  • Patent number: 5948845
    Abstract: An organic solvent-based paint is provided which has, among other things, a perlitic component. The paint resists thermal loading and loss. A series addition of components provides the paint efficiently. The paint is useful for many substrates, including metals.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 2, 1998
    Date of Patent: September 7, 1999

  • Patent number: 4644117
    Abstract: A hollow float bulb or shell is secured to a flexible electrical cord and encloses a housing which confines an electrical switch and defines a chamber with an inwardly projecting barrier. A weight member in the form of a metal ball is disposed within the chamber and rolls over the barrier to actuate the switch in response to tilting movement of the shell and housing. In one embodiment, a shuttle in the form of a metal frame is supported within the chamber for sliding movement and carries a switch conductor element. The shuttle frame is impacted by the ball located within the frame when the ball rolls over the barrier, and the frame is restrained by magnets to produce snap actuation of the switch.
