Abstract: A process and apparatus for continuously forming a product having elongate members (10) at least about one foot long which are oriented, compressed and bonded. The process comprises depositing elongate members (10) on a moving carrier (39) with an orientation that is substantially parallel to the direction of movement of said carrier (39), said members (14) being deposited on said carrier (39) over a length of carrier (39) that is at least as long as about one-half times the length of the elongate members (10) and is at least as long as about 30 times the final thickness of the compressed, composite product. The apparatus comprises a first conveyor (30) along which elongate members (10) travel, said elongate members (10) being arranged transverse to the direction of travel of said first conveyor (30). This first conveyor (30) feeds a second conveyor (33) which is arranged to move transversely of said first conveyor (30) and to collect said elongate members (10). The second conveyor (33) then feeds a third conveyor (39) whereupon the final product is formed.

Title: Electro-mechanical controls for ventilators and methods employing same
Inventor: BURTENSHAW RAYMOND ALFRED FRAN
IPC: A62C2/24
Filed: 1985-11-14
Abstract: An electro-mechanical ventilator control mechanism comprises a rotary actuator (19) operable to move a control arm (1) to open and close the ventilator via a force transmitting member (10) formed in two sections (4, 5), normally retained telescoped one within the other by an electromagnetic device (2, 3) mounted on the section (4) and an electromagnetic keeper plate (4) mounted on the section (5), spring means (7) being provided pulling on the end of the member (10) and tending to open the ventilator. De-energisation of the electromagnetic device (2, 3) e.g. under the control of an automatic fire ventilating system, releases the keeper plate (4) and allows the ventilator to open under the action of the spring (7). Subsequent operation of the rotaray actuator (19) and re-energisation of the electromagnetic device (2, 3) re-sets the ventilator for automatic operation. Instead of a rotary actuator (19) a linear actuator (20) may be used.

Title: Process for recovering regenerated adsorbent particles and separating ash therefrom
Inventor: BERRIGAN JOHN K JR
IPC: B01J20/34
Filed: 1988-03-04
Abstract: Regenerated adsorbent particles, such as activated carbon, are recovered from a wet oxidation-regenerated mixed sludge liquor from a wastewater treatment system by diluting and settling a blowdown slurry (20) from the wet oxidation reactor (12) to obtain a first aqueous phase (32) containing primarily regenerated adsorbent particles and fine ash particles and a first solids phase (28) containing primarily grit particles. The first aqueous phase (32) is combined with a portion (16) of the regenerated adsorbent particle slurry withdrawn from the upper portion of the wet oxidation reactor (12) and, after treatment with a dispersing agent (36) and then an anionic flocculating agent (44), the resulting mixture (46) is settled to obtain a second aqueous phase (54) containing primarily fine ash particles and a second solids phase (50) containing primarily regenerated adsorbent particles. The second solids phase (50) is recycled to the wastewater treatment system for re-use and, after treatment with a cationic flocculating agent (58), the second aqueous phase (54) is settled to obtain a substantially particle-free third aqueous phase (66) and a third solids phase (64) containing primarily fine ash particles. Slurries (28) and (64) containing the grit and fine ash particles are combined and dewatered prior to disposal.

Abstract: Absorbent articles having side panels that provide inflected barrier cuffs which promotes better containment and fit. The absorbent articles comprise a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, an absorbent core positioned between the topsheet and the backsheet; a side panel extending laterally from each longitudinal edge of the absorbent article and having a proximal edge, a distal edge and a fold intermediate the distal edge and the proximal edge; spacing means for spacing the distal edge away from the liquid-receiving surface (topsheet) of the absorbent article; and a closing means for securing the distal edges inboard of the proximal edges in the front waist region. The fold of the side panel is secured inboard of the proximal edges in the front waist region and is disposed outboard of the proximal edge in the rear waist region when fitted to the wearer. Thus, the side panels are inflected such that the portion of the side panels in the rear waist region provide a gasketing action about the buttocks of the wearer to contain exudates and a snug fit, while the stand-up portions of the side panels in the crotch region and the closed portion of the side panels in the front waist region provide channels to contain, restrain and hold body exudates.

Title: Hydrogen collection and detection
Inventor: DEAN FRANK WILLIAM HOULTON
IPC: G01N33/00
Filed: 2000-01-05
Granted: 2003-09-24
Abstract: In many areas of technology where steel is used it is important to know how much hydrogen is in the steel. In the complete Specification of our British Patent No: 2,312,279 (P1448) there is described and claimed a hydrogen detection system including a collection enclosure to be placed against the steel surface to be tested and for gathering into a carrier gas passed therethrough hydrogen emanating from that surface. The system is satisfactory for use in connection with flat surfaces, but less so for surfaces that are not flat. The present invention seeks to deal with the conformity problem by making the collector (12) a flexible plate (21) on the receptor face of which are constructed raised grooves or high spots, which may be presented approximately parallel to an approximately flat surface or approximately tangential to a curved surface, and which form guiding channels (201) along which hydrogen emanating from the surface (11) underlying the plate can be drawn and sent to an associated detector system (15). <IMAGE>

Inventor: VANDERVEEN JAMES KENNETH
IPC: F02M35/10

Granted: 2006-05-10
Abstract: Laser welding is used to attach an air induction component to a hose member. The air induction component includes a wall with an opening that cooperates with the hose member. The hose member includes a flange that directly engages the wall of the induction component on a surface surrounding the opening. One of the hose or induction component is made from a laser transparent material and the other of the hose or induction component is formed from a laser absorbing material. Contour through transmission welding is used to generate a laser beam that passes through the transparent material, heats the absorbing material, which in turn heats the transparent material and forms a laser weld.
