Inventor: FRITSCHI ISIDOR
IPC: A47J31/52
Filed: 1999-06-01
Abstract: The inventive device for infusing drinks consists of an infusion vessel (1) and an associated strainer (2) in the form of a receiving container (2) for the infusion product (7). Said device also comprises mechanical/hydraulic means for automatic and adjustable termination of the infusion process. The above-mentioned means enclose a receiving container (2) that is specifically lighter than water and which can be inserted into the infusion vessel (1), in addition to a weighting body (28) that enables the receiving container (2) for the infusion product (7) to be kept in a state of immersion in the infusion liquid (9) located in the infusion vessel (1) over an adjustable period of time. The weighting body (11) comprises a water-filled vessel (28) that is disposed on the receiving container (2) and provided with an outflow opening (29) through which the water contained in the weighting body can flow out into an insert ring (3). As soon as the vessel (28) and the receiving container (2) are relieved of the weight of the water in the vessel (28), the receiving container (2) begins to rise and the infusion product (7) is lifted out of the infusion liquid (9).

Title: Propergols hybrides a vitesse de regression elevee et leur procede de selection
Inventor: KARABEYOGLU M ARIF
IPC: C06B47/02
Filed: 1999-07-21
Abstract: Nouveau procédé de mise au point de propergols hybrides à vitesse de régression élevée destinés à des fusées hybrides et à des statoréacteurs à propergol solide. Le procédé consiste à utiliser un critère pour identifier les propergols qui forment une couche liquide instable à la surface de fusion du propergol. L'entraînement de gouttelettes depuis l'interface liquide-gaz instable peut sensiblement accroître le transfert de masse du propergol qui produit des vitesses de régression de surface supérieures à celles pouvant être obtenues avec des propergols hybrides classiques. La raison principale est que l'entraînement n'est pas limité par le transfert de chaleur entre la zone de combustion et le propergol. Le procédé a été utilisé pour identifier une nouvelle classe de combustibles hybrides non cryogéniques dont les caractéristiques de vitesse de régression peuvent être spécifiquement établies pour une mission donnée. Le carburant peut être utilisé en tant que base pour une structure de propergol hybride plus simple qui se caractérise par un moindre coût, une complexité réduite et une meilleure performance.

Title: Turbocharger shaft dual phase seal
Inventor: SVIHLA GARY R
IPC: F04D29/10
Filed: 2001-07-03
Abstract: A seal system for a four cycle engine turbocharger includes dual phase seals for limiting leakage from lubricated rotor support bearings to a turbine and/or compressor wheel of a rotor operational over an extended speed range. The dual phase seal combines features of a labyrinth seal, effective in a higher portion of the turbocharger rotor speed range, with features of an auger seal, found to be effective in a lower portion of the rotor speed range. The dual phase seals each include an outer cylinder on the rotor between a bearing and an associated wheel, an inner cylinder carried by a rotor support and surrounding the outer cylinder with close clearance, auger seal grooving formed in one of the cylinders on a portion thereof toward the bearing, labyrinth seal grooving formed in one of the cylinders on a portion thereof toward the wheel, and a pressure air supply to the labyrinth seal at a pressure which is reduced at rotor speeds in a lower portion of the speed range. Air pressure is supplied from an output of the compressor wheel to the labyrinth seal grooving for both the turbine and compressor ends of the rotor shaft. The dual phase seals operate without wear and provide cost effective and dependable rotor sealing at all rotor speeds without fragile or wearing parts, failure of which could cause damage to other components.

Inventor: DEERING MICHAEL F
IPC: G06T15/50
Filed: 2000-02-17
Abstract: A computer graphics system (112) that utilizes a graphics processor (352) to render samples into a sample buffer (162), and a sample-to-pixel calculation unit (360) to filter samples from the sample buffer for refreshing a display.  The samples have associated position information that may be computed using various sample positioning schemes. The sample-to-pixel calculation unit uses the position information for rendering and for determining how much a particular sample contributes, if at all, to a particular output pixel. The position information may comprise one or more offset values (e.g., x and y offsets) and may be specified relative to pre-defined positions (e.g., pre-determined pixel center coordinates or bin coordinates). The sample buffer may store samples according to a bin ordering scheme, and the sample-to-pixel calculation unit may use the sample's location within the bin to index into a look-up table (354) to determine the position information for the sample.
