Abstract: The tobacco is treated with liquid ammonia, which dissolves some of the components of the tobacco, and these dissolved components are separated by evaporation of the ammonia and recombined with the treated tobacco. Recombination can be effected simply by evaporating the ammonia while the solution remains in contact with the tobacco or by separating the solution from the tobacco, evaporating the ammonia, dissolving the residue in water or alcohol and then recombining with the treated tobacco. 
     The effect of the treatment on bright tobacco, especially with a moisture content of 4 to 22%, is to add some burley character to the bright tobacco.

Abstract: A machine for electrochemically machining oversize airfoil blades of an integral bladed gas turbine engine rotor includes a yoke assembly on which the rotor is fixtured and which is pivotable to place the lateral center plane of the rotor at an angle or skew relative to the center plane of the machine and opposed cathodes in an electrolyte chamber at a workpart machining position in the chamber. The cathodes have pockets to receive airfoil blades adjacent the individual blade to be machined without contact with the adjacent blades as the cathodes and workpart are moved relative to the workpart machining position during workpart positioning in the chamber and also during advancement of the cathodes from a cathode start machining position toward the workpart during machining. The yoke assembly includes a pivot pin and locking mechanism for releasably locking the angular position of the yoke assembly. The angular relation of the center planes as well as pockets in the cathodes permit full accessing of the individual airfoil blade to be machined by movement of the cathodes in multiple directions.

Abstract: With this method the field of measurement of the movement alarm is divided into a number of distance zones within each of which the size of an object remaining or penetrating within the measurement field changes with respect to the size of the measurement field. Each distance zone can be allotted a particular signal amplitude at the output of the movement alarm. Similarly the time interval between entry and exit (if any) of the object is characteristic for each distance zone. The individual distance zones are monitored by means of a selective amplifier, one amplifier stage being allotted to each monitoring zone and the outputs of all the amplifier stages being compared in a comparator unit with predetermined reference values, which are preferably determined by technical measurements. On the basis of predetermined amplitude sequences and/or different signal frequencies, it is possible to detect penetration and subsequent residence in the individual distance zones. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An address information line (3) of a microprocessor (1) informs a memory management unit (4) of such address infor­mation that a current address is identical to an address before one bus-cycle or two bus-cycles or is a new address. Since the address information line (3) has a light load, the address information is transmitted at high speed. In addition, if the current address is identical to the address before one or several bus-cycles, address conversion within the memory management unit (4) can be accelerated in such a way that these addresses are temporarily stored in the memory manage­ment unit (4), whereupon the corresponding address is read out.

Abstract: Process for the removal of metals, in particular heavy metals, from waste water in the form of their sulfide by mixing the waste water with a water soluble sulfide. According to the invention the metal containing waste water is thoroughly mixed with the water soluble sulfide at a suitable pH in a reactor of the fluidized bed type, which is provided with an appropriate bed material, on which the metal sulfide crystallizes out, whereby the thus obtained bed material provided with crystalline metal sulfide is removed from and new bed material is added to the reactor from time to time. Usually as water soluble sulfide an alkali metal sulfide or alkali metal hydrogen sulfide or ammonium sulfide or FeS is used, whereas the use of sodium sulfide, sodium hydrogen sulfide, potassium sulfide or potassium hydrogen sulfide is preferred. According to the present process a.o. the following metals: Ni, Sr, Zn, Cu, Fe, Ag, Pb, Cd, Hg, Co, Mn, Te, Sn, n, Bi or Sb may be removed.

Abstract: A sling grip for a loop of chain (30) or the like comprising first (l,50) and second (2,5l) components capable of relative sliding movement in opposite directions, an anchorage (3l) for one end of the loop mounted on one of those components, and a rotatable profiled wheel (ll,53) also so mounted, the other end of the loop engaging with the wheel. At one extreme of the relative movement of the two components the wheel is free to rotate and so release the chain, while at the other extreme the wheel and chain are both held fast and the chain loop is secured. Two different mechanisms (l2,l6; 6l,64) for engaging the wheel and chain, at one extreme of the relative sliding movement of the two components, are described and illustrated. When a load contained within a secured loop of chain is lowered onto the ground, the two components slide to the relative position in which the wheel becomes disengaged, thus releasing the loop so that the load may be released from it. Catch means (37,39,4l) are described for insuring that once the wheel is so released, it does not become engaged again - for instance, if the grip is hauled up by a crane - unless the catch means have first been reset.
