摘要:
The present invention relates to a kitchen utensil such as a whisk (10) having a handle and at least one elongate member (18) attached to the handle for contacting at least one of a food and a food preparation surface. The at least one elongate member has a cross-sectional profile that is non-round. Preferably, the elongate member comprises a central core and a resilient covering having a non-round peripheral cross-sectional shape at least one of V, flower, star, square and cog shapes. The elongate member may be shaped to conform to the internal profile of a vessel. Such kitchen utensils provide improved whisking, mixing, beating and scraping action.

A display wheel cover (10) assembly connectable to a rotatable wheel (W) of a vehicle (V). This invention (10) includes an inner member (14) rigidly connectable to the outside of the wheel (W) and having a support-bearing member (54) positioned coaxially with the wheel (W). A wheel cover (12) having a coaxially extending support shaft (36) is rotatably supported in the support-bearing member (54). An elongated cylindrical locking member (38) is positioned within a longitudinal aperture formed through the support shaft (36). A cam member (40), connected to a distal end of the locking member (38), has a non-symmetric periphery such that, when properly rotatably orientated, it is fully insertable into said support bearing member (54). In a second rotational orientation, the cam member (40) prevents withdrawal of the support shaft (36) from the support-bearing member (54). A counterweight (59) attached to the wheel cover (12) prevents rotation of the wheel cover (12). Interchangeable display indicia can be attached to the wheel cover (12).

A storing and dispensing system for substantially rectangular objects has a tray (12) with a plurality of side-by-side cells (40). Each cell has a bottom (30) that terminates at a location (41) spaced from a rear guide (32) to create a supporting surface (42) and a gap (44) contiguous with the rear guide of the cell to permit an object in the cell to be tilted into the gap to gain better access to an object in an adjacent cell.

A device for detecting whether the voltage at a point (A) is low, high or floating comprises a first voltage source (V1), a second voltage source (V2) having a voltage less than the voltage of the first source, and a series of diodes( D2a, D2b) for connection at one end to the point (A). The diodes exhibit a voltage drop when they conduct and it is this voltage drop which is used in the analysis of the voltage at the point (A). A first resistor (R1) is connected between the said one end of the diodes (D2a, D2b) and the second voltage source (V2), and a second resistor (R2) is connected between the other end of the diodes (D2a, D2b) and the first voltage source (V1). Means (R4, R5, R6, R7, T1, T2) responsive to the voltages on either side of the diodes (D2a, D2b) provides an indication of the voltage at the point.
摘要:
A method of curing polymer coatings by laser photochemistry in which UV laser irradiation of the coating containing a photoinitiator sensitive to a selected wavelength of the laser light effects a low energy cure of the coatings. The total energy to effect a cure is markedly reduced by applying a series of pulses of the laser light at a low single pulse fluence. A reduction of the single pulse fluence at a constant pulse repetition rate or a reduction of the pulse repetition rate at a constant single pulse fluence tends to further reduce the total energy required to effect a cure of the coating.

摘要:
@ A coordinate measuring machine (10) having a vertically movable probe (41) supported from the bottom of a probe arm (42), the weight of which is offset by an improved pneumatic counterbalance (50). The pneumatic counterbalance is adapted to use a source of pressurized air acting upon a spherical piston (54) which is connected to probe arm (42). Spherical piston (54) fits with a close tolerance in cylinder (52). A rigid bracket (58) is connected to the top of probe arm (42). Piston rod (56) connects spherical piston (54) to a spherical bearing (53) in rigid bracket (58). A precision pressure regulator (70) having a relatively small capacity is provided to insure only a small change in the counterbalance force as the spherical piston (54) moves within cylinder (52). Regulator (70) is adjusted to provide make up air for the air which leaks past spherical piston (54).
摘要:
A domestic food processor which consists of a base (11) containing an electric driving motor, an aperture (17) in the upper surface of the base through which a driving shaft (16) from the motor projects, a substantially cylindrical food processing container (10) closed at its upper end by a removable lid having an aperture forthe introduction of food Into the container, the container being removably attached to the upper part of the base with the driving motor shaft projecting through a hole (18) in the bottom of the container, a sleeve (19) in the container surrounding the hole in the bottom and projecting upwardly into the container to form an annular liquid containing well around the hole, a food processing tool (13) for processing food in the container being removably mounted on the driving shaft, the characterising feature of the invention being that the food processing container has an outwardly tapering wall from top to bottom making an angle with a line parallel to the central axis of the container of between 5° and 20° and preferably about 7 112° whereby a significant increase in food processing capacity as compared with a food processor of similar construction having a container with a right cylindrical wall is obtained.
摘要:
A wire whisk that is safe for use on non-stick cookware with an array of flexible wire loops, each loop having two ends secured to the inner end of the handle. The whisk has silicone tubing surrounding each wire loop to render it heat resistant but non-abrasive for use on non-stick coating surfaces. Silicone tubing together with internal wire loops preserves the superior whipping action of flexible wire with the non-stick non-abrasive properties of a silicone surface. The wire loops and associated tubing may be disposed in any conventional whisk configuration such as that of a piano whisk; en egg whisk; a flat whisk; a balloon whisk; or a Swedish style/helical wire configuration.
