Patent AU-4905590-A (AU)
Title: Improvements in apparatus for particle determination in liquid metals
Inventor: HACHEY RAYNALD
IPC: G01N15/10
Filed: 1990-02-02
Abstract: The invention relates to apparatus for on-line particle determination in molten metals, wherein a sample of the molten metal is drawn by a vacuum through a calibrated passage (22) in the side-wall of a heat-resistant tube (16) while a current is established through the passage between two electrodes (12,14) on either side thereof. The passage of non-conducting particles through the orifice produces pulses whose magnitude and rate indicate respectively their size and the number of particles per unit volume. The electrodes (12,14) and their leads (30,32) form an interference-receiving antenna so that the wanted test signal, whose signal/noise ratio is inherently low, is subject to interference from neighbouring sources, such as motors, fluorescent lamps and particularly induction furnaces. The invention provides for the production of a cancellation signal to reduce the unwanted interference component in the test signal by means of a cancellation antenna sufficiently close to the detector electrodes to receive substantially the same signal, the antenna either feeding the cancellation signal to a differential amplifier also fed with the wanted signal, or being connected in series with the interference antenna. The cancellation antenna can comprise a loop mounted on the head that supports the two electrodes.

Title: Method and apparatus for treating turf
Inventor: COMMER ROBERT C
IPC: A01B45/02
Filed: 1990-01-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating turf to reduce the general soil density in which turfgrasses grow and thus promote turf growth and turf drainage which includes injecting through the turf into the soil a pattern of jets of generally incompressible liquid at a jet pressure and jet spacing to provide a lateral dispersion of the liquid within the soil such that the liquid dispersion from adjacent jets coact with one another to lift and fracture the soil. A plurality of small diameter nozzles are mounted on a movable frame generally transverse to the direction of travel of the frame. A pressurized fluid source is mounted on the frame and connected through a control device to the nozzles. The control device control the flow of liquid from the pressure source to the nozzles to produce periodic, relatively small cross-sectional, slugs, or jets, of liquid from the nozzles through the turf into the soil. The pressure on each slug of liquid is such that the liquid penetrates through the turf into the soil and also disperses generally laterally within the soil. The spacing of the nozzles and the speed of travel of the frame are such the lateral dispersion of each slug of liquid coacts with adjacent slugs to lift and fracture the soil, thereby reducing the compaction, or general density, of the soil and promoting turf growth and drainage.

Title: Low voltage multipole circuit breaker
Inventor: NEEL JEAN-PHILIPPE
IPC: H01H9/46
Filed: 1986-06-11
Abstract: A moulded case low voltage circuit breaker for high currents has no arcing contacts and is equipped with arc blow-out means drawing the arc very quickly away from the contacts. An insulating shield associated with the moving contact forms an arc formation chamber of a small volume which is open in the direction of the arc chute. The moving and stationary contacts are fitted with arcing horns constituting a small divergent path in proximity to the contacts favoring rapid displacement of the arc, this divergent path leading to an area defined by a hump of the horn. In this area, the clearance of the arcing horns is smaller than the clearance between the contacts as soon as the latter separate to avoid any rearcing on these contacts.

Title: Detent mechanism for a hinged orthopaedic brace
Inventor: NEBOLON JOSEPH F
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 1994-07-06
Abstract: A hinge assembly is provided for an orthopaedic brace having a rotatable hinge and a detent mechanism to automatically, yet releasably, lock the hinge in a fixed position or rotation. The hinge includes two rotatably attached members and the detent mechanism includes an indentation formed in the attached end of one member and a block pivotally mounted on the other member. The block has a locking projection that is biased toward the indentation and cooperates therewith to provide three positions of operation, a locked position, a release position, and an activated position. In the locked position, the locking projection fittingly engages the indentation, thereby substantially preventing rotation of the hinge. The release position displaces the locking projection a radial distance away from the indentation, thereby permitting the hinge to rotate freely. In the activated position, the block disengages the indentation and maintain an angular distance therefrom so that the detent mechanism does not obstruct rotation of the hinge, but enables automatic repositioning of the hinge assembly to the locked position whenever the locking projection and indentation angularly realign. <IMAGE>

Title: Process for the production of ultrafine particles
Inventor: MCCORMICK PAUL GERARD
IPC: C01F17/224
Filed: 1996-08-28
Abstract: A new, cost effective process for the production of ultrafine particles which is based on mechanically activated chemical reaction of a metal compound with a suitable reagent. The process involves subjecting a mixture of a metal compound and a suitable reagent to mechanical activation to increase the chemical reactivity of the reactants and/or reaction kinetics such that a chemical reaction can occur which produces a solid nano-phase substance. Concomitantly, a by-product phase is also formed. This by-product phase is removed so that the solid nano-phase substance is left behind in the form of ultrafine particles. During mechanical activation a composite structure is formed which consists of an intimate mixture of nano-sized grains of the nano-phase substance and the reaction by-product phase. The step of removing the by-product phase, following mechanical activation, may involve subjecting the composite structure to a suitable solvent which dissolves the by-product phase, while not reacting with the solid nano-phase substance. The process according to the invention may be used to form ultrafine metal powders as well as ultrafine ceramic powders. Advantages of the process include a significant degree of control over the size and size distribution of the ultrafine particles, and over the nature of interfaces created between the solid nano-phase substance and the reaction by-product phase.
