Abstract: An article for wrapping a baby or infant and adapted to keep the infant warm and secured. The article for wrapping the infant comprising a sheet of flexible material having an inner surface for receiving the infant and an outer surface. The sheet of flexible material is configured to include a central area which extends between a first side and a second side. A first side flap extends outwardly from the first side and the central area to a first side flap end. In a similar configuration, a second side flap extends outwardly from the second side to a second side flap end. A slit is disposed in the central area and extends between the inner surface and the outer surface. The first side flap is configured to be wrapped around the infant, inserted through the slit and secured to the outer surface. The second side flap is configured to be wrapped around the infant and over the previously folded first side flap.

Abstract: A circuit assembly which includes an interface circuit between a subscriber line and exchange devices of the kind with two amplifiers connected in a bridge configuration between the battery terminals and having a means of detecting the output currents; a supply circuit which includes the exchange battery and a ring generator; a switch-over means for putting the line through the interface circuit or the supply circuit; two bridge resistors which are in series with the line when the latter is connected to the supply circuit and of which one is connected permanently between one of the line terminals and the output of one of the amplifiers, which output is substantially at the potential of one of the battery poles; an additional resistor, having a much higher resistive value than that of the bridge resistors and being connected between the other of the line terminals and the output of the other of the amplifiers; and a processing means within the interface circuit, which includes said detecting means and is effec

Abstract: An improved sheet carrying device in which a frame is provided including a lower frame portion defining a plane against which a sheet of material may be placed. The lower frame portion has a lower crossbar which forms a lower lifting region and defines a curve which is effective for accommodating a leg of a user during use to facilitate walking. An upper frame portion has an upper crossbar which forms an upper lifting region and defines a curve which is effective for accommodating the shoulder of the user during use to prevent sliding of the carrying device. The lower frame portion includes a pair of extendable arms which are effective for varying the distance between the upper lifting region and the lower lifting region. A strap member is attached to the upper frame portion which is effective for supporting the carrying device around the torso of a user during use.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for generating a foam from a preheated dye solution and subsequently applying the foam to continuous strands of yarn wherein the foam is driven by a pressure differential. The apparatus has a foaming pan for producing the foam from the dye solution and a gas. The pan opens into a foam transmission chamber at or near ambient pressure which fluid communicates with an evacuated spent foam discharge chamber across an open interface. The yarn is dyed by conveying it through the open interface and contacting it with the foam which is drawn across the open interface in a flow path perpendicular to the yarn by the pressure differential between the foam transmission and discharge chambers.
