Abstract: A dispensing apparatus for dispensing particulate or granular material comprises two upper dispensers (10,12) and two lower dispensers (14,16) located beneath the upper dispensers. Inclined trays (36) are positioned beneath the lower dispensers, and excess product falling from the lower dispensers onto the trays is directed by means of the trays and a further guide (41) into one of two receiving containers (48a). The lids (58) of the lower dispensers form an inclined surface, and excess product falling from the upper dispensers (10,12) is directed by the lids, by elongate channel-section guides (25) and by the aforementioned guide (41) into lower receiving containers (48b). Any excess material dispensed from any of the dispensers is thus directed and guided to a respective container, which is more hygienic and produces a better presentation of the products to be dispensed. More importantly, the excess product collected may be re-used, thus keeping shrinkage and wastage to a minimum.

Abstract: A tire chain comprises an elongated inner side member adapted to form a circle of predetermined circumference about a rim of a vehicle wheel at the inner side thereof, the inner side member having co-operable fastener elements at opposite ends thereof which are joined to complete the circle. Cross members form a zig-zag pattern with opposite ends of the pattern adjacent to the fastener elements, respectively. The pattern includes a plurality of spaced inner vertices adjacent to the inner side member and a plurality of spaced outer vertices remote from the inner side member and adapted to be positioned adjacent to the rim at the outer side thereof, with the cross members extending back and forth across the tread of a tire mounted on the rim. The inner vertices are attached to the inner side member at predetermined positions by connectors intermediate the vertices and the inner side member. The outer vertices are provided with connectors to which a tensioning device is coupled for drawing the outer vertices toward the rotational axis of the wheel. While the spacing of the inner vertices is essentially fixed, the spacing of adjacent outer vertices is adjustable.

Abstract: Novel hybrid thermostable (1,3-1,4)- beta -glucanases, their use in food manufacturing and feed manufacturing, DNA fragments encoding such glucanases, organisms expressing the DNA fragments and a method for producing the thermostable (1,3-1,4)- beta -glucanases. Hybrid fusion genes encoding Bacillus (1,3-1,4)- beta -glucanases were constructed, the gene products of which are more thermostable than any (1,3-1,4)- beta -glucanase known until now. The hybrid genes were constructed by reciprocal exchanges of the amino-terminal and carboxy-terminal parts of the  beta -glucanase encoding genes from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacillus macerans. The resulting thermostable (1,3-1,4)- beta -glucanases retain a significant enzymatic activity at temperatures exceeding 65 DEG C and at pH values below 5.0.

Abstract: An implantable valve accumulator pump for the delivery of medication is disclosed. The implantable pump comprises a drug reservoir maintained at constant pressure vapor. The medication metering assembly comprises a fixed volume accumulator positioned between a pair of valves. The valves alternately open and close to admit medication from the reservoir into the accumulator and to dispense a precise volume spike to an outlet catheter. In order to minimize dead volume and insure complete discharge, the accumulator employs a titanium diaphragm seated in one position by a recessed stop and in the discharge position by a spacer plate having a concentric groove pattern. The grooves are in fluid communication with the inlet and outlet. Also, a wide groove extending between inlet and outlet provides fluid communication between the grooves. The unit is externally programmed.

Abstract: A papermakers fabric having a system of flat monofilament machine direction yarns 22,23 (hereinafter MD yarns) interwoven with a system of cross machine direction yarns 21a,21b (hereinafter CMD yarns). The MD yarns 22,23 have an aspect ratio of greater than 3:1. Furthermore the MD yarns are vertically stacked with at least paired upper 22 and lower 23 MD yarns which weave over and under CMD yarns 21a,21b in such a manner that when a lower MD yarn 23 weaves over a CMD yarn 21a an upper MD yarn 22 is weaving (or floating) over the lower MD yarn 23. This ensures that no knuckles are apparent on the upper surface of the fabric. The weave gives rise to a warp-fill in the range of 80-125%.

Abstract: Process for producing cement clinker with improved dust recovery.  g cording to this process an inorganic filler passes through an exchanger, a furnace and a quenching zone, while a derived stream is subjected to cooling and to dust removal, which dust removal is made easier by the incorporation of clinker dust in the derived stream, so that deposits in the exchanger are avoided. This process makes it possible to produce a clinker of good quality with a reduced pollution of the environment.
