Date Oct. 1, 1992.A method for the separation of a less dense liquid from a body of a more dense liquid on which the less dense liquid is floating, especially for the separation of oil floating on water, which includes passing a column of liquid at high velocity substantially vertically from within the body of liquid through the surface thereof thereby to entrain the less dense liquid and carry it away from the surface, and collecting the mixture of less dense liquid and other liquid(s) thereby produced. The apparatus for use in the invention includes a mechanism for generating a high velocity column of carrier liquid, a mechanism for directing the column upwardly through the body of liquid and the floating layer of less dense liquid to entrain the less dense liquid in a surface layer of the column and a device for directing the carrier liquid and entrained less dense liquid to a collector device. The directing device may comprise, for example, a spreader device with an outwardly and upwardly flared portion which diverts the liquid mixture to an annular collector or it may comprise a mushroom-shaped surface for directing the liquid mixture into a collector surrounding the support rod.

Abstract: The invention concerns a machine for substantially vertical casting of pipes (8) of a concrete-material or a similar material and having a spigot end (11), comprising inner and outer mould parts (2, 12) for forming a space between the two mould parts, means for axially displacing the inner and outer mould parts with respect to each other during the casting process, an axially journalled distributor wheel (1) being rotatably mounted on the top of the inner mould part, said distributor wheel having a plurality of blades (4) for distributing the material in the space between the two mould parts. The object of the invention is to provide a machine of the above type, which, with much narrower longitudinal tolerances than known before, can repeatedly cast concrete pipes with spigot ends which have the desired full shape and a concrete quality which satisfies the made requirements with certainty. This object is achieved in that the machine additionally comprises at least one vibrator (19) being preferably arranged upwardly in the inner mould part, and in that a profile ring (16) is provided which is or can be arranged upwardly in the outer mould part to shape the spigot end of the pipe. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A hybrid digital/analog video recorder prevents both analog and digital copying. The recorder (including a digital tape deck) inputs and outputs both analog and digital video signals. At the analog input, a detector detects conventional copy protection in the analog input video, and in response disables recording thereof. At the digital input, a first detector detects anti-copy bits present in the input material and in response prevents recording. A second bit detector detects serial copy prevention scheme bits, and in response adds an anti-copy bit to the input digital stream, preventing later copying of such material. When another bit detector detects anti-copy bits present in the playback digital data stream prior to conversion to analog, an analog copy protection signal modifies the output analog signal, inhibiting copying of the output signal. In another version, a specially adapted video recorder or playback device copy protects video source material which for technical reasons is not copy protectable. A copy protect "flag" is provided in a predetermined location in the video signal to be protected. The video recorder or playback device,, upon detection of the flag at playback, modifies the output standard (NTSC) video signal with a conventional copy protection process.

Abstract: A process and arrangement are disclosed for separating wire windings shaped out of a series of windings made of hot-rolled wire and deposited in a series of successive windings on a winding conveyor. The last and first end windings are separated therefrom and supplied to a severing arrangement controlled by sensors and by a computer. The object of the invention is to limit the severing process to a determined area and to shorten the displacement paths of the severing arrangement, as well as the time taken by the severing process. For that purpose, the last and first end windings of a series of successive windings (7, 9) are separated by a cutting device. Said windings are separated from the intermediate windings at two spots and a thus separated sample (40) is supplied to a catching arrangement (6). The cutting device separates the last and first end windings (7, 9) by retaining the intermediate windings (8) and then sends them on the winding conveyor (2) to a stationary ejector (10) which deposits them on a scrap conveyor (41).

Abstract: A method for the controlled introduction of a reducing agent into a nitrogen oxide-containing exhaust gas leaving an internal combustion engine through an exhaust line having a catalytic converter built in for reducing nitrogen oxide, includes detecting at least one operation-relevant parameter of the exhaust gas, of the catalytic converter and optionally of the engine to determine the nitrogen oxide rate. An intermediate value is determined for the reducing agent rate as a function of the nitrogen oxide rate. The intermediate value is reduced by a rate of the reducing agent desorbed by the catalytic converter or raised by a rate of the reducing agent adsorbed by the catalytic converter. An apparatus for performing the method includes a control unit. A device detects at least one operation-relevant parameter of the exhaust gas, of the catalytic converter and optionally of the engine. A reducing agent supply unit introduces the reducing agent into the exhaust line upstream of the catalytic converter. The control unit is intended to adjust a rate of the reducing agent introduced into the exhaust gas as a function of the parameters, while taking into account a rate of the reducing agent adsorbed by the catalytic converter or desorbed by the catalytic converter.
