Patent AU-1020700-A (AU)
Title: A rotor for spraying liquids, and an exhaust-gas washer
Inventor: PINTO ANTONIO GERMANO GOMES
IPC: B05B3/10
Filed: 1999-11-05
Abstract: A liquid-spraying rotor (1) is described, the purpose of which is to receive liquids and to fractionate this liquid into as small as possible particles and to generate a flow of gases in a direction. Especially, a rotor of the type suggested by the present invention has application in exhaust-gas washers, for instance, in garbage-burning installations. The invention proposes a rotor that avoids or minimizes the accumulation of residues on the side walls of a gas washer, while maintaining the effect of generating rising streams, besides providing a fractionation of a liquid into minute particles, so as to increase the area of contact among the fractionated particles of the washing liquid and the particles in suspension in a gas. The proposed rotor (1) comprises: a first group of flaps (5, 6) suitable for, in rotation, spraying a liquid that falls onto them and providing a flow of gases and sprayed liquid in axial direction; a second group of flaps (9) located radially more outward than the flaps of the first group (5, 6) and suitable for, in rotation, providing a flow of gases and sprayed liquid radially inwards. A gas washer (2) is equally proposed, which contains said rotor.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DK97/00070 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 2, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 2, 1998 PCT Filed Feb. 14, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/30336 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 21, 1997A method of determining the density profile of a plate-shaped material M, the density of which varies discretely or continuously across the plate thickness, whereas the density at a specific depth of the plate M is preferably assumed to be constant. The inventive method employs X-rays or  gamma -rays from a source K. The latter source K is placed on one side of the plate M, whereas at least two detectors T, F are arranged on the opposite side of the endless plate being advanced during the measuring in the longitudinal direction. A first detector T is preferably placed in the radiating direction of the source and measures the transmittent radiation through the plate M, and the second detector F is placed outside the radiating direction of the source K and measures the scattered radiation on partial volumes along the radiating direction of the source. Based on the signals measured by the detectors it is possible to measure the density in each individual partial volume. According to the invention a compensation has furthermore been carried out for multiple scattered radiation by the measured radiation being deducted from the multiple scattered radiation.

Title: Control arrangement for a hydraulic motor
Inventor: BUHL JAN MAIBAELL
IPC: F15B11/04
Filed: 1999-01-08
Abstract: A control arrangement for a hydraulic motor (1) is, at least in one working direction, loadable by an external load (2). It has a control valve (3) with an inflow control throttle (5) and a return control throttle (7). The control valve (3) is part of a pressure control, in which the motor inflow pressure (PA) is substantially determined by the control valve (3). Further, there is a load retaining valve (14) in the return path (8), which opens in dependence of the difference between the motor inflow pressure (PA) and a reference pressure (PR), which can be picked off between the load retaining valve (14) and the return control throttle (7). A compensation valve (13) maintains a constant pressure drop at an adjustable throttle arranged in the return path (8). This gives a control arrangement, which is to a high degree load independent during lowering and stable towards oscillations.
