The design of Shaded Rotor devices to demonstrate the existence of a hypothetical Universal Particle Flux Field is presented. These devices should extract a measurable amount of energy from this Field. We believe the Universal Particle Flux Field can explain all invisible forces at a distance phenomena between masses, charged bodies, and magnetic materials. We propose that the Universal Particle Flux Field is a simultaneously convergent/divergent field, where the particle streams traverse to any point in the Universe from every other point in the Universe. The order of this Flux Field is a nearly perfect disorder, which is an order in itself. The strength of the gravitational component of this Field is conventionally denoted by &ldquo;G&rdquo;. Two neutral masses immersed in such Flux Field will develop forces between them, which are consistent with Newton's Equation of Gravitation. This Field is also consistent with Electrostatic, and Magnetic Force Equations. A magnetic rotor is preferentially shaded with a magnetic stator so that a net torque exists on the rotor. This principle is also applied to an electrostaticly charged Shaded Rotor device. The possibilities that the Beta, the Muon, and the Tau Neutrinos are the Universal Particles and they are producing the Electrostatic, Magnetic, and Gravitational Force Fields respectively, are explored. Laboratory sized Shaded Rotor Devices can be constructed using magnetic and/or electrostatic components; detailed designs are described herein. Circumstantial evidences described herein, indicate that the Universal Gravitational Constant &ldquo;G&rdquo; hence the &ldquo;g&rdquo; of the Earth is direction and time variable, and it has significantly increased during the last several hundred million years; this may account for the demise of the Dinosaurs, and of the giant vegetation.

A device is proposed to detect the existence of a hypothetical Universal Particle Field of the Universe. According to this hypothesis, this energy field is responsible for all gravitational, and inertial phenomena in the Universe. The proposed device is quite simple, and it is quite practical to build. This device may also settle the controversy between the advocates of the hypothetical 'Field Generated By Matter' vs. the 'Universal Particle Field' advocates. The device consists of a rotor, surrounded by a relatively large Universal Particle shading mass. A mass free slot, in line with a segment of the rotor rim mass, allows slightly less attenuated Universal Particle beams, than 180 degrees from this slot, to impinge on the rotor rim segment mass. Calculations given, indicate that a 10 kg rotor rim segment mass, with a 100,000 kg removed mass from the slot, results in a force on the rotor rim of about 6.67.times.10.sup.-5 Newtons. Magnetically levitated bearings should allow a 1 meter diameter rotor to rotate at this torque.

A braze fixture has side walls forming a cavity with an opening to receive a stack of parts to be brazed. Sidewalls of the housing have a plurality of bearing receiving openings into which bearing rods or jaws are inserted to align the stacked elements of the workpiece. The housing can also have view ports to allow a visual check of the alignment. Straps or wires around the fixture are selected to have thermal characteristics similar to the thermal characteristics of the workpiece undergoing brazing. The straps or wires make physical contact with the bearing rods thereby causing bearing rods to maintain the workpiece in proper alignment throughout the entire brazing cycle.

A frozen yoghurt or ice cream dispensing system is presented. This system costs a small fraction that of the state of the art dispensing system, yet it is more versatile and puts out a better product, than the state of the art systems. A pre-formed 'hard' frozen single serving of the base confection and fresh flavoring additives are loaded into an extrusion cup. At the actuation of a hand crank, or a power drive switch, a rotating cutter/sweeper on a retractable shaft, penetrates the confection charge and chops, softens, and mixes it. After this cutter engages the bottom of said cup, a piston traverses the loading cup bore, and the charge is extruded through a multi-aperture orifice, at the bottom of the extrusion cup. Shearing and additional mixing occurs, during the interaction of the rotating cutter and the multi-aperture orifice. An automatic rinse cycle is also built into the device, to eliminate flavor mixing between various batches of confections, and to save labor.

An apparatus for converting hard frozen confection to soft frozen confection, by single servings, flavoring and extruding it, is described. A super fresh product with outstanding flavor and consistency is produced. Fruit additions remain soft and flavorful, not frozen; cookie additions remain crisp, not soggy as in ordinary ice cream. Hundreds of flavor combinations become practical to make. The invention utilizes a piston and cylinder to pressurize the product for extrusion, and a special rotating wheel, on a retractable shaft thru the piston, that performs the mixing, cutting, milling, and sweeping functions. Aggregates are swept into a central extrusion orifice by this wheel. The commercial version of the apparatus requires 1/10 HP to operate, and weighs 62 pounds. The 'household' version of this machine weighs 30 pounds.

Apparatus for converting a serving of hard ice cream to soft ice cream with additions of fruit, flavoring, nuts, etc. as desired. The apparatus includes a cup having an extrusion nozzle and containing rotatable cutting and mixing means rotated by retractable pins of a rotatable and retractible piston which not only rotates the cutter but also forces the ice cream from the nozzle of the cup.

A reversible vertical journal bearing with a self contained closed circuit lubrication system, directed toward ceiling fan applications, is disclosed. Lubricant pumping, from a reservoir, is accomplished by an array of throttled, high pressure, triangular pumping cavities on the journal surface. The array is completely symmetrical about the journal axis, so that unidirectional lubricant flow is produced at either direction of journal rotation. The lubricant is collected in a manifold at the top of the bearing, and it is gravity fed back into the reservoir. Optimum design parameters for a stable high load bearing capability device are indicated.

A nozzle beam source for use in the vapor deposition of electrode materials such as gold, during the fabrication of precision quartz-crystal resonators, or the like. The nozzle beam source includes a graphite crucible and source tube, a tungsten wick within the source tube, and graphite-to-graphite mechanical seals.

Nozzle beam source for vapor deposition

Disclosed is a semi-automatic processing system for the production of components requiring the deposition of metallization and assembly in an oil free ultra-high vacuum environment. The system is comprised of a plurality of interconnected tubular high vacuum chambers for separately performing ultra-violet cleaning, bake out, plating and sealing of, for example, quartz crystal resonator units, in an in-line configuration adapted for continuous cycle processing of components. The major elements of the system include: (a) a belt type transport which is adapted to convey one or more components through the respective chamber and into an adjoining chamber through an intermediate gate valve; (b) manipulators for handling the component parts inside the vacuum chambers; (c) long life highly directional evaporation sources for evaporated metal deposition on selected component parts; and (d) a sealing apparatus for hermetically sealing the components after evaporation without exposure to atmosphere. Each chamber accordingly is separated from all adjoining chambers by gate valves which make each chamber a self contained modular unit that, for ease of servicing, can be removed and/or inserted into the system without affecting the vacuum integrity of the other chambers.
