Filed: 1993-12-15
Abstract: An improved process for deoxygenating non-cryogenically produced nitrogen with a hydrocarbon is disclosed. According to the process, non-cryogenically produced nitrogen stream containing residual oxygen impurity is 1) pre-heated, 2) mixed with a hydrocarbon, and 3) passed through a reactor packed with a platinum group of metal catalyst to reduce oxygen to very low levels by converting it to a mixture of carbon dioxide and moisture. The reactor effluent stream is optionally treated downstream to produce a nitrogen stream substantially free of moisture and carbon dioxide. The key features of the disclosed process include 1) pre-heating non-cryogenically produced nitrogen containing residual oxygen to a certain minimum temperature, 2) adding more than stoichiometric amount of a hydrocarbon to the pre-heated nitrogen stream, and 3) using a platinum group of metal catalyst to initiate and sustain the reaction between oxygen and hydrocarbon.

Title: Apparatus for Loading Flexible Tubing with Bales
Inventor: PRONOVOST NORMAND
IPC: A01F25/14
Filed: 1993-12-15
Abstract: Bales of hay or the like vegetable material are successively loaded on the frame of a wheeled vehicle and actuate a trip plate which causes a pusher plate to push the bale into the open ended portion of a long plastic flexible tube held folded on an arch-shaped upstanding holding device secured to the rear end of the vehicle.   The bales loaded within the tube successively drop off the vehicle on the ground and react to the backward thrust exerted by the pusher plate on the next bale to cause forward movement of the vehicle.   The vehicle carries its own power supply and is therefore entirely autonomous.  The vehicle has a skid plate and the wheels can be raised so that the vehicle moves on the skid plae to thereby increase resistance to the vehicle forward movement thereby increasing the compaction of the bales  within  the  tube.    The  holding  device  includes  a plurality of tube retaining hook members which are carried by an arch-shaped frame for outward diverging linear movement so as to open the tube.  The tube, which is preferably of the stretchable type,  is stretched by the hook members in a uniform way all around the tube circumference with a minimum of friction on the individual hook members.  The apparatus can handle bales and tubings of various diameters.

IPC: F24F1/00
Filed: 1994-02-07
Abstract: IMPELLER FOR TRANSVERSE FAN                       ABSTRACT A transverse fan impeller (30) having at least two modules (32).  Each module is defined by an adjacent pair of partition disks (34) each perpendicularly centered on the rotational axis of the impeller.  Blades (31) extend longitudinally between pairs of partition disks.  The angular spacing of blades in a module is nonuniform but also not random, being determined by application of cer-tain formulae disclosed.  The angular blade spacing with-in each module of the impeller is the same, but the mod-ules are angularly offset so that a blade in one module is offset from the corresponding blade in an adjacent module by a predetermined value.  The module and blade configurations reduce both the blade rate tonal noise and overall radiated noise produced as compared to an impel-ler having uniformly spaced blades.

Title: User-Level Backup File System
Inventor: FOWLER GLENN S
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1994-05-24
Abstract: A backup file system which can be used without modification of application programs, the operating system, or the hardware. The backup file system is implemented by means of a dynamically-linkable replacement library and user-level processes on a primary computer system and a backup computer system. The dynamically-linkable replacement library has the same interfaces as a standard dynamically-linkable library of file operations. The functions in the replacement library perform the same file operations as their counterparts in the standard library; in addition they send messages specifying the just-performed operation to a user-level process on the backup computer system. The user-level process executes the operation specified in the message on a backup file in the backup computer system. The files to be backed up are specified by identifying subtrees in the namespace of the primary file system; the subtrees make up a user-defined namespace. The backup file system is made fault tolerant by the use of monitor processes which monitor the backup computer system and the processes of the backup file system and deal withfailures as required to keep the backup file system operating.

Abstract: A magnetooptical recording medium includes a reproduction layer, a first recording layer and a second recording layer. The reproduction layer is a perpendicular magnetic film in both a state of room temperature and a state of temperature rise. In the first and second recording layers, sub lattice magnetic moments of the same kinds of elements constituting the first and second recording layers are oriented in opposite directions. In reproducing operation, an initialization magnetic field is applied to a portion of the recording medium other than a light beam irradiated portion. A direction of magnetization of the reproduction layer is oriented in a stable direction with respect to magnetization of the first recording layer by an exchange coupling effect in a region at a temperature not less than a middle temperature in the irradiated portion. The direction of magnetization of the reproduction laye22r is oriented in a direction of the initialization magnetic field in a low-temperature region. Reproduction of information is effected by detecting a magnetooptical change in light reflected by the recording medium.

Inventor: SARTY GORDON E
IPC: G01R33/56
Filed: 1995-04-21
Abstract: A method and an apparatus are used in magnetic resonance imaging. In generating the resonance signals, the magnetic gradient fields are varied to represent a scan on a non-linear, continuously varying curve. One specific example given is a multi-leafed rose. New mathematical treatments of the resultant signal are presented, which are used to define a novel method for the reconstruction of an image from these signals based on k-plane coordinates naturally associated with the signal acquisition. The superior image quality that the new reconstruction method gives means that non-linear, continuously varying acquisition in k-space may be used so that magnetic field switching and high cost hardware is not required, while signal acquisition times are significantly reduced.

Patent CA-2151532-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HORST GARY E
IPC: H02P1/46
Filed: 1995-06-12
Abstract: A dynamo-electric machine such as a switched reluctance motor (10) having an auxiliary starting capability is disclosed.  A stator (14) has a central bore (16) and a plurality of inwardly salient poles (18A-18D) extending into the bore.  A rotor (22) is mounted on a shaft (24) for rotation relative to the stator.          The rotor has a plurality of outwardly salient poles (26A, 26B) extending into the bore.  Stator windings (20, 21) are bifilar windings which produce an electro-magnetic field when a phase is energized.  The bifilar windings return energy to the voltage source when the phase is de-energized.  An auxiliary winding (28) is also installed on the stator.  The auxiliary winding is energized, when the machine is off, to produce a magnetic field which causes rotation of the rotor to a preferred aligned position relative to the stator poles.  This facilitates subsequent starting of the machine.  An electrical circuit (30) energizes the auxiliary winding, when the machine is off; and then energizes the stator windings when the machine is started.  The circuit de-energizes the auxiliary winding when the stator windings are energized.  The auxiliary windings are also effective when used with motors having a stepped air gap (G) between the stator poles and rotor poles, or when the stator has a shifted pole configuration.
