Abstract: An apparatus and method for stacking a plurality of flat articles on edge, comprising a discharge magazine for sequentially receiving and stacking the flat articles in a stack, the discharge magazine including moveable discharge support belts adapted to support the stack of articles on edge and a moveable compression plate to maintain the articles on edge. A drive element is provided for controllably moving the discharge support belts. A stacker section adjacent the discharge magazine transports articles sequentially into the stack, the stacker section comprising stacker belts extending around a plurality of rollers. The last of the articles in the stack abuts against the stacker belts adjacent one of the rollers to apply a compressive force developed by the stack of flat articles and the compression plate to the one roller. The one roller is movably mounted to the apparatus for movement responsive to increases and decreases in the compressive force. A deflection plate is positioned proximate the one moveable roller to deflect leaning sides of the articles from inadvertently applying pressure to the moveable roller. An actuator element is operatively connected to and responsive to movement of the one roller and connected to the drive element for activating the drive belts and the discharge support belts to transport the stack of flat articles away from the stacker section when the compressive force reaches a predetermined maximum value.

Abstract: Rotation of a body about an axis (82) is achieved by moving an arm (81) extending from the body. The mechanism for moving the arm includes a hydraulic ram having a ram cylinder (84), which is connected to the arm (81), and a ram rod (86). The end of the ram rod (86) which is remote from the ram cylinder is engageable with one of series of anchor members (85a, 85b, 85c) mounted on a platform, in a circle or on an arc of a circle. The end of the ram rod (86), when disengaged from an anchor member, is guided to an adjacent anchor member along a circular, or arcuate, guiding means (89). This mechanism is suitable for the rotation of a support frame (15) of a large dish (12) of a solar collector antenna about a vertical axis (20), as part of the arrangement whereby the dish support frame (15) is moved - for example, to enable the dish to track the sun. <IMAGE>

In the housing there are at least one and preferably two or more adjoining and individually displaceable regulating elements having cooperating wall portions with flow passages. At an upstream side radial flow passages cause the fluid to converge into a central chamber. In the cooperating wall portions, a number of flow channels can be aligned or misaligned with one another and/or the inlet and outlet openings to regulate and control flow by movement of the regulating elements. The regulating elements also define a full cross-section opening at 90 DEG  to the flow passages, which can clear the passage between the inlet and outlet for passage of a pipe pig.

Abstract: A pair of plastic tubes are welded together by mounting each tube in the clamp jaws of a holder. A heated wafer is movably mounted in the gap between the tubes to cause the ends of the tubes to melt. The melted ends of the opposed tubes are pressed into contact with each other to form a welded connection. Each side of the wafer has a scoop to remove excess plastic material at the ends of the tubes to control the size of the weld connection. A pair of structural cam elements is used to create a precise spacing between each set of clamp jaws for guiding the wafer to control the plastic volume of the weld. The resulting weld is independent of rheology of plastic. The same device could also be used for disconnect purposes by cutting through a single tube and forming two tube sections. Unique double jaw construction is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus for piercing the cap of a container. The apparatus includes a blade support arm slidably attached to one or more vertical posts, a blade attached vertically below the blade support arm, and a cap retainer arm slidably attached to the vertical post such that the cap retainer arm is capable of travel along the posts between an upper position wherein the cap contacting surface is located above the elevation of the container cap and a lower position wherein the cap contacting surface is located at the elevation of the container cap. The cap retainer arm has an opening through which the blade can pass. A biasing member biases the cap retainer arm towards its lower position. The cap retainer arm is positioned below the blade but above the blade support arm contact surface. Thus, when the blade support arm slides upwardly, the blade support arm contacts the cap retainer arm and pushes the cap retainer arm upwardly from its lower position to its upper position.
