Abstract:
An improved process for the pelletization of polymers is disclosed, using a die in which the die holes incorporate a reverse taper along at least a portion of the length thereof. Conditions for operation of an under melt cutter incorporating this die are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A method of producing a document at a remote typing station using information input from a remote user location is provided. Voice and image data are transmitted from a user location, transcribed and correlated by a typist at a remote typing station, and made available as a finished document.
Abstract:
A system for selecting an optimal transformation T(G2;G1) between a first ellipsoid E1 (e.g., WGS 84) in a first global coordinate system G1, relative to which the survey measurements are made, and a second ellipsoid E2 (e.g., NAD 27) in a second global coordinate system G2. Location coordinates (x'.sub.m,2,y'.sub.m,2,z'.sub.m,2) for M previously-surveyed locations, numbered m=1, . . . , M (M>1) in the second system, and location coordinates (x'.sub.n,1,y'.sub.n,1,z'.sub.n,1) for N presently-surveyed locations, numbered n=1, . . . , N (M
Abstract:
A free weight accessory for positioning the bar of a bar bell and the like on the ventral side of the upper leg regions of the user. The accessory includes a body portion preferably made of aluminum, plastic or fiberglass having a pair of side-by-side, spaced apart parallel channels defined on the underside thereof for removably accomodating the legs of a user while the user is in a seated position. The top side of the accessory includes dimpled projections for positioning the bar of the bar bell. The underside of the dimpled projections are concave thereby permitting stacking of the accessories one atop the other for storage and shipping. An elastic belt is optionally provided for removable attachment of the accessory to the user's leg.
