Abstract: A wave shim and a method of shimming two elements is provided. The method includes inserting between two elements, at least one wave shim, which is a wave-shaped compressible body with a slot subdividing a portion of the body at the end into a pair of wave-shaped extending arms, and a tab attached to the body at a side opposite the wave-shaped extending arms. The shim has an area of reduced body material at a junction point between the tab and the body so that the tab can be broken off, and at least one area of reduced body material exists at corresponding locations along each of the wave-shaped extending arms so that the length of the arms can be reduced. The tab and arms define through-holes and grooves, which can be used in conjunction with a guide-line to align several elements.

Abstract: An apparatus and mounting arrangement supports infrastructure in slabs. The apparatus includes a lower section (104) that provides stability and is further able to communicate information about the apparatus or mounting arrangement after the slab has been formed around the apparatus. The apparatus further includes an upper section (102), that when combined with the lower section (104), is capable of holding a plurality of infrastructure items at a predefined distance above a base level. The upper section (102) is further provided with a portion (1002) that will extend above the upper surface of the slab to communicate the presence of the apparatus after the slab has been poured.

Abstract: A system for electronically controlled generation of oxygen and hydrogen gas from an electrolyte. Ambient air is drawn into the system through the air filter and into the inlet hose. The flow of air is caused by the venturi effect of engine intake air passing over the base of the 90 degree induction fitting. The flow of air across the air flow sensor causes the controller to direct power to the chamber power lugs. At the same time, the controller monitors the level of electrolyte in the chamber case. Should the level of electrolyte drop below the upper edge of the process plates, the controller will then cause power to be directed to the reservoir pump to restore electrolyte fluid to a predefined level. In addition to monitoring electrolytic solution level, the controller monitors voltage and amperage across the two chamber power lugs, and the temperature of the electrolytic solution in the process chamber case. This information is stored in the controller and displayed when requested.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for moving an automatic teller machine and the like between an operational position and a servicing position to provide access to the back of the machine for servicing. The apparatus essentially comprises a stationary frame and a moving carriage supported by the frame. In the operational position, the front end of the carriage is coextensive with the front end of the frame. In the servicing position, however, the front end of the carriage is cantilevered beyond the front end of the frame. The carriage may also be telescopic such that a telescoping member is contained in the carriage to allow the carriage more movement. In order to move and support the carriage, especially in the servicing position, there is a shaft freely rotatable in a pair of bearings at the front end of the frame on which the carriage rides. The back end of the carriage rides within the frame's rails, which prevent the carriage from moving up or down but otherwise freely allow lateral movement.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for moving an automatic teller machine and the like between a retracted position and an extended position to provide access to the back of the machine for servicing. The apparatus essentially comprises a stationary frame and a moving carriage supported by the frame. In the retracted position, the front end of the carriage is coextensive with the front end of the frame. In the extended position, however, the front end of the carriage is cantilevered beyond the front end of the frame. In order to move and support the carriage, especially in the extended position, there is a shaft freely rotatable in a pair of bearings at the front end of the frame on which the carriage rides. The back end of the carriage rides within the frame's rails, which prevent the carriage from moving up or down but otherwise freely allows lateral movement. By turning the shaft with a hand crank or a small motor, the carriage with the teller machine can easily be moved between retracted to extended positions.

Abstract: The present invention is a transport system for an automatic teller machine (ATM). The transport system comprises a motor-driven mechanism and a pair of bearing assemblies. The ATM is positioned within a housing and moves between a retracted position and an extended position by the operation of the motor-driven mechanism. The ATM is supported within the housing by a frame that has a chain attached to its side. A motor connected to the housing and having a motor-driven sprocket engages the chain, thus moving the ATM relative to the housing. An idler sprocket is also provided that is used to define the chain path so that multiple teeth of the motor-driven sprocket engage the chain. Each bearing assembly comprises a channel fixed to the base of the housing. A bearing comprising a block with a plurality of slots is positioned within the interior of the channel.
