Title: Lifting device or "simlift"
Inventor: ASFAR JAMAL J
IPC: B66C1/42
Filed: 1992-06-05
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE          The present  invention LIFTING DEVICE or  "SIMLIFT"  is related to the lifting or rigging of pipe, pipe piles, logs,  drilling  shafts,  or  other  flat  or  cylindrical objects.     The LIFTING DEVICE or "SIMLIFT" consists of lifting hook or lifting hooks, ball housing ring which contains metal balls, release collar and fastening ring.  To lift up a cylindrical object of given diameter the corresponding size collar is placed around the end where lifting will occur and as lifting starts, the force of gravity or some other ball setting mechanism will lower the balls in downwards direction,  thus providing a grip on the object to be lifted.   To release the LIFTING DEVICE or "SIMLIFT" a hammer or some other ball release mechanism will activate a Release Collar, which in turn will force the steel balls to move upwards, thus releasing the object to be lifted.          In case where the Release Collar is not accessible, the LIFTING DEVICE or "SIMLIFT" can be equipped with a setting and release mechanism which can be hydraulic or pneumatic to operated the Release Ring.          In its simplest form the LIFTING DEVICE or "SIMLIFT" could consist of one ball lifting device capable of lifting and holding in position a flat sheet of metal, paper, board, etc. and in this simplified form the invention is basically a paper clip or hanger.

Inventor: DENZIN DIRK E
IPC: B65D21/02
Filed: 1991-07-17
Abstract: A receptacle adaptable for nested stacking which has a bottom and walls which cooperate to form an open-topped well having rounded corners defined by a first radius. The receptacle includes a plurality of stop structures for limiting depth of insertion of adjacent receptacles in a nested orientation, which stop structures are preferably located at the corners of the well and comprise an integrally formed depression and an associated shelf in each corner. The shelf is generally planar and generally horizontal and has a boundary adjacent the well which is defined by a second radius, larger than the first radius which defines the corners. The depression has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion preferably depends outwardly of the well substantially from the boundary of the shelf and extends beyond a vertical line intersecting the boundary. The first portion is pitched outward of the vertical line from the boundary of the shelf. When measured in a plane which bisects the corner, the vertical line and the first portion subtend an acute angle. The second portion of the depression joins the first portion with the corner and presents a generally downward facing first abutting surface which spans the intersection of the boundary of the shelf of the next adjacent lower receptacle with a plane, the plane establishing a desired depth of insertion of the upper receptacle within the lower receptacle in a nested orientation.

Abstract: ABSTRACT            The present invention relates to polyurethane fusion adhesives that are hardened by the action of moisture and which contain at least one reaction product from a component that contains NCO groups and an essentially linear hydroxypolyester, hydroxypolyether, and/or hydroxypolyetherester component.  In addition, the present invention relates to a procedure for manufacturing a material that is permeable to water only in vapour form, this being in the form of a fibre material, in particular in the form of a web, which is joined to a polyurethane film, in which the fibre material is coated with a polyurethane material and subsequently the polyurethane material is hardened to form a water-vapour permeable film.  The present invention also relates to a material that is permeable to water only in vapour form and which is in the form of a fibre material, in particular in the form of a web, that is bonded to a polyurethane film.            According to the present invention, a fusion adhesive with a segmented hydroxypolyester or an hydroxypolyether or an hydroxypolyetherester component is used for this purpose as polyurethane material.  The fusion adhesive according to the present invention can be applied directly or by a transfer technique to the fibre material and is hardened in only one step, by the action of moisture, to form a water vapour permeable, but otherwise high quality water-proof membrane film.

Title: Fiber optic coupler and method of making
Inventor: ROBSON CHRISTOPHER D
IPC: G02B6/28
Filed: 1992-11-30
Abstract: Abstract Of The Disclosure A fiber optic coupler is formed by providing a glass tube having a longitudinal bore and first and second funnels connecting the bore to the ends of the tube.  The protective coating is stripped from the central portion of two optical fibers.  The first and second fibers are threaded into the tube bore until the uncoated portions thereof are located within the bore.  The protective coating of only one of the fibers extends into the first end of the bore, and the protective coating of only one of the fibers extends into the second end of the bore.  The fibers extend beyond the tube ends.  The bore diameter is just slightly larger than the sum of the diameter of the first fiber and the diameter of the coating of the second fiber.  The resultant tight fit of the fibers in the tube promotes the retention the fibers in parallel alignment during the subsequent tube collapse step.  The midregion of the tube is heated, collapsed about the fibers, and drawn to form a coupling region.
