Patent CA-2054362-C (CA)
Title: Belt-type continuously variable transmission
Inventor: OHZONO KOUHEI
IPC: F16H57/035
Filed: 1991-10-28
Granted: 1995-07-18
Abstract: A belt-type continuously variable transmission in which a drive pulley mounted on an input shaft and a driven pulley mounted on an output shaft are connected by an  endless  belt,  a  forward-  and  backward-movement switchover mechanism for transmitting a driving force from an engine to the drive pulley is disposed adjacent the stationary pulley half of the drive pulley, and a starting clutch for transmitting the rotation of the output shaft to driving wheels is disposed adjacent stationary pulley half of the driven pulley.  This ensures that dead spaces created in a section opposed to both the movable pulley halves which move axially can be utilized as spaces for disposition  of  the  forward- and  backward-movement switchover mechanism and the starting clutch,  thereby enabling the forward- and backward-movement switchover mechanism and the starting clutch to be disposed in a compact layout.

Granted: 1997-08-19
Abstract: This brake, suitable for being connected to a brake cable (6), comprises a toothed sector (1) fitted with a dentation (2) which sector is intended to be fixed to the floor of the vehicle, a pawl (9) provided with locking teeth (13) interacting with the dentation (2) of the sector and a hollow manual gripping lever (5) equipped with an internal push-button rod (7), one end (7a) of which interacts with the pawl in order to keep it in the locking position of the brake due to the thrust of a return spring (14); the pawl (9), articulated about a pin (11),  interacts with a member  (17), which may be an additional tooth (17)  forming part of an over-moulded covering  (16)  on  the metal  body  (12)  of  the pawl, positioned  between  the  teeth  (13)  of  the  locking mechanism and the pin (11), or an intermediate member which is not integrally connected to the pawl;  this member  is  dimensioned  in  order  to  slide  over  the dentation (2) while the lever (5)  is being operated, thereby keeping the teeth (13) of the locking mechanism away from the dentation (2). This arrangement eliminates the noise from operating the pawl in previous brakes.

Title: Apparatus for manipulating a workpiece in a machining operation
Inventor: JONES JOEL W
IPC: B23Q16/02
Filed: 1993-05-13
Granted: 1996-01-02
Abstract: An apparatus for rotating a workpiece in a machining operation, the workpiece having internal passageways, includes a stationary support, a carriagemounted for reciprocation with respect to the support and a cylindrical shaft carried by the carriage and capable of rotary motion about its axis. A pinion gear is fixed to one end of the shaft and meshes with a rack which reciprocates in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the shaft axis. A pin carrier block is fixed to the other end of the shaft, and supports a plurality of pin members adapted to register with the passageways of the workpiece when the carriage moves from one extremity of its travel to the other. Once the pin members are engaged, the rack moves along its path in order to rotate the shaft, and thus the workpiece, through 90° to prepare it for further machining operations.

Title: Concealable surgical light
Inventor: CRISPIN GEORGE E
IPC: F21V21/04
Filed: 1991-10-17
Granted: 1994-09-20
Abstract: A concealable surgical light device, such as for a birthing room, has a fixed housing (15) and a single door (10) for supporting the light (5) on one side and decorative ceiling panels on the other side. The door (10) is rotatably attached to the fixed housing (15). In a closed position of the door (10), the light (5) is concealed within the ceiling structure (16), and the decorative panels are flush with the ceiling (16). In an open position, the light (5) is deployable as it faces into the room. Rotation of the door (10) between the two positions is powered by a motor (64) acting through an actuator (58) and a linkage system. The linkage system includes two first arms (70, 72) rotatably connected to an actuator rod (58a) and fixed to a pivot shaft (78) such that extension and retraction of the rod (58a) pivot the shaft (78). Two second arms (74, 76) are fixed to opposite ends of the shaft (78) and pivotally connect to two third arms (80, 82), in turn connected to the door (10). Pivoting the shaft (78) rotates the second arms (74, 76) which, in turn, move the third arms (80, 82) up or down to close or open the door (10).

Abstract: In a method for decomposition of hydrocarbons for the production of hydrogen and carbon black, the feed stock is passed through a plasma torch, which causes a pyrolytic decomposition of the feed stock. The feed stock is transported through the plasma torch (A) in a cooled lead-in tube (1) and undergoes a first heating in an area in the immediate vicinity of the plasma flame. In the area immediately below the plasma flame a mixing of the hydrocarbon material and the plasma gas occurs, the temperature being increased to decomposition temperature for the raw material. In this area free hydrogen and dehydrogenated carbon material are produced in the form of drops of liquid. The material thereby produced is passed on to one or more subsequent stages where the final and complete decomposition of the hydrocarbons to carbon black and hydrogen occurs. In this area further raw material may be added which causes quenching and reacts with the already produced carbon black. An increase is thereby caused in particle size, density and amount produced without further energy supply, whereafter the products produced are expelled and separated and hot gas may be transported in a return pipe to the torch, in order to further increase the energy yield.
