Patent NZ-208658-A (NZ)
Title: Two-stage batch liquefaction process and apparatus therefor
Inventor: DEMAREST H M
IPC: C03B3/02
Filed: 1984-06-25
Abstract: Liquefying of pulverulent batch materials (e.g., glass batch) is carried out in two stages. The first stage (10) utilizes extended gas/solid contact to heat the materials to an intermediate temperature, and may recover waste heat. The second stage (12) rapidly liquefies the material in a cavity lined with the batch material, and may employ substantially nitrogen-free heat sources. Another aspect involves maintaining a wet condition in the first stage to entrap particulates.

Title: Load bearing apparatus with strut bearing axially against abutment of load cell and movable laterally at housing aperture
Inventor: BOULT BRIAN FREDERICK
IPC: G01G17/08
Filed: 1994-03-03
Abstract: Load measuring apparatus particularly but not solely for the weighing of animals is supported on load-bearing feet. Each load bearing foot provides an electrical signal indicating the load thereon and the sum of the electrical signals indicates the total load. Each load bearing foot has a strut (1) which is in use attached to the load, housing (2) which rests on a load-bearing surface and a load cell (3) which is fixed within housing (2) and transmits the load force carried by strut (1) to housing (2) and thence to the load-bearing surface. The strut (1) passes through an aperture (7) in housing (2) to bear against load cell (3) which is in the central cavity (5) of the housing (2). The strut (1) is able to move towards load cell (3), but is substantially restricted from moving away from the load cell (3), and preferably is able to have some rotational movement relative to base (4). The load-bearing feet overcome the bulkiness and expensiveness of prior art weighing systems and are portable, inexpensive and accurate in use. <IMAGE>
