Devices used to pressurize, depressurize, or otherwise displace fluid are disclosed. The devices may be configured as a syringe. The syringe may be configured to generate high-pressure within the syringe to inflate or deflate a medical device, such as a balloon, or to inject a substance, such as bone cement, into a bone, such as a vertebra. The syringe may include a pressure reduction mechanism used to depressurize the syringe.

A truss rod adjustment device includes a truss rod gear assembly, an adjustment gear assembly and a base. The truss rod gear assembly includes an end shaped to fit in and engage a truss rod wrench socket attached to a neck of a guitar. The adjustment gear assembly includes an adjustment socket shaped to receive and engage a wrench. The base attaches to the neck of the guitar and holds the truss rod gear assembly in position to engage the truss rod wrench socket. The base also holds the adjustment gear assembly in position both to engage the truss rod assembly gear assembly and to position the adjustment socket to be accessible through a hole in a back of the guitar.

A ground oat-based cereal provides a nutritional, hot meal with improved flavor, textural taste, and keeping qualities. That is, the ground oat cereal maintains its consistency and heat over a longer period of time than conventional oatmeal. The oat-based cereal includes ground and sifted oat granules of which 27%-33% by weight have sizes greater than generally about 0.08 inches, and 67%-73% by weight have sizes ranging between generally about 0.04 inches and generally about 0.08 inches. Whole oat groats are roll cut and sifted to produce the oat-based cereal. The density of the oat portion of the cereal ranges between 28-34 lbs/cu. ft.

A planer is improved by recognizing the source of instability of a board relative to a guidebar. An angled relationship between feed roller force the guidebar and holds the board against the guidebar. Traditional cutting heads urging the board in the opposite direction relative to that of the feed rollers, develop lateral force vectors kicking the board away from the guidebar. By establishing a zero lead relationship between the cutter heads and the board as it rests against the guidebar, the board enjoys greater stability. The disclosed apparatus further includes an air regulated top pressure plate establishing a given separation between itself and a cutter head, but accommodating abnormal operating conditions, i.e., jammed boards, by vertical movement relative to the cutter head facilitates remote actuation to quickly relieve a jammed condition. Also shown, a bearing housing for a cutter head support shaft is carried on an articulated hinge to improve manual mounting of the bearing housing upon the shaft.

A base is arranged to be secured to the support frame of a planer and supports a slide for movement toward and away from the planar knife head. The slide supports a grinding stone, and a lever connected between the base and the slide is arranged to move the slide and the stone toward and away from the knife head. The guard for the knife head on the planer has an opening through which the present jointing apparatus works. An adjustable stop is provided between the jointer base and the slide to provide precision operation of the slide and the stone in jointing operations.
