Abstract: A shock absorbing component having a pair of surfaces with a plurality of inwardly extending indentations in the top and bottom surfaces. The indentations extend between the surfaces to provide support members for the shock absorbing component. At least some of the indentations are hemispherical. The surfaces may be formed of mesh material to allow the passage of gas or fluid therethrough. One or more inserts may be placed in the indentations. The shock absorbing component can be constructed by molding upper and lower shock absorbing component halves wherein the molds are configured to provide indentations in the top and bottom surfaces. The upper and lower halves are then joined to complete the shock absorbing component.

Patent EP-1182447-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GANEEV ALEXANDR AKHATOVICH
IPC: G01N21/71
Filed: 1998-09-21
Abstract: The present invention pertains to the construction of analytic instruments and can be used for analysing natural and industrial water,
biological samples, geological samples and air. The purpose of this invention is to reduce substantially the power used by the atomiser
and the analyser, and to increase the number of objects that can be analysed. To this end, the method for the thermionic atomisation of a
sample involves carrying out an ionic spnitering of the sample from the cathode in a low-pressure discharge. The cathode is heated by the
discharge to a temperature of between 800 and 1400 °C, while the ballast gas consists of Kr or Xe under a gas pressure of 10 to 15 torrs.
The thermionic atomisation device includes an atomiser arranged in a gas-discharge chamber filled with an inert gas. The atomiser is made
in the form of a hollow, cylindrical, metallic and thin-wall cathode. In order to reach this goal, the method involves using a thermionic
atomisation device which, in an efficient embodiment, consists of the above-mentioned gas-discharge atomiser, i.e. a hollow, metallic and
thin-wall cathode. This mechanism enables the sputtering and atomisation of the sample in a short time (0.2 to 1 sec.), thus lowering the
detection limits while eliminating matrix effects.

Abstract: The invention refers to some elastic plugs (1) that are
mounted on the legs (2) of a grill placed on the top of the
heat sources of a stove for the purpose of preventing the
wear of the support areas of the base where these legs of
the grill sit, preventing inappropriate noise and sliding. 
     The invention is centered on the advantageous

cited legs, thanks to which the assembly of the plugs is
made substantially easier. Likewise, once the plugs have
been assembled, it is difficult to remove them and this
