    Assignee: Bio-Technical Resources
    Inventor: Edward Daniel Burger
  • Patent number: 5730369
    Abstract: An injector for delivering a charge of fuel and air to an engine includes a central passage extending from an air inlet to a valve seat, a poppet valve secured on a valve stem extending through the central passage and engageable with the valve seat, a poppet valve engageable with a valve seat for controlling flow therethrough, a fuel nozzle opening into the air passage near the valve seat, apparatus for periodically metering fuel through the nozzle into the central passage to create a fuel-air charge in the central passage concentrated near the valve seat, and apparatus for periodically disengaging the poppet valve from the valve seat for delivering the fuel-air charge from the central passage.

  • Patent number: 5708066
    Abstract: Acrylic compositions filled with alumina trihydrate with the mixed ester reaction product of propylene glycol methacrylate and phosphorus pentoxide have superior mechanical properties and ease of manufacture. In such acrylic compositions, the ester reaction product imparts superior properties by acting as a very effective coupling agent between the alumina trihydrate filler and the acrylic matrix.

  • Patent number: 5682813
    Abstract: A mechanical press having a very precise shutheight control system. The press includes a bed connected to a frame with a slide connected with the frame for reciprocating motion opposing the bed. The slide and bed together define a shutheight of the press. A drive mechanism is attached to the frame for driving the reciprocating slide, the drive mechanism includes a drive piston and a tie rod. The shutheight control system includes a chamber located between the drive piston and tie rod with a pressurizing mechanism in communication with the chamber for selectively pressurizing the chamber with a predetermined pressure. The pressurizing mechanism causes the tie rod to one of expand and contract to thereby control press shutheight.

  • Patent number: 5638748
    Abstract: The invention pertains to a press comprising, a drive mechanism, a slide and at least two connecting rods connecting between the drive mechanism and the slide for reciprocally driving the slide. At least two fluid valves are connected to respective connecting rods and manifolded together with a hydraulic chamber disposed in or adjacent the connecting rods. An electrically adjustable proportional valve is connected to the fluid valves which operate to vary the pressure at which the fluid valves open to unload the slide. A variable system pressurizing mechanism for pressuring said chambers to a predetermined system pressure is utilized while the mechanism may unload the slide if pressure within a hydraulic chamber exceeds a predetermined system pressure. A variable relief mechanism automatically relieves pressure within the hydraulic chambers dependent on an operating state of the press.
