Claim 1
Independent Claim
138 words
IN AN APPARATUS OF THE CHARACTER DESCRIBED: A PAIR OF OPPOSED, MASSIVE CRUSHER JAWS BETWEEN WHICH A SUBSTANCE TO BE CYCLICALLY SQUEEZED MAY BE POSITIONED, AND AT LEAST ONE OF WHICH IS VIBRATORY TOWARD AND FROM THE OTHER, A SONIC WAVE GENERATOR ADAPTED TO DELIVER AN ALTERNATING OUTPUT FORCE, AN ELASTICALLY VIBRATORY SOLID MATERIAL VIBRATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM HAVING A RANGE OF ELASTIC VIBRATION AND INTERCOUPLED BETWEEN SAID GENERATOR AND SAID VIBRATORY JAW, SO AS TO RECEIVE SAID ALTERNATING FORCE, UNDERGO CORREPSONDING ELASTIC VIBRATION, AND IMPART SAID VIBRATION TO SAID VIBRATORY JAW, AND A LIQUID CONFINING CAVITY BETWEEN SAID JAWS HAVING JOINTS BETWEEN RELATIVELY MOVING PARTS OF SAID JAWS WHICH RETAIN LIQUID IN A BODY SUBSTANTIALLY FILLING SAID CAVITY, WHEREBY PRESSURE CYCLES ARE GENERATED IN SAID RETAINED LIQUID BODY SO AS TO ACT UPON ELEMENTS INTRODUCED INTO SAID CAVITY.
