Patent GB-201302633-D0 (GB)
Title: In-vehicle apparatus including distortion detection element
Filed: 2013-02-15
Abstract: An in-vehicle apparatus includes a plurality of operations sections, a detection section, and a cancellation section. The operation sections are configured to receive an operation by a user while driving of a vehicle and respectively include distortion detection elements that respectively transmit detection signals in accordance with loads generated due to the operation. The detection section detects the operation to the operation sections based on the detection signals. The cancellation section determines whether loads are generated in the operation sections in a same period based on the detection signals transmitted from the distortion detection elements and cancels the detection signals transmitted from the distortion detection elements in the same period when the loads are generated in the same period.

Title: Method for removing hydrogen sulfide from gas streams
Inventor: FENTON DONALD MASON
IPC: C01B17/05
Filed: 1980-10-14
Granted: 1985-06-27
Abstract: The problem of chemical consumption and undesirable formation of sulfur-containing salts inherent in conventional processes, such as the Stretford and Takahax processes, for the removal of hydrogen sulfide from gas streams are substantially reduced by the use of a novel, substantially quinone-free washing solution containing solubilized vanadium, thiocyanate ions, a carboxylate complexing agent and one or more water-soluble nonquinone aromatic compounds capable of solubilizing vanadium. Hydrogen sulfide is removed from the hydrogen sulfide-containing gas stream (12) by contact with the washing solution (14). The absorbed hydrogen sulfide is converted to elemental sulfur by reaction with the washing solution. The sulfur is separated (36) and recovered. The washing solution is oxidatively regenerated (24) before being recycled (30) to the absorber (10).

Filed: 1982-11-18
Granted: 1986-10-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to coherent poly(acetylene) films and to a method of producing such polyacetylenes. The process comprises solvent casting a solution of a polymer of the general formula (V) derived from a precursor (IV), and transforming the pre-cast, polymer (V) into a poly(acetylene) (III) film and a by-product (VI) at a temperature between 20 DEG  and 200 DEG  C. at reduced pressure. The poly(acetylene) thus formed has a substantially higher density than the poly(acetylene) polymers produced hitherto. The morphology of the poly(acetylene) produced is that of a thin, coherent solid film with no voids and, no basic structural units are visible even at a magnification of 10,000 times. The polymers also have a lower crystallinity than those produced by conventional methods.

Patent DE-3362163-D1 (DE)
Title: Rock drills
Inventor: HURT JOHN ARTHUR
IPC: E21B4/14
Filed: 1983-05-19
Granted: 1986-03-27
Abstract: The invention relates to rock drilling equipment particularly of the down-the-hole type. More particularly the invention relates to such drills incorporating a flap valve. Hitherto such drills have been designed to operate at a particular air pressure with the disadvantage that if on a particular site the compressed air availability does not suit the drill, its effectiveness is impaired. It is equally the case that conventional rock drills of the type in question operate at a relatively low cutting speed calculated on a feet per minute basis. The object of the invention is to provide a rock drill capable of considerably higher cutting speeds than has hitherto been possible and which is capable of operation over a range of air pressures. The objective is met by a construction comprising a backhead for the connection of a drill to a source of compressed air, a wear sleeve secured to the backhead and a chuck adapted to retain a drill bit secured to the opposite end of the wear sleeve, there being within the wear sleeve an inner cylinder with a valve seat at one (inner) end of the cylinder having a valve stem extending into the cylinder and a piston within the cylinder reciprocable therein from one position where the valve stem engages in a bore in the piston to a second position where a stem on the piston enters a bearing located in the cylinder and strikes a drill bit held within the chuck, the dimensions of the piston being such that the ratio of the piston head diameter to its bore diameter is in the range 9.9/9.95 to 1, the ratio of the piston head length to the piston stem length is in the range 1.5/1.52 to 1, the ratio of the piston head diameter to the piston stem diameter is in the range 1.4/1.43 to 1 and the ratio of the piston stem length to the length of the piston stem within the bearing at the point at which the piston strikes the drill bit is 1.4/1.45 to 1. It is further highly desirable that the rock drill has a valve seat wherein the ratio of the cross-sectional area of the part of the valve seat within the cylinder to the cross-sectional area of the stem of the valve seat is in the range 0.09/0.10 to 1, the ratio of the stroke length of the piston to the length of the stem of the valve seat is 0.87/0.88 to 1 and the ratio of the net internal length of the bearing to the stroke length of the piston is in the range 0.56/0.57 to 1.
