Patent EP-0304143-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUKUSHIMA REIZOU
IPC: C08F2/44
Filed: 1988-04-21
Abstract: A water-absorptive resin, which comprises a cationic crosslinked polymer comprising at least 10% by weight of cationic monomer unit(s) and containing a magnetic material therein, is used as a microbial carrier in a fluidized bed biodisposer. This water-absorptive resin can serve as a microbial carrier when merely introduced into a liquor containing a microorganism. Thus seeding can be readily carried out by using the same. Further the carrier is magnetic and thus can be readily recovered. In addition, the specific gravity of the resultant polymer gel, i.e. the resin which has absorbed water, and acting as the carrier, is closely similar to that of the filtrate. Therefore the polymer gel can be fluidized by simply stirring the same slightly by, for example, air diffusion.

IPC: B66F9/18
Filed: 1988-07-27
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for controlling the level of clamping pressure applied by a clamp (14) to a load (16). A pump (20), whose output is controlled by a normally open valve (34), establishes an initial level of clamping pressure. Through the use of a number of controllable fluid discharge means (50, 52, 54), this pressure is automatically increased in increments depending upon the resistance of the load to the clamping pressure exerted. In a preferred embodiment, the controllable fluid discharge means include discharge cylinders (58, 70, 90) that contain predetermined volumes of fluid dischargeable by free-floating pistons (62, 82, 92) residing therein. The outputs of the discharge cylinders are controlled by pressure-responsive valves (72, 92) to produce the desired relationship between clamp pressure and load rigidity.

Abstract: To prevent the absorption of the retrogradely soluble crystal seeds by the hydrothermal growth solution at the start of growth or to protect the grown crystals on shutting down the growth process, and also to reach the thermodynamic growth equilibrium as rapidly as possible, it is proposed that the growth solution is digested outside the growth container (1), presaturated and preheated to a temperature near the saturation point, that the hot growth solution is introduced into the preheated growth container (1) containing crystal seeds for the actual growth process and is heated further to a temperature at which crystal growth starts, and also that the hot growth solution is rapidly removed from the growth container after the growth process has been terminated. …<IMAGE>…

Inventor: SONDEREGGER HANS CONRAD
IPC: G01P1/00
Filed: 1989-02-23
Abstract: A plate-shaped sensor element, particularly for installation in pressure, force or acceleration pick-ups, has an essentially rectangular configuration with a pair of oppositely located holding areas (8) and a central transverse-beam-like area (1) which is formed between the free end faces of the sensor element and connected to the holding areas (8) via torsion-elastic webs (10). On both sides of the transverse-beam-like area (1), slots (7) are provided creating the torsion-elastic webs (10). The sensor element is clamped in, only along the holding areas (8), in a pick-up base body (5). As a result, thermally or mechanically produced distortions of the pick-up base body (5) cannot have any effect on the transverse-beam-like area (1) of the sensor element. The transverse-beam-like area (1) is subjected to an essentially uniform bending when stressed in the centre so that it can be covered with strain gauge elements (2) in a manner which is effective for measuring techniques essentially along its entire length, on one or preferably on both sides. The plate-shaped form of the sensor element allows the latter to be positioned accurately and held in a simple manner with respect to the force transmission element (4) and the overload protection stop. Conductor paths, compensation resistors and connecting lugs directly applied to the sensor plate allow operationally reliable extraction of the signal even at relatively high temperatures. <IMAGE>

Title: Actuating device, especially for sliding roofs, sliding-lifting roofs, window panes or the like
Inventor: SALEH HUSSAM
IPC: E05F15/692
Filed: 1989-06-21
Abstract: An actuating device (1) is disclosed which is intended in particular for sliding roofs or the like and has an electric motor (2) which, for example directly, drives a drive shaft (8) for the movement of the sliding roof (12) by means of a worm drive (4) with a worm wheel (7). In this process, a coupling piece (15; 15a; 15b; 15c) is provided which in a first position produces a positive lock for the connection fixed in terms of rotation of the worm wheel (7) of the worm drive (4) and the drive shaft (8). In a second position of the coupling piece (15; 15a; 15b; 15c) this positive lock is eliminated so that for emergency actuation the drive shaft (8) can be directly rotated, and the worm drive (4) and the drive motor (2) are decoupled. As a result, a simplified emergency actuation which can be operated with a low degree of power consumption is obtained when the drive device (1) breaks down. The coupling piece (15; 15a; 15b; 15c) can have wedge parts (16, 16a, 16a') for producing the positive-locking connection of worm wheel (7) and drive shaft (8) and guide finger (18) which are axially displaceable relative to the drive shaft (8) and to the worm wheel (7) and can be arrested in the two predetermined positions. The guide and arresting function can also be combined in one component of the coupling piece (15; 15a; 15b; 15c) together with the wedge effect for the production of the positive-locking connection of worm wheel (7) and drive shaft (8).

Abstract: A radio-frequency multipole linear accelerator (10) is made to vary its particle acceleration energy without varying the frequency of a radio-frequency power supplied to the accelerator (10) and therefore, without providing to the accelerator any means for varying the effective resonance frequency of the accelerator itself. For this purpose the voltage of the radio-frequency accleration fields developed in the accelerator is varied irrespective of the normal acceleration condition conventionally taken into consideration. To achieve the purpose the radio-frequency accelerator (10) is power-supplied by an amplification-variable radio-frequncy power amplifier (2) whose amplification is automatically controlled so as to keep the acceleration voltage in the accelerator constant by a controller (4). The controller (4) outputs a amplification control signal by comparing a small power picked up from the accelerator by a pick-up loop (5) with adesired acceleration voltage determined by a voltage setting apparatus (3). With the accelerator (10) operated at an acceleration voltage lower than the value complying with the normal acceleration condition, the particle acceleration energy shows a plurality of spectra, resulting in a change in the average acceleration energy. Further, with a magnet (6) provided at the outlet of the accelerator (10), a particle beam having a specific acceleration energy can be also taken out.
