Patent EP-0671956-A1 (EP)
Inventor: COLVIN RICHARD R
IPC: A61L2/28
Filed: 1993-05-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus assures effective operation of sterilizers, especially those of the pre-vacuum type. The apparatus performs two principal methods: (1) testing for completeness of air removal from a sterilizer chamber, including the re-entrainment of air in the load due to air leaks in the chamber, vacuum system and/or steam system, and (2) the testing for effective sterilization conditions. Also, performed are three secondary methods: (i) identifying of causes of sterilizer faults, (ii) providing of preventive maintenance procedures (an Early Warning) (iii) identifying of procedures to correct sterilization faults in progress. These methods are illustrated for the two principal modes of operation: (a) the performance of a Bowie and Dick type test, as is usually done on a once-a-day basis; and (b) monitoring the sterilizer during load conditions.

Abstract: The combing machine contains a can plate (21) and, above this, a coiler (19). A fibre sliver (F) coming from a drawframe of the combing machine is brought forward on a conveyor band (8). The conveyor band (8) runs around a first deflecting roller, which is arranged at the drawframe and which is driven jointly with this, and around a second deflecting roller (11) which is arranged above the coiler (19). Furthermore, a pair of calender rollers (14, 15) is arranged above the coiler (19). The second deflecting roller (11), which is driven by the running conveyor band (8), is coupled to one of the calender rollers (14) via a toothed belt (17). There is therefore no need for any separate drive connections to the calender rollers (14, 15). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and method for transferring an article (20) from one conveyor (30) to another (40) and a printing system incorporating the same. The apparatus includes an array of endless conveyorized strips (11) carried by a roller (12) and a relatively rigid member (13), the roller and the member being positioned within the strips, and moving means (14) operatively associated with the roller for effecting its rotation and hence movement of the strips (11). The apparatus is positioned between and in cooperation with adjacent ends (31,41) of successive conveyors (30,40) of a printing system. The surface (15) of each strip is charactarized by a series of upwardly extending projections (16), each projection being of relatively small diametar in relation to its length. The roller (12) is adjacent to the exit end (17) of the apparatus and has disks (18) positioned longitudinally between the strips (11) and coaxially with and about the roller (12) at intervals across its width. The disks diameters are sufficiently greater than that of the roller as to extend above the projections (16), lifting the article (20) from the projections as it passes over the roller (12) and carrying it to the other conveyor (40).

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved process for improving the adhesion between a sintered material substrate and a diamond layer deposited thereon by removal of the sintered material-bonding phase from the substrate surface before the diamond coating. For this purpose, the process according to the invention uses a device such as is usually employed in a different design for the CVD application of diamond layers. In this case, the process parameters are modified as compared with those of conventional diamond coating in such a way that binder metal is evaporated out of a very narrow edge zone of the substrate surface, namely by utilising the heat of reaction from the recombination of previously dissociated hydrogen gas directly at the substrate surface.

Abstract: In an air discharge nozzle 9 provided at a lower end of an air path in the body of the air-conditioning equipment, blown air is guided in the left/right direction by a plurality of guide vanes 8 pivotally held by the nozzle. The guide vanes are controlled so that when they are inclined, to deflect the air, the angle of inclination of each guide vane becomes larger as the guide vane is closer to the end of the set of guide vanes in the direction towards which the air is to be deflected. As a result the air flow is controlled accurately in the left/right direction, so that the air flow will reach the intended location.

Abstract: A probe (10, 110) for measuring fluid velocity through a conduit (61, 161) has a pitot tube (1, 101) connected to a multiple channel cylindrical conduit (14, 114) which is placed within a tubular housing (12, 112), Drive motors are provided to permit precise rotation and longitudinal movement of the cylindrical conduit (14, 141) and attached pitot tube (1, 101) in the conduit (61, 161), typically a stack or duct. At least one differential pressure gauge is connected to the cylindrical conduit (14, 114). A computer (30) directs movement of the cylindrical conduit (14, 114), receives differential pressure and static pressure readings from the differential pressure gauge and utilizes that data to calculate flow of the fluid through the conduit. The device is particularly useful for measuring stack gas flow which flow can be utilized to determine emissions of pollutants.

Abstract: A seat body (3) forming a backrest portion (2) is made arcuately movable with respect to a base (6) by a relative movement guiding mechanism (7) which is formed by combination of an arcuately extending guide rail (8) and a guide member (9) moving along the same. A seat portion (5) is rotatably mounted on the seat body (3) and a coupling member (30) is made to engage with a linear portion (11) of the guide rail (8), thereby maintaining the seat portion (5) in a substantially constant inclination regardless of movement of the seat body (3). Thus, it is possible to maintain the seat portion (5) in a substantially horizontal state also when the angle of the backrest portion (2) is adjusted, while making the backrest portion (2) reclinable without interfering with a backrest portion of an original seat provided in an automobile. Thus, a child is not forced into an uncomfortable position in an inclined state of the backrest portion (2).
