Filed: 2001-01-29
Granted: 2004-04-01
Abstract: The apparatus comprises a submerged entry nozzle (6) having outlets in the main casting plane (P) which differ in their direction of output and fall within two categories (7, 8), said nozzle being associated with two inductors (14, 15) opposite each other on each broad face (22) of the casting mold forming a gap which surrounds the nozzle and producing a traversing magnetic field covering the outlets of at least one category (7), means being provided for adjusting the intensity of the field or for moving it so as to be able to change the distribution between the outlets of the total flow of molten metal. In particular, implementing the invention makes it possible to adjust at any time that fraction of the metal flow which is directed toward the free surface (9) with respect to that, main, fraction directed toward the bottom of the mold. Advantageously, the invention applies to the continuous casting of steel slabs.

Granted: 1998-03-05
Abstract: A method for producing a pultrusion product having a variable cross-section using a specially adapted temperature controllable pultrusion die includes the steps of pulling reinforcing fibers which have been impregnated with a heat curable thermosetting polymeric resin composition through a temperature controllable die, heating the temperature controllable die to a temperature sufficient to effect curing of the thermosetting resin, cooling the temperature controllable die to a temperature which is sufficiently low to prevent any significant curing of thermosetting resin passing through the pultrusion die, pulling the cured material and a predetermined length of uncured material from the die, reshaping the uncured material, and curing the reshaped material. The reshaping step can be used to provide off-sets, flanges, bosses and the like. The method and associated apparatus of the invention provide a relatively simple and inexpensive way of producing fiber-reinforced thermoset plastics having a variable cross-section selected intervals along the length of the article.

Title: Accurate cryogenic liquid dispenser
Inventor: DRUBE THOMAS K
IPC: F17C9/00
Filed: 2001-07-04
Granted: 2005-03-03
Abstract: A system for dispensing cryogenic liquid to a use device includes a bulk storage tank providing LNG to a sump containing a meter submerged in LNG. A temperature probe is also submerged in the LNG. A dispensing line is positioned between the meter and dispensing hose and includes a dispensing valve. A drain line bypasses the dispensing valve and features a check valve so that LNG trapped in the hose after dispensing is returned to the sump due to pressurization by ambient heat. A capacitance probe is submerged in the LNG in the sump and provides a dielectric that is compared by a microprocessor with the dielectric for pure methane at the same temperature to determine the purity of the LNG. An approximate linear relation between density and dielectric may be used to determine density and mass flow for the LNG from the measured dielectric. Alternatively, a density compensation factor based upon the dielectrics may be calculated and applied to the density of pure methane to obtain the density and mass flow of the LNG. A further alternative embodiment substitutes a compensating meter for the capacitor and the equations for the resulting two meters may be solved to determine density and mass flow for the LNG.

Granted: 1988-05-05
Abstract: A pipe coupling for coupling together pipe ends of pipes to be interconnected comprises a clampable housing approximately in the shape of a tightening clamp or collar for being clamped about the pipe ends such that tightening of the clampable housing causes the housing to contract or draw together around the pipes to be connected. The housing possesses annular or ring-shaped, inwardly flexed flanges at its end faces. A sealing gasket made from an elastic material such as synthetic rubber is enclosed in the housing and possesses a substantially C-shaped axial cross-sectional configuration. Clamping rings provided on the inner sides of the sealing gasket are capable of being reduced in diameter and supported in axial direction on the housing. These clamping rings are provided on their inner surfaces with claws or claw-like elements. To limit the penetration depth of these claws, especially in soft pipe material, the substantially cylindrical clamping rings are supported in the housing by their outer jacket surfaces on the inner edges of the housing flanges and by respective stop members as well as respective substantially conical spring rings. The claws of the clamping rings comprise teeth protruding inwardly from the inner jacket surfaces of the clamping rings towards the centers of the pipe ends. These teeth possess convex backs arched away from the center portion of the pipe coupling and substantially flat front surfaces which extend into clamping ring recesses located substantially directly before these front surfaces.
