Abstract: A lance holder 1 characterized by a high degree of operational safety is equipped with a mounting or a pipe fixing, which safely prevents a rotation even of a bent lance pipe 2 in the lance holder 1. The clamping head 3 has a fixing part 4 and a clamping part 5, which ensure a punctiform fixation by way of displaceable pressure elements 14, particularly in the form of spheres 15. At least three such spheres 15 are disposed across the circumference in a distributed manner, and ensure the safe fixation across a large tolerance range with regard to the dimensions of the lance pipes 2. Said large tolerance region is further secured in that sealing sleeves 6 having a larger inside diameter may be used, since the same are no longer deformed in the longitudinal direction in order to provide the seal, but instead are deformed in the radial direction. In summary the high degree of operational safety is also completed by the association of a chip 47 and/or attachment of a nanocoating 53.

Filed: 2009-07-20
Granted: 2015-03-24
Abstract: A method of stiffening a rib (19, 20) during the assembly of an aircraft wing is described. A stiffener panel (40, 41) is attached to a face of the rib (19, 20). The rib is aligned with one or more wing components with the stiffener panel (40, 41) attached. An assembly operation such as drilling (16) is performed with the rib aligned and the stiffener panel attached. The stiffener panel (40, 41) is removed from the rib after the assembly operation. The stiffener panel has a resilient external sealing ring which is mounted on a face of the panel and forms an external perimeter of a vacuum cavity; and at least one resilient internal sealing ring which is mounted on the panel (20, 21) within the perimeter defined by the external sealing ring and forms an internal perimeter of the vacuum cavity. The stiffener can be attached to the rib by a vacuum clamping force, the vacuum being sealed by the external and internal sealing rings. The internal sealing ring(s) seal any holes which are present in the rib. The stiffener (40, 41) can support the rib (20, 21) during alignment to give it the required flatness.

Abstract: To provide a torque detection device for a power steering which is not complicated in structure and which is less liable to be influenced by external factors or by a bending force exerted on a shaft. The torque detection device for the power steering is so configured that a torque generation between an input shaft, which is turned interlockedly with a steering handle for operating the traveling direction of a vehicle, and an output shaft turned interlockedly with the input shaft so as to steer a wheel or wheels is detected, and that an assisting force exerted on the output shaft by an assisting unit is determined based on the detection result. The torque detection device is provided between the input shaft and the output shaft and includes a cam mechanism by which a torque generated between the input shaft and the output shaft is converted into a thrust force, and a pressure sensor for detecting the thrust force into which the torque is converted by the cam mechanism.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for an upscaling approach based on dynamic simulation of a given model. A system and method can be configured such that the accuracy of the upscaled model is continuously monitored via indirect error measures. If the indirect error measures are bigger than a specified tolerance, the upscaled model is dynamically updated with approximate fine-scale information that is reconstructed by a multi-scale finite volume method. Upscaling of multi--phase flow can include flow information in the underlying fine-scale. Adaptive prolongation and restriction operators are applied for flow and transport equations in constructing an approximate fine-scale solution.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and arrangement for separating two solutions mixed in dispersion into two solution phases in a liquid-liquid extraction separation cell (1). The shut-off element (3, 4, 5) comprises a front panel (8) that extends along the whole width of the cell. The front panel (8) includes a bottom edge (9), which is arranged at a distance (H1, H2, H3) from the cell bottom (7), so that the front panel (8) allows an unobstructed flow of the heavier solution phase directly forwards underneath the bottom edge (9). In the vertical direction, the front panel extends to such a height that it forces the lighter solution phase placed on the heavier solution phase to flow as a thin overflow layer over the top edge (12) of the front panel (8) and forces the dispersion to thicken in front of the front panel. The rear panel (15) is essentially parallel with the front panel (8) and placed at a distance (S) therefrom, so that in between the front panel and the rear panel, there is formed an uptake shaft (14) extending essentially vertically upwards, along which uptake shaft the thickened dispersion can rise upwardly and be compressed. At least one slanting plate (16) is in the direction of the flow placed at an inclined angle ( ), inclined upwardly with respect to the horizontal plane. The slanting plate attenuates and slows down the vertical component of the rising compressed dispersion flow and guides the dispersion essentially in the lengthwise direction of the cell as a dispersion flow to the successive separator part.
