Patent EP-0853811-A1 (EP)
Title: Enceinte d'appareillage electrique resistant a l'arc
Inventor: AUFERMANN ALBERT H
IPC: H02B13/025
Filed: 1996-09-06
Abstract: Cette enceinte perfectionnée pour appareillage électrique, résistant à l'arc, constitue une structure peu coûteuse de recueillir et de canaliser la pression et les gaz d'échappement chauds à travers ladite enceinte. Dans des modes de réalisation préférés, on obtient une chambre à arc interne (30') grâce à l'assemblage de modules et à la création d'un vide au centre de l'enceinte. La connexion des compartiments ou modules (10, 12', 14, 24) multiples destinés à former l'enceinte conduit à la création d'une chambre à arc à l'intérieur de ladite enceinte. Au moment de l'amorçage d'un arc de court-circuit dans un compartiment particulier, un volet (40, 42) ou couvercle (42) de sécurité, appartenant à ce compartiment particulier, s'ouvre de manière à canaliser la pression et les gaz dans la chambre à arc interne ou directement à travers le sommet de l'enceinte (100). Les pressions et les gaz dégagés dans ladite chambre à arc s'écoulent à l'horizontale à travers cette dernière jusqu'à ce qu'ils atteignent un chemin menant vers le sommet de l'enceinte. Ils sont alors dirigés vers le haut pour être déchargés de manière sûre hors de l'enceinte. L'invention se rapporte également à un système de ventilation pour une enceinte pour appareillage électrique résistant à l'arc qui assure une ventilation naturelle tout en empêchant l'entrée de tout gaz d'arc dans le ou les compartiments ventilés inférieurs, et qui permet la mise à l'air libre appropriée des gaz d'arc sous pression s'ils proviennent du ou des compartiments ventilés inférieurs.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/SE96/01045 Sec. 371 Date May 5, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 5, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 23, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/09120 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 13, 1997Conical separation discs of thin sheet metal intended for centrifugal separators have, as a rule, spacing members in the form of thin strips welded onto one of their sides. For avoiding local overheating of a separation disc, when a strip is to be welded onto the separation disc by roll welding, the strip is formed with at least one ridge extending in the longitudinal direction of the strip, the width of the ridge being substantially smaller than that of the strip. In this way, the contact area between the strip and the separation disc will become very small in the welding area, and only a limited amount of energy is needed for the welding.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for improving the accuracy of
temperature sensitive diagnostic assays which are carried
out using reflectance spectrometers to detect color
changes in a solid test system which has been contacted
with a fluid test system suspected of containing an analyte
whose presence and/or concentration is being sought.
The improvement involves determining the temperature of
the solid test material by measuring the reflectance of a
thermochromic liquid crystal in close proximity to the
solid test material and correcting the result of the assay
for a change in temperature from a pre-selected nominal
temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a laser oscillator containing at least one pair of main electrodes (12, 13) within a laser tube (2). In accordance with a first aspect of the invention, a downstream one (13) of the main electrodes provided within the laser tube (2) which is located downstream, as viewed in the direction of flow of a laser gas, is substantially L-shaped, with its distal end (13b) being supported to extend in a direction to intersect with the axial direction of the laser tube (2). This improves the oscillation efficiency in exciting the laser radiation as compared with the prior art. 
     According to the second aspect of the invention, a pair of ring-shaped pre-ionization electrodes (221) are disposed upstream of the main electrodes (212, 213) and there is provided a pre-ionization power supply (222) which applies a high voltage, which may be a pulse wave or an alternating voltage, across the pair of pre-ionization electrodes (221). The provision of the pair of pre-ionization electrodes enables a uniform pre-ionization, thus allowing a stabilised main discharge to be achieved across the main electrodes.

Abstract: An elevator car door operating system includes a positioning and synchronization system (30) for ensuring simultaneous opening and closing of elevator car doors (12,14), a stationary motor secondary (22), a pair of moving motor primaries (24) driving the respective doors, and a single motor drive (78) for driving both motor primaries. The motor drive generates proper current and frequency to supply to both motor primaries. Since movement of both elevator car doors is synchronized and therefore requires substantially identical force at a given time, a single motor drive can be used to generate current for driving both doors.

Abstract: A method of treating waste materials such as city sewage or animal
manure which may contain toxic chemicals includes supplying the waste
materials in slurry form using a dispensing machine in the field to a fibrous crop
material so that the waste materials, water and toxic chemicals are taken up by
the fibrous materials in the plant to avoid toxic materials collecting in the soil.
The amount of phosphorous in the manure is measured at the spreading vehicle
by measuring the density of the manure and the level of nitrogen is measured at
the spreading vehicle by measuring NH4 content. The volume of materials
supplied to the field is controlled dependent upon the phosphorous level so as to
avoid applying a level of phosphorous greater than permitted. The amount of
nitrogen can be supplemented at the vehicle from a separate tank.

Dans ces circonstances, la production du puits est coupée pour donner au gisement le temps de remonter en pression et au fluide d'atteindre un niveau suffisant pour qu'il soit possible de recommencer l'opération d'extraction.
