Abstract: A mounting apparatus is provided to readily fix a data storage device defining at least one hole in place. The mounting apparatus includes a bracket holding the storage device, a securing plate, and a pole coupled to the securing plate. The bracket defines at least one through hole corresponding to the hole of the storage device, and a positioning plate defining a sliding groove extends perpendicularly from the bracket. At least one post extends from the securing plate, and engages in the corresponding hole of the storage device to fasten the storage device. One end of the pole is pivotably mounted on the bracket, and the other end of the pole extends though the sliding groove of the positioning plate, and is slidable in the sliding groove to control the post of the securing plate to engage or disengage the hole of the storage device.

Abstract: A hollow fibre membrane module with a fixed structure comprises: a bearing shell (7), an inlet (8), a concentrated water outlet (10), a produced water outlet (9), a central tube (1) and hollow fibre membranes (6), in which the hollow fibre membranes (6), the central tube (1) and the bearing shell (7) are fixed together, the inlet (8) is located at one end of the hollow fibre membranes (6), the concentrated water outlet (10) is located at the other end of the hollow fibre membranes (6), the produced water outlet(s) (9) is(are) located at one end or both ends of the central tube (1), and there are small holes drilled on the side wall of the central tube (1). The module also comprises at least one separate fixed ring(s)(2) for fixing the hollow fibre membranes (6), with the separate fixed ring(s)(2) fixed on the central tube (1) and the hollow fibre membranes (6) arranged in parallel through the separate fixed ring(s)(2).

Abstract: A membrane reel fixing device for a membrane strapping dispenser includes a reel pivot having its outer circumference formed integral with three support ribs respectively connected with a convex holding plate extending along the circumference of the reel pivot. The three holding plates have their lower sides suspended in midair; therefore, when pressed diametrically, the holding plates can be elastically shifted and deformed and after a membrane reel is fitted on the reel pivot, the holding plates can firmly prop the inner wall of the central tube of the membrane reel. Different-sized membrane reels can be firmly fitted on the reel pivot by means of the holding plates that can be elastically shifted and deformed.

Abstract: A brake device for a strap-reel frame is installed on the frame body of the strap-reel frame for braking the inner and the outer disc pivotally fitted on the horizontal shaft of the frame body. The brake device includes a swinging rod having one end pivotally connected with a preset portion of the frame body above the horizontal shaft and able to be actuated to swing downward by its own gravity. The swinging rod has its intermediate portion fixed with two brake blocks able to be moved downward together with the swinging rod to push against the outer circumferential edge of the inner disc and stop the inner disc from rotating.

Abstract: A membrane packing dispenser includes a rotary shaft sleeve and a holding sleeve. The cylindrical portion of the rotary shaft sleeve is step-shaped and formed with a lower portion to be fitted with a membrane reel and an upper portion for receiving the cylindrical portion of the holding sleeve. The lower portion of the rotary shaft sleeve has its outer wall bored with plural slots respectively disposed therein with a tightening plate having its upper opposite sides respectively fixed with an engage projection. Thus, the lower portion of the rotary shaft sleeve can be firmly engaged with the end of a membrane reel by the engage projections of the tightening plates. The engage projections can be elastically adjusted to shift; therefore, the rotary shaft sleeves are applicable to various membrane reels with a little difference in size.

Abstract: A label maker includes a housing, a tape-roll wheel holder, a label guide roller unit, a synchronous gear unit, a stripping guide member, a changeover stopper and a press-and-deliver device. After a label-tape roll is fitted on the tape-roll wheel holder, the label paper of the label-tape roll is pulled out and inserted in the label guide roller unit. The label and the separable paper of the label paper can be separated from each other by timely shifting the position of the change-over stopper and then respectively guided to a label guiding outlet and a separable-paper guiding outlet. The label guided out of the label-guiding outlet is pressed and pasted on an article by the label press roller of the label press roller unit. The press-and-deliver lever can be pressed to automatically guide labels out for use.

Abstract: A tape-roll supporting device consists of a shaft, a threaded tube and two side covers. The shaft is to be assembled on a machine body and the threaded tube is rotatably fitted around the outer side of the shaft for fitting and positioning thereon a tape roll of different widths. The two side covers are respectively bored with a threaded hole in the center to be threadably combined with the opposite ends of the threaded tube. The two side covers can be rotatably adjusted in position to closely clamp the tape roll fitted on the threaded tube between them, enabling a tape roll of different widths to be steadily fitted and positioned thereon.

Abstract: A strapping packaging device includes a compressing device, a cutting device, a strap-rolling device and a strap-pressing device. The eccentric cam of the compressing device is actuated to rotate by an operating rod, and the eccentric cam presses down a slide base together with a press block to compress on the strap-clamping member of a packaging strap. The strapping packaging device can not only precisely compress on the strap-clamping member, but also cut off the packaging strap easily at the same time.

Abstract: A film-chamber cover of an advanced photo system (APS) camera is for indicating whether a film cassette is loaded within a film chamber of the APS camera or not. The film-chamber cover includes: a bottom cover furnished with a viewing window, an upper cover furnished with a shaft hole, a moving shaft slidably connected with the shaft hole between the upper and bottom covers, and a swing plate formed with characteristic symbols thereon. The swing plate is pivoted to the bottom cover and is driven by a restoring member such that when the film chamber is not loaded with a film cassette, the swing plate can be restored to a position where a symbol indicating emptiness of the chamber aligns the window of the bottom cover.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a novel process for preparing certain piperidine derivatives which are useful as antihistamines, antiallergy agents and bronchodilators, these piperidine derivatives can be described by the following formulas: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 represents hydrogen or hydroxy;R.sub.2 represents hydrogen; orR.sub.1 and R.sub.2 taken together form a second bond between the carbon atoms bearing R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 ;n is an integer of from 1 to 5;R.sub.3 is --CH.sub.2 OH, --COOH or --COOalkyl wherein the alkyl moiety has from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and is straight or branched;each of A is hydrogen or hydroxy; andpharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates and individual optical isomers thereof.
