Abstract: A wrench extension tool having a gear train of intermeshing idler gears contained within an inner housing formed of two (2) curved and substantially parallel plates. Aligned pairs of bores are provided through the parallel plates providing residence for axle pins about which the idler gears rotate. At each end of the wrench extension tool is a socket opening in which there resides an end gear. Each end gear includes a journal portion extending therefrom with the socket opening serving as bearings for such journals. Each end gear includes a hexagonal socket receptacle into which interchangeable driven and drive sockets can be inserted by a user. A locking mechanism is provided to retain the chosen drive and driven sockets in the socket receptacles. In such manner, a relatively narrow wrench extension tool is provided where either end of the wrench extension tool can serve as the driven end and either end can serve as the drive end.

Abstract: A method for sealing the open end of two compartment containers which are filled through an opening in the lower terminal end of each compartment. The method consists of placing a steel platen between the compartments at the lower end terminal edges of each compartment so that the terminal edges confront the opposing side faces of the platen. The lower terminal edges are then heated and a pair of dies are activated towards and away from one another to apply pressure to the lower terminal edges to seal the edges against the platen.

Abstract: A process for therapeutic treatment of changes in human or animal bones which cause a boundary surface gap with a width of less than 5 millimeters to form between the bone and an acoustically reflective body such as an implant, a tooth or a bone fragment. The process include a first step of locating the desired boundary surface gap by means of a locating device; next the body of the patient is exposed to acoustical shock waves through the surface of the skin after focusing the shock waves on the boundary surface gap. Vibrations are generated in the bone surfaces, the surfaces of the acoustically reflecting body, and at the gap by multiple reflections of the generated shock waves. The preferred device for carrying out the process uses a therapy head to generate and focus acoustic shock waves in a predetermined direction. The shock waves are conducted through the surface of the skin into the body of the patient by a coupling unit.

Abstract: A system for preloading the bearing of a cooling water pump for motor vehicles. The pump comprises a shaft and an impeller mounted on one end of the shaft and, an outer bearing ring surrounding the shaft. An axial face seal is mounted on one projecting end of the shaft operable bearing ring and to tension spring-loaded sliding rings with a predetermined contact pressure against each other. The outer axial end face of the axial face seal is aligned with the axial end face of the shaft to simplify and insert the same preloading of the bearing for assemblies put together by mass production techniques.

Abstract: A support and conveying roller and system utilizing the same for supporting and conveying a workpiece such that the workpiece is maintained in a substantially horizontal plane even though the workpiece includes members projecting therefrom toward the support roller. The support and conveying roller includes an axle with a mandrel mounted thereon such that the mandrel is capable of rotational movement about the axle and lateral movement along the axle. There is a brush helicaly wound about the mandrel and attached only at the ends thereof such that individual coils of the brush are capable of movement relative to adjacent coils of that same brush. The brush has a fiber density sufficient to generally support the workpiece in the substantially horizontal working plane while simultaneously allowing the portions of the workpiece extending angularly from the bottom surface of the workpiece to infiltrate between the fibers.

Abstract: A syringe device for use with two components to be combined prior to discharge, comprising a syringe body without the proximal end, a syringe plunger rod threadedly engageable into a plunger and a lined seal for engagement with a needle hub. The syringe body has at the distal end a radially inwardly directed internal sealing ring dividing the body to define a distal chamber and a proximal chamber. Also provided is an internal bypass stopper sized to fit the syringe body and engage the sealing ring to sealingly separate the distal chamber and the proximal chamber. The stopper has a plurality of projections circumferentially spaced thereon for engagement with the syringe body on at least one side of the sealing ring. The projections define by-pass channels therebetween to permit flow of liquid from the proximal chamber to the distal chamber upon movement of the stopper toward the distal end.

Abstract: Armrests for chairs which are laterally and vertically adjustable.

Abstract: An air cleaner composition comprising a fragranced material and water formed into a solid material by add mixing a solid soap in an amount sufficient to produce a solid having a melting point of at least 110.degree. F.

Abstract: A novel composition, a kit for providing that composition, and method of treatment is disclosed. The composition comprises aqueous hydroxyacid, hydroxy ether, surfactant, and alkali hydroxide. In a preferred aspect, the composition comprises aqueous hydroxyacetic acid, dipropylene glycol-methyl ether, a surfactant blend of 9M tridecyl alcohol and poly`oxy-1,2-ethanediyl`, alpha-`nonylphenyl`-omega-hydroxy-surfactant, and aqueous sodium hydroxide.

Abstract: A pillow block assembly comprising a hollow housing having axially spaced end walls, an opening in at least one end wall for a rotable shaft member, a bearing in the housing to rotatably support the shaft member in the housing and a seal in the wall of the housing defining said opening including a labyrinth seal member mounted on the shaft, and first and second resilient sealing members disposed between the labyrinth seal member and the housings and between the shaft and the labyrinth seal member, respectively.

Abstract: A unitary cap and collar construction for a bottle feeder having a nipple cap secured to a detachable collar which comprises a nipple, a single, flexible, integral tether line of sufficient length for an infant to feed from the nipple having one end engaged to a detachable collar having an opening for holding the feeder nipple which the collar is detachably connected to the bottle, and having an opposite end engaged to the cap for covering the nipple.

Abstract: A stable condition for surfaces, comprising a stable emulsion containing at least about 25% linseed oil and no more than about 75% water, the percentages being based on the total weight of the conditioner. The conditioner includes a water soluble emulsifier in an amount sufficient to emulsify all of the linseed oil in the water.

Abstract: A laterally adjustable armrest for a chair comprising a support mounting plate attachable to a support that is adapted to be on the chair and an armrest mounting plate provided with pivot mechanisms whereby the armrest mounting plate is permitted lateral movement in respect of the support mounting plate.

Abstract: In a device for detecting the rotational speed of a motor vehicle wheel, a sensor and a sensor bracket. The bracket is mounted on a non-rotating part of the vehicle chassis such as an axle journal. The sensor bracket (1) has a tubular socket for the sensor (13) with a locking clip (3), which can be flipped open around a hinge (4), and a latching element (8, 9), which holds the locking clip (3) in a closed position.

Abstract: The device for connecting bearing rings with ring-shaped grooves is machined into the peripheral surfaces. An essentially sleeve-shaped connecting element engages in these grooves, where flange-shaped retaining projections on the connecting element cooperate with conical clamping surfaces of the ring-shaped grooves, which are characterized by ring-shaped grooves formed in the ring-shaped undercut. These grooves have positive-locking surfaces oriented toward its interior and snap-lock elements are arranged in a ring on the retaining projections to grip behind the positive-locking surfaces.

Abstract: Bearing design for the drive gear and the pump impeller of a cooling water pump for motor vehicles, with a shaft, which is installed so that it can rotate by means of two rows of balls in an outer bearing ring, and which projects on both sides beyond the outer bearing ring, characterized in that the shaft (12) is produced by the extrusion method and has a wall (20) separating chambers or compartments extending inwardly from opposing ends of the shaft, the wall is located on the drive side outside the rows of balls (24).
