Title: A rolling mill with roll deflection bi-dimensionally controlled
Inventor: ZHENG HONGZHUAN
IPC: B21B13/02
Filed: 1999-03-04
Abstract: A rolling mill with high precision in which its rolls are automatically supported in two dimensions at their mid-portions for controlling their flexures, comprising a housing, cluster of rolls and roll chocks. Said chocks consist of mid-chocks, side chocks which are horizontally sliceable and middle supporting means there between. In order to minimize the flexible deflection of the rolls during rolling, the rolling mill of the present invention is further provided with a bi-dimensionally mid-supporting automatic system, which is comprised of the housing, the chocks, a first mid-supporting means between the mid-chocks and the side chocks, a second mid-supporting means between the housing and the chocks, a third mid-supporting means between the housing and the side chocks. Said mid-supporting means comprise a screwdown means, horizontal supporting blocks, vertical supporting blocks and supporting blocks between the mid-chocks and the side-chocks. With such structure of the rolling mill, the flexible deflection of the rolls is significantly suppressed, thereby reducing the deviation of the rolled strips or plates in the cross-sections.

Patent NZ-527288-A (NZ)
Title: Safety harness
Inventor: GAYETTY JOSEPH F
IPC: A62B35/00
Filed: 2002-02-04
Abstract: A safety harness to be worn by a person includes a strap portion for extending over a portion of the person's body to retain the person within the safety harness. At least a section of the strap portion includes an outer shell of a high strength, flexible material. The outer shell has a channel therein. The outer shell can, for example, have a tubular construction. The strap portion further includes a flexible inner member within the channel of the outer shell. The flexible inner member generally prevents the lateral edges of the strap portion from forming a sharp edge when under tension. In that regard, the lateral edges of the strap portion preferably remain blunted, arced or rounded rather than forming a sharp edge when the strap portion is under tension forces experienced in normal use of the safety harness. The rounded or blunted lateral edges of the strap portion of the present invention reduce or eliminate the binding, pinching and chaffing common with currently available safety harnesses
