IPC: G01N27/07
Filed: 1993-04-02
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB91/01731 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 5, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 5, 1993 PCT Filed Oct. 4, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/06368 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 16, 1992.The measurement of electrokinetic potential is of importance in paper-making. A measuring cell (12) for a specific potential known as streaming potential of the kind disclosed in EP B1 0 079 726 is now provided with measuring electrodes (40, 42) of a metal which forms a reversible electrochemical reaction with pure water to oxidize the metal. The electrodes (40, 42) used in the measurement mode in the cell have a film comprising an oxide of the metal electrochemically formed thereover. Such electrodes are found to give more stable and consistent measurement than the stainless steel electrodes used previously. Silver, lead, copper and alloys such as lead and silver are preferred. The measuring electrodes (40, 42) are regenerated within the cell (12) through electrochemical reduction to bare metal, followed by oxidation to re-form the film. This is performed with the aid of auxiliary electrodes (60, 62) in the cell. A control system (50) for the measurement and regeneration mode is described. Excess excursions of the measurement mode voltage are monitored to indicate that the regeneration procedure is to be entered. The measuring electrode (42) in the cell compartment (22) in which the measurement pad is formed is provided with a shroud (13) to protect it during the flushing of the pad from the mesh (14) in the cell.

Filed: 1993-07-22
Abstract: A multilayer plastic container for use with either a positive or negative pressure dispensing system, the container having an integral body with an inner layer which readily separates from an outer layer and collapses to dispense a product from the container. The container is formed by blow-molding a multilayer preform, and a bottom aperture is formed in the container for injecting air to separate the inner layer from the outer layer. Preferably, the inner layer is predelaminated during manufacture to facilitate its later separation during use. In the case of vacuum dispening, air inlet vent holes are preferably formed at the points of maximum deformation to prevent collapse of the outer layer.

Abstract: 877,646. Toothed gearing. IMPERIAL CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd. Nov. 30, 1959 [Jan. 13, 1959 (4)], Nos. 1284/59, 1285/59, 1286/59 and 1287/59. Class 80 (1). Where at least one nylon gear is used in a toothed gear train, the nylon gear or a mating gear is arranged to take up back lash, caused by changes in ambient humidity and consequent changes in dimensions of the nylon gear, by forming it into parts 1, 2, Figs. 1-3, of the first Provisional Specification, one being attached to a shaft and the other being rotatable relatively thereto under the control of an arcuate element 3 accommodated in cut out portions of the gear parts and having a projection 6 engaging the part 1 and a projection 5 engaging the part 2 and being of a material dimensionally stable to change in humidity, for example, steel, if the gear is nylon, and vice versa. Thus as the two nylon wheels 1, 2 expand on moisture absorption, the arcuate element 3 causes relative rotation between the wheels 1, 2 thus reducing their combined tooth gap. In Figs. 1-4 of the second Provisional Specification, not shown, a control arm is journalled about a gear-shaft axis and accommodated in recesses between the gear parts and at its other end has a projection extending in both axial directions for engaging complementary inclined cross-slots in the gear parts, so that if the gear parts are of nylon and the arm of dimensionally stable material and vice versa, relative expansion and contraction causes relative rotation of the gear parts by the projection sliding in the slots to take up back-lash. The control arm may be accommodated outside the gear parts and a pair of control members may be used. Details of design considerations are given.
