Title: A transmission device, more particularly for a vehicle, and a control method for relating thereto
Inventor: ANTONOV ROUMEN
IPC: F16D25/0638
Filed: 1995-08-17
Granted: 1999-08-26
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FR95/01091 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 14, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 14, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 17, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/06293 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 29, 1996A planet gear (9) connected to the input shaft (2a) and a planet carrier (13) connected to the output shaft (18) can be coupled by a clutch (18) operated in clamping by fly weights (29) and a spring (34) to bring about direct engagement. If clamping is insufficient for torque to be transmitted, the crown wheel (8) slows down and is then immobilized by the free wheel (16). The device then acts as a reduction gear, with a piston (44) acting on the housing (2) in the direction which will release the clutch (18) and applying a brake (43) preventing the crown wheel (8) from rotating even in the direction normally permitted by the free wheel (16). Narrow bleed ducts (151, 172) of a chamber (40) associated with a piston (44) and a damping chamber (171) prevent sudden variations in the state of the clutch (18). The transmission device enables operation as a reduction gear, especially when the vehicle engine is used as a brake, and operates at low speed or at high load, while avoiding shocks produced when the piston is activated or deactivated.

IPC: C14C1/08
Filed: 1993-01-27
Granted: 1995-11-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for pickling and pretanning hides, which is characterised in that   (I) the hides are pickled in an aqueous liquor A which is free from salts, and (a) contains a product of the reaction of phenol and a sulphonating agent, where the phenol:SO3 molar ratio is from 1:1.1 to 2.2, and (II) the pickled hides are pretanned in the same bath by addition of an aqueous composition B containing (b) a reductive saccharide having a dextrose equivalent of from 10 to 100, and   (c) an aliphatic dialdehyde containing 2 to 8 carbon atoms.   The present combined one-bath pickling/pretanning process allows the production, in treatment baths which are free from neutral salts and heavy metals, of readily shavable wet-white leathers which are suitable for further processing by all customary tanning methods.

Title: Process for destroying toxic substances occuring during the elimination of organic refuse components
Inventor: KISS GUNTER H
IPC: B01D53/34
Filed: 1993-04-05
Granted: 1995-08-03
Abstract: A process for destroying toxic substances is described by irreversible substance decomposition of chemically relatively stable molecular structures occurring during the heat treatment of organic refuse constituents and whilst using a high temperature reactor. For this purpose, the reactor burner zone is supplied with a toxic substance-molecular structure mixture mixed with additional combustible gases raising the flame temperature and which is in liquid and/or gaseous form, in addition to oxygen in stoichiometric excess. The reaction gas thermally split off in the oxygen burner is then kept for at least 5 seconds in a stabilizing area of the reactor kept at a temperature of at least 1400 DEG  C. and subsequently is suddenly cooled from this temperature to at least 100 DEG  C.

Title: Indexable insert for end mills
Inventor: ASTROEM MAGNUS
IPC: B23C5/20
Filed: 1999-05-04
Granted: 2002-08-08
Abstract: A cutting insert comprises an upper chip surface (16), a bottom surface (17) and side faces (18, 19) therebetween. At each of the end faces the cutting insert has axially protruding portions (22, 23), each of which appears with a bevel face (26, 27). Main cutting edges are provided in the intersection between the chip surface (16) and the side surfaces (18, 19). On each side surface is provided a clearance surface (30) formed on a protruding portion (31) which via a step clearance extends into a secondary helically twisted clearance surface, the chip angle of which increases with increasing cutting depth. With the cutting insert regarded in plan view the bevel face is oriented in straight angle towards the main cutting edge (24, 25). Thanks to this embodiment is achieved constant functional edge angle along a wave-shaped edge line, which combined with step clearance and large positive axial angle ( alpha ) enables improved precision when machining a 90-degree shoulder in a work piece, which contributes to a more even wear along the main cutting edge and increased life-time of the cutting insert. <IMAGE>

Title: Methods and apparatus for performing ultrasonic assisted surgical procedures
Inventor: VAITEKUNAS JEFFREY J
IPC: A61B17/068
Filed: 1993-11-12
Granted: 1996-05-23
Abstract: Ultrasonic sensing systems are incorporated into surgical instruments to monitor operational fields defined by distal ends of the instruments. The instruments include proximal ends for their activation typically including one or a pair of handles which a surgeon grasps and operates, for example by squeezing the handles together or by pivotally moving a trigger portion of the handle relative to a fixed portion of the handle. Circuitry for performing ultrasonic sensing preferably is enclosed in housings defined within the handles of the proximal ends of the instruments. Wiring, preferably running through the instruments, connects the circuitry to transducers formed in or mounted on the distal ends of the surgical instruments. The transducers direct ultrasonic energy to the operational fields defined by the distal ends of the instruments and receive ultrasonic energy reflected from the operational fields. The direction for transmission and receipt of ultrasonic energy is determined by acoustic lenses, angularly oriented transducer mounts or a combination of the two. Signals representative of the tissue or contents of the operational fields of surgical instruments drive audible signal generators or preferably tactile transducers to inform the surgeon of the contents. Tactile transducers are mounted for access by the surgeon, preferably on the handles of the surgical instruments.

Title: Method and apparatus for treating salt streams
Inventor: MCBRAYER ROY NELSON JR
IPC: A62D101/40
Filed: 1999-06-09
Granted: 2002-05-16
Abstract: A method for avoiding the precipitation of salts from a salt containing water stream prior to the stream reaching a supercritical water reactor is presented. The salt containing water stream is preferably kept at temperatures below supercritical conditions as the stream is transferred to the reactor. After the salt stream reaches the reactor the temperature of the salt stream is preferably raised to the appropriate temperature by mixing the salt stream, within the reactor, with a second stream that has been heated above the supercritical temperature of water. Alternatively, a method for preventing the clogging of the conduits upstream from the reactor may involve the mixing of two subcritical waste streams. One stream may include salts, the other preferably includes oxidizable material. The heat produced by the reaction of the oxidizable materials within the reactor preferably allows the mixture to remain at supercritical conditions for a time sufficient to oxidize substantially all of the oxidizable material.

Title: Loop antenna with at least two resonant frequencies
Inventor: LEISTEN OLIVER PAUL
IPC: H01Q5/10
Filed: 2000-05-24
Granted: 2004-01-29
Abstract: A dielectrically-loaded antenna for operation at frequencies in excess of 200 MHz includes an antenna element structure disposed on a high dielectric constant core, which element structure comprises a pair of laterally opposed groups, of helical antenna elements. Each group comprises first and second mutually adjacent elements, of different thicknesses providing looped conductive paths on the antenna, formed by the first elements of each group and the second elements of each group respectively, which resonate at differing respective resonant frequencies to yield a relatively wide operating bandwidth. The helical elements of each group define, between them, part of an elongate channel which has an overall electrical length in the region of nlambd/2 within the operating frequency band to provide isolation between the looped conductive paths. The major part of each such channel is located between the elements so as to minimise intrusion with other parts of the antenna.
