IPC: F02M31/125
Filed: 1993-07-21
Abstract: An electrical heating device (10) for diesel fuel is proposed, which is suitable for a system of modular construction and is easy and cost-effective to build. In a disc-shaped housing (11), three disc-shaped PTC elements (32 to 34), which are respectively held and guided by two quadrantal webs (37, 38), are arranged between two plane contact discs (35, 36) in a recess (21), the said webs gripping the elements on the circumference. The PTC elements (32 to 34) and both contact discs (35, 36) are pressed by springs (43), supported on a cover plate (37) on to segmental shoulders (39) fixed to the housing so that the diesel fuel washes thoroughly around the contact discs (35, 36) in the area of the heating elements (32 to 34) thereby ensuring a good transfer of heat. <IMAGE>

Title: Work station
Inventor: BAILLIE LESLIE RUSSELL LEE
IPC: A47B21/00
Filed: 1993-09-01
Abstract: A work station comprising a work surface (3) and a support for the work surface (2) has a mechanism (1) to enable the work surface (3) to be raised before being slid away from its normal position. The sliding of the work surface (3) is desirable to allow access to the area just below the work surface which may contain a cable management system. The raising of the work surface (3) before sliding allows the work surface (3) to be slid above the level of other objects, such as adjoining work surfaces, which could otherwise obstruct the sliding motion. While being raised and slid the work surface remains substantially horizontal, mitigating the need to clear it before moving it.

Abstract: A needle-syringe assembly, operable in a normal mode and convertible to a retraction mode, comprises an elongated, generally cylindrical barrel, a plunger slidably mounted in the barrel, and a needle holder carrying a hollow needle on the distal end thereof. The barrel forms a hollow nozzle located at the distal end of the barrel. The plunger forms a coaxial cavity extending therethrough, and the plunger includes a helical slot exposing a proximal portion of the coaxial cavity. The needle holder is slidably mounted in the coaxial cavity of the plunger. During the normal mode, a distal portion of the needle holder is engaged within the nozzle by a taper lock. To switch from the normal mode to the retraction mode, the taper lock is disengaged by rotary movement of the plunger relative to the barrel. While preventing rotary movement of the needle holder relative to the barrel, continued rotary movement of the plunger causes a lateral arm of the needle holder to ascend through the helical slot so that the needle holder retracts into the coaxial cavity of the plunger and the needle is concealed.

Abstract: A method and system for locating field breaks within input data is provided. In a preferred embodiment, a software facility locates field breaks within input data. The facility first receives input data made of a large number of rows of text. The facility then selects a group of the received rows of text to analyze. The facility identifies field breaks within the input data by analyzing the selected group of rows of text. The facility preferably analyzes the selected rows by counting the number of substantive characters in each column of the selected rows. The facility then uses the count to determine which columns have less than a field-break threshold of substantive characters. The facility locates one field break within each series of columns that have less than the field-break threshold of substantive characters.
