Patent EP-0245149-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GEROME BRUNO
IPC: A01G27/00
Filed: 1987-04-24
Abstract: The valve (7) control closes it when the water level in a distribution tank (9) attains a predetermined level and opens it after a predetermined time to distribute tank water to a lower distribution reservoir (4). The valve control has a ramp pivot mounted about a horizontal axis (22) near an intermediate reservoir (3) base. A valve control rod (27) extends between the valve moving part (8) and the corresponding ramp end and a recall device (23) pivots the ramp upwards to open the valve. When the tank water level attains a predetermined value a distributor (18,19) allows water flow from the tank onto the ramp and a sponge (24).

Date Mar. 24, 1988.A method for the rapid and sensitive analysis of heavy metal ores, especially those of gold and uranium, uses high-engery X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. The invention is of particular interest for the measurement of samples from gold or bodies which typically have concentrations up to 10 ppm by mass. Preferred features include the use of an X-ray tube as a source, the counting of emitted fluorescence photons in energy bands selected to correlate with the characteristic x-ray fluorescence emissions of elements of interest, the excitement of the ore sample by irradiation with high energy bremsstrahlung radiation filtered through tin, the exploitation of polarization in analysis for uranium, the interposition of a platinum-group metal filter between the sample and the detector, and the use of high-purity germanium detectors. Techniques are described for the detection and elimination of inaccuracies due to the presence of certain interfering metals and correction for variations in sample density. Apparatus for use in the method of the invention is also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: In this clock (11) an energy storage device (25) charged with energy derived from ambient irradiation - preferably by solar cells (26) - is used as the operating power supply. The storage capacity can be made relatively small if all parts providing optional functions, such as additional functions not essential for the time-keeping function (especially those which are in any case hardly effective in the dark or could even be a nuisance) are temporarily disabled until, as the irradiation again increases, there is again an adequate reserve of energy for all functional parts. If, in fact, the drive for one of the time-indicating hands (17) is switched off when the energy reserve is low, it is advisable prior to this to move the hand concerned to an angular position which indicates that it is temporarily out of action. Switching off can be arranged by means of either radiation-controlled and/or voltage-controlled disconnecting switches (29); or, in addition to the main storage device (25) used for functions critical to the time-keeping function of the clock (11), a supplementary storage device (25) of very low capacity which does not place a load on the main storage device can be charged from the radiation generator (solar cell 26) to operate the optional additional functions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The fireproof identification plate possesses a symbol support (6) of highly heat-resistant stainless steel plate. The symbol support (6) has one or more symbols in the form of recesses (14) which are masked by a material (15) of contrasting colour on the side remote from the observer, or are filled in with such a material. The symbols are thus easily identifiable but remain legible even after a fire, when the contrasting material is burned away. Identification plates according to the invention are advantageously used in industrial plants, particularly refineries, and in the chemical industry, when it is required that the identification plates in question must also remain legible during a fire or after a fire. A further example of application is as a hazard plate for transport vehicles, for example road tankers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Safety contact edge for power-operated systems, such as roll-up doors, roll-up lattices, etc and lifting stages, work platforms and the like, and for the safeguarding of machines or spaces, for example as an entry prevention means, with a hollow rubber section (1), within which a rib (5) resembling a knife edge is provided, the surface of the rib and the countersurface of the hollow rubber section being electrically conductive, and the mutual contact of the surfaces resulting in a switch pulse. The conductivity of the hollow rubber section necessary for this obtained by making the rib (5) and the predominant part of the hollow rubber section (1) completely electrically conductive, the conductivity occurring as a result of the admixture of conductive substances, such as soot, graphite, metal powder and the like. At the same time, the rib and the predominant part of the hollow rubber section are insulated from one another by providing conventional non-conductive rubber between these parts. The conductivity in the rib or the predominant part of the hollow rubber section (1) can be increased by means of electrically conductive wires (6) made of metal, carbon or graphite fibres and the like.
