Abstract: A low-exhaust composite drop-out assembly is provided that is utilizable in a standard cutout mounting in electrical power distribution systems. The composite drop- out assembly includes current-limiting and low-current clearing sections and is easily removable from the mounting for servicing. The sections are efficiently arranged in a side by side configuration. The low-current clearing section includes a fuse-tube assembly having a replaceable fuse cartridge. Accordingly, the low-current clearing section is simply and economically renewable for reuse whether or not the current-limiting section has operated. Further, the current-limiting section need not be replaced if only the low-current clearing section operated in response to overcurrent in a low range. Additionally, the sections are separable so that the low-current clearing section can be reused after simple refusing even when the current-limiting section has operated.

Abstract: A vehicle window antenna comprises a grid of conductive frit material affixed to the inner side of a window glass in a confined area above a window heating element comprising a grid of similar material similarly affixed and covering most of the window viewing area.  The window glass is retained in a channel surrounding an aperture edge of the vehicle body by a mounting and sealing member comprising a strip of a urethane material which is electrically conductive with a low impedance at radio frequencies. At least one electrically conducting ground element, made of the same frit material, is affixed to the inner side of the window glass and electrically coupled at radio frequencies through the mounting and sealing member to the vehicle body. The ground element is provided at the point where the antenna element most closely approaches the mounting and sealing member and aperture edge and has an inner edge extending sufficiently close to the antenna element, as compared with the mounting and sealing element, to replace the latter in defining the closest distance between the ground plane and the antenna element and thus provides a predetermined antenna impedance or other antenna parameter regardless of variations in position, configuration and dimension of the mounting and sealing element. The ground element may be located at one of the upper corners of the antenna element and may comprise a generally L shaped element between the antenna element and the upper corner with a horizontal portion and a vertical portion, the latter extending along the side of the antenna element. The antenna may also comprise a similar ground element adjacent the other upper corner of the antenna element.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un nouveau procédé de contrôle de la biodégradation, laquelle est réalisée au moyen de cultures mélangées de micro-organismes. On effectue les mesures et les ajustements (de préférence en ligne) des paramètres de traitement se rapportant à l'activité métabolique des micro-organismes de manière à ce que la nitrification et la dénitrification se fassent simultanément dans le même environnement tout en maintenant la concentration en oxygène en dessous de 1 mg/l. Le procédé permet d'utiliser des concentrations élevées de biomasse (jusqu'à 20 kg/m?3¿) et de réduire la consommation en énergie et le volume de traitement, par exemple, des procédés de boues activées. D'où la réduction des coûts de l'épuration des eaux usées. Généralement, le procédé fournit des conditions optimales aux micro-organismes utilisés dans le traitement. L'invention décrit également un procédé d'épuration des eaux usées et une station pour l'épuration des eaux usées. Tous les deux ont recours à un procédé de contrôle de la biodégradation. L'invention décrit enfin un procédé servant à établir les valeurs de consignes pré-réglées qui permettent d'effectuer le contrôle.

Abstract: A saw blade has a rotatable body with a plurality of cutting elements mounted around its periphery. The cutting elements have self holding tapered shanks which are received in sockets in holders on the saw blade. The sockets have corresponding tapers. The holders are U-shaped members which straddle the peripheral edge of the body. The shanks are dimensioned so that the holders are slightly deformed when the cutting elements are fully inserted into the holders. This helps to grip the cutting elements tightly in the holders. The holders have bearing surfaces adjacent the sockets . The bearing surfaces bear against faces on the cutting elements when the cutting elements are fully engaged in the holders so that impact forces are primarily borne by the bearing surfaces and not by the sockets.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un atelier de fabrication de clinker. Cet atelier est constitué d'un réchauffeur, d'un four à calciner dans lequel, on calcine la matière brute à une température dépassant les 800  DEG C, et on introduit le combustible et de gaz oxygéné par le fond, et d'un four. L'invention porte principalement sur la réalisation d'un atelier de fabrication de ciment dans lequel on peut brûler dans le four à calciner un combustible solide, tout en ayant la possibilité d'augmenter, non seulement la période de rétention, mais aussi, le cas échéant, la température du matériau introduit par le fond. L'invention permet d'y parvenir car le fond (27) du four à calciner est fixe, ce qui permet, d'une part d'introduire dans le four à calciner le matériau combustible en le déposant sur le fond, et d'autre part d'introduire le gaz oxygéné horizontalement par des orifices ménagés dans le fond du four à calciner. L'introduction horizontale du gaz oxygéné nécessite que l'on procède en passant par les bords verticaux ou les parois du four à calciner, et non en passant par le fond.
