I claim: 1. In an injection-molding machine with two upper and two lower horizontal tie bars extending between a stationary outer platen and a fixed support mounted on a machine bed, a movable outer platen slidable along said tie bars, a first mold plate on said stationary platen confronting said movable platen, a second mold plate on said movable platen confronting said stationary platen, and a pair of further mold plates carried on an intermediate platen between said outer platens subjected to correlated displacement with said movable platen between a mold-closed and a mold-open position,the improvement wherein said intermediate platen is provided with two pairs of outrigger arms extending in opposite directions generally parallel to said tie bars, each outrigger arm terminating in a respective part-cylindrical shoe slidably engaging one of said tie bars at a location between said intermediate platen and one of said outer platens. 2. A machine as defined in claim 1 wherein the shoes of each pair of outrigger arms engage a respective lower tie bar.
3. A machine as defined in claim 2, further comprising two rails on said machine bed paralleling said lower tie bars, said shoes having extensions riding on said rails.
4. A machine as defined in claim 3 wherein said rails also support said moving platen.
5. A machine as defined in claim 1, 2, 3 or 4 wherein said shoes are provided with demountable stirrups complementing same to rings embracing the engaged tie bars.
6. A machine as defined in claim 1, 2, 3 or 4 wherein said intermediate platen has a width less than the transverse separation of said tie bars.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION My present invention relates to an injection-molding machine wherein a so-called stack mold includes two or more pairs of plates carried on a stationary platen, a movable platen and at least one intermediate platen which is subjected to a correlated displacement with the movable platen during the opening and the closure of the mold.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION An injection-molding machine including such an intermediate platen has been disclosed, for example, in commonly owned U.S. Pat. No. 4,207,051. This patent shows the intermediate platen slidably traversed by the tie bars interconnecting the two outer platens. Commonly owned U.S. Pat. No. 3,767,352 illustrates a stack mold whose inner plates are floatingly supported by the associated outer plates with the aid of an articulated linkage and without the use of a third platen. The latter arrangement is suitable only with mold plates of relatively low weight. Moreover, as likewise shown in the last-mentioned patent, the required precise alignment of the several plates in the mold-closed position necessitates the use of guide or leader pins on, say, the inner plates receivable in aligned bores of the adjoining outer plates. These guide pins, which must be of fairly large diameter, diminish the space available for mold cavities or cores.
Reference may further be made to commonly owned U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,659,997, 3,723,040 and 3,973,892 showing such inner plates directly supported by the tie bars. This type of mounting is applicable only to mold plates with guide bores conforming in size and location to the tie bars of a given machine. Moreover, the emplacement and removal of the mold plates requires a partial disassembly of the plate-supporting structure, such as a withdrawal of the tie bars from one of the platens, unless the mold plates themselves are split into separable sections.
A possible alternative already proposed is to suspend the inner mold plates on the upper tie bars by means of lateral extensions slidably engaging same. Such a system is relatively simple and quite satisfactory in terms of mold alignment but has only limited stability on account of the large offset of the points of support from the center of the plates; thus, unsymmetrical stresses acting upon these plates during the mold-opening and mold-closing strokes may result in dislocation and possible serious damage to the mold.
It is therefore advantageous to provide each inner pair of mold plates with its own platen in the general manner disclosed in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. No. 4,207,051. Since, however, such an intermediate platen cannot be readily removed from the machine when traversed by the tie bars as shown in that patent, the installation of the associated mold plates on its two surfaces is somewhat inconvenient and must be performed by a skilled operator.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The object of my present invention, therefore, is to provide means in such an injection-molding machine for securely supporting one or more pairs of inner plates of a stack mold with avoidance of the inconveniences and other drawbacks discussed above.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION I realize this object, in accordance with my present invention, by providing an intermediate platen with two pairs of outrigger arms extending in opposite directions generally parallel to the tie bars, each outrigger arm terminating in a respective part-cylindrical shoe which slidably engages one of the tie bars at a location between this intermediate platen and one of the outer platens. Since that intermediate platen cannot approach any of the other platens to a distance less than the combined thickness of the intervening pair of mold plates, the shoes on the oppositely extending outrigger arms can be widely spaced in the direction of mold motion so as to provide a stable four-point support for the intermediate platen.
In principle, any two tie bars on opposite sides of the mold axis can be engaged by the shoes of the two pairs of outrigger arms. In many instances, however, it will be advantageous to choose for this purpose the two lower tie bars, in which case it is also possible to provide additional support for the intermediate platen by fitting the shoes with downward extensions riding on rails of the machine bed that can also be used for slidably supporting the movable outer platen.
My present improvement is, of course, applicable to stack molds with two or more pairs of inner plates carried on respective intermediate platens.
FIG. 1 is a side-elevation view (parts broken away) of a stack mold on an assembly of three platens according to my invention;
FIGS. 3 and 4 are cross-sectional views similar to that of FIG. 2, illustrating two modifications;
FIG. 5 is a side-elevational view, similar to that of FIG. 1, illustrating a stack mold with two intermediate platens; and
FIG. 6 is a fragmentary cross-sectional view taken on the line VI--VI of FIG. 5.
SPECIFIC DESCRIPTION Reference will first be made to FIGS. 1 and 2 showing part of an injection-molding machine generally similar to that of the above-identified U.S. Pat. No. 4,207,051. The machine comprises a bed 10 fixedly supporting a stationary platen 11 from which four tie bars 14 extend to another fixed part of the machine frame not shown. Slidably supported on these tie bars is a movable platen 12 reciprocable by a conventional mold drive including a ram 20. The underside of platen 12 carries pads 51 of low-friction material (e.g. Teflon) which slide on rails 52 above bed 10.
An intermediate platen 13, whose width is less than the horizontal spacing of the tie bars 14, is disposed between the other two platens and supports a pair of inner mold plates 23, 24 respectively coacting with outer mold plates 21 and 22 carried on platens 11 and 12. Thus, mold plate 21 is provided with a core 31 receivable in a cavity 41 of the confronting mold plate 23; similarly, mold plate 22 has a core 32 receivable in a cavity 42 of confronting mold plate 24. Workpieces remaining on cores in the illustrated mold-open position are dislodged by respective stripper plates 15 and 16 under the control of a mechanism (not shown) which, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,207,051, may comprise lost-motion linkages connecting these stripper plates with a pair of pinions 30 rotatable on a lateral hub 29 of platen 13. Each pinion 30 is in mesh with two racks 27, 28 respectively extending from mold plates 21 and 22 to insure a correlated displacement of platens 12 and 13 during opening and closure of the mold. Plates 21 and 22 further carry leader or guide pins 33, 34 which are received in aligned bores 35, 36 of plates 23 and 24 when the mold is closed.
In contradistinction to the arrangement of U.S. Pat. No. 4,207,051, where the intermediate platen 13 is slidable like platen 12 on all four tie bars, this intermediate platen is supported in the present instance only by the lower tie bars in a manner facilitating its removal from the machine without major disassembling operations. The platen 13 is flanked for this purpose by a pair of outriggers 43, of inverted-T shape, whose stems are fastened to the respective hubs 29 by screws 44. The bar of each outrigger 43 forms two arms 43', 43" respectively extending toward platens 11 and 12, these arms terminating in shoes 45', 45" with semi-cylindrical surfaces slidably engaging the two lower tie bars. Each T-bar 43', 43" is further secured to platen 13 and to mold plates 23, 24 by several bolts 46 passing through spacing sleeves 47; platen 13 and plates 23, 24 are also provided with lateral alignment pins 57 traversing the two outriggers.
As indicated in phantom lines, the shoes 45', 45" may be provided with respective stirrups 48 which are removably secured thereto by screws 49 and complement these shoes to rings slidably embracing the engaged tie bars.
Since the shoes 45', 45" lie outside the path of the mold plates and of the associated stripper plates, the ends of the outrigger arms 43', 43" may almost touch the outer platens 11 and 12 in the mold-closed position. The wide separation of the shoes of each outrigger imparts a high degree of stability to the support of platen 13, even without the stirrups 48.
Upon closure of the mold, flowable plastic material is introduced into cavity 41 through an injection channel 37 traversing the platen 11. Cavity 42 may be supplied with such plastic material through an extension of channel 37 or through a reciprocable nozzle opening into plate 36 from above, e.g. as disclosed in the aforementioned U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,659,997, 3,723,040 and 3,973,892. Alternatively, a reciprocable manifold of the type disclosed in these patents may have nozzles feeding both inner plates 23 and 24.
As illustrated in FIG. 3, the right-hand outrigger 43 of FIG. 2 may be replaced by an overhead outrigger 43a with shoes 45a resting on the upper right tie bar while being secured by screws 46a to the top of platen 13. A mirror-symmetrical arrangement has been illustrated in FIG. 4 where a similar overhead outrigger 43b fastened to the platen by screws 46b has shoes 45b resting on the upper left tie bar while the lower right tie bar is engaged by the shoes of the right-hand outrigger 43 of FIG. 2. In either of these cases, of course, the shoes may also be fitted with complementary stirrups 48.
In FIG. 5 I have shown a modified stack mold differing from that of FIG. 1 in that the single intermediate platen 13 has been replaced by two such platens 113, 213 carrying respective mold plates 123, 124 and 223, 224. The outer mold plates 21 and 22 are provided, as before, with cores 31, 32 coacting in this instance with respective cavities 141 and 242 of plates 123 and 224. Plate 124 has a cavity 142 designed to receive a core 241 on plate 223. The latter mold plate is provided with a further stripper plate 216.
The two intermediate platens 113 and 213 are equipped with respective outrigger pairs 143, 243 substantially identical with those shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Shoes 145', 145" of each outrigger 143 and 245', 245" of each outrigger 243 slide on the lower tie bars 14 and are provided with complementary extensions 148, 248 secured thereto by bolts 149, 249. These extensions differ from the stirrups 148 of FIGS. 1 and 2, as best seen in FIG. 6, by having bottom surfaces provided with pads 53 of low-friction material sliding on the rails 52 in the same manner as do the pads 41 supporting the movable platen 12.
Although rack-and-pinion couplings and other linkages could be used in the system of FIG. 5 to correlate the motions of the three moving platens 12, 113 and 213, I have simply shown their plates interconnected by rods 61, 62, 63 fixedly secured to lateral lugs 64, 65, 66 on the male mold portions 21, 22, 223 and slidably guided in lateral lugs 67, 68, 69 on the female mold portions 123, 224 and 124. These rods are surrounded by respective compression springs 71, 72, 73 tending to separate the corresponding mold portions upon the retraction of platen 12 while yielding under the compressive force of the mold drive during the closure stroke. This arrangement is, of course, symmetrically duplicated on both sides of the stack.
It will be apparent that the number of intermediate platens can be further increased, if desired, and that the outrigger configurations of FIGS. 2-4 could also be used with the assembly of FIGS. 5 and 6. It may also be pointed out that the outrigger arms carrying the shoes 145' and 245" of FIG. 5 can be further extended toward platens 11 and 12, respectively, without interfering with the operation of the mold.
When it is necessary to remove an intermediate platen from the machine, as for changing the attached mold plates, it is merely necessary to disconnect the two outriggers (or, in the assembly of FIG. 3 or 4, the lower outrigger) and the pinions 30 or equivalent couplings therefrom. If the outriggers engage the two upper tie bars, then only their stirrups (if any) need to be detached aside from these couplings to facilitate the withdrawal of the platen.

Acidovorax sp. strain JS42 is able to utilize 2-nitrotoluene (2NT) as its sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source. We report here that strain JS42 is chemotactic to 2NT and that the response is increased when cells are grown on compounds such as 2NT that are known to induce the first step of 2NT degradation. Assays with JS42 mutants unable to oxidize 2NT showed that the first step of 2NT metabolism was required for the induced response, but not for a portion of the constitutive response, indicating that 2NT itself is an attractant. The 2NT metabolite nitrite was shown to be a strong attractant for strain JS42, and sufficient nitrite was produced during the taxis assay to account for a large part of the induced response. A mutant with an inactivated ntdY gene, which is located adjacent to the 2NT degradation genes and codes for a putative methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein, showed a defect in taxis toward 2NT that may involve a reduced response to nitrite. Responses of a mutant defective for the energy-taxis receptor, Aer, indicated that a functional aer gene is required for a substantial part of the wild-type induced response to 2NT. In summary, strain JS42 utilizes three types of taxis to sense and respond to 2NT: constitutive 2NT-specific chemotaxis to directly sense 2NT, metabolism-dependent nitrite-specific chemotaxis that may be mediated by NtdY, and energy taxis mediated by Aer.

Wild-type JS42m responses in the qualitative capillary assay. Responses to buffer (negative control) or succinate (10 mM; positive control) (A) or to 2NT (saturated; ∼4.4 mM) after growth with succinate alone (10 mM) compared to growth in the presence of possible inducers (B) are shown. The concentration of all inducer compounds was 500 μM. 3MC, 3-methylcatechol; 2NBA, 2-nitrobenzyl alcohol. The responses of all cultures to 10 mM succinate were comparable (data not shown).
Chemotactic response to nitrite and generation of nitrite from 2NT during the qualitative capillary assay performed with wild-type JS42m. (A) Responses to ∼4.4 mM nitrite by uninduced and 2NT-induced JS42m. (B) Determination of the amounts of nitrite accumulating at the tips of capillaries containing various nitrite concentrations after 20 min. Approximately 10 μM nitrite accumulated at the tip of a capillary containing 2.5 mM nitrite (arrows). The presence or absence of cells did not affect the accumulation of nitrite. The limit of detection of the nitrite assay is approximately 2 μM. (C) Comparison of induced responses of JS42m to 2NT (∼4.4 mM) and 2.5 mM nitrite. The 2.5 mM nitrite in the capillary corresponds to the approximate amount of nitrite generated by induced cells from 4.4 mM 2NT during a 20-min assay. (D) Comparison of uninduced responses of JS42m to 2NT (∼4.4 mM) and 0.5 mM nitrite. The 0.5 mM nitrite in the capillary corresponds to approximately 4 μM nitrite in solution at the mouth of the capillary (see panel B).
Chemotactic response to 2NT (∼4.4 mM) in the qualitative capillary assay by JS42m and mutant derivatives following growth in uninduced and 2NT-induced conditions. Photographs were taken after 20 min. The response after 60 min is also shown for strain CAR22, since the peak response was delayed. All strains showed a strong response to succinate (positive control; data not shown).
Tactic responses to 2NT (∼4.4 mM) of the wild type (JS42m), ntdY mutant (CAR3), complemented ntdY mutant (CAR3[pCAR27]), ntdAc mutant (CAR20), and ntdAc mutant expressing the nbzY gene (CAR20[pCAR27]) in the qualitative capillary assay after growth in uninduced and 2NT-induced conditions and to the 2NT metabolite nitrite (4.4 mM) after growth in uninduced conditions. The responses of all strains to 10 mM succinate were comparable (data not shown).
Responses of the wild type (JS42m), aer deletion mutant (CAR5), and complemented aer mutant (CAR5[pCAR9]) in soft agar plates containing 2 mM 2NT after incubation for 2 days at 30°C. Strain CAR24 (cheA::Km) was used as a negative control. (A) Representative 2NT soft agar plate. (B) Averaged colony diameters in 2NT soft agar plates (n = 6; error bars represent standard deviations). Different letters indicate significantly different means as calculated by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) (Tukey multiple comparison test; P < 0.05).
Responses of the wild type and the receptor mutants to 2NT. (A) Qualitative capillary assay results (∼4.4 mM 2NT) after growth under uninduced and 2NT-induced conditions. (B) Representative soft agar plate containing 2 mM 2NT after incubation for 3 days at 30°C. Strain CAR24 (cheA::Km) was used as a negative control. (C) Averaged colony diameters in 2NT soft agar plates (n = 4; error bars represent standard deviations).

How can Wii Sports teach us about metaphysics? Can playing World of Warcraft lead to greater self-consciousness? How can we learn about aesthetics, ethics and divine attributes from Zork , Grand Theft Auto , and Civilization ? A variety of increasingly sophisticated video games are rapidly overtaking books, films, and television as America's most popular form of media entertainment. It is estimated that by 2011 over 30 percent of US households will own a Wii console - about the same percentage that owned a television in 1953. In Philosophy Through Video Games, Jon Cogburn and Mark Silcox - philosophers with game industry experience - investigate the aesthetic appeal of video games, their effect on our morals, the insights they give us into our understanding of perceptual knowledge, personal identity, artificial intelligence, and the very meaning of life itself, arguing that video games are popular precisely because they engage with longstanding philosophical problems. Topics covered include: * The Problem of the External World * Dualism and Personal Identity * Artificial and Human Intelligence in the Philosophy of Mind * The Idea of Interactive Art * The Moral Effects of Video Games * Games and God's Goodness Games discussed include: Madden Football , Wii Sports , Guitar Hero , World of Warcraft , Sims Online , Second Life , Baldur's Gate , Knights of the Old Republic , Elder Scrolls , Zork , EverQuest Doom , Halo 2 , Grand Theft Auto , Civilization , Mortal Kombat , Rome: Total War , Black and White , Aidyn Chronicles Read Less

Ed Reardon's Week: The Complete Third Series
Narrated by: Christopher Douglas, John Fortune, Stephanie Cole
Ed Reardon (Christopher Douglas) - author, pipe smoker, fare-dodger, and master of the abusive email - returns for a third series. In these six episodes, Ed finds his literary juices are flowing after a new commission, and a visit by his father brings thoughts of inheritance to the misanthropic writer’s mind. As well as venting his spleen writing corporate scripts, Ed also uses his skills to update obituaries - and produces a savage profile of an old friend.
Funny, but all the series should be sold as 1 book
By Diana on 11-09-17
Set during World War Two, Hut 33 follows the adventures of a team of codebreakers at Bletchley Park as they work tirelessly to break German codes, matching wits with the fabled Enigma Machine. Unfortunately, they hate each other.
Archie is a stroppy Geordie socialist revolutionary while Professor Charles Gardner is a toffee-nosed snob. In theory, the immensely stupid 3rd Lt. Joshua Featherstonhaugh-Marshall is in charge of the hut, but he is still struggling with even the most basic concepts, such as his name. They are joined by child prodigy Gordon and the silent Winstanley. There's also Mrs Best, the lascivious landlady, and the hut's Polish secretary, Minka, the only competent member of the team - although her answers to everything usually involve violence.
Starring Tom Goodman-Hill as Archie, Robert Bathurst as Professor Charles Gardner, Alex MacQueen as 3rd Lt. Joshua Featherstonhaugh-Marshall, Fergus Craig as Gordon, Lill Roughley as Mrs Best, and Olivia Colman as Minka.
Produced by Adam Bromley.
A very funny show that am glad to have in my collection (prior to this release only series 2was available).
Sitcom based at Bletchley Park in WW2.
Rather dated and more than a little offensive
I found this funny in parts, but was put off by the overt homophobia and racism.

The Interest Roller Coaster - The Washington Post
The Interest Roller Coaster
INTEREST RATES are now dropping, which is a good thing. But they are dropping fast, which is not. It's another sign of the economy's weakness in the developing recession.
Interest rates, like the inflation that lifts them, had been going up ever since 1977. One useful guide is the prime rate -- the interest charged by big banks to their best commercial customers. It went up to 15 percent last fall after the currency crisis, when the Federal Reserve Board tightened monetary policy to rescue the falling dollar. It inched up further over the winter, while the inflation rate was accelerating dangerously. That led to another drop in the dollar's international value, and another presidential attack on inflation. That was the mid-March speech in which Mr. Carter pledged to balance next year's busget, and reported another tightening of credit by the Fed. In response, interest went to unprecedented levels. By early Arpil, the prime rate was 20 percent.
Interest rates are set in the uneasy tension between borrowers and the Fed. The Fed sets, at least roughly, the amount of money to be lent and borrowers bid for it. Each side spends a great deal of effort trying to guess what the other is going to do next.
In the first half of April, a lot of borrowers dropped out of a market that has become prohibitively expensive for them. That was the Fed's purpose -- to force people to be much more restrained and cautious in their borrowing. The bidding fell off and, on April 16, the prime rate began to drop. It's now back down, at some banks, to 17 percent.
But even at that price, businesses are taking fewer loans than expected and the money supply has dropped well below the Fed's target. It gives rise to speculation that the Fed will conclude that it has overdone its squeeze, and will now make more money available to the banks to lend to their customers. That would push rates down even faster. But the Fed's chairman, Paul Volcker, has repeatedly said that significant improvements in interest can come only after significant improvements in inflation. What's happening to the inflation rate? The Producer Price Index for April shows a sharp drop. The Consumer Price Index comes in two weeks. If the improvement is dramatic, financial relaxation seems likely.
The sharp swings in interest rates over the past two months demonstrate the anxiety and uncertainty that currently rule the money markets.
Under these circumstances, neither the Fed nor any other authority can be entirely sure what effect its actions will have. Inflation has changed the rules of the game and deranged the careful calibrations that used to guide policy.
