Abstract: Apparatus is provided for an electrical circuit breaker for preventing the handle thereof from being moved to the OFF position when the electrical contacts of the circuit breaker are welded closed. This apparatus mechanically limits the travel of the operating handle so that it may not be moved to the OFF position when the electrical contacts are closed. This restrictor apparatus as it is called is mechanically connected to, but out of direct contact with the handle arm of the circuit breaker. The mechanical linkage between the operating handle and the contact arm of the circuit breaker includes a projection. During the foregoing condition, the projection will interact with a crossbar assembly for the contact arm of the circuit breaker.

Abstract: A method for making a hydrotreating catalyst wherein the catalyst is prepared by mixing a peptized hydrated supporting oxide with a hydrated Group IVB metal oxide gel promoter. The Group VIII metals are mixed in with the Group IVB metal oxide gel promoter. A solution containing a soluble Group VIB metal and a basic compound is added. The catalyst is used for hydrodenitrogenation and Ramsbottom Carbon Residue reduction of a hydrocarbon feedstock.

Abstract: A high chair and/or booster seat is disclosed which comprises two modular side panels, a modular back panel, a modular seat panel, and a tray which is easily assembled and disassembled by interlocking side panels without the use of screws or the like. To assemble, the back panel is interlocked between the two side panels and the seat is interlocked with the side panels and back panel. The seat is adjustable in height to three different positions. The tray is removably secured to the upper edges of the side panels and is adjustable to three different positions along the upper edges of said side panels. A harness system is provided for securing the seat to an adult chair and for securing the child within the chair. The seat may be used alone with or without the tray or may be secured to an adult chair and used with or without the tray.

Abstract: The present invention is a method of creating a ring surrounding a chip carrier having a lead frame premolded to a carrier body or housing. The ring is comprised of a first premolded section having a first predetermined shape and a second premolded section having a second predetermined shape. A non-conductive adhesive material is applied to a mating side of each of said sections. These first and second sections are combined to form the ring in which certain portions of the first section mate into the second section through matching holes in the metal lead frame of the chip carrier package. The resulting chip carrier ring is positioned in a short distance from the carrier body relative to the length of any of the four sides of the carrier body in order to gain mechanical strength provided by the plurality of leads, thus avoiding the substantial bending of individual leads.

Abstract: A convertible harness structure for fishing lures including an integral wire body bent at four spaced areas along the wire body to provide a three leg harness of generally U-shaped configuration with one leg being in a plane offset from a common plane determining the other two connected legs, with two of the bent areas serving to respectively receive the end of a fishing line and a spinner lure and the other bent areas being offset to accommodate the shank of a hook intertwined with the one offset leg.

Abstract: Improvement in healing of wounds of the corneal stroma is obtained by placing into the wounds a corneal mortar composition comprising an extracellular matrix material and an ophthalmologically compatible carrier material, the composition having a sufficiently high viscosity to retain it within the wound under wound-healing conditions.

Abstract: A new and improved basketball gripping glove or gripping glove for any similar size spherical object or ball to be worn by a Basketball player or other athlete. The glove is constructed of a wrist anchor strap with a plurality of five elastomeric bands extending therefrom the other end of the bands being each attached to a single finger cowl for the five fingers of ones hand. The finger cowls are constructed of a material possessing a high coefficient of friction. The elastomeric bands must possess a sufficient coefficient of elasticity to retain the finger cowls over the finger tips and in direct abutment thereto. The anchor strap can be made of leather or other similar stretch resistant material. The strap is fastened by means of a buckle or loop and hook material. This glove allows one to grip a basketball with one hand in order to facilitate pass fakes and various other Basketball moves including "dunking".

Abstract: An improved microprocessor-controlled sonar depth sounder, which is automatically operative to detect and lock to the bottom of a body of water, fill in the display below the detected bottom, change display scales in response to the detected bottom going off-scale, and reformat the entire display in response to a scale change. A memory is provided for storing target data up to the operable depth limits of the device, thereby allowing display reversing and display expansion or "zoom" of a predetermined portion of the display selected by a zoom cursor. The zoom or cursor is variably positionable at different depths. The device employs an improved variable sensitivity amplifier. Also disclosed is an improved water-resistant switch construction for marine electronic equipment.

Abstract: An improved metalcutting insert which incorporates a polycrystalline diamond or a polycrystalline cubic boron nitride material therein as a cutting edge material. The insert substrate includes integral chip control features which eliminate the need for the use of separately attached mechanical chipbreakers.

Abstract: A toilet seat lifting aid includes a circular lifting element which projects outwardly in a horizontal direction laterally away from the seat so that the seat can be raised or lowered without directly touching the same. The lifting element is connected to a support which, in turn, carries a quantity of pressure-sensitive adhesive for quick installation of the lifting element to a peripheral, bottom side portion of the seat. In preferred forms, the lifting element has a smoothly rounded outer edge and is pivotally interconnected with the support for rotation relative to the seat when accidentally brushed against by the user's legs in order to avoid abrasion of the skin.

Abstract: A system for evaluating nervous system function of a subject including generally an accelerometer sensor, a stimulus electrode assembly, and a portable device to which the sensor and electrode assembly are connected. The sensor measures the magnitude of the (stimulus evoked) movement of a body part of the subject along at least one axis of three dimensional space. The device contains electrical circuits for processing data from the sensor, generating stimuli to the electrode assembly, and timing both the extraction of sensor information and the delivery of stimuli. The sensor has a suction chamber for attaching the sensor to the desired body part site by static suction. To evaluate the nervous system function the magnitude of the monitored sensed (acceleration) movement is compared with a control value. When the nervous system being evaluated is the peripheral nerve of one side of the face, the control value can be determined by evoking and measuring movement on the opposite side of the face.

Abstract: User reconfigurable novelty glasses include separate eye frames and separate temple pieces that may be readily combined with each other and with other separate eye frames and separate temple pieces by the user to form a variety of outrageously designed novelty sunglasses. Each eye frame may be used for either the user's right or left eye and each temple piece may be used over either the user's right or left temple and ear. Eye frame designs include simulated representations of a watch, a television set, a box of popcorn, a grand piano and the like, while the temple pieces include simulated representations of a lighting bolt, a pencil, a toothbrush and the like.
