Abstract: A fluid flow control valve includes a housing having a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, which define a flowpath therebetween. Within the housing is a chamber located in the flowpath between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. A valve member is mounted within the chamber from movement between an open position, allowing for flow along the flowpath, and a closed position, which prevents such flow. The valve member is biassed to the open position. The fluid control valve further includes a device for regulating fluid pressure to enable the fluid pressure to be set on the inlet side of the valve member.

Abstract: In a gambling game a collateral gambling game which can be won by players on at least one specific event occurring in the principal game, the collateral game being separate from the principal game but one when any of the possible winning events occur in the principal game, the payment to the player being calculated from the total value available for the game divided by the total number of players who bet on the specific winning event. The game gives a possibility for a large number of players to share in the success of a single player who has successfully won the main game. It may be used with various types of games including those using electronic gaming machines.

Abstract: A temperature dependent resistive component (10) has two supports (12, 14) attached to its respective opposite faces, each support having at least one projecting leg which terminates in a contact pad (13 or 14), the contact pads of the two supports (12, 14) lying in a common plane spaced from the component (10), for mounting the component to a substrate. Each support may comprise a wire bonded to the respective face of the component, or a piece of sheet material bent to channel-section and bonded via its edges to the face of the component. The common plane, in which the contact pads lie, may be parallel to but spaced from one face of the component, or perpendicular to the opposite faces of the component and spaced from its edge.
