Patent NZ-230870-A (NZ)
Title: Control mechanism for uni-directional gear drive
Inventor: FAHY ARTHUR JAMES
IPC: F16H/
Filed: 1989-10-02
Abstract: A torque limiting mechanism has two locking members (131, 137) designed to be incapable of transmitting drive between them but having meshing spiral teeth (132, 138). The members are in a rotatable frame (127) and are respectively driven by radially toothed gears (128, 124) having an idler gear (125) between them. One radially toothed gear (124) is splined (at 123) to a section of a drive shaft (110) of reduced diameter so that it twists in torsion when an input driving torque is applied to the shaft (110). Gear lash exists between the radially toothed gears (124, 125 and 128) which is overcome by the twist of the shaft (110) if the applied torque is big enough. When this occurs, synchronous drive from the input shaft (110) is applied to both locking members (131,137) so that they rotate together. The applied torque necessary to achieve this is determined by the position of one gear (124) on the spline (123) and this is controlled by a lever (114). Until the applied torque overcomes the gear lash, the locking member (131) prevents the locking member (137) from rotating, and the applied torque on the shaft (110) causes the frame (127) to rotate about the axis of the shaft (110) and provide rotational drive to an output shaft (112). The use of similarly operating locking members is described in other applications than torque limiters..

The process comprises in a first stage a prepolymerisation performed by contacting propylene with the catalyst and a cocatalyst consisting of a trialkylaluminium and/or of an alkylaluminium halide not complexed with an external electron-donor. In a second stage, the copolymer is obtained by contacting the prepolymer with an alpha-olef in mixture containing 20 to 80% by volume of propylene.

Title: Apparatus for generating stock turbulence in a fourdrinier forming section of an open surface paper making machine
Inventor: WHITE JAMES D
IPC: D21F1/20
Filed: 1999-06-17
Abstract: Provided is an apparatus for generating turbulence in stock to deflocculate the stock in an open surface forming section of a paper making machine comprising a dewatering box (2) providing vacuum assisted drainage and which has a set of dewatering elements that impart turbulence into relatively thick stock layers carried at machine operating speeds of equal up to about 400 m/min, for the production of paper products having a basis weight generally in excess of about 160 gsm.  Each set of elements includes a lead-in element (5), at least one intermediate element (6, 7), and a trailing element (8).  The path of the forming fabric (13) is deflected downwardly as it passes over the intermediate elements, which are inclined at an angle of from about 0 DEG to about 10 DEG from a plane defined by forming fabric supporting surfaces on the lead-in and riser elements.  This vertical movement initiates turbulence and agitation in the stock, which acts both to deflocculate the stock and to diminish the possibility of sheet sealing.  The apparatus is useable in combination with other known formation and drainage devices that are located either upstream or downstream to augment their performance with thicker, slower moving stock layers.
