Title: Cryogenic processing of used tires and the like
Inventor: ZUWALA STANLEY MICHAEL
IPC: B29B13/10
Filed: 1993-10-05
Abstract: Old tires are cut into strips (49), cryogenically cooled in liquid nitrogen (60) to make the rubber brittle, and the frozen strips fed through a pair of pinch rollers (50A). One of the rollers has a grooved and knurled surface. The rollers are pushed together by hydraulic rams; the pinch force is large enough to shatter the surface of the rubber, but small enough to leave the bulk of the strip intact, and the pinch force remains the same even if the thickness of the strip varies. The strip passes progressively through suc-cessive pairs of rollers, each time the surface of the strip is shattered and the fragments fall clear. With this treatment, the steel wires and textile cords in the tire separate or delaminate very easily, and without being crushed or damaged.   All the components of the material composite are recoved and separated for recycling. The rubber crumb thus separated is treated with a suitable chemical treatment for breaking down the molecular cross-links, mixed with plastic material and then repolymerised.

Title: Conformable brace
Inventor: ALLENBERG KURT
IPC: A61L15/12
Filed: 1993-09-10
Abstract: The present invention provides a removable brace or splint which is contoured to the shape of the body part which is to be restrained or protected. The brace (10) is formed from a flexible substrate (11) impregnated with a curable resin fitted with a flexi-ble, water-permeable cover (13) made of one component of a two component hook and loop fabric fastener system that is treated with a fluorochemical and a silicone. A properly sized and shaped brace made from the impregnated substrate is placed over a limb or joint and the resin is allowed to cure. After the resin has cured, the hook and loop fabric member is sufficiently adhered to the substrate in order to serve as a fastening surface to hold the orthopedic brace to the limb or joint and to allow multiple rem-oval and reattachment of the brace and repositioning of the bound hook and loop member.

Title: Method and apparatus for transmitting nrz data signals across an isolation barrier disposed in an interface between adjacent devices on a bus
Inventor: VAN BRUNT ROGER
IPC: G06F13/40
Filed: 1993-12-16
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for transmitting NRZ  data signals across an interface comprising an isolation barrier disposed between two devices interconnected via a bus. The apparatus comprises a signal differentiator for receiving an NRZ data signal and outputting a differentiated signal. A driver comprising a tri-state gate has as a first input the data signal and as a second input the differentiated signal for enabling the tri-state gate when the differentiated signal is high. A bias voltage is applied to an output of the tri-state gate to derive as output a transmission signal for transmission via the bus accross the interface between the two devices. In this way, the transmission signal output from the first device comprises an intermediate transmission signal corresponding to the bias voltage when the tri-state gate is disabled, a hight transmission signal when the tri-state gate is enabled and the first input to the tri-state gate is high, and a low transmission signal when the tri-state gate is enabled and the first input to the tri-state gate is low. A Schmidt trigger is provided as a receiver in the second device for receiving as input the transmission signal and outputting a reconstituted data signal corresponding to the synchronized data signal.

Title: Papermakers fabric having a system of macnine-direction yarns residing interior of the fabric surfaces
Inventor: JOSEF MICHAEL J
IPC: D03D11/00
Filed: 1995-10-13
Abstract: A papermaker's  fabric having a smooth surface and a prolonged life includes flat machine-direction yarns which define the upper and lower surfaces thereof.  The fabric has two layers of cross-machine direction yarns, each of which is interwoven with the  flat machine-direction yarns.    Other machine-direction yarns, of round cross section, weave with the cross-machine-direction yarns in the two layers to bind the two layers together.   The knuckles of these round machine-direction yarns are within the fabric with respect to the planes defined by the flat machine-direction yarns, and, as a consequence, are less susceptible to degradation by heat and abrasion.   The round machine-direction yarns may be used to seam the fabric.          A longer fabric life follows from the protection of the round machine-direction yarns by the flat.  The papermaker's fabric is particularly useful as a dryer fabric on the dryer section of a papermachine.

Title: Standard connector (sc) -to-duplex connector adapter assembly constructed with snap-together parts
Inventor: CARLISLE ARTHUR WALLACE
IPC: G02B6/40
Filed: 1996-03-11
Abstract: An adapter assembly of this invention includes a first part, a second part, a pair of sleeves and a pair of sleeve retainers. The first part defines two standard connectors (SC) housings with respective slots, and an alignment hole. The first part also includes first engagements preferably in the form of opposing hooked members extending from respective sides of the first part. In the second part, the sleeves are inserted in respective ferrule guides and held in place with respective sleeve retainers. A first end of the second part is adapted to receive a duplex connector which can be, for example, an Enterprise Systems Connection (ESCON) duplex connector. At a second end opposite the first end, ends of the ferrule guides protrude outwardly. On opposite sides of each ferrule guide, hooked members extend from the second end of the second part. Preferably, the ferrule guides and respective hooked members are attached to respective raised  platforms at the second end of the second part, which engage with an end of the SC housings defined in the first part to help maintain proper positioning of the first part relative to the second part. Between the two ferrule guides and their respective hooked members an alignment post extends from the second end of the second part. The alignment post is adapted to fit into the alignment hole defined by the first part. Preferably, the alignment post has a canted edge so that the first and second parts can only be assembled in the correct way. Also, the alignment post and the alignment hole are preferably correspondingly tapered to ease insertion of the alignment post into the alignment hole. At its sides, the second part includes second engagements preferably in the form of recesses defined near the second end of the second part. From the second end to each recess, a ramp is provided on each side of the second part. The first and second parts are snapped together by inserting the alignment post of the second part into the alignment hole of the first part and pushing the first and second parts together. As the ends of the hooked members slide on respective ramps, the hooked members are flexed outwardly away from each other. As the hooked members pass the ramps, the hooked members snap into engagement inrespective recesses of the second part, thus holding the first and second parts together.
