Abstract: A straddle mount electrical connector with fusible elements is provided. The electrical connector can include a connector housing including a housing body that supports element support members that define a receptacle configured to receive a complementary electrical component therein. Each element support member can support a respective plurality of fusible elements, and each fusible element can be connected to a respective electrical contact supported by the connector housing. The pluralities of fusible elements can define a mounting interface of the electrical connector. The mounting interface can be configured to receive printed circuit boards of varying thicknesses.

Abstract: A command line utility is described that overlays the management infrastructure of an enterprise to provide easier command options for administrators to effectively manage the enterprise. The primary intent of the command line utility is to facilitate management of the environment without requiring administrators to write scripts or navigate a vast schematized enterprise exposed through the management infrastructure. The command line utility provides command options through class aliases that enable the mapping of management queries and operations to a common term or friendly name that can be extended both in an alias file or at run time in the command line.

Abstract: A shoe attachment device for cleaning marks from smooth surface floors includes an abrasive pad and a fastening mechanism attached thereto for removably fastening the abrasive pad to a shoe bottom. The abrasiveness of the pad being sufficient to remove scuff marks, but not sufficient to mar, remove, or diminish a floor's finish before a mark is completely removed.

Abstract: A method, in a data processing system, of imposing constraints on data files which are changed by update statements, includes the steps of: a) identifying a particular object of the update O.sub.x and a particular attribute being updated; b) finding an applicable constraint based on the particular attribute being updated; c) converting the particular update object O.sub.x to at least one other object which is in the applicable constraint and is different than the update object O.sub.x ; and, d) generating an error message, if after the update, the applicable constraint is not satisfied by any object from the converting step.

Abstract: A hypodermic syringe including a connector member for securing the proximal end of a hollow needle to the distal end of the syringe and a hollow protective elastomeric sleeve having a closed end and an open end, the open end having an inside diameter which is less than the outside diameter of the connector member. A shoulder is formed about the exterior of the open end of the protective sleeve forming a resilient deformable end section on the sleeve which is deformable to grippingly engage the outside of the connector member. An enlarged hollow truncated conical shaped guide member is secured to the sleeve to guide the sharp pointed hollow needle into the open end of said elastomeric sleeve to shield the hand of a health care worker against needle stick injuries.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a locking pinch clip useful for securing plastic bags or securing one article to another and the like. The pinch clip consists of integral rigid plastic comprising a base, an upright locking means, and a resiliently hinged diagonal member adapted to pinch toward the base to engage and lock with the upright locking means.

Abstract: In the long wall mining of coal, a sectional pan-line is positioned along the working face of the coal seam parallel with the working face. The pan-line sections joined together have parallel rails along which the mining machine travels. At least one of said rails comprises a continuous gear rack at a height above ground with which a power driven gear wheel on the mining machine meshes for propelling the machine back and forth along the face of the coal. This invention is for a wheeled flat bed dolly having two parallel rails, one along each side, that are of height and width matching the rails of the pan-line. There is a support at one end of each of these rails to which the ends of the rails of the pan-line interfit with a temporary connection holding the dolly and pan-line against separation.

Abstract: A process for the production of vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal fungi comprises growing a VA mycorrhizal fungus on plant roots in nutrient film culture. The resulting mycorrhizal fungus infected plant roots are of value in producing a mycorrhizal inoculum, especially for incorporation into a plant growth medium to enhance the uptake of nutrient by plants grown therein.
