Abstract: The present invention discloses a unitary and hand held four conductor test apparatus that is designed to provide signaling operation tests on new or existing telecommunication special service circuits. The apparatus is comprised of circuitry which interconnects LEDs, a switching element and connection terminals. The apparatus terminates PBX dial tie trunk or special service circuit signaling leads at a designated "demarcation point" and it is designed to exercise or manipulate the special service circuit's associated line equipment for testing.

Abstract: An intrusion detection apparatus utilizing a plurality of bistatic pulse-overlap Doppler radar units to detect target Doppler frequency shifts in an enclosed sensitive volume and utilizing a single RF frequency with different pulse repetition rates to synchronize the bistatic receiver unit with its associated transmitter unit.

Abstract: Apparatus which controllably meters dry powder from a powder supply chamber falling through a vertically disposed axial passageway interconnecting the supply chamber with a mixing chamber therebelow for forming an air-powder mixture therein for transport to a desired site. A tapered plug member is bonded to a bimorph bender comprising a piezoelectric element bonded to each face of a thin, flat, cantilevered metallic beam which is deflectable by a dc bias or driving voltage applied to the bender to cause the tapered plug to penetrate or move within the passageway, thus varying width of annular gap formed between the plug and passageway, and hence, amount of powder capable of falling therethrough. An oscillating voltage may be impressed upon the piezoelectric elements to cause the deflected beam to additionally be vibratorily displaced in accordance with the frequency of vibrations of the impressed oscillating source.

Abstract: A flexible shaft has its outermost layer of windings provided with a helical gap along length of the shaft. The helical gap is formed by a flexible shaft winding machine which is programmed to uniformly intermittently discontinue coiling the windings very closely in the outermost layer to thereby uniformly leave a continuous helical space along the shaft length which forms the helical gap. A smooth-bore nut has a pair of transversely disposed pins or screws extending partially thereinto for engaging the helical gap to cause the nut to travel along an unlimited length of a rotating flexible shaft which may be curved. The pins or screws are spaced to ride in the helical gap a pitch distance apart.

Abstract: An aqueous solution containing a cellulose ether in an amount of from about 0.25 to about 2.0% by weight and a wetting agent of from about 0.10 to about 0.5% by weight is described. The solution may be applied to stockpiles of aggregate materials at a rate of from about 0.05 to about 0.20 gallons per square foot of surface area to control the release of dust therefrom when subjected to high winds.

Abstract: A sleeve member interconnects an upper and lower length of replacement casing, which lengths are associated with the vehicle speedometer and transmission respectively. The upper length is crimped into one end of the sleeve member while the lower length is slidably adjustable with the remaining portion thereof. By a series of process steps, the interconnected lengths of replacement casing will contain a replacement rotatable flexible shaft cable therein, which cable is provided with a square tipped cable fitting at each end thereof, one of which operatively engages the vehicle speedometer while the other engages the transmission. By virtue of the slidably adjustable lower casing length within the sleeve member, proper protrusion of the cable fitting square tips is insured. The adjustable length of casing may then be rigidly crimped into the sleeve member.

Abstract: Densified regions are formed in a low integrity dry-formed nonwoven fibrous web by embossing a front surface of the web with spaced-apart raised surfaces of an embossing roll. The web is embossed to the extent that the densified regions will transmit a treating fluid completely through their thickness to the front surface of the web while non-densified or high loft regions will not. Simultaneously with the embossing, treating fluid from a treating fluid conveying surface is applied to a rear surface of the web. The fluid migrates completely through the thickness of the web to the front surface in substantially only the densified regions of the web.The product of this invention is a dry-formed web having a basis weight in the range of about 0.5 oz./yds..sup.2 to about 8.0 oz./yds..sup.2. A surface of the web has an undulate profile including high loft regions and valley regions. The density of the web in the high loft regions is less than about 0.10 gr.

Abstract: A device for preventing the stealing of a motor vehicle of the type having a steering wheel mounted in front of a panel such as the instrument panel or dashboard of an automobile or motor boat.
