Abstract: This invention concerns heterocyclic derivatives which are useful in inhibiting oxido-squalene cyclase, processes for their preparation and pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The present invention is also concerned with heterocyclic derivatives capable of inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis and hence in lowering cholesterol levels in blood plasma. The present invention also relates to methods of using such heterocyclic derivatives in treating or preventing diseases and medical conditions such as hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis and other medical conditions associated with elevated cholesterol levels.

Abstract: A marine outdrive attachable to the transom of a small fishing boat having an inboard engine. The marine outdrive includes a kit having through transom mounting plate, a fabricated propeller shaft housing pivotally attached to a pivot member which is pivotally attached to said transom plate thereby providing freedom of movement in two planes. The outdrive is supported and maintained under tension in the horizontal plane by a flexible member and a shock absorber thus maintaining automatically contact with any surface in contact with the boat's keel. A kit is provided containing all essential components and instructions for installation of the outdrive on a small fishing craft. All working components are off the shelf stock items or fabricated for easy field repair.

Abstract: A welding torch (10) for gas tungsten arc (tungsten inert gas) welding includes a housing (12) and an electrode holder (50, 52) which is mounted on the housing so as to project therefrom, and which is adapted to hold an electrode (54) such that the electrode projects from an end of the holder remote from the housing. A shroud (14) is mounted on, or forms part of, the housing (12) and extends around but is spaced from the electrode holder (50, 52). Electrically conductive means (46, 48) extends within the housing (12) for electrically connecting the electrode holder (50, 52) to one terminal of an electric power source. The torch (10) is adapted for connection to a source of an inert gas for generating a flow of gas through the shroud (14), around the electrode holder (50, 52).

Abstract: A meter apparatus wherein time is purchased upon deposit of a coin or the like for setting of a clock mechanism. A parking meter may be involved, and a rotatable handle is provided for operating a drive shaft connected between the clock mechanism and handle. A clutch is interposed between the handle and drive shaft with the clutch including a pin or other releasable element engaging both the shaft and handle. A spring force is applied to the pin so that normal rotation of the handle will operate the drive shaft. Excessive force will release the pin in opposition to the spring so that damage will not occur even upon continued rotation of the handle. The pin and handle are ordinarily reset in a proper starting position so that the next operation of the meter will proceed in correct fashion.
