Title: Method for garbage disposal
Inventor: BROSOW JOERGEN
IPC: B09C1/10
Filed: 1993-11-03
Abstract: ABSTRACT      Waste disposal  sites are sealed at night by means of covering layers of earth in order to prevent food-seeking animals from spreading disease and foul-smelling gases from escaping.          In order to minimize the loss of valuable dumping volume to covering layer 3, it is proposed that the latter be in the form of carpets of foam, whose volume requirement when newly covered with garbage 2 is insignificant.  It is particularly advantageous if added to carpets of foam 3 are microorganisms that facilitate garbage decomposition (Fig. 2).

Title: Air gap safety tube
Inventor: GREXTON NORMAN T
IPC: F16L3/00
Filed: 1993-10-12
Abstract: Page # 1 ABSTRACT      When routinely flushing a hydrant or using water from a fire hydrant for hydraulic cleaning of a sanitary or storm sewer there is a need to control the dynamic water pressures in the hose and to maintain an air gap between the potable water supply (fire hydrant) and  the non-potable receiving water  (sanitary or storm sewer system). In this invention a directional flow tube with a universal fire hose coupling attachment is placed into a trailer hitch receiver of a truck. The directional flow tube has a 50mm square steel tubing welded to it  (flow tube support)  and is used to connect the directional flow tube to the truck. When the hose is attached to the flow tube and the flow tube support is placed in the trailer hitch of the truck the dynamic pressures of the water flow is controlled by the weight of the truck. The directional flow tube also maintains a physical air gap between the potable water supply and non-potable receiving water. the directional flow tube can be constructed for any hydrant hose size.

Title: Improved nonwoven moldable composite and method of manufacture
Inventor: FRANK GEORGE A
IPC: D04H1/54
Filed: 1993-03-31
Abstract: A moldable, nonwoven composite material and method of manufacture thereof is provided. The method of manufacture includes by blending a mix of first fibers and second thermoplastic fibers. The second fibers have a melting point lower than that of the first fibers and comprise approximately 40-80 percent of the blend. The blend is then processed into a fibrous batt. The batt is then consolidated into a nonwoven structure with the first fibers being thoroughly intermixed with the second fibers. The non-woven structure is then heated to a temperature below the melting point of the first fibers and above the melting point of the sec-ond thermoplastic fibers to substantially liquefy the second fibers and form a thermoplastic resin. The heated nonwoven structure is compressed to flow the liquefied resin to displace air voids in the nonwoven structure and encapsulate the first fibers. Finally, the nonwoven structure is cooled to form a composite material having substantially reduced air voids therein with the first fibers thoroughly encapsulated by the resin and with the composite material being substantially free from shrinkage when subjected to thermoforming.

Patent CA-2117717-A1 (CA)
Title: Dual actuator mechanical switch
Inventor: HENRY DENNIS P
IPC: H01H36/00
Filed: 1994-09-20
Abstract: A floor switch mounted on an elevator shaft wall has a housing from which a shaft extends. An arm has one end attached to the shaft and an opposite end attached to a roller. The roller is engaged by a switching vane mounted on an elevator car during up and down travel of the car in the shaft. As the car passes the switch the vane rotates the arm and the shaft to move a lever which is coupled to actuate switch contacts in the housing. To avoid the engagement of the roller by the vane, a magnetic switch is mounted in the housing and is responsive to a magnet mounted on the car. The magnet mounted on the car passes the magnetic switch shortly before the vane is to engage the roller and the magnetic switch connects a coil in the housing to electrical power. The coil retracts an armature which is coupled to the lever to move the roller out of the path of travel of the vane.
