| 20090056263 | Cavity wall spacer, building structure and method - A cavity wall spacer, building structure, and method are disclosed. The cavity wall spacer determines a separation of building elements of two leaves of a wall. The cavity wall spacer comprises: a support body; and a plurality of spaced projections upstanding from the support body and operable to extend across a cavity between the leaves, each projection having a recessed channel operable to inhibit transfer of moisture from one end of each projection to another. The recessed channel prevents the passage of moisture along the length of the projection to prevent moisture from traveling between the two leaves of the wall, and reduces the amount of moisture which drips into the cavity. The recessed channel has no external obstructions and thus allows significantly improved stacking density. The projections are less prone to any damage since there are no external protrusions. | 03-05-2009 |

| 20120125904 | WELDING NOZZLE - An exemplary welding nozzle has a smooth, highly polished bore of circular cross-section. The bore has a forward portion of generally flared, gradually curving shape, joined with a narrowing inner portion along a gradual curve. Hence a concentrated surface flow of shielding gas may be directed out the nozzle's mouth to reliably provide a flared shielding envelope having reinforced boundaries. The inner portion tapers inwardly at a constant angle for a length sufficient to dampen flow disturbances. Hence an inner core of shielding gas of high ionization potential may be directed in laminar flow out the nozzle's mouth for concentration immediately about the exposed electrode to stabilize the electric arc at the electrode tip. The diverging gas flows enable significantly reduced gas consumption while reliably maintaining weld quality, a reduced rate of spatter buildup within the nozzle, and increased versatility of welding tip operation in both automated and manual environments. | 05-24-2012 |
