Patent GB-977853-A (GB)
IPC: D01F6/60
Abstract: 977,853. Melt spinning polyamide filaments. BRITISH NYLON SPINNERS Ltd. Jan. 15, 1963 [Jan. 18, 1962], No. 1832/62. Heading B5B. Oriented synthetic linear polyamide filaments having an initial modulus of at least 25 g/d/ 100% extension and an initial modulus after immersion in boiling water of at least 15 g/d/ 100% extension comprise 50 to 95% by weight of a linear aliphatic polyamide and 5 to 50% by weight of a polyamide in which the polymer chain repeat unit contains an arylene linkage and optionally contains an oxygen bridge linked to at least one arylene group, the polyamides being melt-blended together prior to being melt spun. The aliphatic polyamide may be polyhexamethylene adipamide and the other may be poly (hexamethylene 1: 4 diphenylbutane - p,p<SP>1</SP> - dicarbonamide), poly (hexamethylene naphthalene 2: 7 bisoxyacetamide), or poly (2: 5 dimethyl p-phenylene bis-#-ethyl sebacamide). By melt blending is meant the heating together of two or more preformed homopolyamides at or near the polymerization temperature for a sufficient length of time for a homogeneous melt to be produced. The heating should preferably not be continued beyond this point. The filaments may be produced by melt blending the polyamides in the absence of oxygen, melt spinning the blend into filaments and subsequently drawing the filaments at a temperature of at least 100‹ C. and a draw ratio of at least 3:1. The melt blending may be effected by charging the finely divided mixed homopolyamides into an autoclave in which all air has been replaced by an inert gas such as nitrogen and stirring the mixture at a temperature at which it is completely molten until the melt is homogeneous. The melt may be transferred direct from the autoclave to a spinning head and melt spun immediately so that the time during which the blend is maintained in the molten state is minimal. Alternatively the melt-blending may be effected by the intimate mixing of the polyamides fed directly to the melt pool of a spinning head from two continuous polymerizing apparatuses. Specifications 924,630 and 977,854 are referred to.

Title: Voice processing system
Inventor: BORMAN SAMUEL DAVID
IPC: H04M3/487
Filed: 1998-06-09
Abstract: A voice processing complex has a plurality of host machines, each host machine supporting one or more voice applications, at least one host in the complex including telephony hardware for providing access to a plurality of telephone lines. Such a host provides telephony functions to the complex. This is achieved by maintaining a mapping of voice applications to telephone lines, and creating a call object in response to an incoming call on one of the lines. It is then determined which voice application to associate with the incoming call on the basis of this mapping, and an identifier to the call object is then passed to the determined voice application. Thereafter the call object is responsive to requests from this voice application for providing telephony functions for the call. This includes receiving a media object from the voice processing application which represents desired output over a telephone line. This media object is then processed into a plurality of output components in accordance with one or more presentation criteria, and these components are then output over the telephone line. Typically the output component are voice segments, and the presentation criteria include locale information.

Title: Processing waste water
Inventor: FUJIHATA KENJI
IPC: C02F1/461
Filed: 1998-12-02
Abstract: In a processing method of waste water, electrolysis is carried out by feeding the waste water containing nitrogen compounds into an anode room 4 of an electrolytic bath in which a diaphragm 3 having selective ion-permeability is disposed between electrodes, thereby reduced nitrogen compounds such as hydrazine or ammonium ion in the waste water is oxidized by oxygen generated at an anode to a nitrogen gas and is removed from the waste water. Further, after being oxidized like this, the second electrolysis is carried out by feeding only the oxidized liquid into a cathode room 5, thereby nitrogen oxides such as a nitrate ion or a nitrite ion in the liquid are reduced to a nitrogen gas and can be removed from the waste water. Thus, without generating the secondary waste even under normal temperature and normal pressure, the nitrogen compounds can be efficiently removed from the waste water generated from a thermal power plant.

Title: A brake modulation arrangement
Inventor: MACDONALD MICHAEL JOHN LOUIS
IPC: B60T8/48
Filed: 1999-06-02
Abstract: A brake modulation arrangement in which an auxiliary feed pathway 221 is used to provide brake fluid to a recirculation pump 211 in order to ensure there is adequate fluid flow through the brake modulation arrangement to actuate respective brake cylinders 205 to 208 within a predetermined time period for vehicle stability systems. The auxiliary feed pathway 221 incorporates a non-return valve 222 to ensure brake fluid cannot return through the pathway 221 to the reservoir. By such means, the viscosity varying effects of low temperature, e.g.on vehicle start-up, can be substantially by-passed by the pathway 221 ensuring there is always adequate brake fluid presented to a recirculation pump 211 for sufficient fluid flow rate as required. An accumulator 223 and a release valve 224 are also provided. The arrangement illustrated is essentially high pressure, but in an essentially low pressure arrangement (Fig.2) accumulator 223 and valve 224 are omitted.
