Title: Variable ratio drive system
IPC: B62M9/04
Filed: 1991-01-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a variable ratio drive mechanism which operates to adjust the path of an endless drive belt (34) in response to a remotely located control input. Circumferentially spaced sheave segments (32) include multiple camming surfaces (76) opposed engagement blocks (52, 54) and tooth-like formations (46). The engagement blocks (52, 54) are slidably spring-biased (60) with the tooth-like formations (46) to detent the sheave segment (32) against radial movement. Each sheave segment (32) is engaged by the drive belt (34) through a predetermined arc of rotation. When a sheave segment (32) is moved radially, the camming surfaces (76, 78) slide along follower surfaces (80, 82) until the engagement blocks (56, 58) are disengaged from the tooth-like formations and move up one or more notches. Oppositely disposed mating teeth (46) lock against radially inward forces. The drive belt (34) may include a urethane friction member (34B) with an integral strength member (34A) composed of arimid fiber or equivalent material.

Title: Device for monitoring collapse of natural ground in underground excavator.
Inventor: SHIBATANI KANJI
IPC: E21D9/087
Filed: 1993-07-16
Abstract: A device for accurately monitoring a collapsed portion when an underground excavator advances. Three or more combinations different from one another of a pair of conductive electrodes and a pair of detecting electrodes out of electrodes (1-8) are successively selected, and, for every combination, an electric power (17) and a voltmeter (16) are successively and switchingly connected. A specific resistance of a collapsed portion (24) is calculated for every combination on the basis of a detected voltage for each selected combination. A specific resistance for every combination as calculated above and the distance between selected conductive electrodes for every combination are successively substituted into an operational expression showing the interrelations between the calculated value of a specific resistance, the distance between selected conductive electrodes, a real specific resistance of the collapsed portion (24) in muddy water, a real specific resistance in the natural ground (22) of the collapsed portion (24) and the depth of muddy water, so that three or more expressions can be obtained. The depth of muddy water is calculated on the basis of these three or more expressions. As described above, the value of a real specific resistance is not a known one, but regarded as an unknown one, whereby the depth of muddy water is calculated. Therefore, even if the real specific resistance of the collapsed portion (24) is changed with the progress of excavation, the change can be accommodated and the depth of muddy water can be constantly and accurately calculated.

Title: Process and apparatus for enhancing distribution of no x?-reducing chemicals in a high-solids environment
Inventor: COMPARATO JOSEPH R
IPC: B01D53/56
Filed: 1994-05-09
Abstract: Reduction of nitrogen oxides emissions from large scale combustors, such as coal-fired boilers and incinerators which produce effluents with high solids concentrations, is improved. High solids loading and other operational factors can cause such large temperature gradients transverse to the direction of effluent flow the SNCR cannot be practiced in conventional fashion. The process entails defining a near-wall zone having a temperature effective for SNCR and a central zone where the temperature is too high. NOx-reducing composition is introduced into the effluent within the near-wall zone in fine droplets (30 and 130) and can be introduced into the central zone after the gas has cooled or as large droplets effective to survive the high temperature.

Inventor: BAUER CARL J
IPC: C09D7/61
Filed: 1996-09-27
Abstract: On constate que des niveaux inhabituellement élevés de charge en minéraux, les smectites, donnent un excellent espacement des pigments dans des revêtement aqueux, ce qui permet d'améliorer leur pouvoir couvrant et donc d'allonger ces pigments. Le niveau des smectites retenu est assez élevé pour que les smectites à haute efficacité soient inappropriées, car elles donneraient des viscosités si élevées qu'une composition de revêtement aqueux présenterait des caractéristiques d'écoulement insuffisantes. On décrit donc un mélange d'un milieu aqueux et d'un pigment avec au moins 0,5 % du poids de la composition totale d'une smectite particulaire gonflable à l'eau, à efficacité de gélification telle qu'elle présente une viscosité Brookfield à 20 t/m de moins de 900 cps lorsqu'on la soumet au test de gélification normalisé indiqué dans la description, la quantité de smectites de cette composition n'excédant pas celle qui en élèverait la viscosité au-dessus de 110 unités Krebs.
