Abstract: Plastisols useful for automobile undercoatings, anti-noise compositions, adhesives, sealing compositions and coatings for untreated, pretreated, phosphated, primed and prelacquered metal bases are improved by the addition of coke dust and coal dust fillers. The carbon dust fillers have a particle size of about 0.5 to 1000 microns and they are used in a concentration of about 9 to 90% by weight based on the total weight of plastisol and carbon dust. The carbon dust filled plastisols have a specific gravity of about 1.1 to 1.3.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for testing the mechanical strength of a solderless electrical connection having a clamp deformable to retain a bundle of wires against a pin has a double-T-shaped cross piece over which a clamp to be tested is slided. The cross piece has a vertical bore therein for receiving a pressure-applying die for subjecting the clamp to a test pressure. The die is actuated by a motor-driven spindle and a transducer transforms the applied pressure to a voltage for display. Pressure is applied following a pre-determined curve corresponding to worst cast configurations of a wire bundle which may result in failure of the clamp to securely retain the bundle.

Abstract: A hydraulic drive mechanism for a chucking device on a workpiece spindle on a gear hobbing machine. A chucking piston is movable back-and-forth in the chucking cylinder and rotates with the workpiece spindle. Pressure medium is fed through a nonrotating supply member, for example, a connecting sleeve. The chucking cylinder is secured to the face plate so that the cylinder end plate which seals off the connecting piece forms a planar surface with the surface of the face plate. Pressure medium is supplied to the chucking cylinder through flexible hoses.

Abstract: A drive mechanism for a spindle of a tool machine, in particular a tool machine having a hob rotatably mounted thereon. Worm gearing is provided for driving the workpiece relative to the hob. Clearance is normally provided between the teeth on the worm and the teeth on the worm gear. Structure is provided for eliminating the clearance so that the drive of the workpiece is a positive drive and no errors exist due to the clearance normally provided between the teeth on the gear and the worm gear. In the particular embodiment disclosed in this application, a second worm is provided and is driven by the first-mentioned worm and worm gearing. The helix angle on the second worm lies outside of the automatic locking area and, in turn, acts onto a braking mechanism.

Abstract: Adjusting device for an oscillating workpiece. In one type of gear grinding machine, there is provided means for effecting oscillation of the workpiece simultaneously and in synchronism with reciprocation thereof in order to enable a substantially involute curve to be ground onto the workpiece by a grinding wheel which is fixed excepting for its rotation. In such machine, this oscillation is created by at least one cam fixed to the workpiece spindle together with at least two bands fixed at one of their respective ends to such cam and at the other of their respective ends to a fixed portion of the machine with the bands being wrapped in opposite directions at least partially around such cam. Thus, sidewise reciprocating movement of the workpiece spindle effects oscillation of same in a known manner according to the curve provided on said cams.
