Abstract: MINI AIR METER FOR FRESH CONCRETE          ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          A volumetric test apparatus for entrained air contents  of  regular  and  lightweight  fresh  concrete comprises an outer container,  an inner bowl,  an upper tapered top section detachably securable to the outer container and a cover and rod for the top section.  The concrete sample is placed in the bowl and rodded with the rod to eliminate any large entrapped air voids.  The bowl is then placed in the outer container which is  then filled with water and the top section is sealably locked in place upon the outer container and is also filled with water whereupon a cap is screw threadably engaged upon the cover.   After manual agitation, the cap is removed allowing previously entrained air to escape and the top and container is then topped up with alcohol which is measured as it is poured into the apparatus.  The volume of the entrained air may then be calculated readily and easily.

Granted: 1990-11-27
Abstract: MODEM WITH CALL WAITING          Abstract of the Disclosure A modem is adapted to accommodate a call waiting feature so that a user can select to continue an ongoing call or accept an incoming call. The modem detects a call waiting signal and generates a call waiting message. Where a call waiting signal is preceded by a loss of carrier, the modem detects the loss of carrier and then detects the presence of energy an a call progress band indicating that a new call is waiting. The modem can be selectably programmed to process the call waiting signal or to provide a call waiting message to a communications software package that can process the call waiting signal. The modem, in conjunction with the communications software package, responds to the call waiting signal by asking whether the user wants to answer the incoming call or continue with the ongoing communication. The modem generates a programmable default response if the user does not respond within a prescribed time.

Abstract: PACKAGING SYSTEM FOR DISPOSABLE ENDOSCOPE SHEATHS               Abstract of the Disclosure A system for packaging disposable endoscope sheaths so that they do not become contaminated prior to use during shipment,  storage and installation on an endoscope.   The packaging system also prevents the spread of contamination after  use  while  the  sheath  is  being  removed  from  the endoscope and then discarded.  The sheath is shipped in an elongated, flexible bag having a length substantially equal to the length of the  insertion tube of the endoscope and a diameter  substantially  larger  than  the  diameter  of  the insertion tube.   The sheath and bag may be shipped in a sterile tray having a spiral recess containing the sheath, bag and funnel-like container or bag holding the tubing of the air, water, and suction channels.   Installation of the sheath on the endoscope is accomplished by inflating the sheath while it is in the bag so that the sheath expands until it contacts the wall of the bag.  The insertion tube is then inserted into the sheath, the sheath is deflated and the insertion tube and surrounding sheath are removed from the bag for use.  After use, the insertion tube and surrounding sheath are inserted into the bag, and the sheath is inflated until it is restrained from further expansion by the wall of the bag.  The insertion tube is then removed from the sheath, the sheath is deflated, and the sheath and surrounding bag are discarded as a unit, the funnel-like proximal segment being used to dispose of the contaminated tubes (air, water, suction, etc.).

Abstract: ABSTRACT            A tool for separating the two components of a modular joint prosthesis intended for implantation in a body. The prothesis includes a component adapted to be fixed to a long bone having an intramedullary canal and further includes an elongated male stem having a uniformly tapered outer surface.  In order to accommodate the particular size of long bone to which the component is to be fixed, a properly sized female stem is attached to the male stem before the component is fixed to the long bone.  The female stem is adapted to be received in the intramedullary canal for fixation thereto, and has a uniformly tapered inner surface, the angle of the taper being substantially similar to the angle of taper of the outer surface of the male stem. As a result, the male stem and female stem become locked together when the inner surface of the female stem engages the outer surface of the male stem.  The proper size of female stem is obtained by selecting it from a family of female stems having a graduated sequence of different external dimensions.  A tool is also disclosed for the disengage the female stem from the bone.

Abstract: A hard foreign body in a stream of cut crop being moved by a conveyor in an agricultural machine to a crop comminuter of the machine is detected by first compressing the stream of cut crop transversely of its displacement direction between a pair of feed elements one of which is movable toward and away from the other and generating an actual-value output corresponding to the acceleration of the movable element toward and away from the other element. This output is compared with a set point corresponding to an acceleration level not normally exceeded by the element when the crop stream contains no hard foreign objects. An error signal is generated when the actual-value output exceeds the set point. When the error signal is issued advance of the conveyor is stopped and/or a warning is issued. The actual-value output is only generated when the acceleration of the movable feed element exceeds a predetermined limit. The actual-value output is a voltage and the set point is also a voltage.

Abstract: Triglyceride oils, which contain besides fatty acids having two double bonds, fatty acids having more than two double bonds, are hydrogenated using palladium, platinum, rhodium and/or iridium as a catalyst, the catalyst being treated with dry ammonia. The hydrogenation is carried out at a temperature of at least 100 DEG  C. The hydrogenation progresses in a particularly selective manner. On using, for instance, soyabean oil, which contains about 55% of linoleic acid and 7% of linolenic acid, the amount of linolenic acid can be reduced to 2%, whereby more than 45% of linoleic acid is retained in the hydrogenated product. In case the catalyst is not treated, said amount is only about 35%.

Abstract: After reaching a temperature of about 450 DEG C, the flue gases formed in the fire space (1) of the furnace are brought to a temperature of 200 - 250 DEG C by abrupt cooling (4). This abrupt cooling (quenching) is preceded by utilisation of the heat of the flue gases in a high temperature stage (2) from 1000 - 1200 DEG C to about 450 DEG C and the abrupt cooling is followed by a low temperature stage (6) from 200 - 250 DEG C to about 150 DEG C. This avoids a new synthesis in which dioxins and furans are formed from the components of the flue gases and the fly ash.
