Abstract: A conductivity detector detects the electrical conductivity of a fluid under analysis for determining chemical or physical properties of the fluid that are related its electrical properties. Such conductivity detectors may find use in, for example, hemodialysis systems for analyzing the effectiveness of the hemodialysis treatment. In an aspect, to improve accuracy of the conductivity measurements, the detector utilizes four-wire resistance measurement methods. In another aspect, to avoid fouling or contamination of the electrodes, the detector utilizes capacitively-coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) methods so that the electrodes are physically unconnected to the fluid contained in a fluid chamber. In a possible further aspect, the fluid chamber may be a disposable component removable from the electrodes. The conductivity detector can include other features such as calibration circuits and features for electrically isolating the fluid under detection from the fluid in the rest of the system.

Title: Process for cooling hot bulk material and cooler
Inventor: ELORANTA JARMO
IPC: F27D15/02
Filed: 2011-12-13
Granted: 2019-07-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a cooler for cooling hot bulk material, in which cooling gas flows approximately transversely to the conveying direction through a bulk material bed and in the process takes up the heat of the bulk material, wherein an apparatus which carries the bulk material bed has a ventilation floor through which cooling gas flows, and wherein the conveying principle provides for planks which extend in the conveying direction, in which at least two adjacent planks are moved simultaneously in the conveying direction and non-simultaneously counter to the conveying direction. According to the invention, it is provided that the planks have differently configured surfaces, on which the bulk material bed lies, in the conveying direction, and these surfaces, on account of their different frictional locking with the bulk material bed lying thereon, lead to mean transport speeds which differ from one another, such that as a result the bulk material bed is stretched in the region of quicker conveying and compressed in the region of slower conveying. The apparatus tumbles the bulk material to be cooled with vertical mixing, as a result of which heat is recuperated more efficiently. Drawing: Figure 1

Abstract: A continuous system for manufacturing a composition that contains an active ingredient that includes a base manufacturing portion and an addition portion. The system can manufacture compositions having different levels of the active ingredient. A base is formed that contains a first level of the active ingredient that is desired for any composition to be manufactured. The addition portion can be used to add more of the materials for the composition to lower the level of the active ingredient, or more active ingredient can be added to increase the level of the active ingredient. The system is controlled by a sensor that measures an amount of associated material that is associated with the active ingredient. This is useful when the active ingredient is not detectable by the sensor.

Abstract: A high speed granule delivery system and method is disclosed for dispensing granules in intermittent patterns onto a moving asphalt coated strip in the manufacture of roofing shingles. The system includes a granule hopper and a rotationally indexable pocket wheel in the bottom of the hopper. A series of pockets are formed in the circumference of the wheel and the pockets are separated by raised lands. A seal on the bottom of the hopper seals against the raised lands as the wheel is indexed. In use, the pockets of the pocket wheel drive through and are filled with granules in the bottom of the hopper. As each pocket is indexed beyond the seal, it is exposed to the moving asphalt coated strip below and its granules fall onto the strip to be embedded in the hot tacky asphalt. The speed at which the wheel is indexed is coordinated with the speed of the asphalt coated strip so that granules and strip are moving at about the same forward speed or at a preselected ratio of speeds when the granules fall onto the strip. Well defined patterns of granules are possible at high production rates.

Abstract: Information about the operating system application programming interfaces is stored in a known format in a known location. This information fully describes the APIs exposed by the operating system and is stored in API metadata files. A language compiler or interpreter uses this API information to build a natural and familiar representation of the native system API in the target language. The language compiler or interpreter can read the API information at compile time and/or runtime. The metadata is used to allow an application to refer to named elements in the API. Projections are built that use the metadata to map named elements in the API to named elements in the target language, and to define wrappers that marshal data of those elements between the target representation and the native operating system representation.
