20080242754 | LOW LOSS FOAM COMPOSITION AND CABLE HAVING LOW LOSS FOAM LAYER - The invention relates to a low loss foam composition and cable, such as a coaxial cable. The foam composition is formed by heating an olefinic polymer, such as a high density polyethylene, medium density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, linear low density polyethylene, polypropylene, or a combination thereof, into a molten state composition, optionally with a nucleating agent. The molten mixture is extruded under pressure through a die with a blowing agent comprising an atmospheric gas, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen or air, and a co-blowing agent selected from hydrofluorocarbons, hydrochlorofluorocarbons, or perfluoro compounds, such as HFC-134a. The cable is formed by extruding the foam composition onto a signal carrying conductor and sheathing the foam-coated signal carrying conductor in an appropriate conducting shield. | 10-02-2008 |

20140345083 | DOOR STAY - A door stay for attachment to a door above a floor, the door stay comprising a mounting means, and a floor-contacting element rotatably mounted on said mounting means, the floor-contacting element being biased against said floor by the mounting means. Preferably, the floor-contacting element is a ball and the ball moves over the floor under tension. The door stay provides significant advantages in the positioning of a door so that it will not swing to and fro, but which can still nevertheless be swung open when desired by manual operation of the door. The door stay is attachable to the lower edge of the door, wherever required and removed when no longer required, or when it is required somewhere else. All of these features are provided in a relatively simple low cost door stay which is highly effective in practical use. | 11-27-2014 |

20100224822 | INSULATED IRON-BASE POWDER FOR SOFT MAGNETIC APPLICATIONS - The present invention relates to ferromagnetic powders with an electrically insulating layer on iron particles intended for the manufacture of components having improved soft magnetic properties at low and medium frequencies. The invention comprises an iron powder coated with a dielectric insulating layer comprising boron bearing compounds to form an insulated ferromagnetic powder. The present invention also relates to a method of making these insulated ferromagnetic powders. The present invention further relates to a method of synthesizing a product made from insulated ferromagnetic powders via a post-heat treatment at a moderate temperature (300° C. to 700° C.), to form a glass-like coating which acts as an electrical insulator. A preferred embodiment of the present invention is obtained when small amounts of alkali bearing compounds are added to the precursors to modify the coating chemistry and significantly increase the electrical resistivity after heat treatment. | 09-09-2010 |

20100308085 | Auto-Vented Automatic Stop Flow Pouring Spout - Disclosed is a pouring spout of the type comprising an inlet tube devised to be detachably connectable to the container for receiving the liquid stored therein and an outlet tube slideably connected to the inlet tube for guiding the liquid from the inlet tube to a receiving container. A liquid duct through which the liquid stored in the container can flow, is part of both the inlet tube and outlet tube. An air duct through which air can come freely inside the container, is also part of both the inlet tube and outlet tube. Such considerably reduces vacuum formation within the container and allows faster liquid transfer through the liquid duct. A valve system is provided for simultaneously opening the liquid duct and the air duct when the outlet tube is slideably moved relative to the inlet tube. An internal spring is also provided to keep the inlet and outlet tubes in such a position with respect to each other as to keep the valve system closed unless a pressure is applied to the outlet tube in order to slideably move it relative to the inlet tube. In accordance with the invention, the valve system is devised so as to cause the liquid duct and the air duct to open separately into the storing container. Such allows the liquid stored in the container to flow out freely out of the same through the liquid duct, and air to separately enter into the container via the air duct, thereby preventing any interference. | 12-09-2010 |

20130174478 | THIN WALL SAP COLLECTING DEVICE - The device is provided for collecting sap from a tapped hole of a tree. It includes a collector having a substantially frustoconical outer peripheral wall surface and an inner peripheral wall surface. The collector also has a portion that is removably insertable into the tapped hole with a frictional engagement. The material between the peripheral wall surfaces at the removably-insertable collector portion is elastically and temporality deformable in response to a peripheral pressure exerted inwardly on the outer peripheral wall surface when the removably-insertable collector portion is inserted with a forced frictional fit into the tapped hole. | 07-11-2013 |
20130193165 | AUTO-VENTED AUTOMATIC STOP FLOW POURING SPOUT - The pouring spout includes a first tube detachably connectable to a liquid-storage container, a second tube slideably connected to the first tube, and a liquid outlet duct and an air inlet duct. The liquid outlet duct and the air inlet duct can be both selectively opened and closed by a spring-biased valve system. The air inlet duct, when the valve system is moved from a closed position to an opened position, is initially made in fluid communication with the liquid-storage container only either simultaneously with the liquid outlet duct or immediately after the liquid outlet duct is initially made in fluid communication with the liquid-storage container. This arrangement prevents the liquid from filling the air inlet duct when the liquid is poured using the pouring spout. It also minimizes evaporation and permeability of the liquid on internal surfaces inside the pouring spout. | 08-01-2013 |

20100183261 | MULTIMODE FIBER OUTER CLADDING COUPLER FOR MULTI-CLAD FIBERS - A multimode fiber coupler has a structure in which a plurality of tapered pump fibers are coupled laterally to a multi-clad fiber, such as a double clad fiber (DCF). Such coupler is produced by first forming a plurality of tapered pump fibers and positioning them around the multi-clad fiber, thus forming a fiber bundle. Then, the fiber bundle is twisted and fused so that the input pump fibers converge towards a waist and then diverge from it. The diverging portions of the pump fibers may be removed from the structure. Also, at the waist, the structure may be cleaved and the portion with the converging pump fibers is then spliced with a multi-clad fiber which is similar or identical to the one in the middle of the bundle. | 07-22-2010 |
