Abstract: An on-board aircraft cargo handling system comprises a plurality of tines which are mounted within a cargo ramp and beneath its surface and are capable of extension aft of the ramp across a truck bed or the like. The tines have a plurality of rollers extending above their top surfaces for permitting easy movement of cargo across the tines. The ends of the tines are tapered to allow them to be pushed under the cargo to be moved. Pallet retainers, which consist of arm members which have finger-like projections on one end for allowing interengagement of the arm members with notches on the cargo, are mounted to the cargo ramp in such a way as to permit movement of the arms for aligning them with the cargo notches. Additionally, the cargo ramp surface includes pop-up chocks, which may be extended above the surface to lift the cargo, thus permitting forklift tines to be slid underneath. In a modified embodiment, the tines are mounted in open channels within the ramp, so that they are flush with the surface of the ramp in their retracted mode. Retractable friction brakes are employed on the surface of the tines, thus permitting the cargo to be moved in conjunction with the tines when the tines are being extended or retracted. The advantage of the invention is that cargo may be moved directly and quickly from the aircraft to a truck cargo bed (or vice-versa) without the use of ground-based material handling equipment.

Abstract: On établit le diagnostic de dérangements, par une évaluation, fondée sur une base de connaissances, de signaux qui indiquent la qualité des produits fabriqués, par exemple sur la base de spectrogrammes obtenus par inspection des paramètres d'assemblages de fibres ou de filaments textiles. Une première unité d'évaluation (NA) sert à détecter les écarts caractéristiques des spectrogrammes et génère pour chacun de ces écarts ce que l'on appelle un descripteur de dérangement (SD). Une seconde unité d'évaluation (WA) détermine les causes possibles de dérangement pour chaque descripteur de dérangement, en se fondant sur une base de connaissances (WB). Des dérangements se produisant sont automatiquement détectés et peuvent être diagnostiqués rapidement et de façon fiable.

Date Jun. 24, 1993A centrifugal separator comprises a drum (1) rotatable about its axis within which annular walls (10, 20) define discharge chambers (11, 21) at the ends of the drum, from which separated fluids of different specific gravities are discharged by respective scoops (14, 24). Alternatively, annular walls (44, 45 and 47, 49) define both such chambers at one end only of the drum. The dimensions of the annular walls are chosen so that the separator is self-regulating, in that the separated fluids are discharged independently of the proportions of the fluids in the incoming mixture, so that operation of the separator does not have to be controlled in response to sensing of the separation process within the drum.

Abstract: A system for termite detection and control is provided by a subterranean bait station having a perforated outer housing permanently implanted in the terrain below ground level, and a perforated cartridge removably received within the housing. The openings in the housing and the cartridge are in alignment with each other when the cartridge is fully received within the housing in its operational position. The cartridge received within the housing will initially contain a non-toxic bait material for diagnosing or assessing the level of a termite infestation; the bait cartridge is periodically removed from the housing to inspect for termite activity. If termite activity is detected, the non-toxic bait cartridge is replaced in the housing with a correspondingly perforated pesticide-containing bait cartridge for extermination of termites. Removal, replacement and substitution of the non-toxic and pesticide containing cartridges does not disturb pre-existing termite foraging galleries as a result of the precise alignment of the openings of the housing and the removable, exchangeable cartridges. The system may also be used for above-ground termite detection and control by externally mounting an appropriately modified housing to an outer surface of any article to be monitored, such as a timber.

Abstract: An improved polystyrene foam having less corrugation is disclosed which uses carbon dioxide as the blowing agent and 1-30 weight percent endothermic agent, such as water, with the weight based on the total carbon dioxide blowing agent and endothermic agent weight. This combination of carbon dioxide and endothermic agent decreases the corrugation of the thermoplastic foam, while just slightly increasing density, when the process parameters, including throughput, are equivalent to using only carbon dioxide. The process an also allow an increased foaming temperature and greater process throughput of an equivalent density thermoplastic foam at approximately equivalent corrugation levels when compared to the use of only using only carbon dioxide.

Abstract: A composite film bag 1 for packaging comprises a composite film of a water-insoluble film 2 and a water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol film 3 which are adhered to one another to such an extent that the former film 2 can easily be peeled off from the latter film 3 and which are formed into a bag so that the water-insoluble film 2 serves as an outer layer of the bag and the water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol film 3 serves as an internal layer thereof. A powdery or liquid agricultural chemical agent 6 is packed in the composite film bag 1 and the opening of the bag is sealed. Upon practical use, the outer water-insoluble film 2 is peeled off to expose the internal film 3 and the internal film 3 as such, while containing the agricultural chemical agent 6, is introduced into water. Thus, the internal film is dissolved in water and in turn the content 6 thereof is released and accordingly dissolved in water. The composite film bag 1 is not broken at all even when it is exposed to a low temperature condition.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A four-stroke engine comprising an engine frame including a block (111) and a head (113), the block forming at least one cylinder (114) and a crankcase (112). A piston (116) is mounted for reciprocation in the cylinder (114), and a crank (117) and connecting rod (118) are mounted in the crankcase (112) and connected to the piston (116). The crankcase (112) includes a fuel inlet port (128) and an outlet port, and a duct connects the outlet port (131) to an intake passage (132) in the head. The inlet port (128) is connected to a supply of a combustible mixture comprising fuel, lubricating oil and air. During engine operation, the mixture flows through the crankcase (112), the duct (132), and the air intake passage (128) to the cylinder (114). Valves (119,120) and valve actuating mechanisms control the flow of the mixture to the cylinder (114) and the flow of exhaust from the cylinder. The oil in the mixture lubricates the engine parts in the crankcase (112), the valves (119,120) and the valve actuating mechanisms. The duct (132) preferably forms a plenum or surge tank containing the mixture under pressure. The engine may include more than one cylinder and piston, such as a two-cylinder engine having pistons which move in synchronism to produce crankcase compression. <IMAGE>
