Title: Tubular electrical heater for smoking machine
Inventor: HAJALIGOL MOHAMMAD R
IPC: A24F40/20
Filed: 1995-04-06
Abstract: A cylindrical tube is provided of a mechanically strong and flexible electrical conductor such as a metal and has a plurality of separated regions. An electrically insulating layer such as a ceramic is applied on the outer surface except for one exposed portion. Electrically resistive heaters are then applied to the insulated regions and are electrically connected at one end to the underlying electrical conducting region. The electrical conductor is connected to the negative terminal of a power source. The other end of all the heaters are adapted to be connected to the positive terminal of the source. Accordingly, an electrically resistive heating circuit is formed wherein the tube serves as a common for all of the heating elements. The tubular heater can comprise an exposed end hub with a plurality of blades extending therefrom. Each blade can have an individual heater deposited thereon. Alternatively, every other blade can have a heater deposited thereon. The blades having no heater function as barriers to minimize outward escape of generated vapors. These barrier blades also function as heat sinks for the heaters on adjacent blades.

Title: Ground working equipment to cut channels for subsequent sowing of seed
Inventor: TANNER ERROL ROBERT
IPC: A01B35/16
Filed: 1998-03-23
Abstract: There is provided a method of operating a ground cutting blade characterised by the steps of: a) imparting to the blade a substantially vertical motion and b) deliberately imparting to the blade a sideways motion. Preferably, the cutting blade is a disk coulter such as those used in agricultural ground working machinery. Referring to Figure 1 there is provided ground working apparatus generally illustrated by arrow 1 which can operate a blade 2 as indicated above. A drag arm 3 depends from a ground working unit (not shown). A shaft 4 extends from the drag arm 3. The longitudinal axis of the shaft 4 is at approximately right angles to the direction of travel of the drag arm 3. Bearings 8 enable the shaft 4 to rotate with respect to the drag arm 3. At the end of the shaft 4 closest to the blade 2 is an off-set portion 6. The off-set portion 6 is connected to a hub 7 onto which the blade 2 is mounted. The shape of the off-set portion 6 and its relationship to the shaft 4 and the hub 7 is such that the central longitudinal axis of the hub 7 is not aligned with the central longitudinal axis of the shaft 4. Further, the off-set portion 6 causes the hub 7 to tilt with respect to the vertical. This relationship is shown in exaggerated form in Figure 1A.

Title: Dip tube device for introducing a predetermined dose of additive into a packaged liquid
Inventor: FRUTIN BERNARD DEREK
IPC: A61J3/00
Filed: 2000-06-22
Abstract: An apparatus for introducing an additive material (131) in the form of a liquid or granulated solid into a liquid (40) stored in a first container (150).  The additive component (131) is stored separately from the liquid (40) in a dip tube or conduit (130).  The dip tube (130) is a resilient hollow tubular member and has a valve (300) at one end, adapted to open when the dip tube (130) is subject to internal pressure to allow the passage of said additive material (131) therethrough.  The valve prevents the additive material (131) from leaking or dripping into the liquid (40) in the first container (150) when the dip tube and first container are at the same pressure, but which allows the passage of liquid or pourable solid additive from the dip tube (130) into the liquid (40) in the first container (150) when the dip tube is pressurised by introduction of propellant fluid (116, 516).  A second valve (520) can be used to prevent the additive material (131) from leaking or dripping into a second container (510) that is the source of the pressurised propellant fluid (116, 516).
