Title: Method and arrangement for finely grinding minerals intended for use as fillers
IPC: B02C17/16
Filed: 1992-02-21
Granted: 1993-02-25
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for finely-grinding minerals and similar material intended for use as filler material to a particle size appropriate for this purpose, with the aid of a mill which operates with agitated grinding medium and in which the material is ground in a substantially dry state. The invention is characterized by predetermining the stay time of the material being ground in the mill; maintaining the predetermined stay time partly by discharging ground material from the mill at a predetermined, essentially constant rate, and partly by adjusting the infeed of material to the mill in relation to the quantity of material discharged from the mill such that the amount of material present in the mill increases during the infeed of material thereto; and by interrupting the infeed of material to the mill over a predetermined short period of time when the material reaches a predetermined highest level in said mill. The invention also relates to an arrangement for carrying out the method. This arrangement is characterized in that it includes a first motor-driven device which functions to control the infeed of material, a mill for grinding with the aid of an agitated grinding medium, a perforated disc which functions to separate grinding medium from the ground material leaving the mill, a second motor-driven device which functions to maintain a substantially constant outfeed of ground material from the mill, and a level monitor which is mounted in the upper part of the mill and connected to the motor-driven infeed device. <IMAGE>

Title: Device for shared management of a resource among several users
Inventor: DESPRES REMI
IPC: G06F13/16
Filed: 1998-11-24
Granted: 2002-05-09
Abstract: The device comprises a memory (3) for storing several user share parameters and several amounts capable of advancing. A decision means (6) allocates a chosen service slice of the resource to a user selected as possessing the least advanced amount. It subsequently advances his amount according to a chosen increment. A memory link means (5) defines user queues of “FIFO” type, such that the user having the least advanced amount in a queue appears at the head of this queue. According to the invention, the memory (3) stores a limited number of values of increments. The memory link means (5) associates one of these values of increments with each user and allocates an increment value to each queue.

Title: Digital tone control
Inventor: EGGERMONT LUDWIG DESIRE JOHAN
IPC: H03G5/00
Filed: 1983-03-30
Granted: 1986-09-11
Abstract: Digital tone control arrangement for a digital audio signal, comprising a recursive digital filter whose transfer function contains as many poles as there are zeros, the recursive filter also comprising a recursive portion and a non-recursive portion each receiving filter coefficients which are stored in a memory means. So as to limit the total number of filter coefficients the memory means is divided into a first memory field for storing a first sub-group of filter coefficients and into a number of second memory fields in each of which a second subgroup of filter coefficients is stored. By means of a switching device the first subgroup of the filter coefficients is applied either to the non-recursive portion or to the recursive portion and a selected second subgroup of filter coefficients is applied to that portion (recursive and the non-recursive) to which the first subgroup of filter coefficients is not applied.

Title: Processes for preparing hydrophobic inorganic oxide pigments
Inventor: KOSTELNIK ROBERT J
IPC: C09C3/12
Filed: 2000-11-10
Granted: 2004-03-25
Abstract: The present invention provides a treatment method for rendering inorganic oxide particles, such as TiO2 pigment, hydrophobic by predispersing a suitably reactive organohalosilane into an aqueous media, using intensive mixing means (such as a rotor stator emulsifier or inline static mixer) to form a reactive dispersion. When this dispersion is combined with inorganic oxide particles, such as TiO2 pigment, under sufficient agitation, a hydrophobic inorganic oxide can be formed. The oxides formed by the present invention have good mechanical properties, such as dispersibility in nonpolar substances (i.e., plastics), and they do not degrade physical properties of the pigmented nonpolar substance, such as lacing resistance of thermoplastics.

Filed: 1983-12-14
Granted: 1987-05-21
Abstract: A method of making a parallel programmed electronic matrix array includes forming at least one layer of a phase changeable material on a conductive substrate, the material preferably formed of amorphous material and having substantially nonconductive and comparatively high conductive states, and irradiating selected areas of the layer to convert them to the other state. Thereafter, in a preprogrammed embodiment, first and second sets of electrically conductive address lines are formed on respective opposite sides of the layer such that they cross each other at an angle to form a plurality of crossover points. In a field programmable array, the selected areas are irradiated through one set of lines.In accordance with another embodiment, the selected areas are irradiated through a mask. One set of lines is preferably formed by removing portions of the conductive substrate. The other can be formed by detecting the locations of the layer portions of one of the states and aligning the lines on the layer according to such detection.A diode structure can be formed with or in place of the phase changeable material.

Abstract: Specific binding assays are disclosed which utilize a sensitizer as a label. Such sensitizers include any moiety which, when stimulated by "excitation" with radiation of one or more wavelengths or other chemical or physical stimulus (e.g., electron transfer, electrolysis, electroluminescence or energy transfer), will achieve an excited state which (a) upon interaction with molecular oxygen will produce singlet molecular oxygen, or (b) upon interaction with a leucodye will assume a reduced form which can then be returned to its original unexcited state by interaction with molecular oxygen resulting in the production of hydrogen peroxide. Either interaction with the excited sensitizer will, with the addition of other reagents, produce a detectable signal.
