A combustion product detector contains a single ionization chamber having a radioactive source therein. It is provided with means to test the function of the device. The means includes an electrically non-conductive member which may be introduced in the ionization chamber to simulate (in effect) the presence of smoke in the chamber. Housing for the chamber is constructed and mounted to shield the components contained therein. An FET and resistors are closely coupled to a radioactive source holder and to a printed circuit board on which the housing is mounted. A metal coil spring electrically connects the non-conductive test member and the housing to discharge static. The test member may be removed readily to permit inspection and cleaning of the radioactive source surface. The device may be powered from a battery or from AC line current with or without a standby battery to automatically power the device in the event of line current failure and may be provided with a circuit to produce a signal in the event of power failure.

A holder (10) has a top housing (12) and a bottom housing (14) which encloses a numismatic item (24) for protection and display. The top housing (12) has an interior surface (28), an exterior surface (30), and edges (32, 34, 36, 38). The bottom housing (14) has an interior surface (46), an exterior surface (48), and edges (50, 52, 54, 56). Each of the edges (32, 34, 36, 38) of the top housing (12) has an underlapping finger (40) that extends from the interior surface (28) and that interlocks with an overlapping finger (58) that extends from the interior surface (46) of the edges (50, 52, 54, 56) of the bottom housing (14) when the housings (12, 14) are pressed together. The fingers (40, 58) have respective barbs (42, 60) which engage with one another when the housings (12, 24) are pressed together to seal and confine the numismatic item ( 24) in a chamber (86) formed between a first coin window (16) located in the top housing (12) and a second coin window (18) located in the bottom housing (14). A label (26) may be similarly enclosed in a chamber (88) formed between a first label window (20) and a second label window (22). An elastomeric ring (80) of optional size may be used to enclose a numismatic item (24) that is smaller than the chamber (86).

The present invention provides an improved flow sensor turbine assembly for fluid flow measurement. The flow sensor turbine is connected in fluid communication with a conduit through which a fluid whose flow rate is to be measured flows. The flow sensor turbine assembly includes a turbine, rotatably mounted on a turbine shaft, including turbine blades which rotate in response to the flow of fluid through the turbine assembly. Synthetic sapphire ball thrust bearings are provided adjacent to one or both ends of the turbine shaft to provide a low and consistent friction level and a high wear resistant bearing for the rotating turbine. Rotation of the turbine in the turbine assembly may be detected using an infrared rotation detector. Alternatively, a metallic insert may be positioned in one or more of the turbine blades. In such a case, rotation of the turbine may be detected using an inductive pick-up.

Disclosed is a temperature indicating method and device. The device embodies a sealed tube containing a liquid and a float. The tube has markings on the exterior indicating temperature zones or, in the alternative, temperature gradients. The method disclosed includes inverting the tube such that the indicator drops to the bottom of the tube and freezing the device at the appropriate temperature level. In use, the device is placed right side up in a container along with other items for which the highest temperature level arrived at is desired to be known. Upon warming, the liquid in the tube melts and the float drops through the liquid to the freezing level of the liquid. By removing the device from the container and comparing the float level in the tube to the markings on the exterior of the tube, the highest temperature or temperature zone that the contents of the container were subjected can be determined.

Grip member for elastic cord used for exercising contains two parallel cylindrical bores with slightly greater diameter than the cable, to slidingly receive the cable and prevent sliding of the cable through the grip member and permit adjusting of the active length of the cable used in any specific exercise. A tubular member receives one of the hand grip members in each end and may serve to simulate a bar used to lift weights, a golf club handle, a tennis racket handle, a baseball bat, a canoe paddle, a hockey stick, or the like. A device is provided to attach the cable at the juncture of a door and door frame.

A method and apparatus for controlling the temperature of an injection mold passes pressurized air contained in an air supply tube through an orifice into an exhaust channel, wherein the pressure of the air in the exhaust channel is lower than the pressure of the air in the air supply tube. As the pressurized air is released through the orifice, cooling is produced that can be applied to a portion of an injection mold where cooling is desired, in order to control the temperature of that portion of the injection mold.

A radiant heating system is provided. The system includes a tube, a heat radiating panel, a fastener, and a heat transfer device. The heat radiating panel includes a heat radiating portion, and a channel extending from the heat radiating portion. The channel is sized to hold a section of the tube. The heat radiating portion may further include a plurality of slats extending from a substantially planar surface. To improve the heat distribution, the plurality of slats extend from the surface at an angle less than 90 degrees. The fastener is used to attach the heat radiating panel to the section of the tube. The heat transfer device includes an outlet valve operably coupled to supply a heat transfer medium to a first end of the tube, and an inlet valve operably coupled to receive the heat transfer medium from a second end of the tube. The heat transfer device may heat or cool the heat transfer medium.
