Abstract: A cleaning apparatus (1), to clean a conveyor belt (3) curving in its main plane, comprises a cleaning drum (9) of which the diameter at its end (9i) adjacent to the belt's inner edge (3i) is smaller than its diameter at its end (9a) adjacent to the outer edge (3a).

Abstract: Solid extrusion coating compositions for metal substrates, a method of extrusion coating a metal substrate, and a metal article are disclosed. The extrusion coating composition is a thermoplastic material and comprises: (a) a polyester having a weight average molecular weight of 10,000 to 50,000 and optionally, (b) a modifying resin, selected from epoxy resins having an epoxy equivalent weight of 500 to 15,000, acrylic resins or polyolefin resins. The extrusion coating composition is applied to a metal substrate in an extrusion process to provide a composition film having a thickness of about 1 to about 40 microns.

Abstract: A solid coating composition for use in powder coating and extrusion coating applications is disclosed. The coating composition contains about 70 to about 95% of a base resin, such as a polyester, and about 1 to about 50% of a low-to-medium molecular weight end-capped epoxy resin, and is essentially free of a bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether monomer. The solid coating composition is applied to a metal substrate in a powder coating or an extrusion process to provide a metal article having a composition film having a thickness of about 1 to about 200 microns. The metal articles can be used to package food and beverages.

Abstract: Solid extrusion coating compositions for metal substrates, a method of extrusion coating a metal substrate, and a metal article are disclosed.

Abstract: The thermo-setting reaction adhesive present as a mono-component system contains as its essential components respectively at least a) one unsaturated scaffold polymer based on a non-cross-linked elastomer in a share of 5 to 90% by weight, b) one unsaturated polyester in a share of 5 to 90% by weight, c) one unsaturated cross-linking agent in a share of 0.1 to 50% by weight, d) one setting catalyst which provides radicals with an activation temperature of 60.degree. to 300.degree. C. in a share of 0.2 to 6% by weight and f) optionally other additives. The adhesive is distinguished by high storage stability and high adhesive strength with a short cross-linking time and it is particularly suitable for bonding thermo-shrinking molded parts.

Abstract: A curved conveyor element is provided which comprises outer and inner spaced curved frame members having first and second ends. A pivotal head is rotatably mounted to the frame at one end, a row of rollers being provided in the pivotal head and a second row being secured to the other end of the frame. An endless conveyor belt passes around both rows of rollers, and is driven by a drive attached to the belt by elastic dog members. Removable supporting elements are positioned between the outer and inner frame members substantially coplanar with the conveyor belt. The pivotal head is rotatable to a position above the upper reach of the belt to permit the belt to be installed and removed through a slot defined by the removable supporting elements.

Abstract: The device for simplification of adjustment and set-up of a sewing machine comprises a keyboard allowing introduction of information relating to the sewing operation to be performed to the material to be sewn and the like. The information introduced are applied to addresses of memory means, and data relating to the adjustment and set-up of the sewing machine are transmitted to adjusting means and displays illustrating set-up and adjustment. The sewing machine is automatically adjusted and may be set-up by the operator in accordance with the setting-up data indicated on displays provided on the sewing machine. In this way, adjustment and setting-up of the sewing machine is rendered easy and reliable.

Abstract: Detrimental color change of phenolic antioxidants during production, storage and use in rubbers is inhibited by adding during the synthesis of the phenolic antioxidant a disubstituted hydroxylamine to the catalyst neutralization solution and a substituted oxime together with a disubstituted hydroxylamine to the reaction mixture prior to filtration.

Abstract: The device discussed herein which is preferably a separate auxiliary unit, is equipped with a keyboard for entry of sewing conditions such as material type and sewing operation. Data is entered in an electronic memory which contains instructions for sewing machine adjustment and set-up. These instructions are clearly indicated at certain points on the device or preferably on the sewing machine for the most part so that sewing machine adjustment and set-up can be performed without special previous knowledge. In this connection, it is possible to supply clear instructions for a great number of data combinations directly at the points of the sewing machine where adjustment and set-up occur.

Abstract: An electrical switch in which during a switchoff operation the switchoff current is commuted from a continuous current path through the switch to an extinction current path which includes a pair of separable contact members one of which is located in a region of the switch housing within which a relatively low gas pressure exists, the other contact member being located within a pressure chamber in which a higher gas pressure is generated during the switchoff operation by heating the gas electrically with an auxiliary rotating arc drawn between a pair of arcing members located within the pressure chamber and which disengage during the switchoff movement. The heated and pressurized gas within the pressure chamber is discharged through a small opening in a nozzle which is opened as the contact members separate thus blasting and extinguishing the arc formed therebetween.
