  • Publication number: 20150369578
    Abstract: A case to hold spare ammunition magazines for a machine pistol. The case includes a pocket dimensioned to accommodate at least two magazines with the left side of one facing the right side of the other, and with the flange end of each protruding from the pocket. The case has a first strap that can be closed to cover the protruding flange end of the first magazine, and a second strap than can be closed to cover the protruding flange end of the second magazine. The second strap has a set back portion of its inner edge such that when the first strap is opened, the second strap allows greater access to the protruding end of the first magazine. The case also has a divider that separates the pocket into two portions, one to accommodate each magazine, and that provides a gap between the protruding ends of the magazines.

  • Patent number: 4600637
    Abstract: A liquid mixture containing a heat-expandable resin and a catalyst is cast onto a lower facing, which is heated from below to cause expansion of the mixture and hardening of its lower part. The upper surface of the expanding mixture is covered with an upper facing applied while that portion is still soft, and the composite formed thereby is introduced to a heated enclosure while the upper part remains soft. The thickness of the formed composite, and panels derived thereof, is calibrated or limited by opposed conveyors within said thermal enclosure, which limits the maximum expansion to a value less than the theoretical potential expansion of the foam, allowing hardening to be completed, and subsequent cutting of the composite into panels.

  • Patent number: 4183832
    Abstract: An etherified melamine-formaldehyde resin is disclosed that has prolonged shelf life, comparatively low free formaldehyde content, and is especially adapted as a binder for glass fiber mats. The melamine-formaldehyde resin is prepared in several distinct stages including condensation in a basic aqueous solution, etherification by cooling and acidification, neutralization with triethanolamine, and final stabilization. The free formaldehyde content of the resin so produced can be adjusted by reacting it with urea.
