Patent EP-0411134-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUNAKUBO TSUTOMU
IPC: F04D29/04
Filed: 1989-11-15
Abstract: This invention relates to a turbo-blower for laser comprising a shaft (26) for supporting a turbo-blade (16) at its tip, a pair of bearings (19, 20) for supporting the shaft (26) and motors (17, 18) for rotating the shaft (26). Lubrication of the bearings (19, 20) is done by grease and grease reservoirs (32, 33) are formed adjacent to the bearing (19, 20). An inner race, a retainer, a rolling member, and the like, rotate with the rotation of the shaft (26). This rotation generates a centrifugal force acting on the grease inside the bearings (19, 20) and the grease scatters from the bearings (19, 20). The scattering grease is received by the grease reservoirs (32, 33). The grease in the grease reservoirs (32, 33) flows gradually into the bearing (19.20) due to its viscosity. Since such grease reservoirs are disposed and the grease is replenished properly, filling of the grease becomes unnecessary.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of iron-containing oil sludge for further processing is described, wherein the oil sludge is mixed together with coal and plastic, especially plastic wastes, in a screw press, kneaded and pressed, and a bonded, solid product which can be further processed is extruded. The mixture to be fed to the screw press has the following constituents:  50% to 60% of oil sludge,  30% to 35% of coal and  5% to 10% of plastic. By means of the process, iron-containing oil sludges can be prepared for further processing in such a way that they can be used again. The resulting, further processable product leaves the screw press in the form of pellets or rods. These can very easily be transported to a further processing plant, such as a metallurgical plant, where they are smelted.

Abstract: A piston (1) for axial piston machines which is formed as a hollow body with an axial hollow chamber (4) into which an insert (6) is introduced and axially secured by means of a flange (8) of the wall (11) of the hollow body, enveloping the insert, which overlaps the outer end face of the insert, is to be designed in such a way that, whilst ensuring simple and cost-effective manufacture, stable securing of the filler piece and stable formation of the piston shaft is achieved. This is achieved in that the flange (8) is formed by pressing the over-dimensioned wall (11) of the hollow body into a plurality of opposing recesses or into an annular recess (12) of the insert (6) and cutting off the piston (1) thus formed approximately in the area of the recesses or the annular recess (12).

Title: Chemiluminescent lighting element
Inventor: LADYJENSKY JACQUES
IPC: F21K2/06
Filed: 1990-05-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a chemiluminescent article, which comprises a tube made of a flexible, light-transmitting and chemically stable material, closed at both of its ends, and which comprises at least two compartments which are filled with liquids which produce chemiluminescent light when mixed. The tube contains, between the ends, an internal diaphragm or disk, which separates the tube into said compartments. The diaphragm or disk has approximately a flat circular shape, with a cross-section which is approximately rectangular in profile, and is placed transversely with respect to the axis of the tube. The edge is in continuous contact with the interior of the wall of the tube. The elasticity, the external diameters and the internal diameters of the tube and, the diameter and the thickness of the diaphragm are selected in such a manner that the diaphragm can be tilted by simple manual pressure against the external walls of the tube, which pressure imparts a tilting torque to said diaphragm or disk and allows mixing of the contents of the compartments.

Abstract: Un stimulateur cardiaque intracorporel programmable (10) qui fonctionne sur la base du rythme auriculaire comprend des moyens qui empêchent que le coeur (12) ne soit stimulé à une vitesse limite supérieure pendant des périodes prolongées. Le stimulateur stimule le coeur à un rythme qui suit le rythme auriculaire jusqu'à la vitesse limite supérieure du stimulateur, puis continue à stimuler le coeur à cette vitesse limite supérieure, tout en continuant à surveiller le rythme auriculaire. Si le rythme auriculaire surveillé dépasse une deuxième vitesse limite supérieure, on considère qu'une arythmie auriculaire rapide ou tachycardie est présente, et le stimulateur passe automatiquement de son mode momentané de fonctionnement à un autre mode de fonctionnement, afin d'essayer d'arrêter ou d'interrompre l'accélération auriculaire. Des conducteurs (14 et 16) transmettent à des électrodes (15 et 17) des impulsions de stimulation générées par un générateur (18) d'impulsions auriculaires et par un générateur (20) d'impulsions ventriculaires. Un système de commande (26) génère des signaux de déclenchement qui sont transmis au générateur (18) d'impulsions auriculaires et au générateur (20) d'impulsions ventriculaires par deux lignes (32 et 34) de transmission de signaux.
