Abstract: L'invention concerne un four (F) de reformage à la vapeur comprenant une pluralité de tubes (T) de reformage sensiblement verticaux. Chaque tube (T) de reformage, comportant un orifice (P) d'alimentation à son extrémité inférieure, un orifice de sortie à son extrémité supérieure et une zone de confinement catalytique située entre ses extrémités inférieure et supérieure, contient une charge d'un catalyseur (C) de reformage à la vapeur particulaire, dont la quantité ne suffit pas pour remplir complètement la zone de confinement catalytique. Un dispositif de retenue supérieur (3) monté à l'extrémité supérieure de la zone de confinement catalytique est perméable au gaz ou à la vapeur, mais il retient des particules du catalyseur (C) dans la zone de confinement catalytique. Un dispositif suiveur (4; 24), monté mobile dans la zone de confinement catalytique sous le catalyseur (C) de charge, se déplace vers le haut à partir d'une extrémité inférieure de la zone de confinement, par l'intermédiaire du flux vertical de gaz, à travers ladite zone de confinement catalytique, à un débit inférieur à un débit seuil. Un mélange réactif, composé de la charge d'hydrocarbure et de vapeur, circule vers le haut à travers chaque tube (T) de reformage, à un débit suffisant pour que, dans chaque tube (T) de reformage, le catalyseur (C) monte pour former un coussin catalytique (C) contre la face inférieure du dispositif de retenue supérieur (3) dans le tube (T) de reformage. Ce débit, qui dépasse le débit seuil, fait monter le dispositif suiveur (4; 24) dans le tube (T) de reformage jusqu'à ce qu'il touche la face inférieure du coussin catalytique (C) dans le tube (T) de reformage. Les tubes (T) de reformage sont chauffés extérieurement au moyen d'un four (F) de reformage à la vapeur, afin de maintenir les conditions de reformage à la vapeur dans chacun des tubes (T) de reformage et à convertir la charge d'hydrocarbure par réaction à la vapeur, pour produire un mélange gazeux reformé contenant des oxydes de carbone et de l'hydrogène.

Title: Embedment removal
Inventor: JOHNSTON EDWARD P
IPC: E02B9/00
Filed: 2004-11-29
Granted: 2013-02-05
Abstract: Draft tube embedments of a hydroelectric turbine are removed for replacement and/or upgrading. Several shafts for saw wire access, forming a horizontal polygonal shape are drilled outside the draft ring and a circular slot cut below the bottom ring to meet the shafts. Shafts and slot encompass the embedments. Additional shafts are drilled for hoist slings. Generally radial cuts are made using diamond saw wires attached to saw wire machines from selected saw wire access shafts to the draft tube through the embedments. Back cuts are made between adjacent saw wire access shafts, again by diamond saw wires attached to saw wire machines, cutting the polygon into sections. Hoisting slings are passed down the hoisting sling shafts around the sections. The sections are then cut free by further back cuts and then hoisted from the draft tube. The method is quicker than conventional methods.

Granted: 2012-01-03
Abstract: A ring metal (10) has binder rings (12-16) each comprised of two ring segments one end of each of which is attached to a hinge plate (18, 20). A movable bar (34) extends from one end of the metal to the other and contacts the hinge plates to move them when the binder is opened. A manually operated trigger (32) connects to one end of the bar to move the bar. The trigger includes a slot (40) in which is fitted a pin (44) connected to the bar. The pin moves in the slot as the trigger is moved. Drawing the trigger away from a binder closed position toward a binder open position moves the pin through the slot. This causes the bar to move relative to the hinges, forcing the hinges to pivot the respective segments of each binder ring away from each other and open the binder. When the binder is closed, a nib (62) formed on the top of the bar is received in an opening in a shield (22) of the metal to prevent the trigger from being inadvertently moved and opening the binder.

Title: Method and machine for non-destructive stretching and fastening of a pelt on a pelt board
Inventor: HEDEGAARD JENS
IPC: C14B1/26
Filed: 2004-09-20
Granted: 2012-06-19
Abstract: In connection with the non-destructive stretching and fastening of pelts on distention elements/pelt boards, where the pelt is stretched and fastened during the drying process by means of a fixing bag, has shown that the pelts shrink of the tail root of the pelt. It is desirable to stretch the pelts to a greater degree than possible using the known stretching machines. This has led to the development of a new method and a stretching machine, where the gripping elements are configured to correspond with the shape of the pelt board, so to engage the pelt by the gripping elements along the whole of the lower periphery of the pelt, to distribute the counter-hold force in the pelt over the whole periphery of the pelt, whereby the pelt can be stretched to a greater degree without any damage to the pelt in the areas of engagement for the gripping elements.

Granted: 2012-12-18
Abstract: An improved adhesive-spreading unit, in particular for bonding machines, of the type comprising a set of rollers (12, 18, 20), each of which rotates at a higher speed than the preceding one, the first roller (12) being in contact with a tank (16) of adhesive and the last roller (20) sliding in contact with a film (21) on which said adhesive is to be deposited, which said unit also comprises devices (23, 24, 30, 31) designed to distance said rollers from one another and bring them into contact when the film has been loaded into the machine, and that includes a single actuator unit (23, 24) for the movement of said rollers. Said actuator (23, 24), during the first stage of its travel, brings a rubber- clad roller (18) into contact with the first roller (12) that takes up adhesive from a tank, and during the second part of its travel moves said two rollers (12, 18) to bring the rubber-covered roller into contact with a third roller (20), which transfers the adhesive to the film and vice versa. The result is a more compact unit which eliminates the need for two motors, as is the case with known units, because all the movements of the various parts are driven by a common actuator.
