Abstract: A broadcast system includes a device to compare program material to be transmitted with a database of known material, and to transmit along with the program material data corresponding to that program material. A corresponding receiving system stores the data in memory and displays, at the selection of the user, the data corresponding to the program material. The user selectively stores the data on a magnetic recording card for electronic coupon or other uses. Various modes of operation are selectable by the user, and the data may be used as electronic coupons, or to control attached equipment, or to sound alarms, or for other applications. Broadcast of the associated data commences earlier than that of the program material so that such data are available for display on a receiver when the program material is first received. The receiver is connectable to remote terminals for the collection of information relating to a user's pattern of storing and accessing the broadcast data.

Abstract: Improved apparatus for plastic molding devices and more particularly for an improved injection plastic molding machine which uses mold inserts carried by pockets in the machinery where a first platen is provided having a first platen pocket to receive a first mold half to be located in communication with a source of plastic material for example thermoplastic material, a second platen having a second platen pocket adapted to receive a second mold half so that the second mold half can be moved to abutting relation with the first mold half to form a cavity defined by the first and second mold halves into which molten plastic material is injected. A source of cooling fluid can be provided through the first and second platen to the first and second mold halves utilizing seal devices between the first and second platens and the first and second mold halves respectively.
