Abstract: A method and an arrangement for cleaning the evacuation duct (28) of a vacuum sewer system is described. In such a system partial vacuum is used for providing transport of waste matter through a sewer pipe (2) from a waste matter providing unit (1) to a collecting chamber (13). Function control units (5, 12, 25) govern the generation of a partial vacuum in the sewer pipe (2) prior to each transport of a volume of waste matter through the sewer pipe (2). After completing the transport of a volume of waste matter from the providing unit (1) to the collecting chamber (13), the function control units (5, 12, 25) are activated to regenerate partial vacuum in the sewer system (2, 13) and thereafter to let in a charge of ambient air to flow through the evacuation duct (28), through which air is normally drawn from the system (2, 13) when the partial vacuum is generated. This provides a purging and cleaning of the evacuation duct (28). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In an apparatus for preparing coffee and other hot beverages, water drawn from a tank (24) upon the action of a pump (23) is forced through a vaporization coil (25) formed within a heating body (7) incorporating an electric resistor (6a). Steam consequently produced passes through a feed duct (21, 23) along which a mixing member operates, which member has a steam inlet chamber (32) and a steam outlet chamber (33) connected to each other by an intercommunication passage (34) into which perpendicularly opens an air admitting port (37) communicating with the surrounding atmosphere. Steam passing through the mixing member (30) is mingled with an appropriate amount of air and then sent to a delivery nozzle (20) accessible from the outside of the apparatus for admitting frothing steam to the inside of the beverage being prepared. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A flexible heat pad for heat transfer to a person's limb. The pad consists of a fabric (preferably cotton) envelope enclosing a load of cereal grains, preferably oats. Preferably, the water content of the oat is precisely monitored to remain within the 9 to 14% range by weight of the oat total weight. The quantity of oat grains inside the cotton envelope must be such as to provide even oat distribution within the cotton envelope enclosure, after deformation, whereby localized grainless pockets within the pad enclosure are substantially prevented. The pad is pre-heated for about two minutes inside a micro-wave oven, at full power setting, before use. Thermal inertia of the oat thereafter allows continuous heat diffusion to the limb for about half an hour. The pad may alternately be put into the freezer from at least four to six hours, to thereafter diffuse cold to the swollen limb part of a mammal.

Abstract: A process for reordering tobacco, which results in no significant decrease in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation, is provided. Tobacco to be reordered is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the ov content of the tobacco increases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is increased to affect reordering of the tobacco. Also provided is a process for drying tobacco, which results in no significant change in equilibrium tobacco CV or significant tobacco degradation. Tobacco to be dried is contacted with an air stream having a relative humidity near or below the equilibrium conditions of the tobacco. As the OV content of the tobacco decreases, the relative humidity of the air stream contacting the tobacco is decreased to affect drying of the tobacco. It has been found that tobacco can be reordered or dried successfully in a continuous manner using a self-stacking spiral conveyor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process of making a concentrate of coagulation proteins starting with whole human or animal plasma. This concentrate is used as a biological adhesive when extemporaneously mixed to thrombin. The concentrated proteins include mostly fibrinogen, fibrin stabilizing factor (factor XIII) and fibronectin. The claimed process has the advantage of being short of execution while providing an excellent yield of coagulable proteins. No protease inhibitor has to be added during the process. The process involves steps of separation by "salting-out" in presence of amino-6 hexanoic acid which prevents co-precipitation of plasminogen with the desired coagulable proteins. The proteins so obtained are very stable after reconstitution in water for at least 24 hours at room or body temperature. After mixing with thrombin and calcium, the adhesive shows excellent strength and biocompatibility.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to improved manually operated atomization systems which combine atomizing nozzles with high pressure, pre-compression type pump mechanisms in order to provide a consistent, high quality, finely-atomized spray of a comparatively higher viscosity fluid. The pre-compression pump mechanism ensures that the product will only be delivered when sufficient pressure is available for atomization regardless of the speed or authority with which the pump mechanism is actuated. When the fluid is discharged from the nozzle in a swirling, conical film, the fluid is broken up into a finely-dispersed mist which may then be directed toward the surface to be coated. Pump mechanisms for use with the present invention incorporate specific design features which facilitate the flow of comparatively viscous fluids with reduced flow resistance and hence reduced pressure losses, as well as providing enhanced structural integrity to better withstand such operating pressures and forces while providing improved reliability. The combination of pre-compression and comparatively higher operating pressures ensures that the comparatively higher viscosity fluid will be delivered to the nozzle with a pressure (and hence a velocity) that is comparatively high and within a comparatively narrow range. This in turn ensures a finely-dispersed product spray with a comparatively narrow range of particle sizes, under a wide range of actuation circumstances.

Abstract: A dynamic seal is provided between a rotatable ball control member and a noise attenuator in a fluid control valve. In one embodiment a noise attenuator is rigidly clamped in the valve body and a floating, spring biased seal is provided in the attenuator and facing the ball. A bi-directional fluid control valve is provided with two rigidly mounted noise attenuators each having a floating, spring biased ball seal. In a second embodiment a noise attenuator is floating, spring biased towards the ball and includes an annular seal retained in the attenuator. Pressure balancing the fluid flow pressure and the spring bias enables substantially zero seal engagement with the ball during ball rotation, while enabling a reliable seal of the ball in the shut-off valve position.

Date Nov. 21, 1996A local oscillator noise rejection circuit is described which has a resistance between the output of an MES FET/HEMT and ground. This resistance has the effect of introducing a self-biasing arrangement to the oscillator circuit which means that when there is any increase in current through the MES PET/HEMT device, the voltage drop across the resistance also increases. Since the gate is tied to ground via a low resistance (51  OMEGA ) this leads to an increased negative gate to source voltage which causes the device to "pinch-off" slightly which, in turn, gives a reduction in the current level through the device. This arrangement therefore has the effect of reducing any current surges within the device and produces an improvement in phase noise. In a preferred arrangement a 30 Ohm resistor is located between the source of the FET/HEMT and ground, the resistor being located in series within the printed circuit inductor and the output line. With the aforementioned modified circuit, an improvement in the phase noise performance has been measured from the standard circuit which gave a figure of -64 dBc. At 10 KHz. After modification using the above mentioned circuit a figure of -76 dBc. At 10 KHz. was obtained which is approximately a 16 times improvement.
