Title: Structural tie shear connector for concrete and insulation sandwich walls
Inventor: CLARK TIMOTHY L
IPC: E04C5/07
Filed: 1998-12-22
Abstract: A structural tie shear connector (20) utilized in a concrete and insulation sandwich wall panel (10) having first and second wythes (12, 14) and an insulation layer (16) interposed therebetween. The connector (20) includes first and second horizontal strands (22, 24) of thermally non-conductive material which are adapted to be encased by the respective wythes (12, 14). A transverse web (26) of thermally non-conductive material interconnects the first and second strands (22, 24) through the insulation layer (16). The web (26) includes strands formed into a lattice structure. At least one (30) of the strands (22, 24, 28, 30, 32) of the lattice extends at an angle with respect to one of the first and second strands (22, 24) so as to be in tension when a load is applied to the wall panel (10). The connector (20) resembles a bow tie. The method of making sandwich wall panels (10) disclosed herein includes pouring the first layer (14) of concrete into a form (50); laying a plurality of insulation strips (16A, 16B, 16C, etc.) adjacent each other to define at least one gap (52) therebetween; providing a bow tie shear connector (20) having a chairing loop portion (32) thereon; while the first layer (14) of concrete is still plastic, inserting the connector (20) through the gap (52) and into the first layer (14) of concrete such that the chairing loop portion (32) rests on the bottom of the form (50); and pouring a second layer (12) of wet concrete onto the insulation strips (16A, 16B, 16C, etc.) in the form (50). The chairing loop (32) positively locates the connector (20) with respect to the form (50), the concrete layers (12, 14) and the insulation layer (16) without being affixed to the insulation.

Title: An enclosure for painting, and a method of enforcing evaporation from a coating on a panel surface
Inventor: JEFFS CHRISTOPHER STEPHEN
IPC: B05C9/14
Filed: 1993-03-05
Abstract: A coating of paint on a panel (2) is dried by directing a narrow jet of air from a supply, preferably from an air mover (7), held at a predetermined distance from the panel towards one edge region of the panel, the jet being substantially narrower, when it reaches the panel edge region, than the length of the panel edge and the jet being inclined to the plane of the panel such that the air from the jet is entrained by the panel in a spreading laminar flow across the panel surface from that edge region to all the other edges thereof. This induces such laminar flow over substantially the whole surface and replaces vapour-laden air closely adjacent the surface with fresh air to accelerate drying. A painting booth (1) for cars is also disclosed, with several such air movers (7) which use part of the bulk air flow (3,4) in the booth. <IMAGE>
