Abstract: An apparatus having a wheel assembly (40) to apply a carrier stock (30) to two rows of containers (50), such as beverage bottles, is adapted to use a carrier stock (30) with each carrier having two container-engaging portions (62) and a handle portion (68) joined to the container-engaging portions at a longitudinally extending junction (70). A camming member (80) for reconfiguring the carrier stock (30) from a flattened condition into a reconfigured condition is positioned so that the carrier stock (30) is drawn past the camming member (80) before the carrier stock (30) is received by the wheel assembly (40) and is arranged to spread the container-engaging portions (62) of the carriers laterally so that the handle portions (68) of the carriers tend to be downwardly turned about the longitudinally extending junction (70) of the carrier stock (30). Two pairs of spaced plates (92,112) are provided for guiding the handle portion (68) of each carrier of the carrier stock (30) in its reconfigured condition, one such pair (32) having an adjustable floor (100) therebetween, and guiding the handle portion (68) so that the carrier stock remains in the reconfigured condition when drawn onto the wheel assembly (40) and the other pair (112) guiding the handle portion (68) so that the carrier stock (30) remains in the reconfigured condition when applied by the wheel assembly (40). A rotating wheel (122) has arms (128) for striking a frangible junction (72) between the handle portion (68) of adjacent carriers.

Abstract: A regulator circuit of the output voltage produced by a voltage boost circuit, able of generating a hysteretic control logic signal of said boost circuit, comprises a sensing branch comprising at least an inverting stage composed of an enhanced threshold load transistor of a first type of conductivity and a complementary natural transistor and a nonvolatile memory element functionally connected in series with said complementary inverting stage between the two supply nodes. A biasing branch, enabled by a start signal of said boost circuit, generates a first voltage, surely higher than the threshold voltage of said load transistor and a second voltage surely higher than the threshold voltage of said natural transistor. Means enabled by said start signal apply to a control terminal of said nonvolatile memory element a voltage representative of the regulated output voltage produced by said boost circuit. One or more inverters are coupled in cascade to said inverting stage to produce the required logic signal.

Abstract: Machine for playing competition and leisure game between two participants who can compete by actuation of a chip (1.3) which floats on a gameboard (1.1) by means of air blown from orifices provided in the board itself and which has underneath a high pressure chamber forming part of a closed circuit of air pressures. The chip is actuated by means of control systems (1.2.1-1.2.2), which are comprised of linear displacement bodies incorporating impulsers which act controllably as a function of the situation of push-buttons and presence sensors of the control unit. The goals are obtained by succeeding in making the chip go beyond the goal lines (1.4) which are defended by the control systems; once the chip has passed over the goal line, it goes into the corresponding goal area (1.5) wherein the chip is detected and the point is accounted for, whereafter the chip may be taken out back to the playboard.

Abstract: A rotary regenerative heat exchanger has a rotor containing a regenerative mass and rotating in a stationary casing. Movable sector plates (6, 8) are arranged at each end of the rotor at a short distance (S) therefrom in order to sealingly separate media ducts. Each sector plate (6, 8) is supported by a pair of support means (10) including sliding shoes (17), which slide on an end surface (11) on a flange (9) at the outer periphery of each rotor end. Portions of the rotor flange (9) might slant, causing misalignment of the sliding shoes (17). According to the invention this problem is overcome in that each sliding shoe (17) is movably mounted in the sector plate (6) allowing the sliding shoe (17) to tilt around a tilting point (0) so that the sliding shoe (17) adapts to the local deviations of the end surface (11) on the rotor flange (9) from the plane perpendicular to the rotor axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a shear resistant beam
in buildings which consists of upper and lower
longitudinal reinforcements (2), diagonal tension
reinforcements (4) and connecting plates (3). The
tension reinforcements (4) are knotted in the form of
intersection of the upper and lower longitudinal
reinforcements (2). Each intersecting point is fixed by
welding to form a "X"-type frame structure. Based on the
required thickness, the frames are welded to a whole
shear resistant beam by use of transverse straight
reinforcements (1). The connecting plates 3 are welded
at the ends of the shear resistant beam. The shear
resistant beam and the building structure are connected
through the connecting plates by bolts. The shear
resistant beam is simple in fabricating technology, its
rigidity, shear resistance can be increased by more than
two times, and the costs can be reduced and 10 per cent
of steel material can be saved.

Abstract: The action of a user who is carrying a movable
terminal (1) is analyzed in a host terminal (3).
The portable terminal (1) detects the time and position
where the portable (1) terminal is present at a predetermined
time interval and supplies the pieces of
information to the host terminal (3). The host
terminal (3) analyzes the time-serially detected
information to recognize the moving locus and the
moving speed of the user who is carrying the movable
terminal (3). The host terminal (3) has position
information of railway lines and roads as line patterns.
By matching processing between the moving locus and
the line patterns, the transport facility used by the
user for movement is estimated. This invention is to
provide a system capable of analyzing/recording a daily
action without performing any cumbersome operation.
