Abstract: The invention relates to a method for combining the operating modes of individual rolling frames in a tandem cold rolling mill comprising respective pairs of working rolls (10) and back-up rolls (12) in 4-roll frames and in addition a pair of intermediate rolls (11) in 6-roll frames, at least the working rolls (10) and the intermediate rolls (11) interacting with devices for axial displacement. Said method is characterised by a combination of the following technologies: use of CVC/CVCplus technology with CVC roll contours of a higher order, where each working/intermediate roll (10, 11) comprises a roll surface that is extended by the amount of the travel displacement; use of Pair Cross (PC) technology, whereby each working/intermediate roll (10, 11) can be pivoted parallel to the strip plane; use of strip-edge oriented displacement of the working/intermediate rolls (10, 11), each of the latter (10, 11) having a roll surface that is extended by the amount of the travel displacement, with a cylindrical or spherical section and said rolls being displaced symmetrically against one another relative to the neutral displacement position (sZW = 0 and sAW = 0) in the centre of the frame (Y-Y) by an identical amount in the direction of their rotational axes (X-X). The method is also characterised in that the CVC/CVCplus technology, the strip-edge oriented displacement technology and optionally the PC technology can be achieved using a suitable plant concept with a single geometrically identical set of rolls.

Title: Roofer's kneepads
Inventor: KIELLAND PETER JOHANN
IPC: E04D15/00
Filed: 2006-12-13
Abstract: The invention is a pair of multi-function kneepads adapted for use on inclined roofs.  Each kneepad is comprised of a wedge of expanded polystyrene or similar lightweight material capable of supporting the user's weight. The acute dihedral angle of each wedge is approximately equal to the pitch angle of the roof on which the kneepads are being used, thereby providing a substantially horizontal upper kneeling surface when the wedge is oriented towards the roof's peak. Each wedge's lower surface is typically affixed to a soft rubber pad that prevents premature abrasion of the polystyrene wedge and improves grip onto the roof's inclined surface. Each wedge's upper surface typically includes a soft foam layer that serves as an ergonomic kneeling pad for the user. An attachment harness secures the kneepads to the front of the worker's kneecaps and shins.  The attachment harness may also be configured for securing the kneepads to the soles of the user's feet, thereby improving comfort in the standing posture.

Patent CA-2577630-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GRAY DEREK G
IPC: D21H21/40
Filed: 2007-02-07
Abstract: Polymer composite films were prepared by solvent casting suspensions of quantum dots (QDs) in cellulose triacetate (CTA) solution. The films were robust and possessed the optical properties characteristic of QDs. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of the films revealed that the QDs were well dispersed within the CTA film matrix. The selective alkaline hydrolysis of QD/CTA films in 0.1 N NaOH over 24 hours resulted in the surface conversion of CTA to regenerated cellulose. Optical properties of the films were probed both before and after the hydrolysis reaction using fluorescence spectroscopy, and were found generally unaltered. The cellulose surfaces of the alkaline treated films allow for facile incorporation of the films into paper sheets.
