Patent FI-963799-A (FI)
Inventor: RICHIGER DAVID B
IPC: B65D5/4805
Filed: 1996-09-24
Abstract: There is provided a system for dispensing a plurality of nurser liners one at a time. The system includes a dispenser having a bottom wall with an edge that defines a flap, and a plurality of nurser liners stacked in a nesting arrangement. The flap is adapted to move from a first position to a second position in which the flap exposes an aperture in the bottom wall. Each one of the plurality of nurser liners has a single open end, and the open end has a flexible rim with a diameter greater than that of the aperture. The plurality of nurser liners are positioned so that the rims are adjacent the aperture with a lowermost one of the plurality of nurser liners abutting the edge. Accordingly, the edge acts as a dual-sided guide for deflecting the rim inward of the lowermost nurser liner as the rim passes through the aperture, and restricts the remainder of the plurality of nurser liners from moving with the lowermost nurser liner out of the dispenser to overcome friction forces caused by the nesting arrangement.

Abstract: 871,458. Sliding clasp fasteners. HANSEN, J. G. Jan. 13, 1959 [Jan. 14, 1958 (2)], No. 1190/59. Class 44. A method of manufacturing a sliding clasp fastener includes the steps of providing a strip 11 of resiliently flexible material comprising two parallel longitudinal spine lengths 14 joined by a weblike middle strip thinner than the spine lengths, of subjecting the web-like middle strip to a blanking-out or like operation to provide a series of longitudinally spaced transverse ribs 10 joining the spine lengths, adjacent ribs being separated by a blanked-out space 12, of folding the blanked-out strip about a longitudinal axis and bringing the two spine lengths towards each other, the ribs 10 assuming a substantially arcuate shape and of securing the spine lengths to a web 32, two stringers being adapted to be co-actingly associated in a sliding clasp fastener.

Title: Striking mechanism for synchronous motor electric clocks
IPC: G04C21/08
Filed: 1939-01-14
Abstract: 524,995. Striking mechanism for synchronousmotor clocks. SAVILLE, L. J. Jan. 14, 1939, No. 1290. [Class 139] Striking mechanism for a synchronous-motor electric clock, in which the hammer tail is moved into the path of a continuously rotating pin wheel or the like for striking comprises a striking rack H and a hammer tail F, G which engages directly with a cam portion J of the rack of such shape that after the last strike this portion J moves the tail F out of engagement with the pin wheel or the like A. The hammer spindle D carries a tail block C to which is pivoted at E a cross-bar F, G which is normally in the dotted position, Fig. 3, out of the path of the pins B on a continuously rotating wheel A in the reduction gear from the synchronousmotor. The end G is normally held to the left Figs. 3 and 6, by the curved face of an extension J, Fig. 6, on the striking rack H pivoted at I. Cams R, Fig. 7, on the centre wheel control a lever L, N, pivoted at M so that when at the striking time arm L is lifted to its topmost point the arm N meets a pin on the pawl O holding the rack H, moving pawl O to the left to release the rack which thereupon falls until its pin K meets the usual cam on the hour wheel. The falling of part J allows the end G to be moved to the right by the spring E1 so that F is in the full line position and is actuated by the pins B to lift the hammer. Each time the hammer is raised the end G rises with it, gathers the rack one tooth until the lower end J of the rack once more meets the end G and carries it to the left to lock the lever F, G once more in the slotted position. When striking commenced, the lever L dropped off cam R and arm N allowed pawl O to re-engage the rack. The release of the lever L, N is also controlled by an arm S (not shown) which itself coacts with the pins B to ensure that the arm F and pins B are in appropriate relative positions.

In the upper position of a plunger rod 18 of a spray pump passages 34 in the piston 16 which communicate with a central passage 31 and the outlet nozzle 21, are closed by the cylinder wall whereby leakage from the container is prevented. On depression of the rod the passages open to a groove 36 in the cylinder wall and a mixture of air and liquid is discharged from the chamber 35. On upward movement of the rod air is drawn in through the nozzle 21 and liquid through the valve 41 until the passages 34 are closed by the cylinder wall, after which only liquid is drawn in through the valve 41. When the plunger is depressed air may flow into the container through an opening 43 sealed by the piston in its upper position. The air/liquid ratio may be varied by selecting the length of the lower band of the piston 16.

Abstract: Polymers of butadiene in which at least 75% of the monomeric units have a cis-1,4 configuration, are made by polymerizing butadiene in the presence of a catalyst formed by mixing a p  lithium hydrocarbon, and titanium tetraiodide or titanium trichloromonoiodide.

Title: Electromedical stimulation apparatus
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 1973-01-11
Abstract: 1419980 Electromedical stimulating apparatus MEDTRONIC INC 11 Jan 1973 [13 Jan 1972 30 June 1972] 1608/73 Heading A5R [Also in Division H3] Electromedical stimulating apparatus comprises a power source 1, Figure 3, connected to a pulse generator 2, 3, 4 supplying stimulating pulses to terminals 5, 6 and including a timing circuit arranged so that for decreases in power supply voltage from an initial to a predetermined value, the width of pulses provided by the generator increase sufficiently to maintain the total energy of each pulse not less than the total energy of each pulse with said initial voltage value. The stimulator may be a heart pacemaker, or an implantable nerve or muscle stimulator. An asynchronous heart pacer which is implantable has an oscillator 3 Figure 3 in an off state of which all the transistors of the pacer are non-conductive and a previously charged capacitor 29 discharges until its voltage essentially balances the turn on voltage of transistor 22 at which time transistor 22 turns on turning on transistors 39, 31 and thus 42 to discharge a capacitor 45 through the heart. In the "on" state capacitor 29 charges up until its voltage is substantially equal to the voltage at a junction 16 less the base-emitter drop of transistor 22 at which time the oscillator turns off. If the voltage at the junction of resistors 20, 21 is above or below a predetermined level when the oscillator turns on transistors 10, 11, 12 turn on or remain off respectively and the charging path of capacitor. 29 includes transistor 12 if turned on. The pulse width is thus increased in a stepwise manner when the output of battery 7 falls below a predetermined level. The pulse width can be adjusted by adjusting a potentiometer 36 coupled magnetically to extracorporeal adjusting means. When transistors 10, 11, 12 are unable to turn on the voltage at junction 16 increases and therefore capacitor 29 charges to a higher voltage before transistor 22 turns off. Accordingly the discharge time of capacitor 29 is longer and a decrease in pulse rate accompanies the pulse width increase.  A demand pacemaker includes a heart beat amplifier 53, Figure 4, which causes a transistor 55 to discharge a capacitor 58 if a heart beat is detected within a predetermined interval. Transistors 60, 62 and 75 in combination with feedback circuit including a capacitor 83 form an astable multivibrator pulse generator which is turned on whenever capacitor 58 charges to a predetermined level. When the pulse generator turns on a transistor 59 discharges capacitor 58 and a transistor 80 discharges a capacitor 89 through the heart. The feedback loop including capacitor 83 maintains the pulse generator on after discharge of capacitor 58 until capacitor 83 has discharged to a level at which transistor 60, and thus transistors 62, 75, 59, turn off. Decreases in the power supply 50 output voltage are felt at a reference junction 86 so that proportionate and substantial increases in stimulating pulse width and interpulse interval results.
