摘要:
A stable rice product is disclosed which is acid-pasteurized. The rice is treated with a polymeric food acceptable acid to a pH of 4.5 and lacks an acid flavor. Alginic acid, pectic acid, carageenic acid and carboxymethylcellulose acid are indicated to be suitable acids.
摘要:
A voltage indicator and a method for its use in detecting and indicating the presence of single-phase AC voltage in an electrical power cord. The voltage indicator includes an electronic display, capacitor plate elements connected electrically to the electronic display so as to couple the voltage indicator capacitively to the electrical power cord when alternating current voltage is present, and diodes that act as a rectifier, between one of the capacitor plate elements and the electronic display device. Capacitive coupling develops electrical current through the voltage indicator and energizes the display device when alternating line current voltage is present in the power cord. The voltage indicator is electrically insulated from the power cord it monitors by the usual insulation on the power cord or cable.

摘要:
A composite material comprising a multitude of masses and fibers supported on a flexible substrate arranged in a manner to absorb energy from a ballistic projectile and thereby protect persons or property from ballistic injury or damage. An array of small, tough disc-like masses are suspended in a three dimensional cradle of high-tensile elastomeric fibers such that energy from an incoming ballistic projectile is first imparted to one or more masses and the motion of the masses are restrained by tensile strain of elastomeric fibers substantially in the direction of travel of the incoming projectile. The projectile is eventually decelerated to harmless velocity through a combination of transfer of momentum to the masses and the elastic and plastic tensile deformation of the fibers. One or more layers of the composite material can be assembled to form body protective armor (“bullet-proof vest”) or property protective armor, the number and characteristics of the layers being adjusted according to the specific ballistic threat anticipated.
