Patent CA-2349250-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FRITSCH RUDY
IPC: B21D5/02
Filed: 2001-05-29
Abstract: A press brake is comprised of a frame having a bed secured thereto with a ram displaceable to and away from the bed whereby to form metal sheets positioned on the bed. The ram is secured to a hydraulic piston through opposed symmetrical linkage assemblies. Each linkage assembly is connected adjacent opposed ends of the ram and includes a lever member pivotally secured to the frame by an anchor pin pivot connection. A link arm interconnects the lever member to the ram by pivot pin connections adjacent opposed ends of the link arm. An interconnecting bar interconnects the lever member of each linkage assembly together by a further pivot pin connection adjacent opposed ends of the interconnecting bar. The ram displacement piston has a piston rod end which is connected to the interconnecting bar by a pivot pin whereby to displace the interconnecting bar to cause the linkage assemblies to pivot in unison on their anchor pin pivot connection to cause the ram to be displaced in substantially perfect parallel relationship with the bed.      The symmetrical linkage assemblies have identical pivot pin and anchor pin connections whereby wear of these connections during operation is substantially the same on opposed sides of the ram to ensure continuous parallel displacement of the ram.

Patent CA-2354007-A1 (CA)
Title: Multi-layer cathode structures
Inventor: MIRTCHI AMIR A
IPC: C25C3/08
Filed: 1999-11-16
Abstract: In one aspect, the process comprises providing a carbonaceous cathode substrate, and forming at least one layer of a metal boride-containing composite refractory material over the substrate, wherein the surface of the carbonaceous substrate to be coated is roughened prior to the formation of the layer overlying the said surface. The roughening of the surfaces reduces the tendency of the layers to separate in high temperature operating conditions. In another aspect, the process comprises providing a carbonaceous cathode substrate, and forming at least two coating layers of a metal boride-containing composite refractory material successively over the substrate, wherein the content of metal boride in the coating layers increases progressively as the distance of the layer from the substrate increases. By graduating the content of metal boride among several coating layers, the effect of differences in thermal expansion rates between carbon and metal boride are attenuated. The metal of the metal boride is selected from the group consisting of titanium, zirconium, vanadium, hafnium, niobium, tantalum, chromium and molybdenum.
