Abstract: Quick connection of a tube (2) capable of being fitted into a socket (1), the said tube having, at a given distance from its end (2b), a shoulder (2c), the socket includes an annular sealing gasket (3) intended to come into contact with the tube in the zone situated between its end and the shoulder. A member (4) for locking the tube is fitted into the socket, the said member being immobilised axially relative to the socket and elastically deformable in the radial direction between an inactive configuration and an active configuration in which it bears on the shoulder (2c). A sleeve (5) is mounted so that it can slide inside the socket (1) between a first position and a second position remote from the first towards the inside of the socket. The sleeve has a limit stop (5b) located in the path of the shoulder of the tube and, in its first position, holds the locking member (4) in its inactive configuration, while the locking member is released when the sleeve is in its second position.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of making an engineering ferrous metal comprising the steps of adding to liquid engineering ferrous metal solid alloy carbide particles and thereafter permitting the ferrous metal to solidify. The alloy carbide particles are coated with iron or an iron alloy to allow wetting to occur between the powder and the liquid ferrous metal and the particles have a density which matches that of the ferrous metal to provide a uniform distribution of the carbide particles in the ferrous metal. A roll may be made having at least a shell made of metal by such a method by centrifugal casting or electroslag remelting. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour la déposition simultanée en phase gazeuse par procédé chimique et assistée au plasma d'un film mince sur une bande allongée d'un substrat sur plusieurs zones individuelles de déposition séparées dans l'espace (12). Afin d'effectuer ladite déposition simultanée, la bande de matière du substrat (10) est positionnée afin d'assumer un trajet en serpentin à travers une enceinte (1) à pression réduite. En utilisant un applicateur linéaire allongé (4) comme source d'énergie à micro-ondes, il est possible d'obtenir simultanément un taux élevé de déposition uniforme de matière du film mince sur une pluralité de grandes zones du matériau du substrat en bande sans devoir chauffer ladite bande à une température supérieure à son point de fusion. Dans un mode préférentiel de réalisation, la bande de matière de substrat est constituée d'une résine plastique synthétique de transmission des micro-ondes de basse température, et le film mince déposé sur la bande de substrat forme un revêtement-barrière qui empêche la diffusion d'oxygène.

Date Jul. 7, 1994A pump impeller is adapted for rotatably mounting within a volute of a centrifugal slurry pump. The pump impeller has an intake opening that is formed coaxially with an axis of rotation of the impeller. The impeller also has an outlet opening that extends about the periphery of the impeller and blades that extend generally radially between the intake opening and the outlet opening. The region between adjacent blades defines a respective blade passage through which slurry flows upon rotation of the impeller. The impeller is dimensioned relative to the volute so that the ratio of the blade passage width at the entry of the blade passage to the blade width passage at the periphery of the impeller is in a range of 1.5 to 1.7, and the ratio of the diameter of the impeller to the blade passage width is in a range of 9.3 to 10.2 and that the ratio of the impeller diameter to the width of the volute is in a range of 3.8 to 4.2. This dimensioning enables the pump to operate in a specific speed range of 22 to 30.
