Abstract: An apparatus for producing foam from a liquid mixture.

Abstract: Filtration material comprising a web comprising meltblown fibers and staple, electrically charged fibers randomly dispersed among the meltblown fibers. The filtration material can be formed in planar configurations and in configurations other than planar. Non-planar configurations can extend the useful working area for a given filter element's cross-section without requiring an additional corrugating or pleating process step. The filtration material exhibits high strength and low pressure drop.

Abstract: A waterproof electrical splice enclosure for receiving a single electrical connector splicing the ends of a plurality of insulated electrical conductors extending out of the connector in the same same direction and parallel to one another. The enclosure comprises an elongated hollow tube having one open end and one closed end having a cross-section slightly larger than the connector. A connector retainer is provided to retain the electrical connector adjacent the closed end of the tube with the insulated electrical conductors extending out of the open end of the tube, and the tube contains a waterproofing fluid which will not flow out of the tube but which will flow around the connector as it is slid into the tube to provide a waterproof seal around the connector and around and between the insulated conductors. A cap is connected to the tube at its open end by a hinge and has a bulbous protrusion to fit into and close the open end of the tube, and latch retains the cap in the closed position.

Abstract: The intake system is adapted to supply a substantially intimately blended combustible mixture of fuel and air to a combustion machine. A conduit is provided for conducting a flowing stream of fuel and air to a combustion machine. Mixing means for blending the stream comprises a peripheral flow focusing structure for redirecting the flow of at least substantially all peripheral portions of the stream from vectors of generally linear flow substantially adjacent the interior surface of the conduit to vectors of inward flow interjacently substantially converging toward a central zone removed from the interior surfaces of the conduit and removed from the focusing structure.
