A beverage dispensing apparatus being formed so as in use to provide a vortex motion in the mass of beverage flowing through the apparatus. In the vortexial flow, a low pressure area is produced at the center of the vortex so that the pressure in that region falls below equilibrium pressure and thus results in gas separating out from the liquid beverage. Since the gas breakout is achieved without the need for a flow restrictor, the pressure drop associated with these devices does not occur. Consequently, the beverage may enter the apparatus at a lower pressure. Moreover it has been found that a high quality head is formed on the draught beverage dispensed from the apparatus of the invention.

A method and apparatus for handling an accessed bit in a page table entry is provided. When a page table entry is not present in a translation lookaside buffer (TLB), an electrical circuit causes a TLB miss exception and branching to a first software exception handler. The first software exception handler fetches the page table entry from main memory. The first software exception handler places the page table entry in the TLB. An electrical circuit determines whether an accessed bit of the page table entry has not been asserted. If the accessed bit is not asserted, an electrical circuit causes an accessed bit exception and branches execution to a second software exception handler. The second software exception handler asserts the accessed bit in the page table entry in main memory. The second software exception handler returns control back to the original memory access, causing execution to resume where it had left off prior to the TLB miss exception. This process may be practiced for an upper-level page table entry or a lower level page table entry.

A reverse percussion device for use with hydraulic percussive drills is provided. The reverse percussion device includes a cycling piston, valve and anvil. The piston and valve move in opposing directions between low and high pressure passages automatically until a lodged drill bit is freed, thereby facilitating removal of the drill bit from the drilled hole and eliminating alternate loosening and tightening of drill string threads. The reverse percussion device preferably includes an automatic disabling feature which causes the reverse percussion operation to cease when the bit is free to retract normally.

A cap for fitment to a closure neck of a container, such as a beer keg to cover the dispensing valve therein, said cap having a cover portion and a skirt portion, said skirt portion including a snap-fit means for fitting the cap to said neck, said cover portion including at least one line of weakness and a depressible tab portion, such that upon depression of said tap portion the cover portion is at least partially separated to allow detachment of the cap from the neck portion.

The present disclosure features tube insertion devices that are configured to allow a user to manually insert a hollow tube into a receiving bore, e.g., a pen tube into the bore of a blank. The disclosure also features methods of using such devices. In some implementations, the devices comprise (a) a pair of elongated arms, each arm comprising a gripping portion and an insertion portions, each of the insertion portions terminating in a distal tip, and (b) a connecting portion joining the arms such that the arms pivot about the connecting portion in a plane defined by the arms when the gripping portions are pressed together by a user. Each of the insertion portions preferably includes a relatively wider proximal portion and a relatively narrower distal tube-carrying portion, the change in width between the proximal portion and the distal portion defining a stop surface.

A method for making electrical interconnections of carbon nanotubes, including a) depositing an ionic liquid including nanoparticles of at least one suspended electrically conducting material, covering at least one surface of an element configured to be used as a support for carbon nanotubes, b) forming a deposit of the nanoparticles at least against the surface of the element, c) removing the remaining ionic liquid, d) growing carbon nanotubes from the deposited nanoparticles, and further including between the c) removing the remaining ionic liquid and the d) growing carbon nanotubes, passivating the deposited nanoparticles not found against the surface of the element.

摘要:
An improved side loading garbage truck that includes an improved packing method that utilizes a packing blade that doubles as the hopper cover, that includes its hydraulic cylinders outside the body of the truck, does not have any potential leak points inside the body and includes all grease points outside the body providing easier access to the cylinders, blade and grease points for maintenance and installation. The other improvement is the use of multi-point contact rollers thereby reducing wear and tear and extending the life of the side loader arm.
