Patent CA-2136601-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KINNUNEN JORMA
IPC: B65H19/28
Filed: 1994-11-24
Abstract: A method and device for reeling a paper or board web in a drum reel-up or equivalent, in which, when a paper or board reel formed on a reel spool situated in a reeling position becomes complete, a new reel spool is brought by transfer members into a stand-by position and accelerated up to the web speed.  The reel spool with the complete reel is transferred into an exchange position apart from the reel drum and the new, initially accelerated reel spool is transferred into the reeling position.  When the reel spool with its reel is transferred into the exchange position apart from the reel drum, the belt guide roll is transferred into nip-defining relationship with the complete reel that is being formed onto the reel spool and is displaced along with the reel spool into the exchange position so that the web runs during the entire exchange on support of the belt and through a nip between the guide roll and the reel spool.   The device includes a reel drum, a reel spool whereby the web runs through the nip between the reel drum and the reel spool onto the reel spool, a transfer device for bringing a new reel spool into nip-defining relationship with the reel drum after the paper or board reel on the first reel spool has become complete, and means for transferring the belt guide roll together with the reel spool into the exchange position so that, during the entire exchange, the web is supported on the belt and runs through the nip between the guide roll and the reel spool.

Title: Method and apparatus for the characterization and control of powder compaction
Inventor: LAINE ENSIO
IPC: G01N29/14
Filed: 1993-11-09
Abstract: The object of the invention is a method and device for characterizing the compaction result of a powder and monitoring the compaction act during the process. The sound emission produced by the process is measured by means of a sensor located in the vicinity of the process and transformed into a frequency spectrum in which the sound intensity is presented as a function of fre-quency. The intensity of the band relating to the sound emission arising from the compaction of the powder is recorded using compressive forces of differing magnitude, and the compaction result of the powder is obtained as a function of the intensity of the band relating to the sound emission arising from compaction. The method is useful both as a pilot method and as a process control method.

Title: Altitude measuring device
Inventor: MAEYAMA HACHIRO
IPC: G01C5/06
Filed: 1996-03-18
Abstract: In an altitude measuring device mounted on a movable body, the following process takes place.  Based on a timing signal output at every second, pressure data is obtained by a sensor (504).  Speed of the movable body is detected by a speed detecting portion (507).  If the speed is not 0, a correcting value Poffset is subtracted from pressure data Psensor obtained by the sensor (504) by means of CPU (501), and a corrected pressure data Padj is calculated.  Altitude value is calculated based on the corrected pressure data.  The calculated altitude value is displayed on a display.  Meanwhile, if the speed of the movable body is 0, the value obtained by subtracting corrected pressure data Padj from the measured pressure data Psensor is used as the correcting value Poffset.  Therefore, the altitude value displayed while the movable body is stopped does not change.

Title: Extracting oil from oil bearing plant parts
Inventor: HEBERT ROLAND M
IPC: B01D35/153
Filed: 1996-05-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for extracting oil from an oil bearing plant material with the use of a solvent suitable for dissolving the oil in the plant material. Grounded plant material is deposited into a reactor vessel, and vacuum is created in the reactor vessel. Liquid solvent is introduced into the reactor vessel and allowed to contact the plant material for a time sufficient to dissolve oil from the plant material, while the temperature in the reactor vessel is maintained at a level which prevents denaturing of constituent components of the plant oil and the plant material. Additional solvent vapors are introduced into the bottom of the reactor to causemixing of the plant material and the solvent and separate fine particulate matter from heavier particles. Pressurized heated solvent vapors are introduced into the top of the reactor vessel while the liquid solvent and oil combination is being removed from the bottom of the reactor vessel through filters. To prevent clogging of filters in the bottom of the reactor vessel pressurized solvent vapors are forced through the filters into the bottom of the reactor vessel. The solvent and oil combination is transferred into a separator vessel, wherein the solvent is vaporized and removed for recycling, while the oil is removed into a holding tank.
