Abstract: Telephone apparatus for installation at a subscriber station to enable call forward operation as used in combination with the standard subscriber facilities. The unit includes ring detection and call forward programming circuitry. The call forward programming circuitry includes apparatus connected to the subscriber line and effective to dial a call forwarding access code and designated forwarding telephone number from a programmable storage. The ring detection circuitry provides for automatic actuation of the call forward program unit in the event of failure to actuate or energize manually.

Abstract: A display tray for ring jewelry wherein a plurality of parallel bars each having normally extending ring posts are selectively positionable to enable captive retention of rings placed on the ring posts as the free post ends are locked in abutment to a next adjacent bar.

Abstract: An improved portable livestock spraying apparatus which includes a chute structure and adjustable guidance structure for directing different sizes of animals through the chute in the presence of surrounding spray coverage of selected medicinal solution. The apparatus includes floor structure for solution filtration which effects three-stage filtering of coarse, fines and final fluid output for recycling to the spray head apparatus.

Abstract: Micro-optical tomography is a technique for more fully utilizing the information conveyed by light in microscopy. This is accomplished with an objective lens imaging on a two-dimensional sensor, by scanning a parameter affecting the phase and amplitude of the reconstruction of the wavefront by the lens, such as focus, to form, with the scanned parameter as an axis, a higher dimensional image matrix, and operating on that image matrix with computer-aided image processing to extract information not visible in the fixed optical reconstruction of conventional microscopy. The reconstruction can form an optical dissection of a specimen, or an image of a dimensional object with all planes in focus simultaneously.

Abstract: Apparatus for permanent affixure to a drilling mast raising line for indicating the condition of the mast raising line at selected intervals. Monitor sleeves are swaged to the mast raising line at a specified separation distance X when the line is new, and thereafter repeated measurements of the separation distance can be made to determine an approach to the elastic limits of the line whereupon the mast raising line should be retired from service.

Abstract: A device for dispensing loose, fibrous material comprising a housing having a reservoir disposed therein for containing the loose fibrous material to be dispensed. The housing has a passageway which extends from the reservoir through which the material is dispensed. At least one auger disc is rotatably mounted in the reservoir approximately adjacent the passageway. A motor or the like is provided to rotate the auger disc such that insulation material encountered by the auger disc is urged toward the passageway. Preferably a bar extends across the reservoir and is spaced from the edge of the auger disc such that as the auger disc rotatingly encounters the fibrous material the bar presents an obstacle to the material which is carried by the auger disc. A centrifugal pump is connected to the passageway by the auger disc. The suction inlet which is connected to the passageway is preferably offset from the center of the housing.

Abstract: A method for formation of thin film inductive magnetic transducers wherein a minimum number of basic photomasks are utilized for deposition of successive thin film winding layers, and wherein all odd-to-even inter-film electrical contact points are disposed in a first transverse alignment through the transducer, and all even-to-odd inter-film contacts are aligned in a second transverse alignment through the transducer that is closely adjacent the first transverse alignment.

Abstract: An apparatus for automatically controlling a watering system in response to a comparison of an ambient condition with a time-varying reference level having an adjustable maximum value is disclosed. The invention includes an electrical circuit for monitoring and sensing the magnitude of the ambient condition and for converting the sensed magnitude into a proportional electrical signal. The invention further includes a first timer circuit for generating a triggering signal when the time-varying reference level exceeds the magnitude of the proportional electrical signal. This triggering signal is applied to a second timer circuit which actuates the watering system for a predetermined period of time in response to the triggering signal.

Abstract: An apparatus for clearing and cleaning of engine cylinder exhaust ports wherein access is gained through the spark plug receiving bore. The apparatus consists of a unitary cleaning tool having a handle end and a bent tool end extending at approximately 90.degree. from said handle end, the tool end of the implement having a terminus of selected diameter and posteriorly extending lip formed thereon. In addition, the device utilizes a template which is readily affixed to the engine cylinder head to provide manipulative direction in cleaning selected ones of the exhaust ports of the engine.

Abstract: A communication system for combining telephone service with hands-free talk-back intercom service is disclosed. The telephone service includes a telephone exchange network having an outside trunk, an internal trunk, and a device for switching the telephones within the system between either the outside trunk or the internal trunk in response to appropriate signals from the telephones. The intercom network generally includes a main distribution station associated with various telephones and transducers. Various embodiments of the system, having differing numbers of the above elements, are disclosed.

Abstract: A bicycle trailer having reduced transverse profile and horizontal frame work with load carriage concentrated over the trailer wheel. The device utilizes a horizontal frame work as fork-supported above a standard bicycle wheel and having a tongue assembly formed integral with the trailer frame. The tongue assembly is then pivotally attached over a hitch plate that is vertically pivotally attached via T-connectors to each rear fork member of the associated bicycle.

Abstract: A window insulation device is disclosed for interior installation. The device comprises at least two tubular sections, and at least one male and one female section. The male and female sections are adjustably fitted for tight reception between the window sill and window frame.

Abstract: An electrical line-connector device for safety application. The electrical contacts of the two-part line-connector which connect electrical conductors with one another are flush contacts, which come into contact when the connecting parts are brought together. Each connecting part contains a part of a holding-magnet arrangement which includes a permanent magnet, assuring the holding-together of the connecting parts and the required contact pressure. The one connecting part contains a switch device which is formed in such a way that the flush contacts only carry voltage when the connecting parts are placed together. The switch device can be a familiar magnetic switch, which is switched on by the permanent magnet in the other connecting part when the connecting parts are placed together.
