Title: Process and apparatus for improving the distribution on a receiving element of fibres carried by a gas current
Inventor: BATTIGELLI JEAN
IPC: C03B37/04
Filed: 1982-07-27
Abstract: The invention relates to the distribution on a receiving device of fibers carried by a gas current. To improve the distribution, the gas current carrying the fibers is subjected to the action of a gas layer which envelopes the current and of which the direction of flow in a plane tangent to the gas current differs from that of the gas current. The action of the gas layer results in an expansion of the current carrying the fibers. The invention is particularly useful where the fibers are received on a collecting device such as a foraminous conveyor belt, of large width.

Title: The combustion and utilisation of fuel gases
Inventor: CUMMINGS DONALD RAY
IPC: F23K5/00
Filed: 1995-10-27
Abstract: A gas turbine system for utilizing waste fuel gas is described that includes a combustor that provides combusted fuel to the expansion stage of the turbine. The fuel gas entering the combustor by an inlet pipeline is a compressed admixture with air of a concentration below the lower explosive limit. The fuel gas/air admixture passes within a tube to pass to the combustion zone where combustion occurs only by reaction/self-combustion. The combusted gas passes by a tortuous path provided by an arrangement of baffles to the outlet duct. The exhausting combusted gas passes over the outer surface of the tube and gives up preheating heat to the inlet gas therein.

Title: Protection in mixed optical WDM systems
Inventor: OEBERG MAGNUS
IPC: H04B10/032
Filed: 2000-12-28
Granted: 2004-05-05
Abstract: Devices (13.1, 31.1) communicate with each other on a wavelength channel using wavelength specific signals on a working WDM fiber (21) having a parallel protection WDM fiber (23). An SDH system (13.S, 31.S) uses one channel of the WDM system of the fibers as one of the fibres of the working pair of the SDH system and has a separate fibre (37) constituting that fibre of the protecting fibre pair for the SDH-system. To provide an unambiguous or predictable protection behaviour for the SDH system for the working WDM fibre being cut the RETs (29.1, ..., 29.S) have two modes. In the first mode a RET will be on and always carry traffic when the input power is high enough. In the second mode a RET they will not automatically turn on again after it has firstly lost the input signal and thereupon the input signal has returned. The RET can then be manually restarted or restarted after some suitable delay. Then the sequence of events will always be unambiguously defined. For a fibre break on the working WDM fibre, the RET will loose the input signal, turn off, and will not immediately turn on again. Thereby there will always be enough time for the SDH protection scheme to be carried out. The SDH-system will thus automatically have a working protection path, i.e. the now working, former WDM protection fibre. <IMAGE>

Title: Continuous casting of reactionary metals using a glass covering
Inventor: JACQUES MICHAEL P
IPC: B22D11/10
Filed: 2005-10-14
Granted: 2009-11-11
Abstract: A seal for a continuous casting furnace having a melting chamber with a mold therein for producing a metal cast includes a passage between the melting chamber and external atmosphere. As the cast moves through the passage, the cast outer surface and the passage inner surface define therebetween a reservoir for containing liquid glass or other molten material to prevent the external atmosphere from entering the melting chamber. Particulate material fed into the reservoir is melted by heat from the cast to form the molten material. The molten material coats the cast as it moves through the passage and solidifies to form a coating to protect the hot cast from reacting with the external atmosphere. Preferably, the mold has an inner surface with a cross-sectional shape to define a cross-sectional shape of the cast outer surface whereby these cross-sectional shapes are substantially the same as a cross-sectional shape of the passage inner surface.

Filed: 1978-07-06
Granted: 1982-02-10
Abstract: To regulate the threshold voltage of insulated-gate field-effect transistors (IGFETs) in an integrated circuit, such as that of an electronic wristwatch, capacitors and other IGFETs of the same conductivity type as those of the controlled circuit are incorporated in the substrate thereof to form a regulating transistor, a constant-current generator and one or more voltage multipliers. The current generator and the main electrodes (source and drain) of the regulating transistor, whose gate is tied to its source, are connected in series across a generator of reference voltage constituted by one or more such multipliers. One of the main electrodes of the regulating transistor is connected, directly or through a further voltage multiplier, to the reference terminal (O) of the controlled circuit while still another such multiplier may be inserted between the ouptut of the constant-current generator and the interconnected source and gate electrodes of the regulating transistor. The current generator may comprise a storage capacitor periodically charged through a first IGFET (T1) in the presence of the leading edge of an applied pulse, such as a half-cycle of a square wave, and discharged through a second IGFET (T2) on the trailing edge thereof.

Filed: 1978-07-18
Granted: 1982-02-10
Abstract: A lock for vertically moving doors is operable from either side with a key and, when the lock cylinder is in one orientation, manually from one side. A pin 13 on the lock cylinder engages with a cut out segment 12 of a driving member which drives locking bars 4, 5. The lock cylinder is mounted on a fascia plate and a rear plate, carries the driving member and the locking bars from the position shown in Figure 6 the bars may be extended to the locking position by using a key from either side to rotate the cylinder pin 13 clockwise. From the position also the driving member may be rotated manually from the inside because of the groove 12, but such rotation is not possible when the cylinder is in the position shown in Figure 8. Alternatively the pin 13 may be engaged in groove 16 so that a key must always be used. <IMAGE>

Title: Blood fractionation
IPC: A61K35/16
Filed: 1982-03-25
Granted: 1984-05-10
Abstract: The extraction of Factor VIII, the antihaemophilic factor in blood, is difficult due to its instability and the presence of impurities. An initial Factor VIII containing aqueous solution such as blood plasma is purified by subjecting a FactorVIII containing aqueous migrant solution to continuous flow electrophoresis wherein flow takes place in an annular separation chamber and is stabilised by means of an angular velocity gradient; and collecting a separated Factor VIII component.In order to separate the Factor VIII from albumin and fibrinogen, whilst obtaining good recoveries of FactorVIII (e.g. -60%), the migrant solution is prepared by precipitating FactorVIII from the initial solution using an organic liquid such as ethanol, and removing and redissolving the precipitate in an aqueous medium and adjusting the pH to be within the range of 7.5 to 8.6, preferably 8.3 to 8.6.

Title: Moulding graphitized sealing gasket
Inventor: BATE CECIL ALBERT
IPC: B28B3/06
Filed: 1983-09-03
Granted: 1986-12-31
Abstract: A method of making a gasket by pressing particles of expanded graphite in a mould onto the opposed faces of an apertured reinforcement plate to compact the particles and unite them with the plate makes use of a mould assembly comprising a base plate, first and second moulding rings, and a moulding punch which is apertured to conform with the apertures of the reinforcement plate. The first and second moulding rings are positionable above the base plate to form lower and upper mould recesses, into which expanded graphite is successively charged, so enclosing the apertured reinforcement plate. The punch is then operated to compact the graphite particles and unite them with the reinforcement plate. Compaction in the mould assembly can produce either the finished gasket or at least a composite whose graphite layers are firm enough to be handled outside the mould assembly to permit further compaction. The method is specially applicable to the manufacture of cylinder head gaskets for internal combustion engines.
