Title: Process for petroleum-wax separation at or above room temperature
Inventor: ACKERSON MICHAEL D
IPC: C10G73/06
Filed: 1992-01-28
Granted: 1995-11-09
Abstract: There are disclosed processes for separating waxes of different melting points from a room temperature amorphous or liquid hydrocarbon mixture in an energy conservative manner by selectively causing precipitation of crystallized waxes. The processes involve the use of a selected co-solvent totally miscible with light and intermediate hydrocarbons from a group consisting of acetone, ketene, propanone, 2-propanone, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, N-propanol, acetic acid, formic acid, and propionic acid or combinations thereof as a precipitating agent. Hydrocarbon mixtures, especially those with elevated pour points are first diluted by solvents such as toluene and/or methylethyl ketone which must be free of any significant quantity of the aforesaid co-solvents. The diluted hydrocarbon mixture at above 50 degrees F. is mixed with one or more of such selected co-solvents in a ratio preferably between 1:1 and 10:1 by weight to the heavy hydrocarbon content of the mixture; five minutes or more without artificial cooling is allowed to permit crystallization of waxes which are removed in solid form by a physical process such as filtering, settling, or the like. By controlling the amount and nature of the selected co-solvent and by including or excluding water or brine with the co-solvent, valuable waxes of high melting point may be selectively separated, or all waxes may be removed indiscriminately; performing the separation process in several stages of adding co-solvent and/or water permits selecting out more valuable high melting point waxes first before succeeding stages reduce the wax content of the remaining liquid hydrocarbon to minimal values to enhance its value.

Title: Induction furnace monitor
Inventor: SMALLEY DANIEL S
IPC: G01R31/08
Filed: 1983-07-06
Granted: 1988-04-21
Abstract: Methods of investigation ground faults, particularly on coreless induction furnaces, using a computerised monitor which includes a first potential transformer connected across the coil and second potential transformer connected between one end of the coil and an electric ground. The relative location of a ground fault along the length of the coil is determined by computing the ratio of the transformer outputs. The monitor further includes a first current transformer in the coil power line and a second current transformer with melt bath ground. Internal ground faults are detected by computing the phase difference between the coil and ground currents. A graphic representation of the furnace is also generated to illustrate the location of the ground fault with respect to turns and yokes of the coil. The monitor also calculates liner wear by determining melt bath volume, which is inversely proportional to melt bath resistance, which in turn is proportional to coil resistance. If the furnace being monitored is provided with more than one coil, a differential current transformer is connected across each coil to detect the fault grounded coil when the transformer associated with the faulted coil exhibits a substantially non-zero output.

Title: Method of making metal matrix composites
Inventor: DWIVEDI RATNESH KUMAR
IPC: B22F3/00
Filed: 1988-12-08
Granted: 1992-03-05
Abstract: An aluminum metal matrix composite comprises an aluminum metal matrix embedding a second filler (2), such as a ceramic second filler, and is formed by contacting, for example, a molten aluminum metal (20) with a permeable mass of second filler (22) within a ceramic impervious mold (12) formed by growing a polycrystalline oxidation reaction product into a first filler. By hermetically sealing the second filler (22) within the mold (12) with a body of molten aluminum metal (20), the latter spontaneously infiltrates the mass of second filler (22) at moderate temperatures, e.g. about 900 DEG C, without need of any other infiltration expedients. The molten mass containing the infiltrated ceramic filler is solidified to provide the metal matrix composite which may be recovered from the mold (12). Optionally, the solidification is carried out under bonding conditions including maintaining the solidifying material in direct contact with the ceramic mold, to provide the metal matrix composite joined to the mold, or a part thereof, as a structural component.

Title: Unidirectional ear microphone and method
Inventor: NORRIS ELWOOD G
IPC: H04M1/05
Filed: 1992-09-23
Granted: 1997-04-10
Abstract: An ear piece device configured for being supported in the ear and providing a microphone which primarily detects only sounds originated by the user is contained within a housing which is configured at one end to fit snugly at the ear canal of the user, but not to extend within the ear canal. A microphone element is coupled within the housing in a position such that the microphone element is separated from contact with the skull of the user by the housing. This microphone element is contained within a casement which is mechanically and acoustically isolated from vibrations occurring within the housing. Mounting rings formed of acoustical absorbing materials are interposed around the casement and between the housing and casement in a displaced configuration on opposing ends of the casement to result in cancellation of residual vibrations passing to the microphone element from the housing. A speaker element may be included within the ear device and can be decoupled acoustically so as to avoid feedback. This system can operate with full duplex and enable hands free communication and direct voice command by user through computer modems, telephone networks and other communication systems.

Date Mar. 14, 1996The disclosure describes a process for the manufacture of cellulosic moulded bodies in which cellulose is dissolved in a mixture of a tertiary amine oxide and a non-solvent for cellulose, e.g. water. The solution is extruded via a moulding tool and the filaments received are led via an air gap to a precipitation bath whilst being drawn. The process is characterised in that the precipitation bath substantially comprises a non-aqueous solvent for the tertiary amine oxide, whereby the molecular weight of the non-aqueous solvent is larger than that of the tertiary amine oxide. In this manner, solvent-spun fibers with a lower fibrillation tendency can be obtained. Polyethylene glycols are preferably used.

Granted: 1988-08-11
Abstract: A reciprocating jigsaw tool having a plurality of selectible fixed linear plunger and blade motions as well as fully adjustable orbital and manual or auto scrolling saw blade control. A single mode selector is provided to select between the above operational modes. The mode selector includes a cam to selectively limit the oscillatory motion of a pivotally mounted plunger upper swivel bearing carriage assembly thereby directly limiting the degree of orbital plunger motion. The mode selector further includes a gear segment in operative engagement with a rack member which, in turn, engages an integral scrolling interface member of the top-mounted scrolling adjustment knob. The scrolling interface member incorporates an annular ring having a gap therein adapted to inhibit upward travel of the rack which, in turn, inhibits orbital saw operation when the plunger and blade is positioned other than in the cut forwardly position. The scrolling interface further includes locking ridges adapted to engage the rack and to preclude rotation of the scrolling adjustment knob when either the orbital or fixed linear mode is selected.
