Abstract: A food pan carrier has a pan carrier body with a wheeled dolly attached thereto. The wheeled dolly is connected with at least one fastener. The wheeled dolly is removably connected to the food pan carrier body so that it may be easily connected and disconnected therefrom.

Abstract: A pallet used for stacking various types of catering and food service equipment is disclosed. The pallet has a floor which includes an upper surface and a lower surface. A forward wall and end wall and a pair of side walls extend upwardly from the top surface. A pair of rear legs, a pair of intermediate legs, and a pair of forward legs extend downward from the lower surface of the floor. The forward and intermediate legs define openings which will receive and interlock with the handles of the catering equipment. Likewise, the rear and intermediate legs define a pair of rear openings which will receive the upwardly extending handles of the catering equipment thereby interlocking the pallet and the catering equipment. The pallet also includes a downwardly extending rear support beam which has a transverse slot disposed therein. The transverse slot is a means for receiving handles of certain types of catering equipment so that the catering equipment and pallet will interlock.

Abstract: A RIM apparatus has a separate hydraulically actuated monomer dispensing system associated with one of at least two different fluid chemical monomers to be mixed and molded. Each system is connected with a separate hydraulic fluid delivery cylinder (one for each monomer) for receiving hydraulic fluid therefrom and is operable for dispensing the associated monomer to a RIM mixing head and mold at a rate proportional to the rate that said hydraulic fluid is delivered thereto from the connected delivery cylinder. Each delivery cylinder is supported at a preselected position with its axis spaced radially from a reference axis and at least one thereof is bodily adjustable radially with respect to said reference axis and to the axis of another delivery cylinder. Each delivery cylinder discharges hydraulic fluid at a rate proportional to the rate of movement of an associated piston therein.

Abstract: Multicomponent catalysts comprising copper, a metal selected from the group consisting of vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel and zinc; and phosphate are employed for oxidizing an aromatic carboxylic acid to the corresponding phenol, e.g., benzoic acid to phenol.
