  • Patent number: 5889463
    Abstract: The present invention defines an anti-theft device for use with a variety of personal property, including bicycles, motorcycles and other small vehicles employing a three-part assembly of high-impact glass-filled nylon which attaches to vehicle frames of various size. The fastening means is hidden and sound channels are utilized to enhance an audible alarm and to prevent muffling of an interior speaker, activated by partial cutting or disconnection of a cable of known resistance. The cable is inserted in a case assembly with differing positions depending on whether the user wishes to set the alarm or store the cable out of the way if not energized. The alarm may be silenced by incrementally turning a key and removing a cable. The same key is positioned to allow arming of the alarm by insertion of the cables in the proper orientation.

  • Patent number: 4497558
    Abstract: An improved diffusion-transfer processor for photomechanical reproduction of artwork and like mediums of the type using negative and receiver materials, wherein the materials are passed through a chemical solution discharged through a bath assembly. The processor includes a separator positioned forwardly of and intermediately between two sets of transport rollers which are located one above the other. One sheet of material is placed above the separator and the other sheet of material is placed below the separator, both sheets being received in the respective transport rollers simultaneously with their emulsion surfaces facing each other. The upper sheet is fed over a liquid-dispenser bar, and the lower sheet is fed under the liquid-dispenser bar to allow the emulsion surface of the upper sheet to be bathed in the chemical solution.

  • Patent number: 4338016
    Abstract: An improved diffusion-transfer processor for photomechanical reproduction of artwork and like mediums of the type using one negative and one receiver that are passed through a chemical solution to provide a single finished print. The processor comprises a first set of rollers to transport the negative through a continuous flow of chemical solution and into the second set of rollers, the second set of rollers being positioned to simultaneously accept both the negative and the receiver so as to bring them in direct contact, whereby the image of the negative is transferred to the receiver. The negative and the receiver may be of any length that is equal to or greater than the distance between the first and second sets of rollers.
