Abstract: A container filling nozzle 1 of rubber has a wide, substantially square, inlet opening and a cruciform outlet slit 4 which, in the absence of external force, is maintained closed owing to the resilience of the rubber. In the zone of the slit 4, the internal surface of the nozzle wall is formed with protrusions 5 which extend along both sides of each of the arms of the slit 4 and constitute respective thickenings. The protrusions 5 terminate short of the central ridge 6 of the V-form lips 7 of the nozzle 1. Thus, the lips 7 have their outlet zones more rigid and yet retain the necessary flexibility, so that sealing of the slit 4 is improved and yet the lips 7 can open wide.

Abstract: In a heat-insulating swirl chamber engine of this invention, a fuel is injected subsidiarily from subsidiary nozzles (2) along the inner wall surfaces (16) of swirl chambers (4) of a heat-insulating structure from the second half of an intake stroke to the first half of a compression stroke, so that a lean mixture formed in the swirl chambers (4) does not diffuse into cylinders (14), deterioration of hydrocarbon components can be prevented and moreover, since the fuel comes into contact with the wall surfaces (16) of the swirl chamber, heat energy can be recovered from the wall surfaces (16). Next, the fuel is mainly injected from main nozzles (3) into the swirl chambers (4) from the second half of the compression stroke to the first half of an expansion stroke, so that the inside of the swirl chambers (4) becomes fuel-rich due to the lean mixture formed in advance in the swirl chambers (4) and the fuel by the main injection, combustion is effected in the fuel-rich state to restrict the generation of NOx and moreover, cycle efficiency can be improved because the main combustion period is shortened.

Patent EP-0401065-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NUGUES PIERRE
IPC: H01P11/00
Filed: 1990-05-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of construction in relation to helical travelling-wave tubes in which the helix (1) is supported by dielectric supports (3) ensuring insulation, characterised in that the dielectric supports are in their turn supported by support-forming elements (4) which project relative to the lower wall of the vacuum-sealed envelope 2 surrounding the whole, towards the helix, this reducing the radial dimensions of the dielectric supports. In most embodiments, these novel support-forming elements are metallic. The invention makes it possible to greatly simplify the construction of low-dispersion delay lines for very wide band travelling-wave tubes whilst increasing the precision of assembly which it is possible to obtain. An additional advantage of the reduction in the radial dimensions of the dielectric is an improvement in the possibilities for thermal conduction from the helix to the envelope which surrounds the whole. Another advantage of this reduction is the possibility of using expensive dielectric materials such as diamond or boron nitride with face-centred cubic lattice.

Abstract: A device, for cutting an undercut in a borehole at a location spaced from the surface of a material into which the borehole is formed, includes a housing (1) with a bore therethrough and a guide sleeve (2) rotatably supported in the housing bore and having an eccentric bore therein. A bushing (3) with an eccentric bore is rotatably supported in the guide sleeve bore. A drive shaft (7) is rotatably supported in and extends through the eccentric bore of the housing and has a cutter head (9) at one end. The drive shaft (7) can be shifted from a centered position within the housing bore into an eccentric position by rotation of the bushing (3) relative to the guide sleeve (2). In the eccentric position, the cutter head (9) can penetrate into and form an undercut in the surface of the borehole. A displacable snap-in element (16) in the housing (1) prevents rotation of the guide sleeve (2). When the maximum eccentricity of the drive shaft (7) is reached, the snap-in element is disengaged from the guide sleeve by an actuating cam (3a) on the bushing (3). Subsequently, the guide sleeve (2) and the bushing (3) can be rotated together through at least 360 DEG  degrees for cutting the undercut. A blocking member (13) prevents rotation of the guide sleeve (2) during rotation of the bushing back into the center position.

Abstract: A system for continuously supplying solid silicon particles to an apparatus for growing hollow, tubular crystalline bodies. The system includes a container for storing solid silicon particles, a vibratory, pneumatic, or other device for causing the particles to exit the container through an aperture in the bottom thereof, a receiving chamber coupled with the container for receiving the particles which are dispensed from the container, and means for providing a jet of pressurized fluid in the receiving chamber. The latter is coupled with the crucible of the crystal growth apparatus via a conduit extending up through the center of the crucible. In operation, silicon particles are dispensed from the container, travel into the receiving chamber where they are entrained by the jet of pressurized fluid which drives the particles out of the receiving chamber, through the conduit, and into the crystal growth furnace where they fall back into the molten silicon supported in the crucible.

Title: Ceramics with high toughness, strength and hardness.
Inventor: MATSUMOTO ROBERT L K
IPC: C04B35/119
Filed: 1990-04-09
Abstract: A ceramic comprising a matrix of Al2O3, ZrO2 (partially or fully stabilized) or mixtures of Al2O3 and ZrO2 with strontium aluminate plate-shaped grains distributed throughout the matrix results in a ceramic with high toughness, high strength and good hardness. SrO/Al2O3 molar ratios between 0.02 and 0.20 result in in-situ formation of plate-shaped grains approximately 0.5  mu m in thickness and 5.0  mu m in breadth in tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline ceramic matrices. The in-situ formation of strontium aluminates allows high volume loading of platelets to occur and high toughness is achieved without the loss of strength. High alumina compositions have the added benefit of higher strength, lower thermal expansion, higher modulus and higher thermal conductivity than zirconia ceramics with comparable toughness.
