Abstract: Grinding machine for bearing races and the like in which a grinding plane extending transversely of the race axis is adjusted axially in accordance with variations in the end-to-end dimension of the race to provide a symmetrical track or groove of controlled width.
Abstract: Signal device for providing machine-readable indicia on an object, the device allowing the form of the indicia to be deliberately changed, but not accidentally. Reflective indicating means are slidable in a series of parallel tracks. Magnetic attraction between the track and the indicating means cause the indicating means to engage detents in the track and remain in selected locations.
Abstract: Baffle formed with a plurality of molded elastomeric plates within a housing for lining the interior of sound-absorbing ventilators, each plate having a central aperture and grooves in the broad sides of the plates which extend from the aperture to the edge of the plate; the apertures form a channel when the plates are stacked within the housing and the grooves form canals from the channel to the outside of the stacked plates.
Abstract: Process and apparatus for the liquid treatment of a surface by projecting sponge-like elements. The said elements are metered seriation from a hopper in a controlled positive manner by a paddle-wheel means.
Abstract: Material handling apparatus, including a bucket and a clamp arm mounted on the bucket, the clamp arm being movable from an operative position, where it cooperates with the operative edge of the bucket in handling material, to a storage position where it is located outside of the bucket.
Abstract: Apparatus for the transportation of coiled hot rolled strip, especially non-ferrous metal coils, such as aluminum coils, in a cold rolling mill, including an intermediate storage space at a cold rolling train, at the annealing facilities following cold rolling, and at further treatment installations.
Abstract: An anti-theft lock for use in automobile ignition systems having an ignition switch and a coil, the lock having a secondary switch, a flexible armoured tube surrounding electrical leads between the secondary switch and the coil, and an armour cap mounted on the coil. This arrangement makes it very difficult to obtain access to the ignition system for jumping the ignition to steal the automobile.
Abstract: A grinding machine in which the grinding cycle is controlled by a stepping motor which receives pulses from a linear feed-controlled generator and which is operative to give an adjustable diamond clearance.
Abstract: Apparatus and method for reducing flutter noise in a frequency-modulated data stream, wherein the data stream is combined with a reference stream which has been modified by the fed-back result of the combination. Before combination, the data stream is transformed into a first rectangular-pulse stream in which amplitude is constant and frequency is dependent on the frequency of modulation of the data stream, whereas the reference stream is transformed into a second rectangular pulse stream of amplitude which is dependent on the fed-back result of the combination of the streams, and the frequency is dependent on the frequency of modulation of the reference stream.
Abstract: Ski binding for use with cross-country skis, having a stamped sheet metal main plate with integral boot pins and a hinged wire clamping bail.
Abstract: Nozzle having a housing with a cylindrical inner surface and with a fixed wall extending at a right angle to its axis. A movable wall is mounted in the housing adjacent the fixed wall and is rotatable about the axis, so that a pattern of apertures in the movable wall match similar apertures in the fixed wall to control flow of fluid therethrough.
Abstract: A sound-absorbing panel having a front and a rear sheet, the front sheet being corrugated and perforated; a filler of particles of elastic material lies between the sheets.
Abstract: Machine for bending sheet metal, consisting of an upper and a lower clamp plate for holding the sheet metal and a bending plate which is swingable about an axis located between the clamp plates for forming the sheet metal.
Abstract: A tool for setting blind hollow rivets which include a mandrel to be pulled from the accessible side of work to set the rivet on the blind side. The tool includes a body, a pulling device movable relative to the body, a pair of actuating levers pivoted to the body, and linkage means connected to each of the levers and connected at a single point to the pulling device.
Abstract: A skip rope has handles each having a bore at one end in which is inserted a tubular housing having top and bottom inwardly-extending flanges and a top outwardly-extending flange located in the same plane as the top inwardly-extending flange which forms a stop when the housing is inserted in the handle. A bearing locked within the top and bottom inwardly-extending flanges has an outer race locked against rotation and an inner race separated from the outer race by anti-friction elements. The inner race has a central bore and is elongated with respect to the outer race and protrudes externally of the housing and handle. Each end of the skip rope runs through the bore of the inner race of a handle and is held in place by an enlargement at its inner end.
