Abstract: An electromechanical rotary latch for use in current interruption devices disclosed. In a particular embodiment, a fuse device comprises a rotary latch; a rotatable armature configured to actuate the rotary latch; and a contact configured to change between a set position that allows current flow through the fuse device and a triggered position which interrupts current flow through the fuse device; wherein the fuse device is configured such that when a threshold current level passes through the fuse device, the rotatable armature changes configuration in response to a generated electromagnetic field, which actuates the rotary latch causing the contact to transition to the triggered position.

Abstract: A tray assembly for an infant highchair, the tray assembly including a frame having front, rear, and side peripheral edge portions defining a space therebetween having a predetermined shape and size; a tray insert having front, rear, and side peripheral lip portions supporting and connected to a bottom portion located in an area defined thereby, the tray insert having a predetermined shape and extent such that the peripheral lip portions can rest on the peripheral edge portions of the frame for supporting the bottom of the tray insert in at least substantially covering relation to the space defined by the frame.

Abstract: A niobium-aluminum base alloy having improved oxidation resistance at high temperatures and consisting essentially of 48%-52% niobium, 36%-42% aluminum, 4%-10% chromium, 0%-2%, more preferably 1%-2%, silicon and/or tungsten with tungsten being preferred, and 0.1%-2.0% of a rare earth selected from the group consisting of yttrium, ytterbium and erbium. Parabolic oxidation rates, k.sub.p, at 1200.degree. C. range from about 0.006 to 0.032 (mg/cm.sup.2).sup.2 /hr. The new alloys also exhibit excellent cyclic oxidation resistance.

Abstract: An iron alloy is provided which exhibits excellent strength and toughness characteristics at cryogenic temperatures. The alloy consists essentially of about 10 to 16 percent by weight nickel, about 0.1 to 1.0 percent by weight aluminum, and 0 to about 3 percent by weight copper, with the balance being essentially iron. The iron alloy is produced by a process which includes using cold rolling at room temperature and subsequent heat treatment at temperatures ranging from 400.degree. to 650.degree. C., and possesses a fracture toughness ranging from 200 to 230 ksi .sqroot.in. and yield strengths up to 230 ksi.

Abstract: A steel alloy is produced by a process which includes using cold rolling at room temperature and subsequent heat treatment at temperatures ranging from 500.degree. to 650.degree. C.The resulting alloy exhibits excellent strength and toughness characteristics at cryogenic temperatures. This alloy consists essentially of about 10 to 16 percent by weight nickel, to about 1.0 percent by weight aluminum, and 0 to about 3 percent by weight of at least one of the following additional elements: copper, lanthanum, niobium, tantalum, titanium, vanadium, yttrium, zirconium and the rare earth metals, with the balance being essentially iron. The improved alloy possesses a fracture toughness ranging from 200 to 230 ksi.sqroot.in. and yield strengths up to 230 ksi.
