Inventor: MARCHETTI RUGGERO
IPC: F23L17/16
Filed: 2003-12-22
Abstract: It is described a forced draught type CM wall boiler, in particular an open room type (Bf) or
sealed room type (C), equipped with a draught fan (7) and adapted to be connected
exclusively to flues (2.2) permitted for the evacuation of flue gas under pressure. According to
the invention, said CM wall boiler is further adapted to be connected to flues (2.1.) for flue
gas evacuation in pressure drop, the boiler being equipped with means (AR, 5, 6, 7; 11, 11.1,
6.1) adapted to maintain the flue gas entry pressure in the flue (2.1) equal to the atmospheric
pressure even in the presence of unforeseen disturbance or circumstances. 
     According to a first variant of the invention, this can be obtained with the application of an
antirefouler AR device that necessarily maintains the flue gas pressure at the same level as the
environmental pressure. 
     According to a second variant, particularly useful for sealed room wall boilers, the fan speed
(7) is maintained at values that will not generate residual pressure at the wall boiler outlet; this
is obtained through an electronic control unit on the wall boiler, that receives pressure signals
from an electronic pressure switch (11) installed at the connection to the flue (2.1).

Abstract: The procedure consists of initially introducing a reinforcing preform (20) into a mold, followed by the sides of the composition material (30) (Low Profile Sheet Molding Compound - LP SMC), placed in the first part of the mold with a predetermined area of coverage and thickness.  The preform has mechanical rigidity properties higher than the SMC, and can be of a high performance SMC, a pre-impregnated fabric based on glass or carbon fibres, or a metal structure made from steel, stainless steel or aluminum. The first part of the mold is then covered by a second part, which has a local zone of increased thickness, shaped to form a cavity (30D) in the molded component following compression of the two parts of the mold under heat. The resulting molded component has a reduced thickness in a localized zone (30A), with the surface area and initial thickness of the composition material sides (30) designed to create a partial or total over-molding of the reinforcing preform from the plastic flow of the composition material from the sides when compressed under heat.

Abstract: Device having a cover to be positioned on a vessel with an interior wall. A shaft
extends through a transverse passageway in the cover. A basket for holding a
flavoring substance is mounted to the end of the shaft. The basket can thus be raised
and lowered within the vessel through action of the shaft. A continuous lip of flexible
polymer surrounds the periphery of the basket, for engagement with the interior wall
of the vessel. With flavoring substance in the basket, liquid is poured into the vessel
in such a way as to retain air in the space between the basket and the bottom of the
vessel. The basket is pushed downwards, causing at least part of the air retained in
the space between the basket and the bottom portion of the vessel to displace the
flavoring substance while the air rises within the vessel, resulting in improved
infusion of the flavoring substance.

Abstract: A method for detecting objects on or in the ground, comprising the steps of transmitting
one or more acoustic signals to the ground, so that, after reflection, at least
a first and second signal are received with a detectable delay time difference,
and detecting a delay time difference between first and second reflection signal.
The method is characterized in that it comprises the steps of setting up the sources
and/or receiving units in a series at a fixed height above the ground, calculating
a delay time difference from a path length difference of the reflection signals,
on the assumption that the reflection signals have been reflected by the ground
surface, with the ground surface being modeled according to a predetermined
geometry, and deriving the presence of an object on or in the ground by comparing
the detected delay time difference with the calculated time difference.
