Patent EP-0063116-A4 (EP)
Title: Apparatus for the recovery of vaporized phthalic anhydride from gas streams.
Inventor: WAY PETER F
IPC: F28D15/00
Filed: 1980-10-23
Abstract: Phthalic anhydride is recovered from gases in a multiple heat-Pipe exchanger system, one or more heat exchangers (10) for condensing phthalic anhydride from gases containing vapors thereof and one or more heat exchangers (10) for simultaneously melting out the condensed phthalic anhydride solids, the exchangers (10) being switched in alternate cycles to melt out from the surfaces of the exchangertube (14) ends on which the phthalic anhydride solids were first accumulated, and to condense phthalic anhydride solids in the exchanger (10) or exchangers (10) from which the phthalic anhydride was removed by melting out, the cooling of opposite heat-pipe exchanger tube (14) ends to recover phthalic anhydride is economical and efficient with ambient air, either alone or with some warm recycle exchanger air to adjust the cooling temperature; and the heating to melt out accumulated phthalic anhydride is effective with hot gases, such as combustion gases, preferably by incineration a residual phthalic anhydride tail gas from which the phthalic anhydride was condensed, or other hot combustion gases, but other sources of heating the air or gases may be optionally substituted. Important advantage is present in superior heat exchange efficiency using the heat-pipe exchanger (10) for this service, in the ready switching from heating to cooling of such exchangers (10) for alternate operation in both condensing and melting out modes, in the elimination of intermediary heat transfer media and the separate auxiliary equipment required for the heating and cooling cycles, in the utilization of waste heat from combustion gases, and in the great economy for phthalic anhydride storage tank vent condensers through elimination of both cooling water and steam requirements.

Patent EP-0348396-A4 (EP)
Title: Radio receiver speech amplifier circuit
IPC: G10L21/0316
Filed: 1987-11-27
Abstract: A speech amplifier circuit increases the maximum perceived loudness at the speaker (412) and reduces distortion at high volume levels without increasing the power consumed by the speech powder amplifier (410). When a low volume is selected by the volume control (414), the microcomputer (418) sets the step attenuator (406) at a correspondingly high attenuation level and the high-pass filter (408) is bypassed. As the volume control (414) is advanced and the speech power amplifier (410) is 12 dB into clipping, the microcomputer (418) activates the high-pass filter (408) and simultaneously steps the gain of the step attenuator (406) by 6 dB.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, on écrit, dans un programme, une pluralité de points de positionnement qui se trouvent sur une ligne droite, dans un espace, et qui doivent être enseignés. Lorsque la position d'un point arbitraire faisant partie des ces points à enseigner est modifiée par décalage du point d'une certaine distance le long de la ligne droite, la position dudit point après modification peut être facilement trouvée sans prise de conscience du système de coordonnées. La position après modification est déterminée en tant que vecteur de position à partir du vecteur de position du point avant modification, de la distance du décalage le long de la ligne droite, et des vecteurs de position de deux autres points arbitraires sur la ligne droite. Tout en observant le dispositif d'affichage fixé au dispositif d'entrée manuel du système de commande du robot, l'opérateur entre manuellement les positions des points à enseigner devant être modifiés, les deux points à enseigner arbitraires se trouvant sur la ligne droite, et la distance de décalage requise pour la modification.

Title: Spin encapsulation apparatus and method of use
Inventor: DORIAN RANDEL E
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 1995-03-30
Abstract: A coating apparatus includes a rotary cup for forming beads and projecting them radially outwardly, and one or more collection basins surrounding the bead forming cup. The cup is adjustably rotatable about its central axis, and the collection basins are independently rotatable and positioned to collect the beads projected from the cup. The coating apparatus further includes an elevation adjustment system for axially adjusting the alignment of the cup with respect to the selected collection basins. The rotational speeds of the cup and the collection basins are selected so as to minimize the impact of the beads against a gelling solution in the collection basins. In use, a supply mixture is introduced into a mixing chamber of the cup. As the cup spins, the coated particles are propelled upwardly by the centrifugal force from the mixing chamber along the inner surface of the cup, and are projected radially outwardly, as beads, into the gelling solution in one of the selected basins. Since the cup and the basin are simultaneously rotated, the impact of the beads against the capture solution is significantly reduced.
