Abstract: A cutting device for cutting an objection such as a citrus fruit includes a cutting assembly and an outer casing about the cutting assembly. The casing is generally cylindrical having a central axis, and has open ends. The cutting blade assembly includes a first cutting blade extending radially outward from the central axis to a sidewall of the casing, the first cutting blade cutting the fruit in a manner so as to completely sever one portion thereof from another. The cutting assembly further includes a second cutting blade extending outwardly radially from the central axis toward the sidewall of the casing, but not reaching the sidewall, the second cutting blade cutting the object in a manner so as to partially sever one portion of the object from another. In use, the fruit is introduced into the cutting device at the first open end, is forced over the cutting assembly, and exits the cutting device at the second end. The invention also describes a scooping device for use on a fruit having a generally spherical shape with an outer peel and an inner edible portion. A bisected piece of fruit is subject to the action of a scooping device having a generally hemispherical shaped scooping member with a dome and a substantially circular edge which forms a cutting blade. The scooping device has a shaft extending outwardly from a point on the outer surface, so that rotation of the shaft causes rotation of the scooping member which can be used to remove the edible inner portion of the fruit. The invention also relates to a cutting device assembly comprising a plurality of cutting devices and actuated pushing blocks to successively force fruit through a series of cutting devices. Further, there is provided a scooping device assembly wherein a plurality of scooping members, and bases for holding fruit are provided for mass removal of the inner edible portion of the fruit.

Date Jan. 23, 1992.A non-pneumatic supporting wheel includes a central part and a wheel-rim which is supported by the central part. The wheel-rim has an outer wheel-rim part which is intended to roll against an underlying surface, and an inner wheel-rim part which is located radially inwards of the outer wheel-rim part. At least the inner of the two wheel-rim parts is constructed from a plurality of curved, elongated elements which consist of a resilient material and which are spaced in the circumferential direction of the wheel. When seen in a section taken diametrically through the wheel, each of these elements presents parts which are curved in opposite directions. For the purpose of taking-up forces which act substantially radially between the wheel center and the region of the wheel in contact with the underlying surface when the wheel is subjected to load, the elements are elastically yielding in the radial direction of the wheel during increased bending of the elements. The circumferentially spaced and bendable elements are constructed so that both the sum of the bending of each small longitudinal section of the elements when the elements are subjected to load in the radial direction of the wheel and the sum of the product of the bending of each small section and the distance of this section from the underlying surface when the wheel is subjected to normal load is at least essentially zero.

Abstract: An injection molding thermal gated nozzle having a nose portion which extends forwardly to the cavity. The nozzle has a melt channel which extends through the nose portion to form the gate. An integral electric heating element has a forward portion with a generally rectangular cross section and a number of adjacent coils which form an inwardly tapered inner surface. Part of the inner surface of the forward portion of the heating element forms an inwardly tapered portion of the melt channel adjacent the gate. This direct contact of the heating element with the melt reduces considerably the cycle time of the thermal gate. The forward portion of the heating element is shaped by compressing it between tapered dies. It is then mounted between forward and rearward portions of the nozzle, and the assembly is integrally brazed together in a vacuum furnace. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of measuring lung function in a subject includes connecting a pneumotach in series with the subject's airway and taking pressure readings upstream and downstream of a fixed resistance element (30) in the pneumotach. Second pressure readings are taken with a second resistance element (46) in place, and the sets of readings are processed to calculate characteristic flow curves for the subject's airway. First and second time constants ( tau ) are calculated from the flow curves, and are used to calculate values of lung compliance (Clt) and airway resistance (Raw). The invention extends to a pneumotach device with a fixed first resistance element and a removable second resistance element. The invention also extends to apparatus for monitoring lung function including the pneumotach device, together with a pair of pressure sensors (50) and a processor circuit (52, 54, 56, 58, 60) for carrying out the necessary calculations of the time constants, and the lung compliance and airway resistance values.
