Abstract: An improved bedding draw sheet comprised of a base sheet formed of a textile material, a panel formed of a textile material having water penetration-resistant characteristics bonded to the base sheet and a water-absorbent pad removably attached to the panel whereby the water-absorbent pad can be removed and laundered without the necessity of laundering the entire draw sheet.

Abstract: A clamp for waveguides or other cable has two members with overall semicylindrical contour, one being stiff, the other one being constructed from two flexible, integrally joint portions. The two members are bolted together on one side and bolted or hinged on the other side. The stiffer member can be separately bolted to a support by means of different kinds of bolts and fastening rods.

Abstract: A dental treatment environment having dental equipment coordinated relative to a reclining patient chair in a manner to provide minimum doctor time and motion and maximum efficiency. The chair has a patient headrest located adjacent a cabinet. An articulated first arm adjustable vertically and horizontally is movably mounted on the cabinet. The arm carries a tray useable for dental hand instruments and slow speed hand piece. An extendible and contractible second arm which moves up, down, side to side is attached to an upright support and has connected at its outer end a holder for dental high speed air turbines and air-water syringe. Both the tray and holder are movable to locations relative to the headrest whereby the transfer zone between tray and holder and patient is of minimum area. An operating light unit and its holding members are mounted on top of the support. A doctor's sink cabinet is located adjacent the doctor's side of the chair.

Abstract: A hose clamp body for use with a bolt having a shank and a head. A surface on the body grips the hose and an opening generally transverse to a first surface on the body receives the bolt shank. The bolt head is provided with a flat side surface laterally spaced a predetermined distance from the diametrically opposite side of the shank. Provided on the body is a second surface which intersects the first surface and extends away therefrom to an upper edge to form an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the opening. The predetermined distance being less than the transverse distance between the upper edge and the diametrically opposite side of the opening and greater than the transverse distance between the intersection and the diametrically opposite side of the opening so that the flat side of the bolt head engages the body second surface before the bolt head contacts the first surface to prevent the bolt from turning relative to the body.

Abstract: For facilitating the picking up and setting down of a container in a containerised goods transport system, there is provided at each corner of the container a lifting arrangement comprising a retractable leg housed with an operating ram in a post which is mounted by hinges on a corner frame member to swing about a vertical axis between a position laterally outboard of the container to allow the leg to be extended, and a stowed position in which the post with leg retracted is housed in a recess in a corner frame member so occupying otherwise non-used space.

Abstract: Panel legs are provided to support one or more connected cabinets in a row and to raise and lower the cabinet to a pre-selected height. Each leg is relatively thin and is comprised of a fixed, lower frame adapted to rest on the floor and a moveable upper portion connected to the cabinet. The moveable upper portion is raised and lowered with respect to the fixed lower portion by means of a lever pivoted at one end to the fixed frame and at the other end adapted to be set into any one of a number of vertically spaced notches formed in a fixed vertical post forming part of the fixed leg section. The lever connects to the moveable upper portion of the leg and, by operation of the lever, the upper portion of the leg, together with any cabinets attached thereto, will be raised or lowered to a selected height. The working mechanism is contained within the leg and is normally hidden from view by means of a removable front panel.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a composite structure for use in thermal insulation panels, especially those panels used in refrigerator cabinets. The composite structure comprises a layer of a gas filled cellular insulation material combined with a layer of impact resistant thermoplastic sheet material, wherein a film of a rubber modified high nitrile polymer containing at least 45% by weight of nitrile monomer units (calculated as acrylonitrile) is interposed between the gas filled cellular material and the thermoplastic sheet. The rubber modified high nitrile polymer film presents an effective barrier to the gas in the cellular material and provides improved impact strength in the composite while retaining good rigidity of the composite structure.

Abstract: A cabinet for a household trash compactor incorporates a cutting board on the top to enclose a bag storage compartment. The cutting board is reversible and is both hinged to permit access to the bag storage compactment and removable for cleaning and detached use.

Abstract: A cabinet table includes a center chest which has a pair of substantially vertical sidewalls, a table top mounted on the chest which has a portion overhanging at least one of the side walls and a substantially semi-circular top plate which is pivotably attachable to the support plate, and movable from a retracted position between the portion of the table top overhanging one of the side walls and the support plate of the bracket member to an extended position displaced by about 180.degree. from the retracted position. The top surfaces of the portion overhanging at least one of the side walls and the semi-circular top plate are substantially defined by a plane in that extended position of the top plate.

Abstract: A flat opening box consisting of a central base tray to the sides of which cover shells are hingedly connected to open out onto a flat surface; pivot link members are connected to movable trays in the cover shells which are also hingedly connected to the cover shells so that the box can be opened to a fully flat condition to prevent tilting and spillage of its contents when open.

Abstract: A single point suspension device for filing sheet material in parallel vertical planes within or without a cabinet construction in which a horizontal support bar has a sidewardly opening longitudinal recess defined in part by a sidewardly extending hook and in which is received a suspension member attached to upper edge margins of sheet material to be filed. The suspension member includes a sidewardly directed recess defined in part by a hook, the hooks and recesses of the suspension member and the support bar being correspondingly configured for substantially complete interlocking interengagement along correspondingly configured surfaces and whereby the interengagement is accomplished with relative horizontal movement of the bar and suspension member, and wherein the interlocking engagement restricts angular relative movement of the support bar and suspension member.

Abstract: A console type panel having instruments integral with the cover of the panel which is capable of being positioned in either a closed and locked attitude or an opened attitude by means of an external handle connected to an over-centering operating linkage.

Abstract: A sealing assembly adapted to close the gap between the swinging edge of a door and an associated member. In one embodiment the sealing assembly includes first and second generally cylindrical elements having a plurality of spaced apart teeth which extend radially outwardly from the elements, and first and second mounting means to mount the elements for free rotational movement in such a manner that they are parallel with each other and the edges of the associated structure so that when the door is closed the teeth of the first and second elements will interengage with each other.

Abstract: A rotary card file in which a card holder supported for rotation by a base structure has a plurality of trays that extend from a central hub and are equipped with retainer tracks that keep the cards in file alignment when the card holder is turned to position the tray in an upwardly facing access position, and which support the cards suspended from the tray when the card holder is turned to position the tray in a downwardly facing storage position .[...]. .Iadd.; and which in one embodiment of the invention, that shown in FIG. 9, has means for removably holding the trays against radially outward movement from the rotary card holder during traverse of the trays along the lower part of their circular orbit. .Iaddend.
