Abstract: Various shaped abrasive particles are disclosed. Each shaped abrasive particle includes a body having at least one major surface and a side surface extending from the major surface.

Abstract: Two plies (12, 14) woven from synthetic yarns (18) are joined together to define a single, two-ply surgical wrapper (10) which may be used to wrap a surgical pack (50) with only the single wrapper (10) to provide the effect of a sequential wrap.

Abstract: Leveling arms for a low profile room air conditioner which are pivotally mounted to a side of an air conditioner housing at an inner end and have an arcuate slotted opening adjacent an outer end. A threaded fastener or clamping bolt is threaded into the air conditioner housing and extends through the arcuate opening. The threaded fastener is loosened to allow the position of the associated arm to be adjusted. The arms have an inner surface providing a series of radial teeth which mesh with like teeth on the outer surface of the housing when the threaded fastener is tightened, thereby retaining the arms in the desired position.

Abstract: A room air conditioner for mounting in a window opening having a vertically sliding lower sash. The enclosure for the unit has front and rear portions separated by the vertical plane of the window opening, the compressor and condenser heat exchanger being mounted in the rear portion, and the evaporator heat exchanger being mounted in the front portion. A motor that is connected to an axial flow fan at one end and a coaxial centrifugal blower wheel at the other end is also located in the rear portion. The axial flow fan is operatively associated with the condenser heat exchanger and the centrifugal blower wheel is operatively associated with the evaporator heat exchanger. The forward enclosure portion and the evaporator heat exchanger extend above the bottom of the bottom rail of the lower sash, and the rear housing portion and the condenser heat exchanger extend above the bottom rail of the lower sash and substantially below the level of the window sill.

Abstract: A control module is disclosed for mounting in an electrical appliance that provides a supporting base for assembly of electrical components to include control elements forming part of a control panel. The module includes a relatively flat base formed of relatively stiff, molded material with a transverse linear zone extending thereacross to divide the base into a rearward section and a forward control panel section. The linear zone is of sufficiently reduced thickness that it provides a hinge means so that the front and rear sections may be pivoted relative to one another between a relatively flat assembly condition and a final mounting condition. After assembly and flexing of the sections, the module may be mounted in an appliance with the front section serving as a portion of a manually operable control panel for the appliance.

Abstract: A control arrangement for translating substantially linear motion includes a control device, a controlled device, and a mechanical link interconnected between said control device and said controlled device. The mechanical link comprises a spring strip having an arcuate cross section. The control device comprises an arrangement for moving the strip substantially linearly in a given direction at the control device. The control arrangement further comprises at least one guide arrangement for bending the strip in at least one region between the control device and controlled device, to extend in a direction other than the given direction. The strip extends without support by lateral forces in at least one region between the control device and controlled device.

Abstract: A humidifier unit with a water supply reservoir, a media unit which passes through the reservoir and picks up moisture, a motor and fan unit together with drive mechanism for rotating the media unit and for blowing air through the media unit and into the surrounding area, and a removable, refillable liquid water treatment dispenser. As depicted, the humidifier is a console room humidifier with the water reservoir accessible from the rear. The removable dispenser is an auxiliary unit consisting of an elongate bottle, the cap of which carries a spring biased poppet valve with a projecting stem. The bottle is inverted and received through an opening in the top wall of the humidifier with its valve operating stem resting on an abutment above a flow passage funnel unit mounted on structure within the humidifier above the water reservoir.
