Title: Methods and apparatus for manufacturing helical products
Inventor: MURPHY MAURICE WILLIAM
IPC: B21D11/06
Filed: 1995-11-03
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for forming devices including dead-ends and insulator ties from flat and other strips of material, as well as the devices themselves, are disclosed.

Title: Use of foam materials derived from high internal phase emulsions for insulation
Inventor: DYER JOHN COLLINS
IPC: C08F220/12
Filed: 1996-06-06
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of polymeric foam materials for insulation. These polymeric foams are prepared by polymerization of certain water-in-oil emulsions having a relatively high ratio of water phase to oil phase, commonly known in the art as high internal phase emulstions, or "HIPEs." The HIPE-derived foam materials used in the present invention comprise a generally hydrophobic, flexible, semi-flexible, or rigid nonionic polymeric foam structure of interconnected open-cells. These foam structures have: A) a specific surface area per foam volume of at least about 0.01 m2/cc; B) a density of less than about 0.05 g/cc; and C) a glass transition temperature (Tg) of between about -20 DEG  and 90 DEG  C. The foams can be used as thermal, acoustic, and/or mechanical insulation materials. In a preferred embodiment, the foams used can be prepared, packaged, and shipped in a compressed, high density state and will "spring back" upon activation (e.g. heat) to the original density of the foam.

Granted: 1996-10-23
Abstract: Mineral masses eg hardened concrete reinforced with steel rebars can be stabilised against alkali-silicate reaction and/or treated by chloride extraction or realkalisation, by passing current around an electrochemical circuit having electrodes(s) (e.g. jacketed tubular anode(s) 5, 6) and electrolyte in contact therewith located in a passageway formed in the concrete under treatment and counterelectrode(s) (eg. rebars 2), in electrochemical contact with the mineral mass and separated from the electrolyte by the mineral mass, the electrolyte containing ionic treatment material to stabilise or treat the mineral mass. The material in its ionic form is thereby made to migrate deeply into the mineral mass. The treatment material can be lithium, calcium and/or sodium ions in alkaline solution where the electrode is an anode, or nitrite where the electrode is an anode. Preferably the passageway extends deeper in the concrete than the rebars nearest the concrete surface. Electrolyte liquid can recirculate in the jacketed tubular anodes.

Title: Method for measuring a pre-load applied to a double-row rolling bearing
Inventor: MIYATA YASUHIRO
IPC: G01M13/04
Filed: 1997-10-27
Granted: 2000-06-28
Abstract: In a double-row rolling bearing, there is a uniform relationship between a pre-load applied to the bearing and a pre-load gap formed by elastic transformation of rollers and some parts related to the rollers. Therefore, to measure the pre-load is equivalent to measure the pre-load gap. Then, a pre-load gap is measured at every row of the rollers, and measured values of the pre-load gaps are added together to thereby obtain an entire pre-load gap of the bearing.
