Title: Separation process of phenol from a mixture containing at least hydroxyacetone, cumene, water and phenol
Inventor: KORTE HERMANN-JOSEF
IPC: C07C37/72
Filed: 2001-11-30
Abstract: Phenol is separated from a mixture containing hydroxyacetone, cumene, water and phenol, by fractionating the mixture in a process with a fractional distillation step and a phase separation step to provide a single phenol fraction containing less than 300 ppm of hydroxyacetone. In the work-up by distillation of cleavage product mixtures, the hydroxyacetone can be removed from the cleavage product mixture together with a phenol fraction from which the hydroxyacetone has to be removed. A process can be used for purifying cleavage product mixtures obtained in the cleavage of alkylaryl hydroperoxides such as cumene hydroperoxide. The process allows separation of phenol and acetone from mixtures obtained in the cleavage of cumene hydroperoxide.

Abstract: Changing from the closed secured position with pin (11) fast-latched (14), the pin has to be moved relative rod (8) into the closed setting and so clear of the latch (14) or return to the latch by reverse movement. The rod (8) moves only sluggishly in i joint (10) and can be bolted in its de-latched position by means of an endstop (20) whose condition is governed by the degree of swivel to reach its operative top setting. The stop (20) can act as driver (18) when operating towards the window cleaning posit and is arranged on an arm of the scissor linkage lever (7) as coupled to the rod (8) through a pin and hole coupling (11-15), an between the scissor linkage arms (7,6). At its non-joint end (10) the rod (8) itself acts as endstop near its nose part (16) and between the active and waiting positions of the nose. The nose uses its control sector (17) which releases the endstop (20) once de-latched to allow the endstop to adopt its operative setting. In the active setting the endstop works with the back stop (18) the nose (16) and in this way entrains the rod (8) towards the cleaning position, or again moves the back stop (18) along the ma endstop (20).

IPC: H04N21/647
Filed: 1993-03-26
Abstract: At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams. The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data stream respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability.

IPC: H02P8/42
Filed: 2000-01-18
Abstract: An improved DC servo motor driver circuit is provided that is based upon a
readily available conventional stepper motor driver integrated circuit (IC) (U1).
The IC's current "Sense" line that is usually connected to a low value resistor is
instead tied to DC common or to ground. The IC's "Comparator" input, which is
usually connected to the current Sense line, is connected to a pulsing input signal
(V T ) that provides the comparators (142) with an appropriate voltage to make the
comparators believe that more current is required at the very times the remaining
portions of the circuit are attempting to provide current to the DC servo motor
(114). An RC circuit is provided at the IC's "Pulse Time" input so that the
monostable timer (140) is properly triggered. An ASIC (152) provides the proper
logic signals to not only control the direction of the DC servo motor (114), but
also to provide pulses of an appropriate frequency and duty cycle to emulate a
pulse-width modulator. The direction signal is connected to the "Phase" input, and
the pulse-width modulated signal is provided to interface circuitry that drives the
Comparator and Pulse Time inputs. The output transistors (Q11,Q12,Q13,Q14) in
an H-bridge driver stage within the stepper motor driver IC are controlled so as to
provide pulse-width modulated voltage pulses across the motor winding of the DC
servo motor (114), such that this DC servo motor (114) can operate exactly as if it
were being driven by an integrated circuit that was specifically designed to act as a
DC servo motor driver circuit. The average current supplied over time to the DC
servo motor (114) is directly related to the duty cycle of the pulse-width modulated
voltage pulses across its winding, which in turn is directly related to the duty cycle
of the main input control signal.
