Abstract: This valve uses a rotatable balancing chamber to control the waterflow into the balancing chamber. A pair of exit ports on the rotatable balancing chamber are in communication with the balancing chambers on either side of a diaphragm equipped shuttle to control the outlet mixture of hot and cold water. The diaphragm equipped shuttle responds to changes in pressure in the respective balance chambers to throttle the water through the valve in response to changes in inlet pressures. The pressure balancing chambers are isolated from the water supplies feeding the valve when the valve is in the “off” position, and the pressure balancing chambers are pre-pressurized before any water is permitted to exit from the valve.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing Simvastatin is provided comprising reacting lovastatin with an organic boronic acid to produce a derivative of lovastatin (lovastatin phenylboronate) methylating the 2-methylbutyryloxy group on the lovastatin derivative to form a 2,2-dimethylbutyryloxy group on the lovastatin derivative and thereafter removing the boronate group to produce simvastatin.

Abstract: A system of connectors for use in temporary structures to connect the bracing members of open lattice towers and trusses to the legs of towers and chords of trusses and space frames. A connector is permanently fitted to each end of all bracing members. The connector is configured to engage a cylinder (or projection) that is integral to the leg (or chord as the case may be). After one end is engaged on a cylinder (projection) the member is rotated about the engaged end until the connector on the opposing end of the member engages a corresponding cylinder (projection) on the opposed leg or chord. Installation of the next member using the method as described permanently locks the previously installed member in place such that it can not be removed until the member that was installed after it is removed. The assembly sequence is therefore fixed and begins at the bottom of a tower leg or one end of a truss chord. Disassembly requires following a sequence that is exactly the reverse of the assembly sequence.

Abstract: This invention provides a safety mechanism for a winch assembly when storing a load, such as a tire under a vehicle or a boat on a trailer, in a raised or stored position. The invention finds particular application to a spare tire, but those skilled in the art will appreciate the broader benefits of such a structure when used with a winch assembly for other uses such as a boat winch for a trailer or any analogous use wherein it is desirable to secure a load in the raised or stored position. A unique actuator is described with an improvement of the invention, which includes a control path therewith to control a rod end and thereby actuates in a preferred embodiment a latch by converting rotary motion to linear motion.
