6822058, Nov 23, 2004

Filed:

Jul 13, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/905422

Inventors:

David Kramer - Commerce Township MI
Brad A. Haskell - Sterling Heights MI

Assignee:

The Sherwin-Williams Company - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

C08F 444

US Classification:

526142, 526171, 264279, 2642711

Abstract:

A thermosetting in-mold coating composition and a method of using the same. The in-mold coating composition is curable at a temperature below 300Â F. and includes a polymerizable resin, a promoted peroxide that includes a tertiary organic perester, a polymer-bound catalyst that includes a transition metal physically bound to a polymeric composition, and an amine synergist that includes at least one aromatic tertiary amine.

Appl. No.:

10/809161

Inventors:

David J. Kramer - Rochester Hills MI, US
Eugene F. Moody - Waterford MI, US

Assignee:

Eaton Corporation - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

F15B013/044

US Classification:

137 1521, 13762565, 251 50

Abstract:

A solenoid operated spool valve has a dampening reservoir formed at one end of the spool and which is ported for immersion in a fluid sump. The reservoir port is oriented vertically above the spool and a cap with an offset port is received over the reservoir port to baffle fluid flow from the reservoir and prevent the reservoir from draining when the port is fluid starved in the sump.

Appl. No.:

09/904217

Inventors:

David Kramer - Rochester Hills MI, US
Joseph Spryshak - Hartland MI, US

Assignee:

EATON CORPORATION. - Cleveland OH

International Classification:

F25B041/06

US Classification:

236/09200B, 062/527000

Abstract:

A combination thermally responsive refrigerant expansion valve with integral electrically operated inlet shutoff valve having an inlet shutoff valve seat surrounded by a flow diffuser which eliminates undesirable flow noise. In the preferred embodiment the diffuser comprises a plurality of radially extending flow channels formed adjacent the inlet shutoff valve seat integrally in a one-piece valve seat member.

International Classification:

C25B 1308

US Classification:

204296

Abstract:

Initial cell voltages are reduced by decreasing the resistance of the diaphragm through a degassing procedure prior to or at installation thereof. This degassing procedure involves subjecting the diaphragm to subatmospheric pressure while contacting the diaphragm with electrolyte, said electrolyte being an aqueous saline solution having a surface active agent therein in an amount sufficient to reduce the surface tension below the critical surface tension for wetting the fibers, and increasing the pressure to atmospheric or cell working pressure to force electrolyte solution into the interstices of the diaphragm.

David J. Kramer - Rochester Hills MI

Continental Teves AG & Co., OHG

International Classification:

B60T 834

US Classification:

3031153

Abstract:

A method of preventing a vacuum from developing in a low-pressure area of a vehicle anti-lock brake system comprises providing periodically opening normally closed electromagnet valves when brakes are not applied, the valves connecting wheel brakes to a tandem master cylinder by low pressure lines passing through the low-pressure area. As a result, pressures in a tandem master cylinder of the system and the low-pressure area level off and thus a vacuum trapped in the low-pressure area is eliminated.
