Abstract:
A shredder structure, components, and sub-combinations thereof, useful for shearing, shredding, and/or chopping a variety of materials such as municipal and industrial solid waste products, vehicle tires, and other materials desired to be comminuted. The hopper of the structure is preferably hinged to provide easy access to the made-up shaft. The shaft carries a series of rotating bladeholders keyed to the shaft and provided with radial protrusions and contiguous slots accommodating fitted-blade placement. The rotating bladeholders are spaced apart by spacers which serve not only to mutually space the rotating bladeholders, but also to support the sides of the rotating blades so as to form with the bladeholder slot pockets or seats for such blades. Particular support structure is used for the stationary blade employed, with which the individual rotating blades on each bladeholder co-act.
Abstract:
Structure for preparing heterogeneous refuse material in a manner conducive to relatively inexpensive and direct, further processing. A principal portion of the structure includes a revolving chamber having a central fixed shaft provided with an auger end. A fixed ring portion cooperates with such auger end and is disposed in proximity with the revolving chamber such that the auger may force-feed the chamber with incoming refuse. Impact or mauling-arm means are provided within the revolving chamber for effectively mauling the material passing therethrough, as by gravity feed, so that bundles of garbage tend to be broken-up. In a preferred form of the invention conveyor means are provided for separating out ferrous metals and air-classifying the remaining refuse for further processing.
Abstract:
Cutting or shearing structure wherein cutter or shearing blades are revolvably mounted yet pinned to hubs keyed to a central shaft. The shaft of hub structure is constructed for elimination of broken shear pin points. The shear pins themselves are disposed transversely relative to the shaft and are so positioned as to prevent lateral play of the blade ends as these pass through the spaces between operatively associated cutter blades.
Abstract:
A uniform light source having a substrate for providing structural and functional support to the assembly. A bottom reflector provided on the substrate. A plurality of solid state light sources provided in an opening of the bottom reflector for providing a point light source. A plurality of light films and having light redirecting areas provided between the plurality of solid state light sources for redirecting and spreading the point light source to a uniform plane of light; a joining clip comprising a top capping portion and a bottom support portion, the bottom support portion being aligned perpendicular to the top capping portion and having a height sufficient to house the plurality of light films. A top diffuser for diffusing the uniform plane of light. The plurality of light films has a thickness between 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm. In addition, the joining clip further comprises a light diffusion means.
Abstract:
A light redirecting film comprises a light exit surface bearing (a) optical elements and (b) an optical modification layer containing microbeads and a binder disposed over the optical elements wherein said light redirecting film has an optical gain of at least 1.20.
Abstract:
Scanner density values of a digitized image of an original film are processed so that a projection of the digitized image closely matches that image which a film projector would produce when projecting the original film. A method comprises the steps of transforming the scanner density values to printing density values; digital color balancing by writing the printing density values and a LAD patch onto film; printing the film is printed to LAD; transforming the images from device dependent color space values into device independent color space values; carrying out a relationship between the device independent color space and a display device output to obtain RGB code values; adjusting any non-linearity between the RGB code values and the display device output; and scaling the adjusted RGB code values to an appropriate bit depth.
Abstract:
A means and method of enhancing the damage tolerance of adhesive bonds by introducing gaps in the adhesive to divide the adhesive layer into discrete regions. The gaps are created by placing strips of barrier material between the two adherends before the adhesive is put in place and cured. If the two adherends begin to debond along the interface between one of the adherends and the adhesive, the gap arrests the debonding process.
Abstract:
A color negative photographic film with at least one color record thereof having a mid-scale contrast less than or equal to 0.45, wherein the mid-scale contrast for the color record is defined as the slope of a straight line connecting a point C and and a point D on the characteristic curve of density versus log Exposure for the color record, where points C and D are located by defining a point A on the characteristic curve at a density level 0.1 above minimum density, a point B is located on the characteristic curve at an exposure value +1.0 Log Exposure beyond point A, and points C and D are located at exposure values -0.45 log Exposure and +0.45 log Exposure with respect to point B, respectively. Use of such a color negative film is particularly advantageous in making telecine transfers.

Abstract:
Reduction structure including a revolving rotor and stationary structure. The revolving rotor is notched to provide a series of cutter sockets that individually receive cutters, preferably hardened steel cutters. The cutters are arranged in their sockets such that a majority of the length thereof is disposed within each socket; thereby, bolt attachment means may be reduced in number and can conceivably be one in number per cutter. The ends of the shaft are preferably turned down for bearing support and coupling to adjacent prime mover structure. The hopper, within which the rotor as above-described is mounted, preferably includes an anti-rotation member in the form of an elongate bar having one or more declining flanges, these flanges serving to preclude counter-rotation of any element such as logs as may be introduced into such hopper. For reduction such as shearing in connection with automobile and truck tires, the clearances around the individual cutters as the same pass through notches within the stationary cutter bar employed should be reduced to not more than 1/8th of the cutter width; by this restriction the cords in tires are sharply cut and do not string out from cut segments so as to foul materials-handling machinery, screens, and so forth, as may subsequently be used.
