  • Patent number: 7951757
    Abstract: The fluid compositions of the present invention include an alkoxy glycol component, where the composition includes no more than about 10 wt % of a borate ester based on the weight of the composition. The physical properties of the compositions of include a high dry equilibrium reflux boiling point (ERBP), a high wet equilibrium reflux boiling point (WERBP), and a low temperature viscosity. These compositions are particularly useful because their physical properties (e.g., WERBP, ERBP, and low temperature viscosity) meet or exceed the provisions for DOT 3 brake fluids under the Federal Motor Vehicle Standard No. 116.

  • Patent number: 4194452
    Abstract: Parallel links pivotally connect each end of a tabletop to a table base so that the top can be swung in level attitude elevationally and laterally relative to the base. A tie rod synchronizes the movement of links at opposite ends of the top to maintain such links in alignment for smooth swinging of the top. When the top is swung upward and outward from a position centrally of the table base, mechanism responsive to such swinging of the top automatically projects a stabilizing foot outward beyond the side of the base toward which the top moves, and such mechanism retracts such foot into the base when the top is swung downward and inward.
