Abstract: A rotary machine tool holder has therein intermediate its ends a plurality of balancing screws that are mounted in internally threaded blind bores that extend part way into the holder from equi-angularly spaced points about an outer peripheral surface formed on the holder intermediate its ends, and coaxially of an axial bore in the holder. The screws are adjustable along axes disposed substantially tangentially of the axial bore of the holder, and are prevented from projecting radially beyond the outer peripheral surface of the holder by a plurality of cap screws removably mounted in the holder to have the heads thereof restrict the extent to which the balancing screws can be adjusted toward the outer surface of the holder.

Abstract: The details necessary for embodying the present invention are: a supporting frame; two rotors; a system for the periodic alternating motion thereof with phases of 0° and 90°; two tubular 2-phase circuits (CB) consisting of two parallel identical tubes termed “active circuits” with an inlet and outlet tube at the connection points; starting from the inlet, where to each circuit is applied a one-way valve with the task of allowing only inlet of the liquid, the two circuits constituting the CB are wound one with right-hand direction and the other with left-hand direction; on each rotor an identical CB is fastened. The inlet of the first CB is connected with the feed source and the outlet with the inlet of the other CB, whose outlet is connected with the user. The connections of the 2-phase circuits are made with flexible tubes. With crankshaft rotation the two CBs develop a pressure differential and a continuous flow with valves constantly open.

Each such shaft is connected to the output shaft of an electronic motor reducer through a transmission-gear in the form of a screw extending transversely of the respective pivotal shaft. The screw is drivingly connected through a threaded slider which is in engagement with a pair of cam elements mounted on a respective pivotal shaft to impart pivotal movement thereto, and consquent movement to the portion of the armchair connected thereto.

Abstract: In a cinematic film projector a light source projects light through a single, non-centric light transparent transmission window formed in a rotary shutter, and through an image window and an image of a film which passes step by step past the image window for projection by a projector lens onto a cinema screen. In order to obtain a higher image frequency, the rotary shutter is made of light transparent material that is coated so that light passes through only its single light transmission window. Thereby the rotary speed of the rotary shutter can be significantly increased.

The zoom lens housing has therein a plurality of movable zoom lens groups for projecting a magnified image of the object to the image plane in the camera; and the zoom lens groups are adjustable axially of the housing to alter the magnification of the image projected to the camera.

Abstract: An automatic cable clamping vice with insertion of the cable (1) between an upper tightening member (2) and a lower tightening member (3) anchored through an eyelet (12) is described. In accordance with the present invention the connection between the tightening members (2) and (3) takes place through the two side hinges made up of eyelets (6) and withdrawable pins (7) and (8) as well as the fact that the hinges are inclined at an angle &agr; with respect to the axis of the cable (1) and that the hinges in addition to the rotary movement also permit longitudinal movement in such a manner that the shifting of the member (2) longitudinally with respect to the member (3) due to the cable traction also causes closing of the members (2) and (3) and therewith tightening of the interposed cable (1).

Abstract: Organic gases and the like containing poisonous dioxin and so on which are evaporated from articles when they are subjected to a heat treatment such as degreasing, are led from a muffle where they are heated into radiant heating tubes located outside the muffle and loaded with a negative pressure, and they are discharged into the air on account of the negative pressure working in the heating tubes after they have been substantially completely pyrolyzed in the heating tubes.

Abstract: A hinge for furniture comprises a bowl (11) intended for being flush-recessed into a piece of furniture. Close to one side (20) of the bowl, arms (12) for hinge articulation are pivotally mounted. The bowl is provided with wings (13) having fastening dowels (14), the dowels having operating levers (16) movable between a position for dowel fastening and a position in which dowels are released. In the fastening position the lever (13) extends over a bowl edge (19) opposite to the side close to the arm pivoting point.

Abstract: A tool holder, which has a tool bit pivotal in a recess in one end thereof, extends coaxially through a generally bell shaped piston housing, and through the center of a piston slidably mounted on the holder for limited reciprocation in the housing axially thereof. The piston is urged by a compressing spring to a retracted position against one end of the housing, and has a reduced diameter annular wall that projects coaxially toward the end of the holder containing the tool bit. A tool actuating rod, which is pivotal in an axial bore in the holder, has on one end a lever which extends slidably into an axially extending helical slot formed in the annular piston wall, and is connected at its opposite end to the tool bit. When the piston is in its retracted position, the helical slot in its annular wall causes the actuating rod to swing the tool bit to an inoperative position within the holder recess.

Abstract: A rigid tool slide support is disposed to be mounted in a screw machine in either of two different operating positions in each of which a tool slide reciprocates on the upper surface of the support to convey a cutting tool to and from the work that is to be machined. Projecting centrally from the bottom surface of the slide is an elongate, dovetail shaped guide which is slidably mounted in a similarly shaped but slightly wider recess in the support. Secured in the recess of the support adjacent one side thereof, and slidably engaged with a confronting side of the dovetail guide of the slide, is an elongate expansion gib having therein an adjusting screw that is rotatably adjustable to expand or contract the length of the gib, thereby to adjust the running clearance between the support and the slide.

Abstract: An elongate, rigid blade holder has in its outer surface an elongate slot which is rectangular in cross section. An elongate, flexible squeegee blade has a first portion thereof extending downwardly into said slot and snugly between the sidewalls thereof. The remaining portion of the blade projects upwardly out of the slot and beyond the outer surface of the holder and has formed thereon at least one longitudinally extending printing edge. Each sidewall of the slot has formed in its upper edge a longitudinally extending recess opening on the outer surface of the holder and on opposite sides of the blade. Each of said recesses has an elongate, flexible blade locking rod removably press fit therein and frictionally engaged with the confronting side of the blade thereby removably securing the blade in the slot.

Abstract: A hinge for furniture comprises a bowl (11) and a wing (12) interconnected by connecting rods (13, 14) pivotally mounted to enable a movement between a closed position and an open position of the hinge. An automatic closure mechanism (19, 20) urges the hinge towards a closed position when the hinge is brought close to such a closed position. The bowl (11) comprises regions (21) of interference with at least one connecting rod when the hinge is close to the open position, to offer an increased resistance to said movement over a length thereof close to the open position.

Abstract: The device includes a housing containing a dc battery, a microphone, an audio tone signal source, and a speaker and headphone jack which can receive audio signals from either the microphone or the tone signal source, and two multi-pin XLR receptacles or jacks, one of which is male and the other of which is female. The connectors can supply audio signals from the microphone or tone signal source to the input of the speaker and headphone jack, or alternatively, such signals can be outputted by the male connector to a circuit external of the housing, or a source external to the housing can be utilized to supply audio signals via the male or female connector to the speaker. Power from the battery is supplied selectively either to the microphone or to the tone signal source by a switch which can be moved to either of two different operative positions, or by a volume control knob which applies power to the speaker circuits.
