Patent EP-0649207-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MACKENZIE RAYMOND WARREN
IPC: H02H3/33
Filed: 1994-09-07
Abstract: Ground fault trip units for circuit breakers are tested by a passive test circuit which includes a test conductor passing through the current transformer sensing coil(s), and a test switch which selectively connects the test conductor in a loop which simulates a neutral-to-ground fault. In a dormant oscillator ground fault test circuit, the test conductor loop passes through both sensing coils. When the neutral-to-ground detector is combined with a sputtering arc fault detector sharing a common sensing coil, testing of all the components is accomplished by adding an additional test circuit which injects pulses derived from the line conductor into the sensing coil secondary, or which alternatively, connects a capacitor charged from a DC supply across the sensing coil secondary. Either of these alternative test circuits generates the successive events needed to produce a sputtering arc trip.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing fuel channels made of zirconium-based alloy by combining heat treatment, warm forming and thermal sizing. Fuel channel strip material is heated to a temperature which initiates the transformation from a hexagonal close-packed to a body-centered cubic crystallographic phase and then quenched at a rate which initiates transformation to a hexagonal close-packed crystallographic phase having a texture factor f<sub>L</sub> = 0.28-0.38. The heat-treated strips are formed into fuel channel components by bending at an elevated temperature sufficient to increase the ductility of the strip material. After the fuel channel components are welded together, the fuel channel is annealed by thermal sizing.

Abstract: A buffer/brake system (12) is provided for carriers (11) used in an automated assembly system. The rear ends (17) of the carriers are equipped with a flexible ring (28) that is compressed when the queued carrier is struck by an oncoming carrier. Compression of the flexible ring engages the sidewalls (36,37) of the track support (27) that accommodates the conveyor (25) and the frictional engagement of the ring against the sidewalls of the track support act as a brake for the queued carrier. The ring also acts to absorb the shock resulting from the collision between the queued carrier and the oncoming carrier. The buffer/brake system is fully incorporated in and fixedly attached to the carrier and is not placed on the conveyor separately.

Title: Block copolymers as foam regulators in washing or cleaning agents.
Inventor: MOELLER THOMAS
IPC: C11D3/37
Filed: 1993-12-27
Abstract: The invention concerns foam regulators for use in surfactant-containing washing and cleaning agents, the aim of the invention being to improve the ease of processing of the foam regulators to free-flowing, silicon-free agents and to improve their effectiveness over a wide temperature range, both the foam-breaking system and the agent containing it maintaining their effectiveness and shelf life in mixtures with the usual ingredients of washing agents and having no adverse effects on the materials to be cleaned or on the environment. This is achieved essentially by the use, as foam regulators in the surfactant-containing washing and/or cleaning agents, of block copolymers containing glycol ether units, the block copolymers being obtained by reacting polypropylene glycol with a molecular weight in the range 1,000 to 8,000 and optionally polyethylene glycol with a molecular weight in the range 200 to 20,000 with diisocyanates and/or dicarboxylic acids having 2 to 44 C-atoms.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/IB94/00114 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 17, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 17, 1996 PCT Filed May 19, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/03033 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 2, 1995An osmotic device that, following the imbibement of water vapor, provides for the controlled release of a beneficial agent to an aqueous environment. The device comprises a hydrophilic formulation including a beneficial agent, and if needed, an osmagent, surrounded by a wall. The wall is formed at least in part of a semipermeable hydrophobic membrane having an average pore size between about 0.1  mu m and 30  mu m. The pores are substantially filled with a gas phase. The hydrophobic membrane is permeable to water in the vapor phase and the hydrophobic membrane is impermeable to an aqueous medium at a pressure less than about 100 Pa. The beneficial agent is released, for example, by osmotic pumping or osmotic bursting upon imbibement of sufficient water vapor into the device core. These devices minimize incompatibilities between the beneficial agent and ions (such as hydrogen or hydroxyl) or other dissolved or suspended materials in the aqueous medium, since contact between the beneficial agent and the aqueous medium does not occur until after the beneficial agent is released. This results from the semipermeable membrane's selective permeability for water vapor. In addition, the high water fluxes attendant with these vapor-permeable membranes facilitate the delivery of beneficial agents having low solubilities, and the delivery of high dosages of beneficial agents.

Abstract: In a process for the cascade coding and decoding of audio data, the spectral components of the relevant short-time spectrum are formed for a data block with a given number of time input data, the coded signal is formed on the basis of the spectral components of said data block using a psycho-acoustic model of the bit distribution for the spectral components by quantifying and coding, whereupon time output data are obtained by decoding at the end of each codec stage. To prevent a deterioration in the sound quality in codec cascades with a plurality of stages, an identification signal is added to the coded signal at an initial stage to mark the start of the data block, whereby the subsequent codec stages undertake the classification of the data blocks to be coded on the basis of said identification signal.
