Title: Ground stabilising for tunnelling or heading - tensioners drilled in and anchored ahead and on face
IPC: E21D9/00
Filed: 1970-09-24
Abstract: Ground movement, settling etc. prevention or restriction procedure for use in tunnels, headings etc. is achieved by means of strata bolts which are drilled into the rock beds at the face and deeper in the line of the tunnel. One or more holes are drilled in the face together with a number of holes to serve as anchorages, and these then connected up to the face to enable a tensioner to be inserted with the object of transmitting tensile stresses. The tensioner is anchored in the hole and also by a thrust bearing on the face itself, one of these fitted out with an adjustable tensioner. When the face is broken out as the tunnel is driven deeper, the abutments bearing against this are carried along with the advancing face without relaxing the pre-tension in the system. The tensioners should be prestressed by means of shafts bored in from the heading or tunnel face, or from the face of a heading driven in the opposite direction.

Abstract: Addition of controlled amounts of water to the reaction mixture produced by phosgenation of a mixture of polymethylene polyphenyl polyamines (and like polyamines produced by condensation of formaldehyde and aromatic amines) prior to complete removal of excess phosgene gives rise to the corresponding polymethylene polyphenyl polyisocyanates having significantly improved properties. Not only is the color of the product, and of polyurethane foams prepared therefrom, significantly lighter but the proportion of higher molecular weight products is significantly less and the viscosity is less. No undesirable by-products are introduced into the polyisocyanate as a result of the process.

Abstract: An interchangeable hearing aid control panel with at least one activation zone arranged in connection with a layered structure. The layered structure has an electrically nonconducting substrate (20), an electrically conducting path (31) arranged in connection with the substrate, and an electrically conducting member (40), such as a conducting foil, arranged at a predetermined distance from the activation zone. The activation zone can be either in a deactuated or in an actuated state. In the actuated state the conducting member and the conducting path are electrically connected while disconnected in the deactuated state. Electrical connection to an associated hearing aid is by means of a connector, such as a plug, enabling the control panel to be easily changed. Preferably, the connector is formed by a piece of flexprint. The layered structure may comprise a second conducting path (32). In preferred embodiments activation zones are indicated by "poppel domes" formed by a surface layer covering the layered structure. The activation zones may form an MTO control or a volume control. To fit BTE hearing aids, the layered structure preferably has an elongated structure with a length of 1-4 cm. Other shapes can be formed to fit ITE, ITC and CIC hearing aids.

Abstract: A packaged catheter assembly and method of manufacturing and distributing same includes a gas impermeable package housing a catheter within a catheter-receiving-cavity. The catheter assembly has a hydrophilic coating applied to at least a portion of the outer surface of a catheter tube or shaft which may be surrounded by a sleeve to provide a no-touch, sure grip feature. The catheter assembly is disposed within the catheter receiving cavity of the package together with a limited amount of a vapor donating liquid provided as a source of vapor to activate the hydrophilic coating. The amount of vapor donating liquid is less than the amount that would otherwise be sufficient to cause a spill hazard. It may be loose liquid as a desired percentage of the volume of a tube-receiving portion of the catheter receiving cavity of the package, or it may be contained in a liquid sequestering element. The activation of at least some of the hydrophilic coating occurs solely by reason of exposure of the outer surface of the catheter to a vapor produced by the vapor donating liquid. The distribution of the catheter following manufacture is delayed for a time sufficient to permit the vapor to complete hydration of the entire hydrophilic coating on the surface.
