Air cleaner assemblies and components therefor are described. An example first or main filter cartridge is described which includes a media pack comprising strips of fluted material secured to facing sheets, oriented in a stack. The media pack defines opposite inlet and outlet flow faces, with flutes extending in a direction therebetween. The media pack is non-removably secured within a filter cartridge housing, at a location between opposite sections of a shell, typically secured thereto with an adhesive. The shell also defines a closed end, spaced from, but in overlap with, the outlet end face of the media pack. The closed end is typically curved and the shell typically provides either a d/b-shape or a u-shape. The filter includes an end member, with a outlet flow aperture arrangement therein, allowing for outlet flow from the filter cartridge in a general direction orthogonal to air flow through the media pack. The air cleaner assembly includes a housing having features for receipt of, and engagement by, the filter cartridge. An optional secondary filter cartridge is provided, mountable on the housing in an orientation projecting into a clean air volume in the main filter cartridge.

A method of reducing deposits in an internal combustion engine, comprising lubricating the internal combustion engine with a lubricating oil composition comprising lubricating oil base oil, one or more anti-wear additives and one or more poly(hydroxycarboxylic acid) amide salt derivatives preparable by reaction of an amine and a poly(hydroxycarboxylic acid) of formula (I) Y—CO[O-A-CO]n—OH (I) where Y is hydrogen or optionally substituted hydrocarbyl group, A is a divalent optionally substituted hydrocarbyl group and n is from 1 to 100, with an acid or a quaternizing agent.
摘要:
A universal joint having a cross-member journal or trunnion with a lubrication chamber includes a combination of a thrust washer and lubrication baffle press fit into the lubrication chamber. The thrust washer and lubrication baffle incorporate one or more lubrication grooves, facilitating the flow of lubricant between the surfaces of the cross-member and bearing cap. Elastomeric properties of the thrust washer eliminate the need for grinding of the journal surfaces to desired tolerances, while incorporation of lubrication grooves into the thrust washer surface eliminates the need for pressing of lubrication grooves directly into the journal ends prior to hardening or heat treating.
摘要:
A filter element, a safety element and fluid cleaner assembly. The fluid cleaner assembly generally includes a housing having a cover and a primary fluid cleaner section. The element generally comprises z-filter media, arranged in a straight through configuration, and an axial seal gasket positioned to extend continuously around at outer perimeter of the straight through flow construction. The fluid cleaner assembly can have a precleaner positioned therein. Methods of assembly and use are provided.

A process for the patterning of a desired substance on a surface includes: (i) charging a particle formation vessel with a compressed fluid; (ii) introducing into the particle formation vessel a first feed stream comprising a solvent and the desired substance dissolved therein and a second feed stream comprising the compressed fluid, wherein the desired substance is less soluble in the compressed fluid relative to its solubility in the solvent and the solvent is soluble in the compressed fluid, and wherein the first feed stream is dispersed in the compressed fluid, allowing extraction of the solvent into the compressed fluid and precipitation of particles of the desired substance; (iii) exhausting compressed fluid, solvent and the desired substance from the particle formation vessel at a rate substantially equal to a rate of addition of such components to the vessel in step (ii) through a restrictive passage to a lower pressure whereby the compressed fluid is transformed to a gaseous state, and wherein the restrictive passage includes a discharge device that produces a shaped beam of particles of the desired substance at a point beyond an outlet of the discharge device, where the fluid is in a gaseous state at a location before or beyond the outlet of the discharge device; and (iv) exposing a receiver surface to the shaped beam of particles of the desired substance and selectively depositing a pattern of particles on the receiver surface.
摘要:
A method, system, and apparatus for the collection, analysis, and disposal of controlled substances are described. A collector receives an excess of controlled substance and stores the controlled substance so that unauthorized access is minimized. An analysis determines the chemical composition and concentration. The results of the analysis are reviewed and reconciled against information in an overseeing authority information system or against information provided by the depositor of the controlled substance or both. The controlled substance is disposed of once it has been confirmed that the substance deposited in the collector is the same substance claimed to be deposited and the same substance issued by the pharmacy or other qualified authorities.
摘要:
A filler metal including not more than about 0.1% C, not more than about 1.0% Si; not more than about 0.8% Mn; from about 10.5% to about 13.0% Cr; from about 0.65% to about 4.0% Ni; from about 10(% C) to about 1.5% Ti; not more than about 0.5% each of N, S, P, Mo, Nb, Cu, V, or Co; and balance essentially Fe, wherein a weld test pad of the filler metal contains a microstructure comprising martensite. A method of attaching together two components using a modified filler metal which forms a weld containing an amount of martensite sufficient to increase the volume of the weld thereby at least partially offsetting shrinkage of the weld upon cooling, and articles produced thereby.
摘要:
The present invention discloses a sandwich method and a kit for assaying interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) in a sample. The method comprises determining reactivity of said sample with a plurality of ligands, each said ligand having binding affinity for a specific site on the receptor, said site being different for each said ligand and distinct from interleukin-2 binding site on the receptor. The invention also discloses a method of detecting such disturbed or abnormal conditions in humans which release soluble IL-2R in the body fluid.
摘要:
An orthopedic device configured to provide support and/or resistance to a joint. The orthopedic device is adjustable and lightweight and configured to permit a substantial full range of motion of the joint. The orthopedic device can comprise a torso portion, an upper arm portion, and a support system, wherein at least the support system is adapted to mimic part of the muscular system structure and function of the muscles that are used during the range of motion of the joint.
