Abstract: The invention is concerned with a quilting machine for quilting mattress, bedspreads, comforters, and the like. The machine comprises a carriage (18) on which an article to be quilted is held stretched. The carriage (18) is guided by horizontal rails (16,17) along which it is moved back-and-forth by a drive unit (29). Said carriage is overlaid by another carriage (70) which is guided in an orthogonal direction to that of said first-mentioned carriage (18) and carries one or more sewing heads (101,111). The latter carriage is driven by a unit (130) which determines, in cooperation with the drive unit (29) of said first-mentioned carriage, the relative movement of the sewing heads (101,111) and cloth in accordance with a preset pattern for the seam line.

Abstract: © The invention is concerned with a desmodromic valve operating mechanism, i.e. one in which the valve is mechanically closed instead of relying on the action of a spring. 
     The valve operating mechanism comprises a cam 20 driven in synchronism with the engine crankshaft. A cam follower 18 is acted upon by an opening profile 22 of the cam 20 and serves to move the valve 10 in an opening direction. A movable closing member 26 has two profiles 24, 28. The first profile 24 interacts with the cam 20 and the second 28 with the cam follower 18. Closure of the valve is effected by the opening profile 22 of the cam 20 acting on the first cam profile 24 of the closing member 26 to move the closing member 26 in such a direction that the second cam profile 28 of the closing member 26 acts on the cam follower 18 to close the valve 10.

IPC: B26B19/38
Filed: 1985-05-02
Abstract: A vibratory dry-shaving apparatus comprises a housing; a bipolar, uniphase, synchronous motor positioned within the housing and having a rotor and a stator; and a shaving head arranged on the housing and including a vibratory cutter part below a fixed cutter part. A wall separates the interior of the housing from the shaving head, such wall having a passage therethrough. A swing lever is driven by the rotor and engages the vibratory cutter part to drive the latter, the swing lever extending through the passage. An elastic sleeve surrounds the swing lever and seals the passage between the edge thereof and the swing lever. The elastic sleeve is asymmetrically designed so that, in a final end position of the vibratory cutter part where the magnetic fields of the rotor and the stator are parallel, no force resulting from deformation of the sleeve is exerted on the vibratory cutter part.

Abstract: Method or apparatus for unwinding gangions from a longline (18) fishing line by first wrapping all of the gangions (24) in a first direction about the longline (18) and thereafter unwrapping them to leave them relatively free from the longline (18). Wrapping and unwrapping can be accomplished by running the longline (18) through a series of hollow cylinders (40, 42) having permanent magnets mounted on the interior surface. The cylinders (40, 42) are rotated in opposite directions. As the gangions (24) enter the first of the cylinders, the hooks are attracted to the magnets in the rotating cylinders (40, 42) and are rotated about the longline (18) so as to wind all of the gangions (24) in a common direction. Thereafter, the hooks are attracted to the magnets in the second cylinder, which is rotating in the opposite direction, thereby unwinding the gangions (24). In this manner, regardless of the original wrap of the gangions (24) about the longline (18), each can be completely unwrapped and left dangling from the longline (18).

Abstract: Un cristal piézoélectrique, par exemple un cristal de quartz, enduit d'un métal ou d'un autre matériau adéquat, est exposé à l'action d'un liquide corrosif, de préférence par immersion dans celui-ci. La modification de masse sur la surface du cristal, provoquée par la corrosion, et la modification résultante de la fréquence d'oscillation naturelle du cristal sont déterminées et forment une mesure de la capacité de corrosion du liquide. La fréquence d'oscillation naturelle du cristal peut également être mesurée de cette manière in situ dans le liquide, permettant de suivre de manière continue le parcours dynamique de la réaction de corrosion. Conformément à un mode préférentiel de réalisation, il est possible d'augmenter la sensibilité pendant la mesure, si le cristal est pré-traité en étant activé au moyen d'une solution de sulfure.
