Title: Tamper indicating closure having retaining hoop with relief windows
Inventor: HAYES THOMAS H
IPC: B29C53/02
Filed: 1990-08-22
Abstract: A closure for a container has a tamper indicating band with a band retainer in the form of an apertured flap or hoop which is hinged to the lower edge of the band. A series of windows open through the retainer, extending toward but not to its distal edge. As the retainer is turned inside out from its as-molded position to its use position, its distal and/or hinged edges deform to relieve compression and permit the retainer to be inverted by direct downward pushing force. As a result of the deformation, the retainer in its use position may, depending on the number and size of windows, have an advantageous polygonal peripheral shape rather than a circular shape.

Title: A bag or pouch for containing a fluid
Inventor: HYLDGAARD JOERGEN
IPC: B65D75/58
Filed: 1994-03-29
Abstract: A bag or pouch made from a pair of flat walls formed by flexible sheet material, such as plastic films. The walls are sealingly interconnected so as to define between the opposite walls a storage chamber (20) for containing a fluid. A fluid discharge passage (17) communicates with the storage chamber (20) at a junction position (21) and is arranged outside the storage chamber, and the bag or pouch is such that the opposite wall parts defining the discharge passage are moved into mutual sealing contact at at least one sealing position when fluid has been filled into the storage chamber. In order to improve the self-sealing effect of the bag, the storage chamber (20) extends beyond the junction position (21) in a direction towards an outlet end (22) of the discharge passage (17). This means that the angle  alpha  is an acute angle. Alternatively or additionally, at least one restriction may be defined in the discharge passage (17), preferably at or closely adjacent to the sealing position.

Title: Glue applicator unit
Inventor: WURTH HEIKO
IPC: B05C5/02
Filed: 1994-07-22
Abstract: An applicator unit (100) is disclosed for applying glue or another fluid medium on a substrate (36). The housing (10) is subdivided into a glue guiding part (2) and into a driving part (1) that receives a piezoelectric element (20). A valve member (30) arranged in the glue guiding part (2) may be moved in the direction of an axis (11) and forms a glue discharge valve (40). The glue discharge valve (40) is normally closed by a stack of disk springs (25) that stresses the valve member (30). When a voltage, resulting in an expansion, is applied to the piezoelectric element (20), said element moves the valve member (30) against the force of the stack of disk springs (25) and opens the glue discharge valve (40). In order to avoid heat transmission from the hot glue guiding part (2) to the driving part that contains the piezoelectric element (20), the parts (1, 2) are mutually separated by a heat insulating zone (3).

Title: Transgenic animals, cells and cell lines therefrom, and their use
Inventor: NOBLE MARK DAVID
IPC: A01K67/027
Filed: 1991-02-20
Abstract: The provision of cell lines from virtually any cell type of the animal body is greatly facilitated by transgenic non-human eukaryotic animals of the invention in which at least some cells have (i) a differentiation inhibiting sequence chromosomally incorporated under the control of a non-constitutive promotor and/or (ii) a differentiation inhibiting sequence which is itself conditionally active. Said genes are chromosomally incorporated under the control of a promotor such that expression of said sequence is normally held below an effective level, thus allowing normal cell development. However, cells taken from said animal may be prevented from completing differentiation to a non-dividing state in tissue culture by activating expression of said sequence.

Title: Device for preventing diesel fuel re-priming for fuel burning apparatus
Inventor: MULLER WILHELM
IPC: F02M37/00
Filed: 2000-10-02
Abstract: A control device 10 for isolating a fuel line 4 from its source 1 and its discharge 7 and preventing line 4 from getting vapor locked when its source 1 runs low or empty. The device combines a sensing device 2 at the fuel line intake and an activation device 3 for disabling fuel flow to a combustion engine at the other end. When fuel runs low or empty, the activation device 3 automatically isolates the fuel line from the reservoir 1 and the engine 7 to prevent the fuel line from further drawing down. Under this protection and upon refueling the reservoir, the fuel line has enough fuel to start back up without first having to re-prime the fuel line.

IPC: F16J15/34
Filed: 1991-07-16
Abstract: A seal system is disclosed for sealing a housing (14) and rotatable shaft (34) against leakage of high vapor-pressure liquids such as natural gas. The method of sealing contemplates phase change of the liquefied hydrocarbon fluid across a first module (22). The gas so formed is contained by a second seal module (24) which operates as a dry running gas seal. The seal system has plural, axially spaced spiral-groove seal modules (22,24) mounted between the shaft (34) and housing (14). Each seal module has a primary ring (26A,26B) affixed to the housing (14) and a mating ring (30A,30B) affixed for rotation with the shaft (34) and the modules (22,24) define an intermediate cavity (25). The rings have opposed, radially extending faces (28A,28B) (32A,32B), one of which has a plurality of downstream pumping spiral grooves (80) extending from one circumference. The grooves (80) of the grooved ring of the upstream module (22) have a pattern which upon shaft rotation creates shear heating of the liquefied hydrocarbon fluid. The pattern has a land/groove surface area ratio greater than one and preferably a ratio of approximately three. The dam portion (82) relative to groove portion surface area is also preferably greater than one and the preferred dam/groove ratio is approximately three. <IMAGE>

Title: Integrated control for electric lift trucks
Inventor: ADSETT ROBERT T
IPC: B66F9/20
Filed: 1998-07-17
Abstract: A controller system for an electric lift truck that controls a traction motor (86) and a hydraulic pump motor (12) is disclosed. The speed of rotation of both motors (86, 12) is controlled by a pulse width modulated current supplied from a battery source (84) by the controller (80) in direct response to a demand communicated to the controller (80) through an interface (50) manipulated by an operator. A pump (13) driven by the pump motor (12) supplies pressurised hydraulic fluid to a lift mechanism (90) and a power assisted steering unit (17). A priority valve (14) ensures that the pressurized hydraulic fluid first satisfies the power assisted steering unit (17) before being used for other hydraulic functions. A joystick (52) with function switches (56, 58, 60 and 62) is provided so that the operator steers with one hand while controlling truck propulsion and all functions of the lift mechanism (90) with the other hand. The combination of direct control of the pump motor (12) speed and on-demand pressure switch (16) enables a fully proportional control of the hydraulic system. The system provides a compact structure with minimal cabling and ensures that the hydraulic system operates with energy efficiency and minimal wear.
