Patent EP-0694354-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ROWE MELVIN L
IPC: B22C7/06
Filed: 1994-07-29
Abstract: A core box vent useful in core making, comprises a porous cylinder of sintered ceramic materials, the pores of such cylinder being less than will allow intrusion of the grain size of sand to be introduced to the core box. 
     A method of making cores comprises the steps of:
     (a) forming matable core box sections (25,26) with blow tubes (27) permitting introduction of an air fluidized sand mixture into the interior of the mating core box sections, and further forming one or more ceramic core box vents (20) in the exhaust side (30) of the mated core box sections to permit egress of air used to fluidize the sand mixture, said vents (20) having a labyrinth of passages (21) or pores smaller in diameter than that which allows intrusion of the grain size of said sand mixture;   (b) blowing through said blow tubes (27) into said mated core box sections a sand and resin mixture that is prevented from exiting through said vents (20), said resin being curable to polyurethane by chemical reaction;   (c) forcing a catalyst curing gas through said blow tubes (27) to cure said sand and resin mixture again without migration of any of said sand through said vents (20); and   (d) purging said core box sections (25,26) with air introduced through said blow tubes (27) and exiting from said core sand mixture via said vents (20).

IPC: F16F7/12

Abstract: A bracket for shock mounting of a vibrating or rotating device, such as a centrifuge, to a support surface. The bracket is formed from a plate of stiff material, such as steel, having an expandible deformable section along a lengthwise axis of the plate and a rotationally deformable leg section formed by undulations in the plate from one end to the other. At narrower plate regions, formed by the undulations, plate rotation is possible until the plate exceeds its elastic limit in the rotational direction and permanent deformation occurs. Such permanent deformation absorbs energy from accidents within the device in which energy would otherwise be transferred to a support surface and the surrounding environment.

Abstract: Means for holding the bottoms of petaloid shaped bottles in place in a wrap-around carrier. Side panel apertures include flaps connected to the side panel by fold lines which are inwardly curved at their upper portions. The lower portions of each pair of flaps extend toward each other so as to engage one or more support feet of the adjacent bottle and be forced out from the side panel thereby. The curved portion of the fold lines biases the flaps against the support feet, regardless of which portion of the feet engage the flaps, to assist in holding the bottles in place within the carrier. Fold lines extending from the flap edges to the flap fold lines and hook-shaped slits at the upper ends of the flaps allow the side flaps to flex lengthwise.

Abstract: Système de transfert d'énergie par induction à couplage lâche, destiné à transférer de l'énergie vers un plateau transporteur mobile ou vers un véhicule. Le système est pourvu de bobines collectrices enroulées sur un ou plusieurs concentrateurs de flux. Un ou plusieurs grands noyaux plats et horizontaux de ferrite (607, 608) servent à concentrer la composante horizontale du flux magnétique pour la faire passer d'un volume étendu à une ou plusieurs bobines secondaires ou collectrices (613). Chaque noyau résistant au choc comporte un groupe de plusieurs bandes individuelles de ferrite maintenues en contact intime. Un, habituellement deux ou éventuellement un plus grand nombre d'enroulements collecteurs résonnants sont enroulés autour de chaque noyau et chaque enroulement possède un interrupteur de mise en court-circuit (en 602, 603...) reliant l'un à l'autre les deux côtés de l'enroulement. A tout moment, une unité de commande (601) communique à un bus de sortie (605, 606) une tension de sortie régulée en provenance de l'enroulement collecteur le mieux situé sur l'un quelconque des noyaux, et simultanément maintient les autres enroulements à l'état court-circuité et donc inactif.

Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) for manufacturing a plastic closure (12) particularly facilitating orientation of the closure so that a manufacturing process, such as vertical scoring, can be effected at one of at least one predetermined portion of the closure. Such orientation is achieved by the provision of an orientation mandrel (46) on to which the closure is moved. The closure is initially rotated relative to the orientation mandrel, with a stop mechanism (52) of the mandrel (46) thereafter engaging the closure (12) and stopping such relative rotation. The stop mechanism (46) of the mandrel is configured in a predetermined orientation with respect to an associated component of the apparatus, which in the illustrated embodiment comprises a vertical scoring mechanism (42). By this manufacturing technique, a closure having a tamper-indicating pilfer band (20) can be scored and cut at a particular portion of the band, such as between container-engaging projections of the pilfer band.
