Abstract: A method is provided for removing metal oxide debris from various types of surfaces, both metallic and nonmetallic. Specifically, the surface to be cleaned is treated (preferably by immersion) with a preheated solution of 65 to 71 wt % (55.3 to 62.0 vol %) nitric acid, which is roughly equivalent to reagent grade nitric acid. The temperature of the solution is within the range of about 160.degree. to 175.degree. F. (71.degree. to 79.degree. C.). The preheated solution dissolves any metal oxide debris present on the surface, which may then be rinsed away following treatment. The method effects the removal of metal oxide residue from surfaces without further degrading the surfaces being cleaned. Further, the method is capable of cleaning internal surfaces of components without requiring disassembly of sealed or welded components, since all that is needed to effect cleaning is contact between the surface to be cleaned and the preheated solution. Finally, the method is easily implemented since it involves only the simple steps of contacting the component with a single preheated component that is widely available, namely reagent grade nitric acid, followed by rinsing and drying.

Abstract translation: 提供了用于从金属和非金属的各种类型的表面去除金属氧化物碎片的方法。 具体地说，用65〜71重量％（55.3〜62.0体积％）硝酸的预热溶液处理（优选浸渍）表面，其大致等于试剂级硝酸。 溶液的温度在约160°至175°F（71°至79℃）的范围内。 预热的溶液溶解存在于表面上的任何金属氧化物碎片，然后可以在处理之后将其清洗掉。 该方法可以有效地从表面除去金属氧化物残留物，而不会进一步降解被清洁的表面。 此外，该方法能够清洁部件的内部表面，而不需要拆卸密封或焊接部件，因为实现清洁所需的全部是待清洁表面和预热溶液之间的接触。 最后，该方法很容易实现，因为它仅涉及将组分与广泛可用的单一预热组分接触的简单步骤，即试剂级硝酸，然后漂洗和干燥。

Abstract: In a first embodiment, a stop having a plurality of ports is connected to and covers an end of a bent rectangular sleeve. In a region near the stop, a narrow wall of the sleeve also has a plurality of ports. The sleeve includes at each bend a pair of oppositely disposed openings, a driven roller, a drive roller cooperating with the driven roller to provide a nip in the sleeve, and a pair of shrouds covering the rollers and openings. A nozzle coupled to a pump provides a flow of air into the other end of the sleeve and the air exits through the ports. With this arrangement, a rectangular sheet inserted into said other end of the sleeve is fluidly brought into registration with the narrow wall and stop, the rollers assisting movement of the sheets through the bends. In a second embodiment, similar to the first, the narrow wall and stop include internal projections against which an inserted sheet is registered. In a third embodiment, similar to the first, a manifold is coupled to the ports and a vacuum pump is coupled to the manifold to accelerate registration. In a fourth embodiment, similar to the third, the pumps are replaced with a reversible pump to register and discharge a sheet.

Abstract: An inverter for turning a sheet over and reversing the lead and trail edges of the sheet includes a disc stacker that works in conjunction with a vacuum transport. A sheet transported from a source is captured lead edge first by fingers or in a slot of the disc stacker which is rotating in a first direction. A vacuum transport is positioned adjacent the disc stacker and draws the sheet away from the disc stacker at a predetermined point and transports the sheet in a second direction opposite to the first direction trail edge first for further processing.

A handle is rotatably mounted on the support member to rotate the drum to selectively reel-in or reel-out the towline, via a stepped-down gear set. A plurality of slots are formed in the drum whereby floats secured on the towline may be positioned exteriorly of the drum in non-interfering relationship with the towline which is wrapped on the drum. A release mechanism is provided for permitting the gear set to free-wheel to troll out the towline. Two embodiments of the invention are disclosed herein with one of the embodiments (FIGS. 7-11) including a mounting bracket for vertical or horizontal securance to the hull of the boat and a support bracket attachable to the mounting bracket and having the winch assembly proper mounted thereon.
