摘要： An ambient pressure lamp for automobiles and related conveyances includes a parabolic reflector having an inner reflective surface, an outer surface, a base portion and an outer peripheral edge wherein the base portion includes a centrally located clearance aperture for receipt of a lamp filament socket. The reflector member is enclosed by a lens member which as a stepped inner surface and a surrounding lip portion which is sealingly attached to the outer peripheral edge of the reflector member in order to define an inner chamber wherein a lamp filament is positioned. An expandable membrane is sealingly joined around the outer surface of the reflector member and around the lamp filament socket so as to define an expansion chamber between the outer surface and the membrane. This expansion chamber is completely enclosed except for being in flow communication with the inner chamber so that as pressure increases result due to the heating of the filament and heating of the internal atmosphere within the inner chamber, the expandable membrane stretches outwardly in order to provide an increased volume so that the internal pressure within the lamp remains at an ambient level regardless of the operating status of the lamp. The lamp filament socket includes purge and fill passageways so that the inner chamber and the expansion chamber can be purged of all oxygen and moisture and filled with an inert gas mixture.

摘要： A die-casting apparatus for the die-casting of metal into a specific part shape includes a pair of die-cast mold portions which are movable relative to one another and which define a die-mold cavity therebetween. The mold portions are initially separated so as to provide a venting gap and further include a communicating passageway between the die-mold cavity and the shot tube for the apparatus. The shot tube includes a metal inlet port and a cooperating plunger which is suitably designed and arranged to push the molten metal into the die-mold cavity. The shot tube is also fitted with gas inlets which are coupled to a supply of oxygen and a supply of combustion gas whereby an ignited flame may be injected into the shot tube. With the flame injected into the shot tube, the metal introduced and the inlet cover closed, the presence of the ignited flame increases the temperature not only of the air that is present within the shot tube and between the mold portions including the cavity, but the flame also contributes to a temperature elevation of the mold portions and the shot tube. The effect of this added temperature is to expand the volume of air which is trapped within the cavity thus reducing the actual amount of air. Under a somewhat constant pressure condition, the elevation in temperature results in a significant increase in the volume, thus reducing the amount of gas which is able to be trapped within the die-cast part.

摘要翻译： 用于将金属压铸成特定部件形状的压铸装置包括可相对于彼此移动并且在其间限定模具腔的一对压铸模具部分。 模具部分最初被分离以提供排气间隙，并且还包括在模具模腔和用于该装置的喷射管之间的连通通道。 喷射管包括金属入口和配合的柱塞，其被适当地设计和布置成将熔融金属推入模具腔。 喷射管还配有气体入口，气体入口与氧气供应和燃烧气体供应相结合，由此可将点燃的火焰喷射到喷射管中。 随着火焰喷射到喷射管中，引入的金属和入口盖关闭，点燃火焰的存在不仅增加了喷射管内部和包括空腔的模具部分之间的空气的温度，而且 火焰还有助于模具部分和射出管的温度升高。 这种添加温度的作用是扩大空气中被捕获的空气的体积，从而减少实际的空气量。 在有些恒定的压力条件下，温度升高导致体积的显着增加，从而减少能够被压在压铸部件内的气体的量。

摘要： A windshield wiper assembly providing improved wiping characteristics. The wiper assembly includes a wiper arm, a superstructure, and a flexible wiper insert received within the superstructure. The wiper insert includes a flexible elongate beam received within the superstructure at both ends and which serves to uniformly distribute the force transmitted by the superstructure from the wiper arm along the length of a flexible wiper strip which forms a part for the wiper insert. In its unflexed configuration, the elongate beam is characterized by a first surface which is elliptically curved convexly along the length of the beam and a second oppositely disposed surface which is flat. When the elliptically curved surface is flexed due to the application of a force from the superstructure at each end of the beam the force is equally distributed along the length of the beam.

摘要： A ball valve operable between a fully-open position and a closed position for regulating fluid flow includes a valve body machined and arranged with a flow passageway extending completely therethrough and receiving at each end a fluid fitting for coupling to flow lines. Disposed within the interior of the valve body is a ball plug member which is supported below by a stem and needle bearing arrangement and is operable to be turned 90 degrees by a handle, stem and bonnet arrangement. The internal position of the ball plug member is maintained by a pair of ball seats which are centrally disposed within the flow passageway and are held in position by means of adapter cylinders which are in turn held in position by retainer plates. In order to maintain spring-loaded pressure and to provide a sealed interface between the ball seat and the adapter cylinder, spring seal assemblies are disposed within the adapter cylinder and between the ball seat and corresponding retainer plate. These spring seal assemblies each include an annular seal portion arranged to fit in the corner intersection of the ball seat and adapter cylinder, a conical positioning ring, a back-up ring and a Belleville washer which is in turn backed up by the corresponding retaining plate.

摘要： A rear-view mirror mounting apparatus for attaching a rear-view mirror to a windshield includes a substantially flat, receiving member and a hollow, inserting member which is slidably received within the receiving member. The receiving member includes a tapered, dovetail-like receiving channel which is symmetrical about the longitudinal centerline of the receiving member. The inserting member is contoured at one end with a spherical element suitable for receipt by a pivot mechanism or similar interconnection means and the opposite end is contoured with a flared, conical shape. The bottom edge of this flared, conical shape includes a leading edge portion, a trailing edge portion and two side edge portions. The two side edge portions are disposed in a first plane and the leading and trailing edge portions are disposed in a second geometric plane parallel to the first, the two side portions are suitably sized and spaced so as to fit beneath the undercut side edges of the receiving channel. Thus, as this inserting member is advanced downwardly in the direction of narrowing taper, the two side edge portions as well as the leading and trailing edge portions make contact with the receiving member at four primary points of contact interference which are approximately 90 degrees apart.

摘要： A windshield wiping insert for windshields, windows, and the like includes an intermediate, elongated, formed metal strip which provides the interface between the superstructure of the windshield wiper and the flexible wiping member which is placed in direct contact with the window surface to be wiped or cleaned. This intermediate support strip includes a pair of outwardly extending flanges which are adapted to be slidably received by the particular super structure and between these flanges is a center channel wherein a portion of the flexible wiping member is clamped and securely retained. Another portion of the flexible wiping member protrudes downwardly beyond the lower surface of the intermediate support strip and terminates in an enlarged quadrant shaped portion which is configured with two edges and a convex curved surface therebetween. With movement of the windshield wiper assembly, this enlarged portion flexes first in one direction then in another and the amount of flexing or bending is controlled so as to present one edge or the other edge in contact with the windshield surface so that a scraping action occurs as the windshield wiper moves across the window. The intermediate support strip is initially formed with a convex shape in its length dimension in order to provide improved force distribution along the wiping edge of the windshield wiper.
