Inventor: NOSENCHUCK DANIEL M
IPC: B64C23/00
Filed: 1993-04-27

Abstract: Disclosed is an improvement to the stability of D.C. motor brushes mounted in brush boxes with wings, is improved by angling the wings toward the commutator that the brush spring contacts the brush at one or more points intermediate the ends of the brush. Improved cooling is provided by utilizing an end plate with apertures and a brush plate which, in combination with the commutator, provides a brush plate aperture for cooling air flow. In a preferred embodiment, speed variations of the motor can be achieved by selectively disconnecting one or more brushes in a four brush embodiment, reducing the torque and rotating speed of the motor. In a preferred embodiment, the use of a diode to interconnect same polarity brushes permits a speed change to be accomplished by selectively one or the other end of the diode. In a further preferred embodiment, the stalling of the motor having power applied is indicated by an electronic output where voltage applied to one brush is filtered through an RC filter with the output amplified and voltage doubled. A ripple output indicating that the motor is rotating after amplification will light a light-emitting diode indicating proper operation of the motor.

Title: Method for preparing organopolysiloxane bases and compositions therefrom
Inventor: CONWAY LORI JEAN
IPC: C08L83/04
Filed: 1995-07-04
Abstract: A method for preparing organopolysiloxane bases characterized by high levels of fillers.  We have found that by mixing the components of the base at a temperature of 60°C. or below for a time period sufficient to effect essentially a homogeneous blend, a base composition is formed which can be further blended with a platinum group metal-containing catalyst, an organohydrogensiloxane and, optionally, an inhibitor to form a curable liquid silicone rubber (LSR) composition.  The curable LSR composition has improved flow characteristics and shelf life when compared to similar materials where the base is prepared at temperatures above 60°C.  The improved flow characteristics allow larger quantities of fillers to be incorporated into our curable LSR composition while still maintaining acceptable flow characteristics.  Silicone elastomers prepared from these compositions have improved swell and degradation resistance to oils, lower compression set values and improved tear, elongation and tensile values without requiring post cure procedures.

Title: Novel low foaming rinse agents comprising alkylene oxide modified sorbitol fatty acid ester and defoaming agent
Inventor: BAUM BURTON M
IPC: C11D10/04
Filed: 1994-03-24
Abstract: Nonionic surfactants comprising a mixture of fatty acid esters of sorbitol and sorbitol anhydrides comprising predominantly the mono, di-or tri ester condensed with approximately 15 or more moles of an alkylene oxide in combination with an effective defoamer and a water soluble diluent form surprisingly useful and effective low foatning rinse agent composition or concentrate. The rinse agent can achieve adequate sheeting in cotnmon aqueous rinses at typical rinse temperatures at a concentration of the nonionic sorbitan ester in water at concentrations about 500 parts of the fully formulated rinse agent per million parts of water. The rinse agents can be used in a rinse cycle in common warewashing machines after washing with commonly available warewashing compositions. The rinse agents can take the form of thickened pourable or semi-pourable aqueous liquids or cast solid materials packaged within a disposable wrapper, capsule or other package. The preferred form of the rinse agent is a pourable or pumpable aqueous concentrate. The uniqueness of the invention relates to the fact that all components are not expected to be active as sheeting, agents and are approved as food additives thereby eliminating any health concerns associated with residual deposits of the compositions on cleaned water.

Patent CA-2161263-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HERRE JUERGEN
IPC: G10L19/008
Filed: 1994-07-08
Abstract: A method is provided herein for determining the type of coding to be selected for coding at least two signals, in which a transformation of signals into the frequency domain is carried out and, starting from spectral values, a similarity measure is determined on the basis of which one of at least two types of coding is selected. The invention involves the first step of coding at least one of such signals and then decoding in that type of coding which is used in the case of determining a high similarity measure, thereby generating at least one signal which is affected by coding error. Such signal which is affected by coding error and the associated signal which is not affected by the coding error are each transformed into the frequency domain. The respectively actually audible spectral components are either selected or evaluated starting both from the spectral values of the signal which is affected by coding error and from the spectral values of the associated signal which is not affected by the coding error using a listening threshold which is determined by a psychoacoustic calculation. The similarity measure is then calculated on the basis of the audible spectral components of at least the signal which is affected by coding error and the associated signal which is not affected by the coding error.

Title: Method for Reproducing Conifers by Somatic Embryogenesis Using Mixed Growth Hormones for Embryo Culture
Inventor: PULLMAN GERALD S
IPC: A01H4/00
Filed: 1993-08-18
Abstract: The invention is a method for reproducing conniferous trees by somatic embryogenesis using plant tissue culture techniques in a multistage culturing process. A suitable explant, typically the fertilized embryo excised from an immature seed, is first cultured on a medium that induces multiple early stage proembryos. These are multiplied in a second culture having reduced growth hormones. The early stage embryos may then be placed in or on a late stage proembroyo development culture in order to develop very robust late stage proembryos having at least 100 cells. Culturing from this point continues in a cotyledonary embryo development medium containing an active gibberellin (GA) in an amount up to about 50 mg/L. Preferably exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) is also present in a similar amount. Concentration of GA and ABA may be reduced over time by inclusion of an adsorbent such as activated charcoal or by stepwise subcultures in which the later cultures have reduced hormone concentrations. After several weeks somatic embryos having the appearance of zygotic embryos will have formed. These may be germinated before or after storage and transplanted to soil for further growth. In addition to its use in the cotyledonary embryo development stage, GA may also be advantageously included in any of the maintenance cultures following embryo initiation. The use of GA results in larger and more robust somatic embryos and ultimately in greater germination success.
