Title: Internal combustion engine
Inventor: MERRITT DAN
IPC: F02B1/04
Filed: 1993-06-25
Granted: 1995-09-13
Abstract: An internal combustion engine has first and second cylinders (12, 14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14) and the second cylinder being formed in the crown of the first cylinder. First and second pistons (16, 18) are reciprocable respectively in the first and second cylinders (12, 14), the second piston (18) being formed as a protrusion on the crown of the first piston (16). The first cylinder has an air inlet (25) and an exhaust outlet (27) whilst a first fuel source (34) provides fuel to the second cylinder (14). The second piston has a crown (35) which is spaced from and connected to the crown (36) of the first piston and which has an edge (37) which is relatively thin in the axial direction compared to the spacing of the first piston crown from the second piston crown. This defines a combustion space (20) between the piston crowns and a side wall (14a) of the second cylinder (14) when the pistons are substantially at the inner dead centre position. The combustion space (20) communicates with both cylinders (12,14) during part of the expansion stroke. A spark plug (52) is provided communicating with the combustion space. Inhibiting means is also provided for inhibiting ingression prior to the pistons (16,18) arriving at or adjacent the inner dead centre position. This can take the form of a gap (128) between the second piston crown (35) and the second cylinder side wall (14a) with a peripheral groove (39) in the second cylinder wall at its upper end to enable the fuel/air mixture in the second cylinder (14) above the crown (35) to bypass the piston crown when the latter is at its inner dead centre position and enter the combustion space (20). The geometrical compression ratio of the engine, being the ratio of the volumes within the cylinders available for occupation by gas at the piston outer and inner dead centre positions, is chosen to ensure that the pressure and temperature reached in said combustion space near the end of the compression stroke are insufficient to cause spontaneous compression ignition of the fuel used. The ignition process is started with a spark and allowed to continue by compression ignition. After the spark ignition process begins, the flame raises the pressure and temperature of the gas in the combustion space sufficiently to cause compression-ignition of the remainder of the vaporised fuel as it ingresses into the combustion space under the action of the smaller piston and mixes with more air. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of bleaching sulphate pulp without using chlorine-containing bleaching agents. The sulphate pulp is oxygen delignified and can possibly also be ozone delignified to a kappa number below 9.5. Thereafter a pretreatment with complexing agent is carried out for 1-60 minutes, at which the pulp consistency is 1-15 %, the temperature 70-110  DEG C and pH 5-7. The pulp thus pretreated is washed and dewatered to a consistency of 18-40 %. Thereafter peroxide bleaching in alkaline environment takes place in the presence of silicate or an organic complexing agent of the type phosphonic or carboxylic acid.

Transporting gas is introduced into the first chamber to transport solid particles as multiple solid flows from the first chamber to the second chamber. A number of narrow passages in the partition wall disposed one on top of the other, and having a height to length ratio of less than 0.5, less than 50 mm, act as the gas seal and controllable solid flow valve in the partition. The transporting gas may be introduced through the bottom of the first chamber, a side wall opposite to the partition wall, or both, and the partition wall may be lined with refractory adjacent the first chamber with passages in the refractory lining being made of combustible material which is burned away during heating of the refractory lining. The passages may also slant upwardly slightly from the first chamber to the second chamber, e.g. about 15 degrees.

Abstract: The method involves creating a sealed packing of the grain in the scrubbing chamber (111). Bearing strips on the scrubbing rotor (105) are formed of alternate fields of cams (112) and spiral conveyors (113) so that the cams mainly move the individual grains and the conveyors create an axial movement. The movement of the grains is improved by cams on the scrubbing chamber working with those on the rotor. The scrubbing intensity is changed by altering the gap between the bearing strips and the rotor and/or by positioning or regulating the backlog forces at the outlet (102). The grain is scrubbed in respective dry and wet stages.

Abstract: A fluid coupling directly-drive a wheel from a small engine. The fluid coupling is mounted in cantilevered support or two ended bearing support from a small engine and has a small diameter inner driven shaft and a larger diameter out wheel driving shaft for contacting and directly driving a wheel. The inner driven shaft connects to a pump having a relatively larger outer diameter than either the driven or driving shaft. This pump is mounted on the opposite side of the driven wheel from the engine and preferably includes rotating vanes within one half a toroidal path having an attached eccentrically mounted toroidal plug for causing helical rotation of fluid about the plug. A turbine mates to the pump and includes rotating vanes within the other half of the toroidal path, these vanes being shaped around the toroidal plug of the pump. The toroidal plug and toroidal volumes are eccentrically mounted one with respect to another to cause high velocity flow on the outside diameter of the pump and turbine with low velocity flow in the inside diameter of the pump and turbine. Fluid, typically oil, is confined to the pump and turbine by appropriate seals and causes torque conversion between the pump and turbine. In the preferred embodiment, a fuel tank for the engine is mounted overlying the driven wheel so as to shield the interface of the wheel and driving spindle. At the same time, the exterior of the driven pump is supplied with vanes to generate appropriate air cooling at the fluid coupling.

Abstract: The pipe connection provides a slim cross connection for heating systems and is mounted behind a skirting board for a compact fitting. A first flow path (2) runs directly through the connection while a second flow path (4) is offset vertically to run through the connection. An upper connection (6) is internally connected to the second flow path by the shaping of the internal walls of the connection, and thus provides a compact cross connection. The first flow path can also have an upper connection with a cross flow at right angles to the through flows. The spacing of the upper connections are matched to size of the control valve, e.g., for a radiator connection and the whole unit is shaped to be secured by pipe clips. <IMAGE>
