Title: Apparatus and method for controlling the consistency of a flow of stock solution in a papermaking machine
Inventor: TORNELLO FABRIZIO
IPC: D21F1/02
Filed: 2005-02-03
Granted: 2010-12-09
Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for controlling the consistency of a flow of stock solution flowing from a header to a slice lip of a headbox of a papermaking machine so that the cross machine direction consistency profile of a resultant web is controlled. The apparatus includes a flow channel which is disposed within the headbox between the header and the slice lip. The flow channel has an upstream and a downstream end such that the flow of the stock solution is in a flow direction from the upstream end towards the downstream end of the flow channel. The flow channel includes a primary channel having a first and a second extremity such that the flow of the stock solution is through the primary channel from the first extremity to the second extremity of the primary channel. A supply channel has a first and a second end and is disposed downstream relative to the primary channel for the flow therethrough of a supply portion of the flow of the stock solution. The second end of the supply channel is connected to the slice lip so that the supply portion of the flow of the stock solution flows to the slice lip. A recirculation channel has a first and a second termination, the recirculation channel being disposed downstream relative to the primary channel for the flow therethrough of a recirculation portion of the flow of the stock solution. The second termination of the recirculation channel is connected to the header so that the recirculation portion of the flow of the stock solution flows to the header. A generator is disposed adjacent to the primary channel for generating ultrasonic waves within the flow of the stock solution flowing through the primary channel. The ultrasonic waves move fiber particles suspended within the stock solution for controlling the consistency of the stock solution flowing through the primary channel. Also, an ultrasound absorber is disposed adjacent to the primary channel such that the flow of the stock solution flows in the flow direction within a region disposed between the generator and the absorber so that in operation of the apparatus, when the stock solution is flowing within the region, the fiber particles suspended within the stock solution are deviated from the flow direction. The arrangement is such that the consistency of the stock solution flowing from the primary channel through the supply channel is different from the consistency of the stock solution flowing from the primary channel through the recirculation channel so that the consistency of the supply portion of the stock solution flowing through the slice lip is controlled thereby controlling the cross machine direction consistency profile of the resultant web.

Title: Creating templates of offline resources
Inventor: ARAUJO JR NELSON S
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2007-02-21
Granted: 2011-12-08
Abstract: Implementations of the present invention allow software resources to be duplicated efficiently and effectively while offline. In one implementation, a preparation program receives an identification of a software resource, such as a virtual machine installed on a different volume, an offline operating system, or an application program. The preparation program also receives an indication of customized indicia that are to be removed from the software resource. These indicia can include personalized information as well as the level of software updates, security settings, user settings or the like. Upon execution, the preparation program redirects the function calls of the preparation program to the software resource at the different volume (or even the same volume) while the software resource is not running. The preparation program thus can thus creates a template of the software resource in a safe manner without necessarily affecting the volume at which the preparation program runs.
