A light weight, strong die cast sole plate for a roller skate. The sole plate includes an action screw boss and a front truck ball socket in a sole plate toe portion. A central rib extends longitudinally between the action screw boss and the front ball socket. Diagonally disposed ribs extend from one side of the action screw boss to an opposite side of the front ball socket and cross the longitudinal rib. This structure permits production of a strong yet low cost sole plate.

A solar cooking device made of a flat array of concentric mirrors tilted to focus at a small area, the array being movable mounted on a stand to be movable around a ball joint and with a carrier for a cooking vessel held by a double crank to be at the focal area of the mirrors.

A hydrocracking process employing a hydrocracking catalyst based on zeolite beta together with a metal hydrogenation/dehydrogenation component recycles the unconverted, hydrocracked bottoms fraction to the hydrocracking step for improvements in distillate selectivity and denitrogenation without loss of catalyst activity while improving dewaxing of the unconverted bottoms fraction. The process typically operates at low to moderate hydrogen pressures up to 1500 psig (10445 kPa) with low hydrogen c...

A data-display system employs a display in which the representations of data objects are caused to move on the display in order to convey information about the represented data objects. In one example, icons in a link-analysis display that represent data objects satisfying a selection criterion are made to execute distinctive motion. In another example, three-dimensional models of moving bodies in whose features components of respective data objects are encoded are projected onto a screen plane,...

Heavy hydrocarbon oils of high paraffin content are catalytically cracked using zeolite beta. The paraffin content of the oil is at least 20 weight percent or higher. The gasoline cracking products have a high octane rating and the higher boiling products a decreased pour point resulting from the dewaxing activity of the zeolite beta. The use of cracking temperatures above 500.degree. C., preferably above 550.degree. C., also improves iso-butene production.

Heavy oils are simultaneously subjected to cracking and dewaxing in the absence of added hydrogen using a catalyst comprising Zeolite Beta and an X or Y or other faujasite zeolite. The process is able to effect a bulk conversion of the oil, while, at the same time, yielding a higher octane gasoline, increased yields of C.sub.3 and C.sub.4 olefins, and a low pour point distillate product.
