Patent PL-223751-A1 (PL)
Inventor: SCHLEIMER FRANCOIS
IPC: C21C5/32
Filed: 1980-04-25
Abstract: A process for refining a metal bath in a converter by oxygen blowing, particularly a molten metal liquid bath containing cold, solid substances, notably of scrap. Oxygen is distributed over the surface of the bath, so that there will be an after-combustion of CO released in the course of decarbonization. The thickness and consistency of a slag layer formed over the bath is actively regulated by injecting a rising inert gas through the bottom of the bath. The flow of rising gas may be regulated depending upon the oxygen content in the fumes of the converter, or upon the intensity of emission through the top of an oxygen blowing lance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to elastomeric copolymers of propylene with ethylene and/or 1-butene and optionally with at least one C5-12 alpha-olefin, and to a process for manufacturing them in gas phase. The process employs a catalyst obtained by contacting a support successively with an electron-donor containing labile hydrogen D2 and with an electron-donor D3 chosen from aromatic carboxylic esters, and then by impregnating and activating the support by two successive contactings with titanium tetrachloride, the said support consisting of 80 to 99 mol% of magnesium dichloride and of 1 to 20 mol% of an organic electron-donor D1 free from labile hydrogen. The process comprises a stage of prepolymerisation by contacting the catalyst with at least one C2-12 alpha-olefin, an external electron-donor D4 and a cocatalyst (A).

Title: Method of associativelly parallel data processing and data processing system therefor
Inventor: DIEFFENDERFER JAMES WARREN
IPC: G06F9/318
Filed: 1991-11-13
Abstract: Multiprocessor parallel computing systems and a byte serial SIMD processor parallel architecture is used for parallel array processing with a simplified architecture adaptable to chip implementation in an air cooled environment. The array provided is an N dimensional array of byte wide processing units each coupled with an adequate segment of byte wide memory and control logic. A partitionable section of the array containing several processing units are contained on a silicon chip arranged with "Picket"s, an element of the processing array preferably consisting of combined processing element with a local memory for processing bit parallel bytes of information in a clock cycle. A Picket Processor system (or Subsystem) comprises an array of pickets, a communication network, an I/O system, and a SIMD controller consisting of a microprocessor, a canned routine processor, and a microcontroller that runs the array. The Picket Architecture for SIMD includes set associative processing, parallel numerically intensive processing, with physical array processing similar to image processing. a military picket line analogy fits quite well. Pickets, having a bit parallel processing element, with local memory coupled to the processing element for the parallel processing of information in an associative way where each picket is adapted to perform one element of the associative process. We have provided a way for horizontal association with each picket. The memory of the picket units is arranged in an array. The array of pickets thus arranged comprises a set associative memory. The set associative parallel processing system on a single chip permits a smaller set of `data' out of a larger set to be brought out of memory where an associative operation can be performed on it. This associative operation, typically an exact compare, is performed on the whole set of data in parallel, utilizing the Picket's memory and execution unit. <IMAGE>

Title: Fifth wheel coupling
Inventor: TIMMINGS NEIL
IPC: B62D53/10
Filed: 2000-09-25
Abstract: A manually actuable release arm of a fifth wheel coupling is engagable with a plate in a first position wherein the locking member is retracted to allow release (or entry) of a king pin and in a second position wherein the member is projected to hold a locking jaw in its king pin locking position. This may be accomplished by respective engagement of detents in the release arm with the edge of an aperture in the plate flange. To assist release of the king pin, a piston of a fluid actuable piston and cylinder arrangement (38, 39) is connected to the release arm and can be operated to move the release arm against the bias of spring to its first (release) position. In this respect, a plunger on the release arm may be used to actuate a switch which operates the piston.

Title: Textile implant made of monofil threads from polyvinyl fluoride
Inventor: KLINGE UWE
IPC: A61B3/103
Filed: 2002-06-25
Abstract: In surgery, mesh-shaped implants, so-called meshes, are used for supporting damaged body parts that are to be closed. These usually consist of multifilament polymers, more specifically of polyester and polypropylene. Post-surgery complications are frequent, though. The implant also becomes encapsulated as a foreign body within the tissue. In order to enhance the tolerability of a used implant it is proposed that the implant comprises monofilament threads of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) or of a PVDF derivative.
