Abstract:
A chalk line device includes a housing and a chalk line stored in the housing. The chalk line terminates in a hook at one end and the hook is disposed outside of the housing. The housing may include a side wall with a depression formed therein that is shaped to receive the hook for storage. The depression has an edge that allows the hook to securely engage. The housing may also include a translucent window for allowing the user to check the level of chalk in the chalk line device. The translucent window forms at least a portion of a wall of the housing. The translucent window can be made, for example, of a plastic and can be integrally formed with the housing.
Abstract:
The invention provides coating compositions having improved scratch and mar resistance. The curable coating compositions of the invention comprise a film-forming component (A) comprising one or more active hydrogen containing components (a), and one or more curing agents (b) comprising at least one aminoplast resin (bi) having from 0.5 to 3.5 moles of NH per mole of aminoplast resin (bi), a blocked acid catalyst (B) having a blocking agent which is not a tertiary amine, and a tertiary amine (C) present in an amount equal to 10 to 150% by weight of the blocking agent. The invention farther provides a method of making cured coated substrates having improved scratch and mar resistance as well as a method of making multilayer coating compositions.
Abstract:
A method for mounting a metal body on an essentially straight measuring tube, made of titanium or zirconium, of a Coriolis mass flowmeter. The method ensures secure retention of the metal body on the measuring tube even through very extended operation of the Coriolis mass flowmeter, in that the metal body is shrink-mounted on the measuring tube.

Description and illustration of a method for mounting a metal body (1) on an essentially straight measuring tube (2), made of titanium or zirconium, of a Coriolis mass flowmeter. The method ensures secure retention of the metal body (1) on the measuring tube (2) even through very extended operation of the Coriolis mass flowmeter, in that the metal body (1) is shrink-mounted on the measuring tube (2).

Abstract:
A device for measuring the mass rate of flow according to the Coriolis principle, with two measurement tubes at least in one section of which runs in a common plane, and a connector by which the two measurement tubes are connected to one another where they run in a common plane. The connector has a stiffening plate which is parallel to the common plane of the measurement tubes and which is attached to the two measurement tubes. At least one stiffening fin is provided on the stiffening plate so that the bending stiffness of the connector for bending in the common plane of the measurement tubes in which, generally, excitation vibrations of the measurement tubes also take place, is made greater than the torsional stiffness of the connector for torsional vibrations. As a result, the measurement accuracy of the Coriolis mass flow rate measurement device is improved.
Abstract:
A handheld flashlight includes a head that pivots relative to a body. Three legs pivotally connect to the body and open into a tripod to support the head in an elevated position. The legs are spring-biased toward the open tripod position and are selectively held closed by a detent mechanism. In the closed position, the legs form a flashlight handle that is aligned with an illumination direction of the head and is shaped and sized to be held in the hand of an operator. Each of the three legs contain battery source holders for battery sources that connect to each other in parallel. Diodes are disposed in series with each battery source to prevent the parallel battery sources from discharging each other.
Abstract:
A handheld flashlight includes a head that pivots relative to a body. At least two legs pivotally connect to the body at a fixed location along the body, and open into an extended, open or deployed position to support the head in an elevated position. In the closed or handheld flashlight position, the legs form a flashlight handle that is aligned with an illumination direction of the head and is shaped and sized to be held in the hand of an operator. Each of the legs may contain battery source holders for battery sources that connect to each other.
Abstract:
Coating materials including at least one hydroxyl-containing (meth)acrylate (co)polymer, at least one carbamate- and hydroxyl-containing compound and at least one amino resin, where at least 10 equivalent % of the hydroxyl groups present in the (meth)acrylate (co)polymers and/or the carbamate and hydroxyl containing compound are primary hydroxyl groups. The coating materials after curing have a storage modulus E′ in the rubber-elastic range of at least 1.5*107 Pa, the storage modulus E′ having been measured by dynamic mechanical thermoanalysis (DMTA) on homogeneous free films with a thickness of 40±10 μm. Also included is a processes for preparing the coating materials and applications therefor.
