Granted: 2023-07-28
Abstract: Un cabezal de afeitado eléctrico de cuatro hojas 10 adaptado para conectarse a una afeitadora eléctrica 12 que incluye un mango 14 y un motor eléctrico para hacer funcionar el cabezal de afeitado. El cabezal incluye cuatro cortadores giratorios 18, 20, 22, 24 dispuestos en configuración cuadrada y cuatro soportes 26, 28, 30, 32 también dispuestos en configuración cuadrada. Cada uno de los soportes sostiene uno de los cortadores. Los bordes interiores 34, 36, 38, 40 de los cuatro soportes definen un punto 50 en el centro del cabezal de la afeitadora. Un alojamiento 52 para los soportes incluye una superficie superior 54. Los soportes quedan retenidos por el alojamiento pero están montados para un movimiento pivotante de modo que los bordes interior y exterior puedan moverse hacia arriba y hacia abajo. Un resorte 72 desvía los soportes en una posición en la que los bordes exteriores quedan por encima de la superficie superior del alojamiento y en la que los soportes se inclinan hacia abajo hacia el centro formando así una superficie de afeitado cóncava. Los soportes están interconectados entre sí para girar siempre al unísono.  (Traducción automática con Google Translate, sin valor legal)

Filed: 1986-10-09
Granted: 1992-11-16
Abstract: This invention concerns a process for monitoring and/or regulating cloth tension of a length of cloth processed on a cylinder napping machine, whereby the napping machine has pile rollers and/or counterpile rollers on the jacket of the cylinder which subject the cloth to pile-raising energy and/or counterpile-raising energy, and a certain set point tension value which assures optimum distribution of cloth tension on the cylinder is set at the cloth inlet and the cloth delivery end of the napping machine, during operation the cloth tension is measured preferably continuously and controlled at the inlet end and the outlet end and the tension values are compared, and in the event of a deviation from the predetermined tension values the respective deviating tension is automatically adjusted again to the predetermined set point value. This invention also concerns a cylinder napping machine with pile rollers and/or counterpile rollers mounted on the jacket of the cylinder, a feed roll at the cloth feed and a delivery roll at the cloth delivery end, and a measurement unit for measuring the cloth tension is provided at the cloth feed and another unit is provided at the cloth delivery end.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are employed to reduce the sulfur dioxide produced by the combustion of a sulfur-containing fuel in a combustion chamber. Part of the combustion air is introduced into the combustion chamber with and closely adjacent the fuel. Another part of the combustion air is introduced into the combustion chamber above and downstream of the fuel and relatively remote therefrom under conditions which buffer the flame front and reduce peak flame temperatures therein. Finely divided limestone particles or the like are aspirated into the combustion chamber by the air introduced above the fuel and distributed thereby throughout the gases flowing downstream through the combustion chamber wherein the limestone particles are calcined to lime particles which react with the sulfur dioxide in the combustion reaction gases to produce calcium sulfate. There is no premixing of the particles and the aspirating air before they enter the combustion chamber. Various parameters are controlled to produce the desired results. <IMAGE>
