Abstract: For a thermal transfer dyesheet, a protective backcoat is provided by polymerising acrylic functional groups in a composition comprising: an organic resin comprising at least one polyfunctional material having a plurality of pendant or terminal acrylic groups per molecule available for cross-linking, at least 10% by weight of the polyfunctional material having 4-8 such acrylic groups per molecule; at least one linear organic polymer soluble or partially soluble in the resin, and comprising 1-40% by weight of the resin/polymer mixture; a slip agent selected from derivatives of long chain carboxylic or phosphoric acids, long alkyl chain esters of phosphoric acid, and long alkyl chain acrylates; an antistatic agent soluble in the resin, and a solid particulate antiblocking agent less than 5 µm in diameter. 
     Resins having predominently 5-7 acrylic functional groups per molecule, are preferred for enhancing protection against the thermal head, especially when used in a mixture also containing molecules having only 2-4 such acrylic groups per molecule. The effect of using such mixtures to cross link molecules of both high and low acrylic functionalities in the presence of the linear polymers, is to enable good thermal protection to be provided by a durable low friction coating, which also cleans the thermal head during printing.

Abstract: An improved plastic product that enables adjacent portions thereof to be easily folded into juxtaposed relationship. The product has at least one elongated hinge that extends between sides of the product in along the length and/or the width thereof. The hinge is formed by utilizing an angled or curved cutting tool to create a continuous slit which in a preferred configuration (when viewed in profile) is generally L-shaped so that it extends from one surface of the product to a first location that is within the products' body and then extends therein from the first location to a second location also within the thickness of the body. The slit opens onto the one surface and thereby forms a flexible bridge integral with those portions of the product adjacent thereto, the bridge permitting such adjacent portions to be flexibly folded into juxtaposed relationship.

Abstract: In an injection device for diesel engines, in particular in a pump nozzle (1, 41), in which the fuel is conveyed by a pilot pump (32) into an intake chamber (13, 51) which can be connected to the working chamber (9) of the injection pump piston (3) by way of at least one control hole (8) in the pump piston sleeve (7), the conveying end (i) of the injection pump piston 3 being determined by controlling the fuel through the control hole (8) or control holes into the intake chamber (13, 51), at least one displacement piston (17, 46) carried in a cylinder (21, 47) and driven to produce a reciprocating motion is provided, whose working chamber (23, 49) is always openly connected to the intake chamber (13), the displacement piston (17, 46) reducing its working chamber (23, 49) before the start of pumping (h) by the injection pump piston (3) and enlarging it on or after the completion of pumping (i) by the injection pump piston (3). In this way the fuel pressure in the intake chamber (13) is raised before the start of pumping (h) by the injection pump piston (3) and improves the filling of the working chamber (9) of the latter. When, on completion of pumping (i), the fuel emerges from the working chamber (9) of the injection pump piston (3) through the control holes (8) with great energy into the intake chamber (13, 51), the admission volume of the intake chamber is increased due to the increase in the working chamber (23, 49) of the displacement piston (17, 46), thereby reducing the force of the resulting pressure spray. <IMAGE>

The interfacing system includes a receptor cup ( 20 ) on the door lock actuator on the panel module and an orthogonally extending distal tip ( 34 ) of the door lock actuating rod ( 30 ) mating therewith. The receptor cup includes a cir­cular, conically shaped, tapered surface ( 21 ) which leads into a centrally located, locking opening ( 22 ), into which the distal tip of the locking rod becomes engaged, after the tapered surface through the lateral movement of the receptor cup has guided and caused it to become longitudinally engaged with the centrally located opening. The end portion of the locking rod includes a dog leg or inverted "U" section, which extends along side (rod section  31 ), over (section  32 ) and into (section  33 ) the receptor cup, when the door panel module is mated with and fastened to the door frame. The tapered surface of the receptor cup causes the locking rod to become automatically engaged and locked into the receptor cup in the assembly operation. The receptor cup can be carried on a pivoting link arm ( 12 ), while the distal leg portion of the locking rod can include a nub (50) with an enlarged head ( 54 ) for positively locking the rod to the receptor cup.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the embossing of textiles, in which mutually adjacent layers of a textile material and of a film material are pressed between two mutually opposite embossing surfaces under the effect of heat and are bonded to one another. Such known pressing processes produce embossings which are not dimensionally stable to an adequate extent during washing, ironing and drying of the textile material. The invention is aimed at an embossing process by which dimensionally more stable embossings can be produced. The process according to the invention is characterised in that a foamed film is used as the film material and the foamed film is compressed differently in different regions of its surface in order to form an embossed pattern. <IMAGE>
