Abstract: A rapid deployment system for recovering oil from beaches includes an articulated vehicle for propelling and suspending a vacuum head above a beach or the like. A selected area of the beach is irrigated with sufficient quantities of water to saturate the selected area. Oil deposited on the beach is driven to the surface. A sufficient quantity and velocity of air moves over the surface beneath the vacuum head to develop a water column upon which resides a frothy foam mixture of air, water and oil which is drawn into the head. In the vacuum head, the velocity of the air flow is suddenly and significantly reduced above a fluid sump wherein entrained oil and water droplets fall into a sump for processing outside of the vacuum head. A metal auger can be provided within the vacuum head to pump oil from pools and separate entrained oil droplets from the high velocity air flow. A special terrain vehicle which propels and supports the vacuum head is modular and can be transported by helicopter with the entire system.

Abstract: Dispositif à structure simple et peu coûteuse, capable d'exécuter de manière fiable un processus d'enregistrement une seule fois, même lorsqu'il reçoit des signaux d'enregistrement de manière répétée en communiquant entre une antenne et un élément de réponse installé sur l'objet mobile. A réception du signal d'enregistrement provenant de l'antenne d'enregistrement, l'unité d'identification (unité de réponse) exécute une procédure d'enregistrement des données dans la mémoire à condition que l'indicateur d'achèvement ait été accepté par un circuit de contrôle. Lorsque la procédure d'enregistrement est exécutée, le circuit de contrôle établit l'indicateur d'achèvement. Après cela, même si des signaux d'enregistrement sont reçus de manière répétée, dans l'aire de communication de la même antenne d'enregistrement, le circuit de contrôle annule la procédure d'enregistrement du fait que l'indicateur d'achèvement est établi, ce qui interdit les enregistrements redondants.

Abstract: The invention relates to an installation with at least one liquid pump, especially water pump, preferably centrifugal pump, having an electric drive motor which is connected to a speed controller which is indirectly connected to the secondary distribution system. The main aspect of the invention is that there is connected to the secondary distribution system (N), especially directly, a mechanical or electronic two-point pressure controller or pressure limit value switch or electronic trigger (7), which can be switched on and off as a function of the pressure in the secondary consumer network and which communicates with an upwardly and downwardly adjustable speed controller (3) which can be switched on and off thereby. By means of said speed controller, when it is switched on, the motor and pump speed can be slowly or gradually raised to an upper limit (a) of the secondary distribution network pressure, as a result of which the delivery rate (Q) of the pump can similarly be raised slowly or gradually to an upper limit, and when it is switched off, the abovementioned speeds can be slowly or gradually reduced to a lower limit (b) of the secondary distribution network pressure, as a result of which the delivery rate (Q) of the pump can similarly be reduced slowly or gradually to a lower limit (mVe), and, if an upper limit (a) of the secondary distribution network pressure applies at the same time, the motor and pump speed can be reduced down to the standstill of motor and pump only if consumption is close to zero (Fig. 6, Fig. 7). Thus the complicated and expensive use of P, PI and PID controllers can be avoided. Moreover, according to the invention, the energy consumption and the wear and tear of drive motor and pump can be reduced. <IMAGE>
