Title: Non-aqueous neutralization of n-acyl sarcosines
Inventor: CRUDDEN JOSEPH J
IPC: C11D1/10
Filed: 1995-05-24
Abstract: A process for the non-aqueous neutralization of N-Acyl sarcosines. N-Acyl sarcosines are neutralized with anhydrous hydroxide or with hydroxide with low water content, ideally less than 20% water, using high shear. The process eliminates numerous stages previously required on route to a 100% active product. In addition, 30% solutions can be produced by the instant process, with the advantage of avoiding pH ranges at which gel phases or liquid crystals form.

IPC: F16D13/71
Filed: 1995-06-19
Abstract: A  friction device  includes  an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the device in response to wear on a friction surface within the device.  The adjustment mechanism includes a first cam ring and a second cam ring adjacent the first cam ring.  In one embodiment,  the first cam ring is adapted for axial, but non-rotational movement with respect to a cover of the friction device,  the  cover  being  secured  to  a  driving  member  for transmitting  torque.   The  second  cam  ring  is  adapted  for rotational movement with respect to the cover and the first cam ring.   The  first cam ring has a plurality of annular ramped surfaces on an axial face of the first cam ring.  The second cam ring has a plurality of annular ramped surfaces on an axial face opposing the axial face of the first cam ring.  The second cam ring is rotated with respect to the first cam ring such that the ramped surfaces cam against each other to  increase the axial displacement of the  first  cam ring and the second cam ring, whereby the axial displacement is adapted to compensate for wear on a friction surface of a member of the friction device.

Abstract: A communication system (100) employs a method (600) and apparatus (101) for coveying a communication signal between a communication unit (105) and a base site (101) that services a sectorized coverage area (103). The communication unit (105) transmits an uplink communication signal (113) to the base site (101).
