Abstract: A paperboard partitionless carrier is provided for containing filled beverage bottles. The carrier comprises a pair of spaced side walls joined by a pair of end walls to form a box structure which, in combination with a base, forms a tray which supports the bottles. The carrier also has bottle restraining means overlying and contacting the sealed necks of the bottles thereby preventing the bottles being opened and the bottles being extracted from the carrier without the material forming the carrier being visibly interfered with.

Abstract: A ceiling fan box adapted to be mounted on a structural member, such as a ceiling joist, and adapted to provide a ceiling fan direct securement to the structural member. The ceiling box includes a body having a lower surface and a pair of spaced apart opposed side members defining a recess therebetween for receiving the structural member therein. An aperture formed through the lower surface for receiving a fastener therein for securement to the structural member for supporting the body thereon. A pair of spaced apart openings formed through the lower surface for receiving a respective pair of fan supporting fasteners therethrough for directly securing a fan to the structure member.

Abstract: An electrical outlet box assembly provides for the accommodation of dual voltage fixtures. The outlet box assembly accommodates electrical fixtures and data fixtures along separate mounting axes. The electrical outlet box assembly provides for increased capacity while meeting applicable code requirements.

Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for searching a database resident list or set of lists for user-defined text patterns, identifying a match, reporting information related to the search result, and maintaining the lists to be searched in a mutually updating distributed database with automatic failover. One embodiment of the present invention provides a method of using a computer utility program to maintain a database of sanctioned entities in a plurality of sanction lists where such sanction lists arise, for example, from OFAC, foreign governments, or internally. The computer utility program allows an authorized user to search user-selected text patterns against the sanction lists to identify a sanctioned entity. Further, the computer utility program is network based so that sanction lists may be searched using different hardware configurations worldwide. In addition, because the database is distributed and mutually updating, sanction lists may be dynamically updated globally and are completely redundant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a waste water heat recovering unit for preheating cold fresh water with already heated water, comprising a cleaning liquid tank (9) for collecting warm cleaning liquid, an intermediate tank (10) which is connected via a pipe (101) with the cleaning liquid tank (9), a pump (8) arranged in the pipe (101) which conveys at least part of the warm cleaning liquid from the cleaning liquid tank (9) into the intermediate tank (10), and a heat exchanger (4) which is connected, on the one hand, via a fresh water pipe (14) equipped with a volume controlling valve (1) to a fresh water connection for cold water and, on the other hand, to the intermediate tank (10) containing the warm cleaning liquid, a drain valve (12) being provided at the outlet of the heat exchanger (4) in the cleaning liquid guidance so that there flows through the heat exchanger (4) either substantially the same volume of cold fresh water as warm cleaning liquid from the intermediate tank (10), or only warm cleaning liquid wit

Abstract: In a group of blinds each blind consists of a number of thin slats suspended from a horizontal shaft. The slats are attached to cords fixed to the shaft and the slats are turnably adjustable by rotating the shaft, which is connected to both a hand-operated mechanism and automatic drive unit. Said automatic drive unit is provided with a torque limiting device. Moreover, a timing device is connected to said drive unit for all blinds in the group for automatic actuation of all said drive units at determined points of time and setting of the slats in all blinds to closed or open position irrespective of their existing position set by said hand-operated mechanism.

Abstract: A device for the calibration of the safe load indicating apparatus on cranes and derricks that have a pivoted, extensible boom luffed by a hydraulic ram. The device operates by combining electrical signals corresponding to the actual turning moment of the unloaded boom at given boom positions with generated calibration signals corresponding to the turning moment for the theoretical maximum load at the boom positions, by comparing these combined signals to the safe load signals from the crane's law generator unit and by adjusting the law generator unit accordingly.This invention relates to a method and apparatus for the calibration of safe load indicating apparatus for use with cranes, derricks and other lifting apparatus of the type having a pivoted, extensible boom which can be luffed by an hydraulic ram or other boom supporting means.

Abstract: A crane load indicator in which actual loading is determined by a strain transducer as a function of shear stress on a crane boom. A resultant actual loading signal is compared with a computed signal representative of the maximum crane loading for the prevailing conditions and the two signals are compared to provide an indication of available lifting capacity.
