The optical rotary adapter is used with an optical tomographic imaging system for acquiring an optical tomographic image of an object under measurement. The adapter includes a fixed sleeve, a stationary optical fiber supported by the fixed sleeve and having an inclined end face, a stationary collimating lens spaced a given distance from the inclined end face, a mounting cylinder carried rotatably with respect to the fixed sleeve, a rotary optical fiber mounted to the mounting cylinder and having an inclined end face, a rotary collimating lens mounted to the mounting cylinder and disposed with a given distance from the inclined end face, and a rotation actuating device for rotating said mounting cylinder. The central axes of the stationary and rotary optical fibers are offset from or inclined with respect to a central axis of rotation of the mounting cylinder to reduce attenuation of returning light from the object.

A rain-screen siding system for buildings, including clips to support siding boards parallel with a flat surface of a building wall structure but spaced apart from the building wall to allow air to circulate between the building wall structure and the siding boards. The clips include paired, opposed channels and the siding boards have tongues that fit into the channels. Drainage grooves are defined in the clips. Bottom support members may extend horizontally to support the siding boards at the bottom of the rain screen siding. Corner closing members are provided to protect end faces of siding boards at an exterior corner of a building wall.

An ice chest has retractable, telescoping legs extending at respective forward and rearward angles from each respective endwall of the ice chest. The ice chest has handles at the upper central portion of the ice chest endwall having push buttons therein which release the telescoping legs from a locked position and which fall to the open position under their own weight and lock in a secure position. The push buttons actuate the locks by a linkage system. The front legs have pads at their lower ends, protecting the ends of the legs, and providing weight to pull the legs into the open, locked position. The rear legs have wheels which also providing weight to pull the legs into the open, locked position. A similar water cooler has retractable legs which have pads on their lower ends pulling the legs downward upon pushing buttons on handles on the sidewalls.

A handled laser treatment device provides a plurality of branched light pipes or light distribution tips distributed so as to evenly deliver laser radiation to the surface of the scalp. To make efficient use of each laser diode, each laser can coupled to a branched light pipe with the branches arranged to distribute light directly to the surface of the scalp. Each laser source is connected to a three branch light pipe. Alternatively, each laser diode can be directly coupled to a light distribution tip arranged in a triad. Each light pipe or light distribution tip acts as a tine or tooth in a comb to bring laser radiation to the scalp free of obstruction by hair, etc., with a tripod configuration that allows each light pipe assembly to evenly contact the rounded surface of the scalp. The branched light pipes or the light distribution tips are preferentially coupled to a flexible membrane so as to be capable of independent orientation allowing improved contact of the distal ends of the tripods or triads to the scalp.

Provided is a hairstyling apparatus (1) for curling and smoothing hair, which includes: first and second elongate jaws (2, 3) which are pivotably movable relative to one another, the first jaw (2) having a first casing (6) supporting a first inner planar treatment surface (4), and the second jaw (3) having a second casing (7) supporting a second inner planar treatment surface (5), the inner surfaces (4, 5) being intended for pinching a lock of hair; and at least one heating element (41, 510) intended for heating at least one inner treatment surface (4, 5). The largest width (l1) of the first casing (6) is no greater than 90% of the largest width (l2) of the second casing (7). The first casing (6) and/or the second casing (7) is asymmetrical relative to the median plane in a longitudinal crosssection of said first casing (6) or said second casing (7), respectively.

An apparatus for monitoring the pressure in a gas well at a downhole location is disclosed. The apparatus uses a capillary tube connecting a downhole monitoring assembly with a pressure gauge or gauges at the wellhead. The downhole monitoring assembly and capillary tube are located externally to the production tube so as not to block the production tube for cleaning or other uses. A passage from the interior of the production tube passes gas to the capillary tube in order to measure the pressure at the downhole end of the production tube.

An information handling system display presents visual images that extend over a bezel disposed about the display perimeter. A first lens structure integrated in a cover placed over the display redirects light from proceeding out of the cover over the display to instead proceed towards the bezel. A second lens structure integrated in the cover placed over the bezel redirects light proceeding from the first lens structure to proceed out of the cover over the bezel.

A seeding tool for depositing seeds and fertilizer within a furrow including a knife opener having a liquid wing projecting from the side thereof for providing and maintaining spacing between the seeds and fertilizer. Preferably, the liquid wing is a tungsten carbide insert secured to the side of the knife opener, and has a wing shaped structure which is shaped and sized to space the fertilizer apart from the seeds, to protect the end of the tube from which fertilizer is dispensed, and to present a small leading surface which displaces the soil easily and presents minimal resistance. Preferably, the largest, side surface of the liquid wing insert is inclined toward the side of the knife opener from a widest lower, rear member adjacent the end of the fertilizer tube to a narrower top, front member near a leading end of the knife opener.

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of a galvanized water pipe internally coated with stainless steel. The method comprises the following steps that A, the surface of the galvanized water pipe is polished, the burrs are removed, then the galvanized water pipe is flushed with the clean water repeatedly, and then the galvanized water pipe is dried at the ventilation place; B, the surfaceof a stainless steel pipe is polished and immersed into a decontaminant to remove the surface oil stain, and then the stainless steel pipe is flushed with the clean water repeatedly and dried; C, a player of high-strength adhesive is sprayed on the inner wall of the galvanized water pipe and the outer wall of the stainless steel pipe; D, the stainless steel pipe is sleeved with the galvanized water pipe; E, the stainless steel pipe is sleeved with a hole expansion mold for pipe expansion of the stainless steel pipe, so that the outer wall of the stainless steel pipe is completely stuck to theinner wall of the galvanized water pipe through the adhesive; and F, finally, the end of stainless steel pipe exposed out of the two ends of the galvanized water pipe are bent by using a bending process, and then the end of the galvanized water pipe is fixed. The manufacturing method is simple in operation, the high-strength composite of the galvanized water pipe and the stainless steel pipe can be achieved, and the service life of the galvanized water pipe is prolonged.

A free curved surface precision machining tool for precision-machining a surface to be machined with the lower end in contact therewith by rotation around an axis x. It includes a drum-shaped tool having a rotation axis x orthogonal to the axis z and rotationally driven around the rotation axis x. This drum-shaped tool has a convex machining surface in the form of an arcuate rotary body obtained by rotating an arc of a radius r with the center at the intersection O between the axis z and the rotation axis x around the rotation axis x. The convex machining surface contacts the surface to be machined to precision-machine the latter, while the convex machining surface is rotated around the orthogonal axis x so as to disperse the machining position of the convex machining surface.
