摘要:
An oral composition containing an essential oil that provides a physical warming sensation when administered to the oral cavity and a method for achieving a physical warming sensation by administering the oral composition. The essential oil is rich in cis and trans-Piperitone Oxide and Piperitenone Oxide that impart unique organoleptic characteristics when the essential oil is used as the primary flavoring ingredient or as an additive in flavor compositions for chewing gum, confections, oral care applications, beverages, and general food applications.

A new and distinct variety of Mentha canadensis (‘Metolius’) is characterized by its unique oil chemistry and flavor profile resembling that of peppermint oil, and by its tolerance to Verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahliae) and mint rust (Puccinia menthae). DNA microsatellite marker analysis has shown that ‘Metolius’ is a distinct variety of M. canadensis.

Earth-boring tools include wear-resistant materials disposed in at least one recess formed in an exterior surface of a body thereof. Exposed surfaces of the wear-resistant material are substantially level with exterior surfaces of the body adjacent the wear-resistant material. In some embodiments, recesses may be formed in formation-engaging surfaces of blades of earth-boring rotary tools, adjacent one or more inserts secured to bodies of earth-boring tools, or adjacent one or more cutting elements secured to bodies of earth-boring tools. Methods of forming earth-boring tools include filling one or more recesses formed in an exterior surface of a body with wear-resistant material and causing exposed surfaces of the wear-resistant material to be substantially level with the exterior surface of the body.

An earth-boring bit has a bit body that includes head sections, each having depending bit legs with a circumferentially extending outer surface, a leading side, and a trailing side. A bearing shaft depends inwardly from each of the bit legs for mounting a cutter. The bit includes a beveled surface formed at a junction of the leading side and the outer surface of each bit leg. The beveled surface is angled relative to a radial plane emenating from the axis of the bit. The angle of the beveled surface is at least 20 degrees, and extends to an inner surface of the bit leg. The bit can also have a layer of hardfacing on the leading, trailing and shirttail surfaces of the bit leg. A diversion finger of hardfacing extends circumferentially to direct cuttings.

An encapsulant is described for an optoelectronic device or optical component, which provides a coefficient of thermal expansion of less than 50 ppm/° C., with a variation of less than ±30%, and further provides an optical transmittance of at least 20% at a wavelength in the range of 400 to 900 nm, at an encapsulant thickness of about 1 mm. The encapsulant includes a filler consisting essentially of glass particles having diameters smaller than 500 μm, being essentially free of titania and lead oxide, and having a refractive index in the range of 1.48 to 1.60, with a variance of less than about 0.001. A method for making the encapsulant also is described, the method including steps of (1) processing the glass to form particles having diameters between 1 and 500 μm, (2) preparing an epoxy resin composition having at a cured stage a refractive index close to that of the glass filler particles, (3) mixing the epoxy resin composition with the filler particles to form a filled epoxy resin composition, (4) encapsulating an optoelectronic device with the filled epoxy resin composition, and (5) curing the filled epoxy resin composition.
摘要:
An encapsulant for use with opto-electronic devices and optical components incorporates a filler made from a glass that has been processed into particle form and heated to a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, along with an epoxy having an index of refraction matched to that of the glass and heated to a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, to prevent settling of the filler particles after mixing the filler particles with the epoxy, and thereby obtaining uniform dispersion of the particles within the epoxy. The encapsulant provides for high light transmittance, and its coefficient of thermal expansion can be varied by varying the amount of filler without substantially altering the optical properties of the encapsulant. The coefficient of thermal expansion variation within the encapsulant preferably is less than 30%, due to uniform dispersion of the filler particles within the epoxy.

The improved self-defense practice assembly includes a protective padded helmet with face mask and rear and lateral depending walls adapted to transmit head shocks downwardly to the shoulder area of a wearer of the helmet. The assembly also includes a pair of shoulder pads upon which the shock-transmitting wall rests. The assembly also includes a hard shell padded groin and spine protector, with a testicle well, integral rear lateral buttock-covering wings and an integral upwardly extending spine plate. The components meet and overlap so as to fully protect the head and body of the wearer when playing the roll of a mugging assailant in a self-defense course. The helmet is a shell padded inside and out and webbed at the upper inside. The shoulder pads may include a padded horse collar on which the depending helmet wall rests. The groin and spine protector can be releasably connected to the shoulder pads by hook and pile fasteners straps and/or waist, leg and shoulder suspender straps.
