Abstract: © A conventional base plate has openings (4) in ribs (1) between which the rail stands, the openings (4) being wider at the bottom than at the top. An anchoring device (12) for a rail clip (7-9) has a portion (13) formed with a passageway (11), into which is driven a straight leg (7) of the clip, the leg pressing upwardly on the roof of the passageway (11). A portion (14) projects in one direction from one side of the portion (13) and a part (9) of the clip bears downwardly on it. A portion (15X) projects in the opposite direction from the opposite side of the portion 13 and it is part of a securing region (15) which is wider at the bottom than at the top and lies in the opening (4) and is passed upwardly against surfaces (5) of the base plate defining the opening (4). The part (8) of the clip bears downwardly on the upper surface of the rail flange (20B).

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a system for processing patterns such as oriented patterns, to derive constituents which are more useful than the original patterns. For example, an oriented pattern such as a seismic section can be decomposed into a flow field, which is an estimate of a moving accretion boundary which formed the subsurface layers, and a residual pattern, which is an estimate of layer properties, such as acoustic velocity. Similarly, an oriented pattern such as a chart displaying changes in borehole resistivity with depth along its vertical direction and changes in resistivity with angle around the borehole along its horizontal dimension, can be decomposed into a flow field and a residual pattern, where the flow field is an estimate of a moving accretion boundary and the residual pattern is an estimate of resistivity changes with depth and angle independent of the accretion boundary. The flowfield can be mapped onto regular, e.g. orthogonal or polar, coordinates to thereby straighten the original pattern into a deformed or residual pattern which is more useful with respect to visualizing orfurther processing a parameter of interest than the original pattern.

Abstract: Folding tables on passenger seats are usually hinged to the underframe of the passenger seat with two lateral struts. As a result, when the table plate is folded down not only is the leg-room of the passengers restricted but also there is a very large risk of injury in the event of an accident. In order to remedy this, it is proposed to attach the table plate to the underframe of the passenger seat solely by means of a single central strut. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An oil cooler (1) is removably mounted on the side of an engine block (13) with a tubular coolant flow coupling (19) received as a push-fit in an aperture (18) in the block so that the coolant flow connection is simply made as the oil cooler is fastened to the side of the block. The coupling (19) may be a push-fit in respective axially aligned apertures (18, 20) in the block and the cooler. The flow coupling may be an inlet coupling for coolant from the block. The end of the coupling that cooperates with the block has an extension (24) that projects into a coolant flow passage (17) in the block and is shaped to form an inlet opening that is directed laterally of the axis of the coupling and upstream of the coolant flow in said passage. The extension (24) collects coolant from said passage and produces a pressure drop in said passage. A coolant return-flow coupling (28) is provided between the oil cooler (1) and the block (13) and opens into said passage (17) downstream of said inlet coupling (19) so that said pressure drop assists the flow of coolant through the cooler.
