Abstract: A hybrid tea rose variety having tall, upright growth habit, buds whose opening is not impaired by cool weather in the spring season, red colored petals with defined yellow area at point of attachment, light fragrance and good resistance to rose powdery mildew.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of pear tree (Variety 282) which is useful as a size-controlling clonal pear rootstock. The new variety originated as a single seedling which was selected from a large group of pear seedlings which were grown from open-pollinated seed. This seed was harvested from Old Home pear trees (Pyrus communis) growing in an isolated planting with Farmingdale pollinizers.Pear varieties grown on the understock of this new rootstock clone are "standard" in size when planted and grown in the orchard and are of like size to trees propagated on Domestic Bartlett seedling rootstocks (Pyrus communis). This new rootstock selection can be easily increased by vegetative means; particularly by hard and softwood cuttings. It is graft-compatible with all major pear varieties. It was selected for its non-rootsuckering habit, its resistance to the Fireblight disease and its tolerance of the Pear Decline disease.

Abstract: A new spray carnation cultivar having small pink flowers of a Cerise or Rose Bengal color which are produced continuously and profusely on tall, strong, flowering stems, distinguished by a vigorous and rapid growth rate reaching a height of about one meter.

Abstract: A weigh scale apparatus in which forces caused by the applied load are transformed into moments of opposite sense and applied to opposite ends of a substantially rigid beam. Deflection of the beam is measured by centrally disposed strain gage resistors to produce an electrical signal quantity proportional to the applied load. The conversion of applied load to moments of opposite sense is accomplished by a pair of spaced parallel pivot members which are suspended by straps between the load receiving pan and the base such that the pivots tend to rotate in opposite directions. The beam is mechanically connected between the pivots such that it is subjected to the bending moment over substantially its entire length. A split scale device is provided by a composite pan, one portion of which is connected to the pivots directly and another portion of which is connected to the pivots through long lever arms to provide moment multiplication. A vibrator device for dithering the pivots is provided. .Iadd.

Abstract: A two-sided puzzle having a puzzle comprising puzzle members on each side thereof. One or more puzzle members on one side are each coupled to a puzzle member on the opposite side. The puzzle members are arranged or oriented on each side such that matching or assembling the puzzle members on one side automatically unmatches or disassembles the puzzle members on the opposite side.

Abstract: A magnetic alloy having a relatively low melting point, particularly for dental use.The low melting point magnet alloy contains one or more elements of Co and Ni, a Co content of which being in the range of 79 wt. % or less, a Ni content being in the range of 80 wt. % or less, the remainder being essentially a Pd content.

Abstract: Derivatives of the C-076 compounds are disclosed wherein the 13-position is unsubstituted or substituted by a halogen atom. The compounds are prepared by removing the glycosyl groups on the 13-position of the C-076 compounds isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces avermitilis. This is followed by substitution of the 13-hydroxy group with a halogen, and subsequent removal of the halogen. The disclosed compounds are antiparasitic, anthelmintic, insecticidal and acaracidal agents.

Abstract: This invention relates to a mode changing system for a cassette tape recorder in which operating members such as a head base plate and a pinch roller are selectively moved to one of various modes such as stopping, fast forwarding, rewinding, pausing, cueing and playing. This system comprises control means to control the operating members so as to move them to a position corresponding to a selected one of the modes. The control means is actuated by a control electric motor.

Abstract: The device, which can be used to protect the pilots of high performance aircraft against the effect of accelerations, comprises a garment having at least trousers having pockets and a control member which supplies the pockets with compressed gas when the downwardly directed acceleration of the body exceeds a predetermined threshold. The control member is adapted to establish in the trouser pockets an overpressure from a positive acceleration threshold (BC), in accordance with a substantially linear law of variation from an origin (A) corresponding to a negative acceleration. The action of the compressed gas can be supplemented by that of a liquid contained in the pockets and also subjected to the pressure of the gas.

Abstract: A garment, and method of making it, formed from a flexible material having part thereof covering a body joint subjected to stretching upon movement of the body joint in use, has a plurality of sections of flexible sheet material overlying that part of the garment to protect it against wear and arranged in overlapping relationship so that part of one section overlies part of an adjacent section and the sections lie substantially parallel to and partly in engagement with each other and partly against the surface of the garment, the sections being attached to the garment along substantially parallel spaced lines substantially perpendicular to the stretching direction so that the flexibility of the garment is not impaired in the stretching direction.

Abstract: A clothing apparel which is substantially transparent to ultra-violet light wavelengths; and, a coating applied to said fabric for preventing the transmission of light rays of a pre-determined wavelength through said fabric when said fabric is wet by water is disclosed.

Abstract: Necktie structure made of a plurality of articulated wood panels. One of the panels is shaped to simulate a four-in-hand knot portion of the necktie and a second panel is shaped to simulate the body portion of the tie. A third triangular panel is disposed in edge-to-edge relation with the lower end of the second panel. The panels are hinged together at their adjacent edges to form an articulated, coplanar structure. A flexible neckband for encircling the neck of the wearer is affixed to the undersurface of the knot-forming panel.

Abstract: Weightlifting glove apparatus is disclosed which includes a tapered wedge extending from the heel of the hand inwardly toward the inside of the palm for use in weightlifting when presses are used. The wedge allows the hand to be aligned relatively straight with the ulna and radius when pressing. Due to the bone structure of the wrist, without such wedge the hands of the weightlifter rotate inwardly so that excess pressure is placed on the radius bone in the forearm and on the muscles of the wrist and hand. The wedge in the glove raises a weightlifting bar a sufficient distance to allow the hand to remain aligned with the wrist and forearm bones to relieve excess strain which causes pain and which may cause sprains.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a portable ventilation system which can be incorporated into caps, hats or other conventional headgear. An aperture is formed in the brim or front section of a hat or cap which is adapted to receive the body of the ventilating apparatus. A direct current motor is installed at the center of the mounted body, the shaft of the motor being directly coupled to a multiple bladed impeller. A directional visor is mounted below the impeller and in juxtaposition to the user's face for directing the flow of air resulting from rotation of the impeller. The DC motor is powered by a portable battery pack. Interconnection between the motor source for the present invention and the battery pack allows the hat or cap upon which the present invention is mounted to be removed.

Abstract: The invention provides antistatic clothing suitable for wear in a room which is kept clean. The clothing, such as working clothes, work shoes, etc., manufactured from a cloth having parallel electroconductive fibers woven therein, features the incorporation of an electroconductive material at overlapped or butt-joined seams between the pieces of cloth forming the clothing to ensure a perfect electrostatic connection of all the pieces of the clothing to minimize static charging on both the clothing and the wearer's body while preventing dust from gathering on the clothing to avoid dust from becoming a cause of problems such as electrostatic breakdown of circuit elements in a semiconductor integrated circuit production plant.
