Abstract: The present invention relates to a lamp (candle) (1) for a grave with a paraffin candle (2) and a cup (3) of polypropylene (PP) which burns in a pollution-free manner and receives said paraffin candle (2). In the cup interior there is formed, towards an open cup side, a holding device (7) which is connected, free of undercut and integrally, to the cup. The paraffin candle (2) is either inserted into the holding device (7) of the cup (3) or else cast in the cup. In either case, the paraffin candle (2) is anchored by the holding device (7), which prevents said paraffin candle (2) from falling out of the cup. By virtue of the use of PP, the lamp (1) for the grave, according to the invention, meets the required environmental protection demands and, by virtue of the special design of the cup (3), can be produced in a simple and cost-effective manner as an injection moulded part. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention relates to drilling fluid additives that suppress clay swelling within a subterranean well and to methods for controlling clay swelling during the drilling of a subterranean well. Aliphatic polyamines and aliphatic acids react to form polyamides and polyamino acids that are water soluble, that have molecular weights of less than about 1000, and that have low toxicity levels. The polyamides and polyamino acids are added to water base drilling fluids which are circulated throughout a well. The drilling fluid additives and the method of controlling clay swelling provide for improved control of the rheological properties of drilling fluids along with an increased environmental compatibility.

Abstract: A system is described in which a local task (415) running on a local computer (400) can use a remote task (430) running on a remote computer (405). The local task (415) firstly establishes a conversation between a local data transmission agent (410) in the local computer (400) and a remote data transmission agent (420) in the remote computer (405). This conversation is assigned a handle (XmitHandle). The local task (415) can then use this handle (XmitHandle) to call tasks (430) running on the remote computer (405). Data is passed between the local task (415) and the local data transmission agent (410) by the use of a shared memory buffer. Data is similarly passed between the remote task (430) and the remote data transmission agent (420) by the use of a shared memory buffer. The local (410) and remote (420) data transmission agents are connected together in a network which is preferably an SNA network.

IPC: A63B59/00
Filed: 1992-07-13
Abstract: It is known to provide a training golf club with a spring-loaded hinge in the shaft which 'breaks' if the club swing is skewed or jerky. First and second main hinge components (51, 50) lie side by side with a pivot shaft (24') passing through them and with offset shanks (14, 13) for attachment to the club half-shafts. Springs (32A) and balls (36') are located in bores in the first main component, the balls engaging in depressions (66) in a circular track on the second main component when the two shanks are aligned. The other ends of the springs (32A) bear, via balls (67), against an adjustment ring (62). On rotation of this ring, the balls (67) engage in one of a plurality of sets of depressions (68) of different depths in the ring, so adjusting the 'break' force of the hinge. Figs. 2-4, 6 and 7 show three further embodiments.

Abstract: On décrit un système de lecteur optique portatif destiné à lire des informations optiques dans une grande gamme de distances et comprenant un boîtier pourvu d'une ouverture recevant la lumière afin de l'aligner sur les informations optiques. Ce système comprend également un capteur de lecture convertissant une image à lumineuse réfléchie d'informations optiques en un signal d'informations, et des éléments optiques lumineux réfléchis pour former une image lumineuse réfléchie. Le système optique se règle de manière à focaliser une image lumineuse réfléchie d'informations optiques, situées dans une grande gamme de distances, sur le capteur de lecture. Un générateur de faisceau lumineux est associé au boîtier et dirigé par rapport aux éléments optiques et à l'ouverture recevant la lumière de telle façon qu'un faisceau lumineux ainsi généré vienne se heurter à un support d'informations, pourvu des informations optiques à lire, et qu'il soit réfléchi par l'ouverture recevant la lumière et par les éléments optiques vers le capteur de lecture. Puisque la position d'incidence du faisceau lumineux réfléchi sur le capteur de lecture est fonction de la distance du support d'informations par rapport au capteur d'images, le système optique peut se régler pour focaliser une image lumineuse réfléchie d'informations optiques associées au support d'informations, au moins en partie, selon la position d'incidence du faisceau lumineux réfléchi sur le capteur de lecture.
