Keyhole illumination for a tumbler and cylinder lock comprising a miniature light source and a light transmitting pin in the pin holes.

A method of assessing consumer reaction to a marketing stimulus, involving the steps of (a) exposing a sample population to a marketing stimulus for a period of time, (b) interviewing members of the sample population immediately after exposure of the members to the marketing stimulus, (c) videotaping any facial expressions and associated verbal comments of individual members of the sample population during the exposure period and interview, (d) reviewing the videotaped facial expressions and ass...

A sample population including a plurality of members participate in a consumer activity for a participation period to assess consumer reaction to the consumer activity. Surface electromyography signals from a zygomatic muscle and electrodermography signals of each member of the sample population are measured during the participation period. Data is recorded including at least a description of a stimulus experienced by each member during the participation period and a description of the interacti...

A method of assessing consumer reaction to a marketing stimulus, involving the steps of (a) exposing a sample population to a marketing stimulus for an exposure period, (b) measuring surface electromyography signals from a zygomatic muscle of each member of the sample population during an exposure period, (c) optionally measuring surface electromyography signals from a corrugator facial muscle of each member of the sample population during the exposure period and combining the measured surface e...

An animal trap includes a frame, a striker, a biasing member, a set lever and a trigger. The frame includes an upper wall, a first side member depending from the upper wall and a second side member spaced from the first side member and depending from the upper wall. The striker mounts to at least one of the upper wall, the first side member and the second side member. The biasing member biases the striker away from the upper wall toward a direction that the side members depend from the upper wal...

An excellent catalyst for polyurethane foams is a combination of 1, 3, 5-tris(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl)-s-hexahydrotriazine and 2-(dimethylamino)-ethanol. It has unexpectedly been found that this catalyst combination produces both excellent gelation and blowing reactions.

An apparatus to improve the sealing capabilities of a sealing member. The apparatus comprises a first member having a channel formed therein for receiving the sealing member in sealing engagement with the bottom of the channel. A second member forms a second seal with the sealing member. A number of fluid pressure zones are provided in addition to two fluid passageways to communicate fluid on opposed sides of the sealing member. A means is provided on at least one side of the sealing member to c...

A diaphragm clamping arrangement for assembly of a diaphragm-type piston in the body of a valve device or the like such that the diaphragm is biased in a direction to cause the diaphragm convolution to assume a preferred disposition in which a desired diaphragm "spring effect" is maintained.

A diaphragm piston assembly in which an annular ring member is provided, preferably at the outer clamping periphery of the diaphragm between the underside of the diaphragm and body, to exert a force on the diaphragm in the direction of the cover that clamps the diaphragm to the body, thereby encouraging the diaphragm convolution to assume a disposition in a preferred direction corresponding to the direction in which the convolution is predisposed by the inherent "spring effect" of the diaphragm.
