Title: Method of making curved, shaped absorbent article
Inventor: HINES LETHA MARGIE
IPC: A61F13/511
Filed: 1992-07-23
Granted: 1999-07-06
Abstract: A method of making a curved absorbent article, such as a sanitary napking is pro vided. In one embodiment, the method comprises placing the components of the absorbent article on a curved surface an d securing the components while they are in a curved configuration. In another embodiment, the absorbent article is curved by stretching an elastically extensible component of the absorbent article and securing the extensible component to another component while the extensible component is extended, then allowing the extended component to retract. The absorbent article is, thus, curved without the use of separate elastic strands.

Title: Tape cassette with tape cleaners
Inventor: WATANABE MASARU
IPC: G11B23/087
Filed: 1993-04-29
Granted: 1996-09-17
Abstract: The present invention relates to a tape cassette for accommodating a reeled length of magnetic recording tape comprises a generally rectangular flattened box-like configuration. The cassette has top and bottom panels, front and rear wall and a pair of side walls. The front wall has a head access window and a pair of pinch roller access windows all defined therein. Tape cleaners are secured to the front wall portions defined between the head access window and the pinch roller access windows located on either side. The tape cleaners are in contact with the length of magnetic recording tape which has respective ends secured to reels within the cassette. Each tape cleaner may be a fiber-intertwined cleaning member made of nonwoven fabric or a fiber-tufted cleaning member made of crimped or curled fibers closely planted on a backing. With the fiber-intertwined cleaning members, that portion of the length of magnetic recording tape that is held in sliding contact with an intermediate portion of each fiber-intertwined cleaning member is backwardly biased a predetermined bias distance within the range of 0.5 to 1 mm, but with the fiber-tufted cleaning members, that portion of the length of magnetic recording tape that is held in sliding contact with an intermediate portion of each fiber-intertwined cleaning member is backwardly biased a predetermined bias distance within the range of 0.1 to 1 mm.

Inventor: DUDENHOEFFER VINCENT JOSEPH
IPC: B32B27/28
Filed: 1993-11-09
Granted: 2000-01-04
Abstract: ABSTRACT      An article for enclosing a bone-in food mass is constituted by a heat shrinkable thin bag and a non-heat shrinkable thick patch bonded to the outer surface of the bag.  The bonding surfaces have high surface energy as the sole bonding means so that, upon heat shrinking, the strength of the patch-bag bond increases, while the bag portion adhered to the patch shrinks to a lesser extent than the remainder of the bag but without the patch delaminating from the bag.  The patch outer surface may be ethylene vinyl acetate, VLDPE, LLDPE or blends thereof.  The inner surface of the patch may be ethylene vinyl acetate, VLDPE and blends of ethylene vinyl acetate and VLDPE.  The bag outer surface may be ethylene vinyl acetate, VLDPE, blends of ethylene vinyl acetate and VLDPE, blends of ethylene vinyl acetate and LLDPE and blends of ethylene vinyl acetate, VLDPE and LLDPE.

Abstract: An oral hygiene appliance includes a base on which upstands a cabinet having top, front and rear vertical walls.  A pair of recesses are formed in either side of that front wall.  A plurality of seats within those recesses are each receptive of a jet tip.          An inlet is defined in the top wall. A cover is shaped to envelope the cabinet over the recesses and the inlet with the cover being invertable to serve as a reservoir.          Disposed within the cabinet is a pump responsive to a pressure control for delivering water received from the inlet.       Seated toward one end of the base is the lower end of an elongated electric toothbrush body.          Individual brushes are seated in the base around the body and those brushes ordinarily to the rear of the body are elevated on a pedestal.  At the opposite end of the base is a well in which is seated the lower end of a handle in which a faceted lower end of one of the jet tips may be captivated.  A pressure control unit cooperates with the pump assembly to guard against excessive pressure and permit easy control of the level of pressure delivered from the jet tip mounted in the handle.

Abstract: A cord lock device (40) of unitary construction has a body of resilient material and a slit (50) through the center thereof that defines two cord gripping surfaces (52a, 52b). A cord or cords (30a, 30b) threaded through the slit (50) are securely engaged by a clamping effect at the slit (50) and surface friction between the cords (30a, 30b) and the gripping surfaces (52a, 52b) of the slit (50). The clamping effect results from pressure being applied to the base of the cord lock device (40) by the article to which the cords (30a, 30b) are attached. One releases the cords (30a, 30b) by squeezing with the fingers the exterior sides (72a, 72b) of the cord lock body, being perpendicular to the slit (50). This causes the slit (50) to pucker and thus spread the slit walls (52a, 52b).

Abstract: In a mobile communication system of the present invention, a cordless base unit LBU is connected to a wired subscriber line SL. The base unit LBU detects a radio channel assigned to a cell other than a cell where the base unit LBU is located, among radio channels assigned to the cells of a cellular radio communication system. This radio channel is used as a radio channel for a cordless call. On the other hand, a cellular cordless telephone CCT is provided with a mode switch. When a cordless mode is designated by the mode switch, a radio channel for a cordless call is detected, as with the case of the base unit LBU. At the time of the cordless call, a transmission power level of the cellular cordless telephone CCT is set at a weak level smaller than that for a cellular call.
