Abstract: An overflow protection device includes a valve body having an inlet conduit passing vertically therethrough. The inlet conduit includes an outlet end below a valve chamber. A valve within the valve chamber is movable between and open and closed position. A float is pivotally mounted below the valve and the float cams, an actuator upwardly when the float experiences a less than full tank and cams the actuation downwardly to permit the valve to move downwardly when the float rises to a predetermined level as it floats on the liquid within the tank.

Abstract: A flexible buss bar adapted for electrical connection with circuitry carried by a glass pane is provided, as well as a method of attaching a flexible buss bar to a glass pane. The flexible buss bar includes a flexible conductor having at least one metallic contact pad affixed thereto. It is also contemplated to have a plurality of such metallic contact pads attached at regular intervals along the length of the flexible conductor. The spacing of the plurality of metallic contact pads is selected to match the locations of corresponding structures formed on the glass pane. Solder cladding is selectively adhered to portions of the at least one metallic contact such that the at least one metallic contact pad may be bonded to the corresponding structure located on the glass pane.

Abstract: A machine for the manufacture of twisted pastry bars comprises coplanar and spaced-apart supply and discharge belts, the supply belt being advanced intermittently to convey a strip of dough to a cutting station where the strip is cut into successive, transversely extending ribbons. Pairs of facing upper and lower conveyor belts are positioned between the supply and discharge belts, the conveyor belts defining therebetween a coplanar bed for conveying the successive ribbons to the discharge belt which supports and removes the twisted bars. While the ribbons are entrained by the facing conveyor belts, they are gripped at spaced positions against transverse displacement.
