Abstract: An extrusion consisting of a tube having a circular outer cross section, a number of equidistantly spaced, radially extending, elongate ridges around the tube, and a groove between each pair of adjacent ridges.

Abstract: A rotary machine particularly intended for use as a pump comprises a two-lobe lenticular rotor rotatably disposed within a pump chamber defined by an annular wall with an inner surface having at least in part a cardioidal configuration. A rectangular drive plate on a shaft is disposed within an elongated drive slot in the rotor while a circular guide disc fixed on an end wall of the pump casing extends into a second elongated guide slot in the rotor. The second guide slot is perpendicular to the first slot so that, during operation, the rotor effectively reciprocates and rotates relative to the guide disc. If desired, two such circular guide discs can be provided, one on each end wall of the pump casing, for reciprocation and rotation relative to two such second guide slots in opposite faces of the rotor.

Abstract: A hair styling brush consisting of a handle and a heating element, and an open ended tube having a number of rows of radially projecting teeth extending from its outer surface, each tooth having a substantially rectangular cross section and having a length from base to apex of from 1/4" to 3/8".
