Title: Drilling apparatus for producing drilled holes with undercuts
Inventor: EISCHEID KARL
IPC: B23B51/00
Filed: 1992-03-30
Granted: 1994-06-09
Abstract: Drilling device (90) for making undercut holes, having a drill (15), the drilling shank (19) of which has a side cutting edge (14), projecting radially beyond the periphery (18) of the drilling shank, and a flat on its periphery (18) opposite the side cutting edge (14), which flat enables the side cutting edge (14) to be inserted into the hole, and is firmly connected to an articulated connecting coupling (20) which permits wobbling shank movements during the rotation of the drill (15), is arranged between the drill (15) and a drill drive and has a coupling piece (28) on the drill-drive side with an axially movable pressure body (85) which can be supported on an inclined surface (17) of a coupling piece (29) connected to the drilling shank (19), which inclined surface (17) effects a radial advance of the side cutting edge (14). In order to improve a drilling device (90) having the features mentioned at the beginning in such a way that the drill (15) can be positively guided against radial movements when the pilot hole (12) is being made in the workpiece (46) by axial feed of the drill (15) or can be pulled out of the completed undercut hole even if self-alignment, effected by centrifugal force, of the coupling piece (29) on the drilling-shank side is not possible or is not possible to an adequate degree, this device is designed in such a way that the pressure body (85) axially overlaps the coupling piece (29) on the drilling-shank side in a position not acted upon axially and is radially coupled in a positive-locking manner to this coupling piece (29). <IMAGE>

Title: Propylene oxide process using alkaline earth metal compound-supported silver catalysts
Inventor: KAHN ANDREW
IPC: B01J23/66
Filed: 1997-03-14
Granted: 2000-04-06
Abstract: Propylene is oxidized to propylene oxide in the vapor phase using an oxygen-containing gas and a supported silver catalyst comprising silver and a support comprised in whole or in substantial part of certain alkaline earth metal compounds. The alkaline earth metal compound may, for example, be a calcium compound such as calcium titanate, tribasic calcium phosphate, calcium molybdate, or calcium fluoride, a magnesium compound such as magnesium aluminate, or a strontium compound such as strontium titanate. Such supports provide significantly higher selectivity to the desired epoxide than would be expected from the performance of related materials. Propylene oxide selectivity may be further enhanced through the introduction of nitrogen oxide species such as NO, alkyl halides such as ethyl chloride, and carbon dioxide into the oxygen-containing gas.

Date Feb. 22, 1996A gripping device (10) is described which has an inner member (14) and an outer member (12). The inner member has a split (20) which define a first end (6) and a second end (8). A selectively operable device (18) is also included to keep the first and second ends (6, 8) apart to permit the device (10) to be placed around an object (30) and to permit the first and second ends (6, 8) to move towards each other so that the inner member (14) grips the object (30). At least part of an outer face (26) of the inner member (14) interfits with at least a part of an inner face (22) of the outer member (12) in a manner such that when a load is applied to the outer member (12), the inner face (22) of the outer member (12) acts upon the inner member (14) to cause compression of the inner member (14) thereby increasing the grip of the inner member (14) on the object (30). The device (10) is then locked in position on the object (30) and when the load is removed the action of the outer member (12) on the inner member (14) is reduced thereby decreasing the grip of the inner member (14) on the object (30) and unlocking the device (10) from the object (30).
