Abstract: A bicycle front derailleur includes a frame bracket for fixing the derailleur to a bicycle frame, a cage plate for guiding a chain among a plurality of chainwheels, and a radial adjustment mechanism for adjusting a position of the cage plate substantially radially relative to the chainwheels. In a more specific embodiment, a derailleur bracket fixes the cage plate to the frame bracket, wherein the derailleur bracket defines a derailleur bracket opening. A bushing is disposed in the derailleur bracket opening. The bushing defines a bushing opening such that the bushing has an eccentric shape relative to the bushing opening. A fastener extends through the bushing opening for fastening the bushing to the frame bracket. Thus, rotation of the bushing varies the position of the derailleur bracket and hence the position of the cage plate relative to the chainwheels.

Abstract: A bicycle front derailleur includes a base member for attachment to a bicycle frame, a chain guide for guiding a chain laterally inwardly and outwardly of the bicycle frame, an inner link member having a first end pivotably coupled to the base member and a second end coupled to the chain guide, an outer link member having a first end pivotably coupled to the base member and a second end coupled to the chain guide, biasing means for biasing the chain guide laterally inwardly, and an actuating arm fixed to the outer link member for integral movement therewith. The actuating arm extends laterally outwardly from the outer link member so that pulling the actuating arm upwardly causes the chain guide to move laterally outwardly.

Abstract: An electric vacuum cleaner comprising a floor nozzle connected to a lower part of a main body of the electric vacuum cleaner and having a suction opening opened on a lower surface of the floor nozzle, a rotary brush disposed in the suction opening, a driving source, a power transmission system which transmits power from the driving source to the rotary brush, and a changeover unit which connects or disconnects power transmission of the power transmission system, wherein the changeover unit is provided with an operation pedal, which is manipulated to connect or disconnect the power, on a rear portion of the floor nozzle. It is possible for an operator to instantaneously turn on and off the driving of the rotary brush only by stepping down or lifting up the pedal while gripping the handle at rear side of the main body of the cleaner without stopping the movement of the cleaner.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved fire alarm system for an information providing system having a plurality of terminal devices for providing information to a plurality of operators, respectively. The fire alarm system is provided with a fire detecting sensors. If a fire is detected, a predetermined signal is transmitted to a controller. The controller controls each of the plurality of terminal devices to indicate an alarm information to the operator when the predetermined signal is received.

Abstract: A process for separating cyclohexanol and other impurities from a mixture containing cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol is disclosed.
