  • Patent number: 3997791
    Abstract: An X-ray diagnosing device for producing X-ray photographic series, particularly motion pictures, has means for overload protection of the X-ray tube and an indicating device for the permissible scene duration. The invention is particularly characterized by a calculator which is programmed corresponding to anticipated photographing programs, and which produces upon the indicating device the duration of a scene, and indication zero for the pause required for the full scene duration after the last photographing series corresponding to the selected photographing program, and, after the termination of this pause, an indication of the full scene duration.

  • Patent number: 3971529
    Abstract: A fishing reel has a slide movable selectively against the action of a return spring into a locked position. The slide is used for shifting a gear wheel of the drive without engagement with a shaft for driving a spool, whereby an input gear wheel driven by a crank is provided with a stop which releases the locking of the slide when the input gear wheel is rotated. The invention is particularly characterized in that the stop is provided upon a separate structural part which is swingably connected in the circumferential direction for a limited movement with the inlet gear wheel.

  • Patent number: 3970470
    Abstract: A centrifuge, specifically a sugar centrifuge for the continuous centrifuging of highly viscous fillmasses, has a separating sieve conically widening upwardly to the outlet and an accelerating pot having no holes, which reduces downwardly and is connected to the smallest diameter of the sieve. The fillmass is supplied to one pot from a so-called harrow slide through a delivery pipe. The fillmass within the accelerating pot is diverted once or several times by suitable means in such manner that it is delivered screen-like to the wall of the pot and is guided from one diverting point to another and within its screen-like formation is penetrated by regulatable amounts of water and/or steam. The total amount of water and/or steam supplied to the fillmass as well as their temperature suffice to decrease the viscosity of the fillmass to the desired amount.

  • Patent number: 3961729
    Abstract: A shaving brush is carried upon the lower end of a holder. The holder has the shape of an elongated plate. Close to the upper end of the plate a transverse slot is provided upon its inner surface for attaching the plate to the projecting rim or edge of a can which is a dispenser of shaving cream. In the middle of the inner surface small projections are located which stabilize the attachment of the flat plate to the curved surface of the can. The brush is attached to the lower edge of the plate and spaced from the inner and outer surfaces of the plate.

  • Patent number: 3949643
    Abstract: A profiling device for use with a machine tool includes a sleeve adapted to be attached to the machine tool and a tool carrier shaft rotatably mounted in the sleeve. The axis of the shaft is offset at a working angle relatively to the axis of the sleeve, so that the shaft carries out an oscillatory movement relatively to the sleeve when the shaft or the sleeve are rotated. The outer end of the shaft is adapted to receive a suitably shaped tool which can cut progressively into a workpiece until the entire profile has been produced when the relative rotational velocity of the workpiece and the tool is substantially zero.

  • Patent number: 3943366
    Abstract: A collimator for a ray diagnosing device for taking pictures produced by gamma rays or similar penetrating rays consists of a honeycomblike constructed body with many holes, the walls of which absorb the rays. The invention is particularly characterized in that the walls of the collimator are made of strips which extend parallel to each other in their longitudinal directions and are so folded transversely to their longitudinal extension that when two strips are placed next to each other one side of a strip makes a series of holes with the adjacent side of the following strip, the holes having a symmetry axis which coincides with the line separating the two strips.

  • Patent number: 3940820
    Abstract: A device for cleaning shoe soles, which can be stepped over, includes a grid with cylindrical rings having engaged surfaces and forming circular passages through the grid. A frame encloses these rings and has vertical pins extending through the axes of the rings. The cleaning brushes are plate-like and ring shaped and are rotatable upon these pins. The brushes extend into the circular passages of the grid. The pins also carry upper round plates, whereby the plates and the rings constitute edge supports for the brushes.

  • Patent number: 3932750
    Abstract: In a radiographic system a converter is used for changing image forming intensity distribution in a bundle of penetrating rays into a flow of electrically charged particles by electrodes located in a gas space and partly latticed (grids) which lie at potentials stepped from cathode to anode. The invention is particularly characterized by the provision of at least two grids extending between and parallel to the cathode and the anode. The electrical field which lies between two electrodes lies at least between the grids located closest to the cathode being to the extent of between 1 and 10%, in the average preferably 3% below the electrical break down field in the gas in a homogenous electrical field.
