A system is provided for heating and storing a liquid within a tank. Disposed within the tank is a heating unit which effects stratification of the tank into upper and lower liquid storage sections whereby the liquid in the upper storage section is at a first predetermined temperature which is higher than the temperature of the liquid within the lower storage section. A first control element is operatively connected to the heating unit and controls the operation thereof so as to maintain the liquid in the upper storage section at the first predetermined temperature. The upper and lower storage sections are interconnected by a passage assembly. The passage assembly includes a pump for effecting controlled circulation of the liquid from the upper storage section to the lower storage section. The operation of the pump is controlled by a second control element which is responsive to the temperature of the liquid in the lower storage section and thus, maintains a predetermined temperature differential between the liquids stored in the two tank sections. A liquid outlet communicates with at least one tank storage section and a liquid inlet communicates with at least one tank storage section.

Motion furniture seating having an ottoman assembly including a main ottoman and a mid-ottoman and wherein each of the ottomans includes a foot supporting panel and side panels. When the assembly is retracted the mid-ottoman nests inside the main ottoman beneath the seat and when the assembly is extended the foot supporting panels lie in substantially the same plane as a continuation of the seat and the side panels extend downwardly from the foot supporting panels and essentially hide the mechanism which carries the ottomans and inhibits access to the mechanism by a child or animal so as to avoid injury.
摘要:
Fecal leakage and contamination from the vent opening of an animal carcass during slaughtering and processing methods is reduced or eliminated by applying a curable adhesive composition to the vent opening and permitting the applied curable composition to cure to form a cured firmly adherent vent seal after slaughtering but prior to other processing steps. In a preferred embodiment, the curable adhesive comprises a cyanoacrylate adhesive which cures in a matter of seconds under processing conditions to form a cured vent seal which retains its sealing integrity even upon exposure to high temperature and high humidity environments encountered at downstream processing stations. The curable sealing compositions are safe in the fully-cured state and do not liberate undesirable materials during curing.

System and method for dispensing liquids into concrete mixer drums, particularly suitable for use on concrete mix trucks, involve use of liquid admixtures nozzle that is separate from water conduit and water nozzle, the admixtures nozzle being aimed and focused to spray through drum opening with dispersion pattern substantially within air/concrete interface defined by minimal volume concrete contained within the drum; and the water conduit or nozzle having a dispersion pattern preferably whereby wash water hits a portion of the inner drum wall and a portion of the air/concrete interface defined by a maximum amount of concrete contained within the drum. In preferred embodiments, a check valve assembly is used to connect separate admixture and water lines, so that both admixture and water nozzles can be used simultaneously during purging operation.
摘要:
A modular furniture seating section having a pair of side rails that define a base for the section and a pair of reclining mechanisms, one mounted on each of the side rails. Each of the mechanisms includes a seat mounting link which together carry a seat frame that in turn carries the seat of the chair. An ottoman linkage is mounted on the front of the seat mounting link in each mechanism and together they carry the ottoman which moves between retracted and extended positions. The mechanisms also include a backrest linkage which carries the backrest frame that, in turn, carries the backrest. On one side only of the chair an arm panel is secured to the seat frame and moves together with the seat in fixed relationship thereto as the chair moves between upright and reclined positions. On the same side as the arm panel, a backrest side wing is mounted on the backrest frame so as to move with it. The arm panel and backrest wing are disposed on the side of the chair section which forms an end of a modular furniture grouping.

摘要:
An improved heating and cooling system for an associated home or office environment is provided which facilitates efficiency and enhances overall system operation. The operative elements of the heating and cooling system including a compressor, desuperheater, pump, water heater tank, blower, heat exchange unit and central electrical control unit are all contained in a single, common cabinet providing thermal and noise insulation and drain pan-spillage containment. Ambient and stand-by thermal loss is minimized by reason of the cabinet and the proximity of the operative elements therein. Facilitation of the desuperheating function is further provided through defining three distinct water temperature layers within the water heater tank and maintaining predetermined water temperatures within those layers through selective operation of the desuperheater and a bypass arrangement. Internal temperature maintenance in the associated home or office environment is further facilitated through cut-off of the desuperheater function when maximal heat transfer to the environment is desired. Optimization of the energy imparted by water heating elements within the water heater tank provides for improved overall efficiency and reduced operating costs.
摘要:
Apparatus for pushing or pulling a pipe, rod or the like through subterranean areas, such as beneath sidewalks, roadways, etc. It is lowered into a pit and braced against opposing walls thereof by jacking out an extensible frame. Once positioned within the pit, a motor and pump unit supplies hydraulic fluid under pressure to a hydraulic cylinder which reciprocates through a lever arm a gripping means slidably mounted on the frame. When moved in one direction, the gripping means grips the pipe or rod while when moved in the other direction it disengages from the pipe or rod. The pipe or rod is thereby driven longitudinally into the ground. To pull the pipe or rod, the gripping direction of the gripping means is reversed by shifting the gripping member.
