control lever.  The governor maintains control over the engine speed under varying loading conditions from the idle setting through the choke setting of the speed control lever.  Adjustable positive stop means are provided on the intermediate lever for defining the idle setting.
