  • Linear rolling bearing
    Patent number: 6808309
    Abstract: A linear rolling bearing has a guide carriage (1) that is U-shaped in cross-section and has two U-legs (6). The guide carriage (1) is slidably supported through balls (3) on two longitudinal sides of a guide rail (2). Each U-leg (6) comprises on an inner surface opposing the guide rail (2) a ground raceway (10) for the balls (3). The raceway (10) is made by a grinding wheel whose diameter is larger than the diagonal dimension of the carriage cavity (7). According to the invention, a stop surface (12) having a retaining contour for a guide member (4) containing the balls (3) is configured on a guide rail-distal outer surface of each U-leg (6) of the guide carriage (1), and the raceway (10) on one of the two U-legs (6) and the stop surface (12) having the retaining contour on the other of the two U-legs (6) are made in common in one work step by the grinding wheel.

  • Portable scent delivery system
    Patent number: 6803987
    Abstract: A portable device is disclosed which can deliver various combinations of scents in rapid succession directly to a user's nose. The device uses a blower fan (2) which forces air through a fragrance chamber (4). The flow into the chamber is regulated by an inlet valve (5) and an outlet valve (6). The valves (5,6) can be manually, electrically or pneumatically actuated. The valves (5,6) can be of an on/off or proportional flow type. The air carries away the scent molecules which have entered the gas phase. This air is then mixed with the air from all other fragrance holders in the packed bed mixer (11). The final mixture is delivered to the user via nasal tubing (20) and is emitted right below the wearer's nose. A mask covering the nose can be used to deliver the scent to the user. The scent is then drawn away from the nose and into a scent scrubber (38).
