摘要： A flame arrestor is disclosed for use with an intake of an internal combustion engine, comprising a cylindrical housing defining an inlet and an outlet and a plurality of honeycombed passageways extending between the inlet and the outlet, wherein each of the plurality of honeycombed passageways has a predetermined length and a predetermined small cross-section substantially smaller than the predetermined length. The cylindrical housing is welded within a mounting bracket adapted for receipt in the intake of the internal combustion engine. The flame arrestor is particularly beneficial for use in a boosted engine in that cooling effectiveness and manufacturability are enhanced by the use of the honeycombed structure.

摘要： A method and apparatus for forming and dispensing a coating material formulation or solution containing a liquid coating composition and a fluid diluent such as a supercritical fluid comprises a supply for the liquid coating composition, a supply for the fluid diluent, a mixer for combining the two components to form the coating material solution or formulation, and a control system for monitoring a parameter of the formulation which can be correlated to the fluid diluent content and/or liquid coating composition content of the formulation, and for monitoring the pressure of the formulation at selected locations within the system. The control system is effective to open or close the supply of fluid diluent and/or liquid coating composition in accordance with variations in the formulation parameter which is being sensed, and in response to pressure changes within the system, to maintain single or multiple phase coating material formulations, to account for changes in a parameter of the liquid coating composition and to ensure that the desired ratio of fluid diluent to liquid coating composition is maintained in the formulation which is supplied to coating dispensers for deposition onto a substrate.

摘要： A method and apparatus for forming and dispensing a coating material formulation containing a liquid coating composition and a supercritical fluid as a diluent comprises a closed vessel having a hollow interior; a system for supplying fluid diluent into the vessel interior and for transforming the fluid diluent into supercritical fluid within the vessel; and, a system for introducing liquid coating composition into the vessel interior in such a way that it is sufficiently exposed to the supercritical fluid to form a fluid diluent rich phase and a liquid coating composition or resin rich phase which is saturated with supercritical fluid up to or near its saturation point for the temperature and pressure conditions within the vessel. The resin rich phase has a higher density than the fluid diluent rich phase and therefore collects on the bottom of the vessel from where it is withdrawn and supplied to coating dispensers for deposition on a substrate. The coating material formulation which is not discharged from the dispensers is preferably recirculated back into the closed vessel in such a way that it is permitted to absorb sufficient supercritical fluid to return to the saturation point.

摘要： A device for measuring the ability of a human operator to stabilize an inherently unstable system so as to maintain an output signal on a display terminal within a preset limit. The difficulty is automatically increased at a relatively fast rate until the human operator approaches the limits of his ability to maintain the output signal within the limits. The difficulty is then increased at a relatively slow rate until the human operator is no longer able to maintain the output of the testing device within preselected limits. The device is mechanized using a general purpose microprocessor and utilizes binary shifts rather than multiplication or division operations in order to achieve real time operation at a sufficiently fast rate in order to test the limits of human ability. The device also provides for the measurement of the ability of the human operator after an adaptation or training period by maintaining the instability of the system at a predetermined level while monitoring and measuring the number of times that the human operator loses control of the output signal during a predetermined period of testing and by measuring and monitoring the period of time that elapses before the first loss of such control. The computational procedure utilized in the device includes provisions for avoiding a flickering effect that otherwise would appear on the display terminal.

摘要： A device for aiding and encouraging a child to brush his or her teeth regularly. The device is provided with a pair of nonrotatable shafts each of which mounts seven rotatable blocks shaped like a molar tooth, each block representing either the morning or night of a particularly day during which a child should brush his teeth. The front surface faces of the blocks form a frowning mouth with dirty teeth, while the rear surface faces form a pattern of a smiling mouth with white teeth after all of the blocks have been rotated 180 degrees. Each block is rotated to expose a portion of the smile and to remove a portion of the frown after each tooth brushing in the morning and evening of each day.

摘要： A foam generating nozzle is provided for converting a liquid containing a gas maintained under pressure in solution in the liquid, to a foam for application to a substrate. Complete foaming of the solution is accomplished prior to discharge from the nozzle. This assures in some applications complete atomization before contact with the substance to be coated.

摘要： An engine comprises a pair of members, such as a pair of adjacent cylinder heads, having a common passageway formed therein to communicate a coolant therethrough. An annular seal assembly is disposed between the members to provide a static seal preventing the egress of coolant thereby. The seal assembly comprises an annular ferrule having an annular elastomeric seal disposed circumferentially thereabout. A V-shaped groove is formed circumferentially on the periphery of the seal to seat a like-shaped portion of the ferrule therein. A strap-type clamp circumferentially surrounds the seal to apply a clamping force thereon to wedge the ferrule into the V-shaped groove of the seal to expand sidewalls of the seal into sealing contact with the members.
