Abstract: A printer including a first and second recorder (38,54). The first recorder (38) is for printing a first set of data on a document (18), such as a receipt document. The second (piggyback) recorder (54) is detachably mounted piggyback onto the first recorder, thereby providing a second recorder to the terminal for printing a second set of data on the document. The piggyback recorder (54) comprises a piggyback print member (58) which is capable of printing the second set of data, a mounting member (60) for mounting the piggyback print member directly onto a first print member of the first recorder, a piggyback platen (76), a second mounting member (78) for mounting the piggyback platen directly onto a first platen (44) of the piggyback recorder, and a solenoid (102) for providing relative movement between the piggyback print member and the piggyback platen. After the piggyback recorder is mounted on the first recorder, the controller (14) can energize the solenoid to cause the piggyback platen (76) to impact the piggyback print member (58), thereby effecting the printing of the second set of data on the document when the document is located in a printing position between the piggyback print member and piggyback platen.

Abstract: A laser apparatus with preionization comprises: a laser medium; main electrodes (3,3a) for produce a glow discharge therebetween; an optical resonator; a first capacitor (1) for storing a first charge used for production of the glow discharge; a preionizing circuit including a spark gap (2) and a second capacitor (13) connected to the spark gap in series for illuminating the laser medium around the electrodes with sparks developed between the spark gap in response to charging of the second capacitor through the spark gap with a second charge, the preionizing circuit being connected to the first capacitor in parallel; and a charging circuit responsive to a control signal for charging the first and second capacitors with the first and second charges received from a high voltage source. The second capacitor is provided only for discharging, thus the current flows in the spark gap is reduced, so that wear of the spark gap is reduced. Inductance associated with glow discharge is reduced because the spark gap is removed from the discharge circuit including the first capacitor, so that the discharge glow starts rapidly. A coil may be inserted in the preionizing circuit in series to control a current flowing therein.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for providing validated labels that are attached to mail trays 36 immediately upon mail being processed by a mailer and placed in a tray. Mail lists and programs for sanitizing the mail list and sorting the mail to achieve postal discounts are stored in a mailer's processor 18, 20. A printer 22 is controlled to print addresses on documents, such as letters, that are forwarded to an inserter. A mail list stored in the processor indicates where the mail is to be sent, the class of mail, level of sortation and the contents of the mail. Tray contents are computed and appropriate labels are prepared by a label printer 34 under its control. By making the tray label print an integral part of the mail processing system, as opposed to being an adjunct to it, the providing of labels becomes more efficient, reliable and economical.

Abstract: A hydrocarbon derivative is produced by the vapour phase reaction of a hydrocarbon with substantially pure oxygen in the presence of a suitable catalyst in a reactor 2. The product is removed in a scrubber 8, carbon monoxide, present in the reactor effluent as a by-product, is oxidised to carbon dioxide in a converter 16 and part of the gaseous effluent, comprising mainly carbon dioxide and unreacted hydrocarbon, is recycled to the reactor 2. Removal of carbon monoxide from the recycle stream reduces the hazard of a fire or explosion in the reactor or associated equipment. The use of carbon dioxide as the principal diluent increases heat removal from the reactor, thereby increasing the production capacity of the reactor. If the hydrocarbon is benzene or a straight chain C₄ hydrocarbon, e.g. butane, the product is maleic anhydride. If the hydrocarbon is o-xylene the product is phthalic anhydride. Other derivatives such as acetaldehyde, acrolein, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, acrylic acid, vinyl chloride, and propylene oxide may alternatively be produced by appropriate selection of reactants and catalysts.

Abstract: Emissions of nitrous oxide (N 2 0) are lowered in a fluidized bed reactor utilizing two-staged combustion. A lower region of the furnace section is operated under substoichiometric conditions so that combustion in the lower region is incomplete, thereby inhibiting formation of N 2 0 and nitrogen oxides (NO. An upper region of the furnace section is operated under oxidizing conditions to promote further combustion. An amount of particulate material is present in the upper region, and this amount of particulate material in the upper region is controlled to maintain a temperature in the upper region for destroying N 2 0 formed during combustion. The amount of particulate material present in the upper region may in turn be controlled by controlling the particulate material entrained from the lower region to the upper region. The temperature is also preferably controlled within a range to permit sulfur capture by sorbent particles so that emissions of N 2 0, NO x , and oxides of sulfur (SO x ) may be simultaneously lowered.
