Abstract: Spacers (11) fitted to the stone sides are ground down to a height such that the outermost points (10) of the spacers lie at a level parallel to the plane defined by the opposing stone face (7). The spacers can come in the form of longways ribs on one stone face, or three point projections, and are fitted to one side of the stone only or to two opposing sides. The spacers demarcate the stones and should be ground down as described using an adhesively located stone bond to prevent sideways shifts. Otherwise the stone bond can be obtained by the use of film or netting made of paper, plastics or rubber, the stones being adhered to the nets etc using the netting etc adhesion surfaces to bridge the join between adjoining bond stones. The bond can also be located by an elastic base pressed into place by the stones which are thus held as desired, using naturally rotting bond net, films etc. The nets etc should be removed before the stone bond is established in destination site. The bonds are transported to point-of-use stacked on pallets.

Filed: 1997-11-24
Abstract: A novel clinch-type fastener member (20, 20a) is adapted
to be engaged through first and second workpieces (22, 24) to
form a mechanically locked joint (26, 26a) which is highly
resistant to vibrational loosening. The fastener member (20,
20a) has a first portion (28, 28a) and a second portion (30,
30a) which extends therefrom. The first portion (28, 28a) has
a protuberance (36, 36a), formed from a ring, thereon which
extends outwardly therefrom. The second portion (30, 30a) has
a projection (46, 46a), formed from a ring, spaced a
predetermined distance from the first portion (28, 28a) to
define a retaining groove (48, 48a). To engage the fastener
member (20, 20a) with the workpieces (22, 24), the fastener
member (20, 20a) is rotated into engagement therewith. The
protuberance (36, 36a) on the first portion (28, 28a) engages
a top surface (54) of the first workpiece (22) and rotational
and compressive forces are applied to the fastener member (20,
20a) thereby causing the protuberance (36, 36a) to deform the
first workpiece (22) material to cause the material to flow
into the retaining groove (48, 48a) provided on the fastener
member (20, 20a). The projection (46, 46a) on the second
portion (30, 30a) generally contacts the first workpiece (22)
such that when the deformed material flows into the retaining
groove (48, 48a), the deformed material is captured between
the projection (46, 46a) and the first portion (28, 28a).

Abstract: The probe has at its distal end a hollow cylindrical body(10) presenting at its distal side an opening (22) which receives a stimulation electrode (16) which is axially mounted in the opening. The body and the electrode are fixed by an adhesive at the walls of the body and electrode. The internal wall of the body (10) is shaped so that when the electrode is fitted, a peripheral chamber (30) is formed between the internal walls (50,52) of the body (10) and the electrode (16). This chamber is an adhesive expansion chamber which is essentially sealed to the exterior with the exception of an injection channel (32) and an escape channel (36). This allows the chamber to be progressively filled by penetration of the adhesive under pressure via the injection channel (32) and the escape of any excess adhesive via the channel (36) one the filling is complete.

Title: Kite
Inventor: LUDWIG FRANK
IPC: B64C31/06
Filed: 1997-01-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a kite (2) having a cover sheet (6) which is bordered on the periphery by an edge (18) supporting and accommodating the functional joints and members of the kite (2). Since all the functional joints and members of the kite (2) have been moved towards the peripheral edge (18), the surface of the cover sheet is free of any joints, openings or the like, i.e. the form of said surface can be artistic at will. In contrast to a painted cover sheet, high quality motifs which are aesthetically very attractive can also be permanently applied in a particularly rapid and economical manner e.g. by silk screen printing. Moving the attachment points (AN) of the flying lines to the outer ends of the frame (4) is particularly advantageous in that when the kite (2) is hung on the wall as a work of art, said flying lines do not hang down over the front of the cover sheet (6) with the applied motif and spoil the overall effect. Despite the move away from traditional and currently advocated structures, flying a kite designed according to the teaching of the present invention poses no problems.
