Abstract: Procédé en continu pour la fusion rapide de toute une série de métaux ferreux et non ferreux de première fusion et recyclés, selon lequel l'introduction de la charge non fondue et, partant, les impératifs de chaleur de fusion sont répartis le long d'une zone de réaction allongée gaz-solide-liquide dans un four rotatif, en fonction de la répartition de la chaleur disponible pour effectuer la fusion. Dans le cas de charges sous forme de métaux à particules de petite taille, de flux et de réactifs d'addition, cette répartition est mise en oeuvre par traversée du jet de tuyère, dirigé pour pénétrer dans le bain de métal et de scories à partir d'une lance d'injection de solides, successivement vers l'avant et vers l'arrière, et dans le cas de charges constituées de particules grossières, par traversée de l'évacuation d'un transporteur oscillant.

Inventor: MAGEE TIMOTHY D
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2002-03-20
Abstract: A personal computer that enters sleep mode to conserve electrical energy is responsive to a proximity detector and a proximity timer. As long as a user is near the computer, as determined by the proximity detector, the computer is controlled by an activity timer, and enters sleep mode upon being idle for a predetermined period of time. When the proximity detector determines that the user has left the computer unattended, the proximity detector starts the proximity timer. When the proximity timer expires, the computer enters sleep mode. Because the proximity timer operates only when the user has left the computer unattended, the proximity timer may be set to expire earlier than the activity timer. Consequently, the computer may enter sleep mode earlier than would otherwise be possible; and thereby consumes less energy.
