Patent FI-940113-A (FI)
Inventor: TIITINEN PEKKA KALEVI
IPC: B60C/
Filed: 1994-01-11
Abstract: A system for improving the road-gripping power of a car or lorry tyre, minimising the risks in slippery road conditions by automatically extending spikes or other skid-prevention means from the tyre's friction surface, and by concealing them in the tyre so as to avoid damaging the road's asphalt surfacing when there is no need to use them to improve friction. Each tyre functions either independently to suit the prevailing driving conditions, or in an either-or-/both- and-connection with the central control member. Manual control can also be considered. A.N.J.-IH automation operates according to a decision process based on an inertia gyro transmitter and a microprocessor, also on the actual triggering of the function and retraction of the spikes or other skid-prevention means by the use of a pressure generator arranged in the wheel hub. <IMAGE>

IPC: F24F5/00
Filed: 1994-01-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a method concerning a thermal energy distribution system, and a thermal energy distribution system. In the invention, heating energy absorbed into a heat carrier and concentratedly generated for heating of buildings (4) is distributed by means of one pipe or one group of pipes (1) to heating devices (6) arranged in the buildings and, correspondingly, cooling energy concentratedly generated by a cooling aggregate (16-19) is distributed by a second pipe or group of pipes (3) to cooling devices (5) in the buildings. To lower the costs, the cooling aggregate (16-19) is arranged to be condensated by return liquid obtained from a return pipe (2) of a heating energy/cooling energy transferring system, and at least part of the liquid used for the condensation is arranged to be supplied directly back to the return pipe (2).

Title: Apparatus for de-greasing and cleaning articles of metal by means of a volatile solvent
IPC: C23G5/04
Filed: 1934-01-11
Abstract: In an apparatus for degreasing metal articles with a volatile solvent, in which the articles are immersed in liquid or vaporous solvent contained in a washing chamber and then raised to a drying zone in the upper part of the chamber, the articles are contained in carriers supported at the ends of cranks which pivot about a rotatable horizontal axis actuated externally to the apparatus.  A washing tank 1, Fig. 1, is provided with a condenser 5 and a heated sump 4 containing a solvent whose vapour is heavier <PICT:0415639/III/1> <PICT:0415639/III/2> than air such as carbon tetrachloride, trichlorethylene or ethylene perchloride.  Metal articles are contained in a carrier 11 mounted in a frame 10 which is connected by arms 9 to a horizontal axis 6.  The axis is rotated and the carrier 11 is swung downwards into the solvent vapour zone, and then upwards by means of gearing 8 and a crank handle 7.  While in the raised or lowered position the carrier may be rotated on its own axis by sprocket and chain gear 12, 13 operated by a crank handle 14. The washing chamber is closed by a two-part sliding lid 2 which when opened uncovers ports 15 through which the upper layer of air containing solvent vapour is drawn off by a blower through the chambers 16 into an exhaust pipe 17.  The lower part of the washing chamber 18, Fig. 3, is divided into two chambers 19, 20 for used and clean solvent respectively, solvent flowing from the chamber 20 over the partition 33 into the chamber 19.  Solvent flows from the chamber 19 through a pipe 34 into a still from which hot vapours pass through a pipe 36 to two perforated pipes 37 immersed in the clean solvent. Solvent vapours rise in the chamber, and the solvent condensed by cooling tubes 22 is collected in a trough and conveyed to the chamber 20.  The articles contained in the carrier 27 are first immersed in used solvent in chamber 19 and then in the clean solvent in the chamber 20, from which the carrier 27 is returned to the upper drying zone.  The washing chamber is closed by a two-part cylindrical lid 29 which in the open position forms with a fixed cylindrical plate 30 a closed chamber shut off from the washing chamber and surrounding the carrier 27.  Suction chambers 31 which draw off the upper layer of air containing solvent vapour are provided.  In a modification the articles are first immersed in cold solvent and then in solvent vapour.

Title: Process for improving the action of caustic lyes on cellulosic textiles and textile materials
IPC: D06M11/38
Filed: 1949-01-14
Abstract: In the treatment of cellulosic textiles or textile material with caustic lyes of mercerizing strength, i.e. aqueous solutions of sodium or potassium hydroxide containing over 12 per cent by weight of caustic alkali, the caustic lye bath, or water used for rinsing the material immediately after its treatment with such bath, contains the chlorite of an alkali metal or of an alkaline earth metal.  The textile material may be cotton, linen, mixed cotton-linen, or mixtures thereof with rayon or jute, and the proportion of chlorite when added to the caustic lye is preferably between 0.2 and 5 grams per litre of lye.  The cellulosic material may be immersed in a bath of the chlorite and, while still impregnated with chlorite, may then be introduced into the caustic lye bath.  In the example a pure linen fabric bleached with chlorite is immersed for about 20 seconds under tension in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide having a gravity of 30 degrees B<\>e. and containing 0.5 gram/litre of sodium chlorite and maintained at 60 DEG  C., rinsed in water at 60 DEG  C. and then as usual with dilute acid followed by water.  It is stated that undesirable chemical action of caustic lyes on cellulosic fibres is reduced by the use of chlorites according to the invention, that raw or partially bleached linen can thereby be mercerized while reducing by half the usual losses in weight and improving the sheen, elasticity and tensile strength of the finished product. Specifications 546,529 and 549,678 and Belgian Specification 475,230 are referred to.

Patent GB-351024-A (GB)
Title: Automatic change speed gear
IPC: F16H61/02
Filed: 1930-01-13
Abstract: 351,024. Controlling change speed gearing; centrifugal governors. FORICHON, A., 70 bis, Avenue de Suffren, Paris. Jan. 13, 1930, No. 1219. Convention date, Jan. 12, 1929. [Class 80 (ii).] A two-speed epicyclic gear suitable for motor vehicles is controlled by moving a friction clutch 10 by direct magnetic pull which is set up by an electric switch operated by a governor driven by the driving shaft 1. The governor weights ware nearer their axis of rotation than are the pivots p of their supporting links 1, and act directly on a disc muff 25 against a spring 28 to close and open switch 27. This governor acts at different speeds according to whether the speed is increasing or decreasing. When switch 27 is open, clutch 10 is held by spring 11 against a brake cone 12. Sun gear 8a is then held fast, and shaft 7 is driven at reduced speed through planets 6, which it carries, rolling on gear 8a, being driven from internal gear 3a on member 3 carried by driving flywheel 2. When speed of shaft 1 rises, the governor closes switch 27 so as to make member 3 a magnet. This attracts cone 10 into engagement with its own coned surface 3b, so that the gearing turns solid at high speed. Depression of accelerator pedal 30 stresses further the governor control spring 28, so that the speed of the engine at which the automatic speed change takes place is increased. A pedal 35 is provided for disconnecting the drive at any time. It disconnects the low speed by directly moving cone 10 to neutral, and the high speed by breaking the electric circuit at 31 so that spring 11 returns cone 10 to neutral. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 (3) (a) describes an arrangement with no electromagnetic gear. The governor weights apply axial thrust directly to a disc flange on the sliding cone 10. This two-speed gear can be used to replace the usual clutch between the engine and the gearbox. This subject-matter does not appear in the Specification as accepted.
