  • Patent number: 4347893
    Abstract: An oil heated motorcycle handlebar construction is enclosed utilizing an oil line extending from the engine or oil pump of the motorcycle engine to carry the warm oil to a sealed conduit defined along the interior of the handlebars. The intake line extends from the point of entry into the handlebars to the outermost end of one handle. An exit line is included extending from the outermost end of the opposite handle to carry the oil from the handlebar interior back to the oil tank of the conventional motorcycle engine. The intake line and the oil line include an intermediate aperture in order to minimize the heating of the portions of the handlebars adjacent to the gripping sections during operation of the motorcycle during the warmer months. Access to the interior of the oil chamber defined within the handlebars is provided by removable stoppers in the outer ends of each of the arms of the handlebar.

  • Patent number: 4078118
    Abstract: This invention relates to compositions of the formula: ##STR1## wherein n is 0 to 2 and at least 1 and not more than 2n + 2 of the A groups are ester radicals of the structure ##STR2## wherein R is a straight chain or branched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical containing 11 to 19 carbon atoms and at least 2 and not more than 2n + 3 of the A groups are ester radicals of the structure ##STR3## wherein m is 0 to 1. The composition is formed by reacting one mole of a mono, di- or tri-pentaerythritol of the formula: ##STR4## WHEREIN N IS 0-2 WITH 2N + 4 MOLES OF A MIXTURE OF MONOCARBOXYLIC ACIDS FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF (A) AT LEAST 1 AND NOT MORE THAN 2N + 2 MOLES OF RCOOH wherein R is a straight chain or branched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical containing 11 to 19 carbon atoms and (b) at least 2 and not more than 2n + 3 of HSCH.sub.2 (CH.sub.2).sub.m COOH wherein m is 0 to 1.
