Abstract: A conveyorized oven that provides uniform cooking with control of the heater and/or the conveyor belt speed. The oven includes a controller that monitors power consumption of the heater and uses the power consumption to control the heater and/or the speed of the motor that drives the conveyor belt. The power consumption is monitored by counting the on time cycles of a switch that connects and disconnects the heater to a power main. Changes in the power consumption due to changes in loading are used by the controller to reduce recovery times of the oven temperature to a set temperature by controlling the heater and/or the motor. By using a stepper motor, there is no need for a gear box.

Abstract: A motor-drive system for retractable covering having a headrail with a horizontally disposed roller supporting a top edge of a flexible fabric material includes an electric motor mounted within a housing and interconnected to the roller to selectively rotate the roller in opposite directions while minimizing noise created from vibrations within the system. This system includes motor mounts within the housing which separate and absorb vibrations of the motor within the housing and a drive disk of a moderately soft material, which is firm enough to transfer torque from the motor to the roller while being soft enough to absorb vibrations which would otherwise be transmitted from the motor to the roller.  An interconnect mounting the drive disk to the drive shaft of the motor is also made of a third relatively soft material, which is harder than the drive disk to more ably transmit torque but soft enough so as not to unduly transmit noise.

Abstract: Apparatus or continuous extrusion of aluminium sheathing around a core cable includes a rotatable wheel having two identical circumferential grooves bounded by arcuate tooling discharging through radial exit apertures to an extrusion chamber positioned around a portal mandrel. The core cable is supplied through the mandrel and the aluminium sheathing is extruded as a loose fit from the extrusion chamber. The sheathing is discharged to a roller corrugator including a rotating frame mounted on a carriage provided with a roller arranged to form a continuous helical indentation in the sheathing. Actuating cylinders positioned on the carriage provide a constant, low magnitude, tension on the portion of the sheath intermediate the extrusion chamber and the roller corrugator and limit forces tending to distort the uncooled sheathing. The speed of the rotating frame is regulated in accordance with the linear speed of the cable to avoid unacceptable stretching of the sheath.

Abstract: Group C rotaviruses are a cause of acute gastroenteritis in children and adults that is distinct from group A RV.  However, human group C rotaviruses cannot be grown in culture, resulting in a lack of tools for detection and treatment of GrpC  RV disease. Consequently, the burden of GpC RV disease has not been clearly established. Isolated recombinant human rotavirus group C virus-like particles are provided according to embodiments of the present invention along with methods of their produc-tion and use in, inter alia, detection of Grp C RV infection, diagnostic assays and immunogenic compositions.

Abstract: The invention is a method to predict surface-wave waveforms (306) and subtract them (307) from seismic data.  Prediction is done by estimating a set of surface-consistent components (transfer functions in the frequency domain or impulse responses in time domain) that best represent changes in the waveforms for propagation along the surface from source to receiver (303). The prediction uses a mathematical expression, or model, of the earth's filtering effects, both amplitude and phase, as a function of frequency. The desired surface-consistent components are model parameters, and model optimization is used to solve for the surface-consistent components. The surface-consistent components may include filter transfer functions for each source location, each receiver location, and for propagation (302) through each region (301) of the surface that exhibits lateral variation.

Abstract: A touch bar exit device comprises a retractor element disposed in the housing for substantially rectilinear movement. The retractor element connects the touch bar and the latch bolt such that the retractor element and the latch bolt are moved toward the retracted position in response to movement of the touch bar. An electrically energizable locking mechanism in the exit device includes a reciprocating plunger moving transverse to the retractor element. When energized, the locking mechanism is operative to move the plunger to the projected locking position to prevent retraction of the latch bolt. A time delay circuit is connected to the locking mechanism. A switch actuated in response to movement of the touch bar is connected to the time delay circuit for starting a predetermined time interval for temporarily delaying deenergization of the locking mechanism. When the time delay circuit interrupts power to the locking mechanism, the plunger moves allowing the latch bolt to move to the retracted position.

Abstract: Nouvelle cathode irrégulière graphitisée combinée comprenant des blocs centraux et des blocs butoirs pour cathode graphitisée. Les blocs butoirs pour cathode graphitisée sont conçus à partir de matériaux brutes, notamment du coke de pétrole calciné, de l'anthracite calciné de manière électrique, du brai de houille, un additif d'alliage TiB2 et un additif SiC. Dans la présente invention, les blocs butoirs pour cathode graphitisée sont incrustés à la jonction de deux blocs centraux de manière à créer un pont au-dessus de la cathode. La distance d'électrode d'électrolyse de l'aluminium est donc raccourcie, la tension est réduite d'environ 0,35 volt à 0,5 volt. Au moins 1000 KWh de l'énergie par tonne d'aluminium peuvent être économisés pour parvenir à l'effet désiré d'économie d'énergie et de réduction de la consommation. Les creux sont évités au centre des blocs centraux ce qui diminue l'épaisseur effective des blocs centraux et qui influence la durée de vie. Le renforcement de la structure locale à la jonction des blocs centraux prolonge la durée de vie de la cellule électrolytique.
