Abstract: The invention relates to three-dimensional carriers consisting of inorganic porous material and 0.001-95% of unextractably sorbed reactive polymer of the general formula I: ##STR1## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.4 respectively are hydrogen atom, alkyl with 1-5 carbon atoms, or aryl, and R.sub.3 is the group --COO--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --, and to a method for its preparation. The three-dimensional carriers may be prepared by coating the inorganic porous material with a monomer, which is left to polymerize under the conditions of solution polymerization, while the soluble polymer, which is not bound on the surface of the inorganic material, is removed by extraction.The three-dimensional carrier may also be prepared by depositing a solution of a polymer of general formula I and with a degree of polymerization lower than 10.sup.3 on the inorganic porous material, leaving the two materials in contact with each other, and separating the unbound polymer by extraction.

Abstract: This invention relates to some unique mechanical devices, which, when attached in natural sequence to a shotshell reloading press, allows faster, smoother and more compatable performance of said press.Specific devices which are included are, (1) a device designed for more positive reciprocation of a carrying ram, which, when actuated, meters and carries, "either wads of primers to their destination for instillation in a spent shotshell casing". (2) Another unique mechanical device is a miniature leverage system which feeds empty shell casings into the holding slots of the index carrier plate by means of a coordinated swivel mounted lever which forces said casings into holding slots of said carrier index plate upon the acuation of said press. (3) To conclude the unique devices of this application is a holding tray for new primers.
Abstract: A photoflash lamp array comprising a housing elongated vertically and containing elongated flash lamps lying horizontally and stacked vertically, the flash lamps having lead-in wires extending from ends thereof near the sides of the housing and connected to a circuit board located behind the lamps. A conductive sheet-like shield is positioned between the circuit board in the rear of the housing and is contoured to have side portions extending forwardly in between lamp ends and the sides of the housing. The front surface of the shield is both electrically conductive and reflects light with electrically insulated flash indicator material being positioned on said front surface but not extending to the side portions thereof. By increasing the light reflective surface of said shield member in this manner there is increased light output obtained from said lamp array.

Abstract: Disclosed is a lead bullet having a coating comprised of a thermoplastic composition of molybdenum disulfide and Nylon 11. Nylon 11 per se and other coatings are also disclosed. The coating minimizes or prevents deposition of lead along the barrel and other mechanisms of a firearm. To apply the coating, the bullet is initially degreased and heated to clean its surfaces. A phosphate coating is applied and the bullet is heated to a temperature of at least 425.degree. F. The heated bullet is then disposed in blended molybdenum disulfide and Nylon 11 powder, Nylon 11 per se, or other coating materials to obtain a coating thickness within a range of 1-12 mils. The coated bullet is subsequently heated to at least 367.degree. F. to fuse and to densify the coating on the bullet.

Abstract: Coagulated protein food products such as cottage cheese, bakers' cheese, cream cheese and "tofu," i.e., soybean curd, are prepared by adding an aliphatic C.sub.2-6 dione and hydrogen peroxide to bovine milk of varying solids content or to soybean milk, the acid necessary for the acidification and protein coagulation being generated by the oxidation of the dione "in situ." This acidogen system is likewise adaptable to the leavening of various bakery doughs in combination with sodium bicarbonate.
