Patent for improving acetylene gas generators.

Patent for a tire-shoe that would help reinforce damaged vehicle tires.

Patent for "improvements in puncture healing compounds". A beeswax, paraffin, rosin, and linseed oil mixture will be injected into the innertube or other air compartment of a "pneumatic tire" and will repair any punctures without deteriorating the material of the inner tube.

Patent for a new headlight design to automatically turn on the headlights with steering gear.

Patent for a fuel heating system designed to be incorporated into combustion engines.

An isolation enclosure and a group of isolation enclosures was designed which is useful when a relatively large containment area is required. The enclosure is in the form of a ring having a section removed so that a technician may enter the center area of the ring. in a preferred embodiment, an access zone is located in the transparent wall of the enclosure and extends around the inner perimeter of the ring so that a technician can insert his hands into the enclosure to reach any point within. The inventive enclosures provide more containment area per unit area of floor space than conventional material isolation enclosures.

A means is provided for compensating for third and higher order aberration in charged particle beam devices. The means includes two sextupoles with an intermediate focusing lens, all positioned between two focusing lenses.

The present invention is directed to a method for making a wide variety of general-purpose cermets and for radioactive waste disposal from ceramic powders prepared from urea-dispersed solutions containing various metal values. The powders are formed into a compact and subjected to a rapid temperature increase in a reducing atmosphere. During this reduction, one or more of the more readily reducible oxides in the compact is reduced to a selected substoichiometric state at a temperature below the eutectic phase for that particular oxide or oxides and then raised to a temperature greater than the eutectic temperature to provide a liquid phase in the compact prior to the reduction of the liquid phase forming oxide to solid metal. This liquid phase forms at a temperature below the melting temperature of the metal and bonds together the remaining particulates in the cermet to form a solid polycrystalline cermet.

A method and apparatus suitable for stabilizing hydrocarbon cores are given. Such stabilized cores have not previously been obtainable for laboratory study, and such study is believed to be required before the hydrate reserves can become a utilizable resource. The apparatus can be built using commercially available parts and is very simple and safe to operate.

Patent for Carbureter and it uses.

Patent for a more efficient air compressor with high and low pressure chambers formed of mating sections that can be detached to make repairs to the piston as necessary.

Patent for "a new and useful edge drop feeder or seeder". (line 14)

Patent for an improvement to combination battery vaults, cisterns and semaphore foundations used in railway signal systems, including illustrations and descriptions.

Patent for improvements in stenographic-writing (typewriting). The object of the invention being "to provide a keyboard comprising keys to cooperate with suitable printing means, and to so arrange said keys...to facilitate the speed at which the writing can be accomplished" (lines 14-20).

Patent for improved armor in tires so they do not puncture as quickly or as easily, including illustrations.

Patent for gearing for a flying machine. This gearing will allow for two independent drive shafts to work with tow independent engines to allow both engines to connect to either or both draft shafts.

Patent for a new drill that is used for pipes in wells, including illustrations.

Patent for a composite rock drill composed of granular metal or minerals held together in a binder to present sharp points for the efficient drilling of rock and other substances.

Patent for a combined saw gage and clamp which can be "applied to a saw blade to gage the depth of the cut as well as reversed and used as a clamp for the saw blade in setting the teeth" (lines 16-18).

Patent for an improved floor-sweeping compound which changes the traditional woody filler with a less flammable and more absorbent mineral wool filler.

Patent for a new and improved powder blower used to insert powder medicine into the vagina, including illustrations and instructions.

Patent for a new and improved horse detacher which allows the driver to unhitch a horse without exiting the carriage or wagon, including specifications and illustrations.

This paper describes an invention of a pressure measuring instrument which uses laser radiation to sense the pressure in an enclosed environment by means of measuring the change in refractive index of a gas - which is pressure dependent.

Electrorefining has been used in processes for recovering uranium and plutonium metals from spent nuclear fuel. The electrorefining is performed in an electrochemical cell in which the chopped fuel elements from the reactor forms the anode, the electrolyte, preferably, is the fused eutectic salt of the LiCl-KCl which contain UCl{sub 3} and PuCl{sub 3}. Purified metal collected at the cathode collects at the bottom of the cell. This invention provides a method for removing lithium oxide from the electrolyte salt, with the end formation of a solid lithium-aluminium alloy.
