Abstract: A comfort combination chair comprising a seating portion positionable in an essentially horizontal plane; a plurality of legs extending downwardly from the four corners of the seating area and secured at their upper ends to the lower surface of the seating portion and having at their lower ends four wheels in a rectangular configuration with axles for the rotation of the wheels; a housing secured to the upper extents of the legs and secured immediately beneath the lower surface of the seating area, the housing area having a door with hinges rotatable about a vertical axis to allow the door to be opened and closed for the storage of components; a pair of arm rests located above the upper surface of the seating area adjacent to the side edges thereof, the arm rests having a horizontal surface with padding for the receipt of the arms of a user and having downwardly extending vertical supports; a back support having a rectangular configuration, the lower edge of the back support being rotatably coupled to the rea

Abstract: A method and apparatus for tire uniformity correction. During a sensing phase, the tire to be corrected is rotated at a speed higher than the industry standard of 60 revolutions per minute while sensing the force variations to be removed. During a rubber removal phase, the tire is rotated at a slower speed tire while removing rubber in selected amounts from selected areas of the tire corresponding force variations. Frequency modified electrical signals are generated in response to the sensed force variations in the tire during the sensing phase, such signals being at frequencies higher than the industry standard of 60 cycles per minute. Such frequency modified signals are then filtered in summer amplifiers, processed and stored in a microprocessor and then utilized for the removal of rubber in a programmed manner.

Abstract: A high performance passenger tire features improved bead assemblies. The bead assemblies include a split ply formed of two short insert plies of rubberized steel cords bent around the bead cores with their inside ends extending radially outwardly from the bead cores a distance greater than the distance from their outside ends to the bead cores. The cords of the insert plies form low angles with respect to the circumferential center line of said tire. The bead assemblies have extended utility when utilized in high performance belted radial pneumatic tires.
