Title: Admixture dispensing and concrete monitoring system
Inventor: HINES KELLY
IPC: B28C7/12
Filed: 1997-07-28
Abstract: The system (10) which determines the correct amount of an admixture, such as a stabilizer, to dispense in a load of new / unused concrete in a concrete mixing truck (12) comprises an admixture dispensing unit linked to a computer system (30). The computer system includes a processor (40) which controls and monitors the operation of the dispensing unit which includes an admixture piping system (42) and a water piping system (60).

Patent GB-2320196-A (GB)
Title: Midstream Urine Collector
Inventor: CAWOOD CHARLES DAVID
IPC: G01N33/48
Filed: 1997-10-30
Abstract: A midstream urine collection device 10 essentially comprises a funnel-shaped body 11 defining a urine flow passage 14, with a cup member 20 and cover 26, smaller than the said passage, mounted therein. The generally dome-shaped cover, formed of a non-contaminating, water-soluble polymer and extending over the cup member on arched support struts 27, disintegrates within 2-15 seconds on exposure to urine so that the midstream urine flow can be effectively captured. The main aspect of the invention, however, lies in providing a urine deflecting means 50 for shielding at least an upper portion 26a of the cover from the direct impingement of urine flow. In one embodiment a disc-shaped, imperforate shield 51 is supported by an integral support arm 52 connected to the cover fixing means 29. In another the shield is provided with openings. A further aspect to the invention lies in the fact that the apparatus is made from a water soluble polymer provided with a thin coating of a water insoluble polymer and is therefore flushable after use.

Title: Mechanical valve tappet set
Inventor: AMMON REINHARD
IPC: F01L1/14
Filed: 1998-05-13
Abstract: A set of mechanical valve tappets for timing the valves of an internal combustion engine, each tappet comprises a cup-shaped housing (1), consisting of a hollow cylindrical wall (2) closed at one end by a bottom (3) which is exteriorly contacted by a control cam (6), while on the inner surface of the bottom (3), there is arranged an elevation (4) which cooperates with the end of a valve stem of a gas exchange valve (5).

Title: An exerciser with combined stepping and twisting functions
Inventor: LAI SHU-CHIUNG
IPC: A63B23/04
Filed: 1999-03-25
Abstract: An exercise device allows the user to combine upper and lower body exercises by stepping and twisting simultaneously. It comprises a base frame 21 with a front end portion and a pedal 24 attached at either side, cylinders 25 attached to the underside of each pedal 24 at one end and to part of the base 22 at the other end, and an elongate, upright handle 33 attached at the front end portion of the device. A rotating bracket 30 receives the upright handle 33 and is attached to the pedals 24 via linkage mechanisms (see figure 3). Links (371, fig 3) are attached at one end to the rotating bracket 30 and at the other to a connection plate (38, fig.3), and further links (372, fig. 3) are attached at one end to the connection plate (38, fig. 3) and at the other to the pedals 24. This arrangement means that when one pedal is pressed down link (372, fig.3) pulls the connection plate into a skewed position, thus turning the rotating bracket 30 and the handle 33. When the other pedal is pressed the handle rotates in the other direction. The handle 30 may be folded down to make the device more compact (see figure 6).

Abstract: 11,807. Russell, J. C. May 16. Tempering.-Rails, bars, long shear knives, and like articles requiring hard and soft parts are treated by moving the hot finished article longitudinally so that a portion of the article passes through a bath of oil and then through a bath of water, the treated portion being sometimes passed through a final bath of water which extends also into contact with another portion of the article; or the article, after one portion has been passed through a bath of oil, is passed through superposed baths of water and oil, of which the oil comes into contact with another portion of the article, the treated portions of which may be passed through a final bath of water. In the apparatus shown, troughs 1, 2, 3 having inclined bottoms communicating with drainage chambers are provided with rollers 9, 10 and guide-plates 14 for the passage of the rail &c. Each trough has at each end an overflow chamber 18 and a weighted pivoted trap 20 which is depressed by the passage of the rail and prevents the escape of liquid.

In the trough 2, the head is immersed in water while the web is in oil; and in the trough 3, the head and web pass through water. Water is drained from the troughs, and water and oil are supplied thereto at suitable rates to maintain the levels constant and to regulate the temperature. The troughs may be wide enough to take two or more rails at once. Heating furnaces may be placed between the troughs and in front of the first trough.
