Patent EP-0615815-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CUNEO GIUSEPPE
IPC: B24B45/00
Filed: 1994-03-02
Abstract: A device (10) comprises a housing (12), a shaft (18) rotatably mounted in the housing (12), a sleeve (32) around the shaft (18), and a nut (45) for threaded engagement with an end (31) of the shaft (18) to define with the sleeve (32) a flange lock. Drive means (14, 16) rotates the shaft (18). The sleeve (32) is automatically prevented from rotating with the shaft (18) when the drive means (14, 16) is reversed, such that the nut (45) unscrews from the end (31) of the shaft (19) to release the flange lock. The sleeve (32) is automatically prevented from rotating with the shaft (18) by virtue of a ratchet plate (42) fixed to the housing (12).

Abstract: An ultrasonic method of inspecting repaired stub tubes in a boiling water reactor. The top and bottom ends of each stub tube (14) are respectively welded to the corresponding control rod drive housing (10) and to the bottom head (12) of the reactor pressure vessel. Under certain conditions, a crack (26) can form in the heat-affected zone of the stub tube adjacent to the upper weld (16), necessitating repair by installing a mechanical seal (20). A probe (24) inserted in the control rod drive housing has transducers (28a, 28b, 28c) which transmit pulsed ultrasonic energy toward a machined surface-air gap interface (30) disposed to reflect the pulse trains generally axially through the stub tube. The radial and azimuthal dimensions of a radial crack in the stub tube are determined in dependence on which pulsed trains are reflected back to the probe by the crack via the interface.

Abstract: A clamp nut 10 comprising a split threaded nut 12 for engaging a threaded spindle (not shown), a coiled spring 16 encircling the split nut 12, means 20 for holding the spring 16 tightly coiled around the split nut 12 and a cap 30, engaging the spring 16, which can be turned in a first direction (A) to tighten the spring 16 around the split nut 12 and in a reverse direction to release the holding means 20 thereby loosening the spring 16 around the split nut 12 and enabling the split nut 12 to expand radially to facilitate removal of the clamp nut 10 from a threaded spindle. The mechanism for releasing the holding means 20 preferably includes a cam surface 32, formed integrally with the cap 30, which lifts an end 19 of the coiled spring 16 off a set of ratchet teeth.

Abstract: A data converter (e.g., 10,90,92) for converting a signal from one form to another converts signals from analog form to digital form or from digital form to analog form. The converter has an analog side and a digital sample side. A programmable barrel shift selector (e.g., 34 or 80) on the digital sample side receives digital signal samples of a first bit field width and selects a second bit field width as the output. The second bit field width is programmable over a range to selectively determine which bits in the first bit field are included in the second bit field.

Abstract: A sailing craft having a hull (215) with a longitudinal midplane. A primary boom (210) is pivotally mounted on the hull (215) for 360° continuous rotation in either direction about a central vertical axis. The primary boom (210) is connected by lines (217, 218) to a sail boom (221). At least one angled mast (247) is mounted on the hull (215) and extends upwardly. The mast (217) has a top, the top is disposed approximately above the central vertical axis of the primary boom (210). A sail (230) is carried by the sail boom (221) and extends upwardly and substantially symmetrically about the central vertical axis. The sail (230) is supported from the top of the at least one mast (247). The sail boom (221) with the sail (230) thereon has completely free 360° rotation in either direction avoiding contact with the mast (247). The sail (230) has flake lines (249) swivelably connected to the top of the mast (247) permitting rotation of the sail (230) and flaking of the sail (230). A tension device maintains tension on the top of the halyard (243) so the sail (230) luff becomes tight when the primary boom (210) rotates either end forward.

Abstract: A hearing aid apparatus is disclosed that employs both an omnidirectional microphone and at least one directional microphone of at least the first order. The electrical signals output from the directional microphone are supplied to an equalization amplifier which at least partially equalizes the amplitude of the low frequency electrical signal components of the electrical signal with the amplitude of the mid and high frequency electrical signal components of the electrical signals of the directional microphone. A switching circuit accepts the signals output from both the omnidirectional microphone and the directional microphone. The switching circuit connects the signal from the omnidirectional microphone to an input of a hearing aid amplifier when the switching circuit is in a first switching state, and connects the output of the equalization circuit to the hearing aid amplifier input when the switching circuit is in a second switching state. The switching circuit may be automatically switched in response to sensed ambient noise levels.

Abstract: A negative birefringent film, useful in liquid crystal displays (2), and a method for controlling the negative birefringence of a polyimide film is disclosed which allows the matching of an application to a targeted amount of birefringence by controlling the degree of in-plane orientation of the polyimide by the selection of functional groups within both the diamine and dianhydride segments of the polyimide which affect the polyimide backbone chain rigidity, linearity, and symmetry. The higher the rigidity, linearity and symmetry of the polyimide backbone, the larger the value of the negative birefringence of the polyimide film.

IPC: H01M8/249
Filed: 1994-06-01
Abstract: In order to obtain a particularly simple structure for a high-temperature fuel cell installation (1) and a very low power requirement for the compressor (70) on the air side, according to the invention at least one high-temperature fuel cell stack (4 14) in a container (2) forms a gastight separator or a component thereof in the container (2) between an air inlet chamber (28) into which the air inlets from the high-temperature fuel cells open and an air outlet chamber (16) into which the air outlets from the hight-temperature fuel cell open. There is preferably at least one point in this separator at which the air (22) in the air outlet chamber (16) can be at least partially recirculated by means of the air (16) flowing into the air inlet chamber (16). Thus the compressor compresses cold, relatively dense air and the hot air (22) can be recirculated in the container (2) without the addition of moving parts. The invention is essentially applicable to all high-temperature fuel cell installations.
