Patent CA-2395712-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WORKMAN JEROME J JR
IPC: G01N21/31
Filed: 2000-12-20
Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting the composition of a moving web product  on a real-time basis during the manufacturing process. Spectrometric monitoring equipment operates to derive information regarding physical and/or chemical properties of the web at multiple locations in the web's cross direction. Data from a plurality of spectral regions can be combined to produce a vector containing accurate information regarding the web's composition. This information is derived using multivariate mathematical techniques to yield a spatial data matrix for each component of interest. Composition information contained in the spatial data matrix can be reprojected as a "virtual composition map," or compared against ideal profil es stored in a computer memory.
Patent CA-2396657-A1 (CA)
Title: Adjustable stroke mechanism
Inventor: STOLTZ RYAN M
IPC: B30B1/26
Filed: 2002-08-02
Abstract: An adjustment stroke connection for a mechanical press includes an eccentric bushing disposed within a press connection member and an eccentric crankshaft member disposed within the eccentric bushing. A rotatable crankshaft is connected to the eccentric member. A mechanism is provided for connecting the eccentric bushing with the press connection member in a manner that prevents rotation therebetween and concurrently permits rotation of the eccentric member relative to the eccentric bushing. When the mechanism is activated, driving rotation of the crankshaft produces a press stroke adjustment. A torque actuator delivers equal driving torque to plural eccentric crankshaft members to enable minimization of relative bushing angle slip. Suitable control of the bushing angle and slide position crank angle during bushing expansion and contraction also minimizes relative bushing angle slip.

Inventor: EDWARDS JOHN C
IPC: C10G7/12

Abstract: In a distillation control system, a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sensor identifies the composition of petroleum distillates from a distillation towe r, and preferably also identifies the composition of the input feed method. Thi s information is processed to obtain estimates of values of selected propertie s of the distillates and the feed. These values are provided to a multivariate  controller, together with a setpoint of desired quality factors selected on the basis of competitive market forces, environmental regulations and econom ic factors including feed and product prices and operating cost. On the basis o f the NMR measured values of selected quality properties, the multivariate controller generates values of manipulated operating variables that, when applied to the distillation system, adjust the distillation operation to reduce differences between the controlled variables and their respective setpoints. The ultimate values of the operating variables are determined, preferably in conjunction with an optimizer so that product qualities are maintained and the tower is operated in an economically optimum manner subje ct to specific characteristics of the refinery.
