This storage media case has a base formed with a bottom wall sized and shaped to receive a disc and with peripheral rim walls further defining the disc-receiving portion of the base. Its lid is provided with its own set of rim walls that overlap the rim walls on the base when the lid is closed and thereby help to protect the disc from invasive contact. Mating hinge assemblies are formed at the back of both the base and lid. These assemblies allow the hinge elements to be snapped together with the lid registered over the base. The geometry of the base hinge assembly allows expansion room for the hinge clevis members on the lid to spread apart and snap over the hinge pins only when the lid is registered in a nearly closed position over the base. When the lid is opened, its hinge devises move down into narrower recesses in the base so that the base prevents the hinge devises from spreading.

This invention provides an improved bed. The bed comprises a top sheet, a bottom sheet connected with the top sheet, and at least one coil beam. The coil beam further comprises a first fastener attached to the top sheet, a second fastener attached to the bottom sheet, and a string connecting the first and second fasteners. In one embodiment, the first fastener further comprises a first attachment sheet with two first openings and a first bridge formed therebetween. The first attachment sheet is welded onto the top sheet. The string runs through the two first openings between the first bridge and the top sheet. In addition, the second fastener further comprises a second attachment sheet with two second openings and a second bridge formed therebetween. The second attachment sheet is welded onto the bottom sheet. The string runs through the two second openings between the second bridge and the bottom sheet.

Composite joint for fitting at least one external member to a sandwich panel and panel integrating at least one such joint.To permit the transmission of static and / or dynamic stresses between at least one external member and a sandwich panel, into said panel is integrated at least one composite joint (10). Said joint comprises a plurality of juxtaposed, elementary, tubular cells (12), oriented in the panel thickness direction, as well as at least one stress introduction cell (12a), in which is fitted a rigid part (14) for fixing the external member. The tubular cells (12) comprise composite walls formed from braided fiber roves and resin.

Control station which comprises: a seat (10) for the operator of the said control station, the seat (10) comprising at least one arm rest (30), and a control and command assembly, said assembly comprising a control stick (1) with controls, mechanical components for transmitting and generating forces and movement to and from the control stick (1), components (17) for measuring the position of the control stick (1), and electronic components which are connected to the control stick (1) and via which the control and command assembly is operated, the control stick (1) of the said control station being incorporated in the seat (10), the control stick (1) being situated moreover on the armrest (30).

A sea survival device (1) comprising a container (2) with several shells (3, 4) enclosing respective pneumatic liferafts (5, 6) in the deflated and folded-up state, and inflation means; one half-shell (4) enclosing a liferaft (6) is closed by a closure partition (7); the automatically triggered inflation means are operationally associated with at least the first liferaft (5) in a manner such that said first liferaft (5) is inflated first when the survival device (1) is deployed operationally; and the liferaft (6) is operationally associated with inflation trigger means suitable for trigging inflation thereof only once the first liferaft (5) is inflated.

The invention provides a low-temperature preparation method of a combustion rate regulator for a carbon-based zinc oxide composite propellant, which mainly comprises the following steps: exposing a carbon-based substrate in diethyl zinc vapor to adsorb vapor molecules on the surface of the carbon-based substrate; blowing away part of physically adsorbed diethyl zinc molecules on the surface of thesubstrate from the surface of the substrate by using inert gas; exposing the carbon-based substrate to steam of water, so that steam molecules of the water and adsorbed diethyl zinc molecules are subjected to a chemical reaction; using inert gas for blowing away byproducts and redundant steam molecules on the surface of the substrate from the surface. The invention discloses a combustion rate regulator. Compared with a traditional combustion speed regulator and a carbon-based combustion speed regulator prepared by adopting other methods, the combustion rate regulator of the invention is excellent in combustion speed regulation capability, capable of effectively reducing the AP decomposition temperature and optimizing the energy release structure, is mild in preparation temperature, high in automation degree, good in safety performance, capable of being directly used without aftertreatment, easy to realize batch production and environmentally friendly.

A knife assembly for use in a veneer cutting machine such as a rotary veneer lathe and a veneer slicer includes a knife blade, a knife blade holder and a knife adjusting bolt with a lock nut. The knife blade holder includes a holder block having formed therethrough a threaded hole through which the knife adjusting bolt is adjustably inserted. The holder block has a first support surface that is in supporting contact with a part of one surface of the knife blade on the side thereof where a bevel face of the knife blade is formed and a second support surface that is in supporting contact with a part of a base end surface located opposite from and extending parallel to a cutting edge of the knife blade.

The present invention relates to a converter for converting a dive light into a canister light. The converter comprises a first adaptor for mating in a waterproof fashion with a head of a dive light, a second adaptor for mating in a waterproof fashion with a battery compartment of the dive light, and a connector cable having a first end affixed to the first adaptor in a waterproof fashion and a second end affixed to the second adaptor in a waterproof fashion. In one embodiment, the first adaptor comprises a hand mount assembly for mounting holding the head of the dive light on the back of a diver's hand while the battery compartment of the dive light is attached to a belt worn around a diver's waist. The converter is manufactured at relatively low cost enabling recreational divers and beginners to acquire a converted dive light at relatively low cost compared with commercially available canister lights.

A case including: a vessel, a cover mounted to be moved in rotation on the vessel via a hinge system which has a hinge axis and at least one hinge, wherein each hinge has a first portion which is fixedly joined to the vessel, a second portion) which is fixedly joined to the cover and a connector which assumes alternately an operating position in which the connector ensures the connection between the second portion and the first portion to allow for rotation of the second portion relative to the first portion about the hinge axis and, alternatively, a safety position in which the connector dissociates the second portion and the first portion.
