Patent CA-2253552-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PIZI ANTHONY C
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 1997-05-05
Abstract: Un nouveau programme d'interface (110) pour poste de travail informatique (10) prévoit la subordination d'un système d'exploitation (340) et de commandes d'application selctionnés. Le système permet l'intégration transparentes d'applications distinctes avec un contrôleur de contexte commun (410) permettant la communication interapplication par rapport à l'environnement d'exploitation. Les ressources (330) du système sont gérées afin d'assurer que des operations critiques conservent leurs priorités, tout en permettant l'accès à des ressources à mesure qu'elles sont libérées par ledit système. Le poste de travail (10) améliore la productivité de l'utilisateur en créant un environnement de travail orchestré autour de tâches et de fonctions plutôt que de paradigmes d'application et de fichiers spécifiques.

Title: System for recycling used oil filters
Inventor: SCHMIDT KARL W
IPC: F23L17/00
Filed: 1998-03-09
Abstract: A recycling system processes used oil filters on a continuous basis by shredding (8) the oil filters and then incinerating the shreds in a rotary kiln (20). The shreds are fed into the upper end of an inclined rotating drum kiln (20). The shreds of combustible material and any oil are burnt to produce exhaust gases and ash particles. The remaining metal shreds are discharged at the lower end of the rotating drum (20) through a first port (22). The exhaust gases and ash particles flow from the kiln (20) through a first cyclone (38) which separates out any heavy unburnable pieces. The remaining exhaust gases and ash particles then pass through an afterburner (12) to further ensure complete combustion and minimize air pollution. A second cyclone (14) separates the ash particles from the exhaust gases. An exhauster (13) can be used to induce the flow of exhaust gases and ash particles from the kiln (20) through the afterburner (12) and cyclones (38, 14). This system automatically separates metal shreds and incinerates the combustible materials and oil in the oil filters. Ash particles are also automatically separated by the second cyclone (14) and discharged through a separate port (15).
