摘要:
An arrangement of envelope packages, the arrangement including a plurality of discreet envelope packages, each package including a plurality of generally aligned envelopes which are compressed together. The plurality of envelope packages are arranged in a first row and a second row located above the first row in a vertical direction thereof. At least one envelope package of the first row is oriented generally perpendicular to at least one envelope package of the second row.

The Distributed Gaming System provides a user with remote location gaming, for example from within a hotel room. Using the room's television and a remote control, the user, such as a hotel guest, is able to play games similar to those available on a Video Lottery Terminal. The games are displayed on a TV through the use of a TV set-top box. The set top box connects the TV to a network of computer systems through which the Gaming System is distributed and managed. Game access is obtained using a payment swipe device. A special feature of system is the progressive jackpots that are available to game players; these jackpots are at the hotel, jurisdiction, and global levels.

A drill bit for use in concentrically arranged dual drill strings. The bit has an outlet eccentrically arranged respective to its longitudinal axial centerline, and a formation engaging surface made of a plurality of spiraling faces which diminish in area as the cutting face curves about and toward the outlet. The area located between the spiraling faces form fluid conveying passageways through which a jet of fluid is directed toward the outlet, thereby carrying therewith cuttings formed by the spiral faces of the bit.

Flame hardening method and apparatus for tempering gear teeth and the like which comprises quench means for rapidly cooling selected ones of the gear teeth to a temperature which avoids the formation of decomposition products, and a heat source spaced from the quench means for raising the temperature of selected ones of the gear teeth to a value which promotes the formation of an austenitic structure.Mount means rotatably support the gear with selected ones of the circumferentially extending teeth being placed in heat transfer relationship with the heat source and the quench.Index means rotate the gear an amount which moves one gear tooth from the heat source to the quench means in a manner whereby all of the teeth of the gear must be treated one time before any tooth can be treated a second time.
