Abstract: The burner has a secondary air tube (3) placed around the longitudinal axis (27) of the burner and closed by an end wall (38) at the end away from the burner mouth (2). The secondary air tube is enclosed by a primary mixer pipe (4) which introduces primary air or a mixture of gas and fuel and which has a flow stabilising area (49) placed upstream in the flow direction of the primary mixture. Secondary air (19) is brought in through an inlet housing (28) which encloses part of the primary mixer pipe and forms a radial channel (40) which is connected to the internal cross section of the secondary air tube through ducts (35) which cross the ring shaped cross section and feed secondary air from the channel into the secondary air pipe.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of making a epoxysilicone coated membrane by coating a porous asymmetric membrane layer with a UV-curable controlled release epoxysilicone coating. A mixture of the epoxysilicone resin and an onium photocatalyst are applied to the porous asymmetric membrane layer in a dilute non-polar solution and cured by UV or electron beam radiation to produce a dry epoxysilicone coated membrane. The porous asymmetric membrane layer is comprised of an asymmetric cellulosic membrane or an asymmetric polymer membrane with a low selectivity. The epoxysilicone coating was found to provide the asymmetric membrane layer with improved selectivity which extends to separation temperatures below 70 °C and provides stable flux rates. Membranes produced in this manner are useful for the separation of gases such as carbon dioxide from natural gas.

Abstract: An automated or semi-automated defibrillator (AED) system includes an AED and a cartridge attachable to the AED. The cartridge includes electrode pads and a power source such as a battery or fuel cell, which may recharge a defibrillator battery, power defibrillator circuitry, or both. Because the cartridge includes both a power source and electrode pads, one can replace the power source and the pads at the same time by replacing a single cartridge. Furthermore, in defibrillator systems where the power source charges the defibrillator battery, the power source can be selected to have the same life as the pads, thus making it practical to replace the power source and pads at the same time. In addition, maintenance for such a charging defibrillator system typically costs less than for a non-charging system because it often costs less to replace the power source than to replace the defibrillator battery.

Abstract: A method and device for controlled straightening and cooling of a wide metal strip, especially a steel strip or sheet metal, running out of a hot rolled strip rolling mill, using pinching rollers arranged in the moving direction of the strip behind vertical double rollers, said pinching rollers producing a tensile stress acting in a longitudinal direction. According to the invention, the range of use of conventional sheet metal cooling systems can be extended to obtain a more even surface of said steel strip with an increased cooling effect. This is achieved by displacing the metal strip or sheet metal between a pre-straightening machine and splash cooling facility in defined conditions of tensile stress by adjusting the tensile stress and by cooling said strip or sheet metal inside said splash cooling facility between successive pairs of pinching rollers and by additionally controlling the tensile stress.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant de détecter un repère d'alignement associé à un objet qui assure une meilleure résolution entre des entrées adaptées et des entrées non adaptées. Le repère d'alignement représente une séquence de codes binaires. Lorsqu'un détecteur détecte une séquence de bits, la séquence détectée est envoyée à un filtre de couplage de code qui compare la séquence détectée à la séquence de codes binaires et produit un signal de détection. Le filtre de couplage de code augmente une valeur du signal de détection pour chaque paire appariée de bits comparés et diminue la valeur du signal de détection pour chaque paire non appariée de bits comparés. De cette manière, une pénalité est évaluée pour les non concordances. Ceci produit une sortie de filtre qui présente une amplitude élevée en réponse à une entrée appariée et une faible amplitude pour les entrées non appariées. Le système peut échantillonner la séquence de bits détectée de telle sorte que les problèmes potentiels de synchronisation des bords soient éliminés.
