Abstract: Apparatus as shown in Fig. 1 incorporates a movable dispensing head (2) provided with a supply of material which solidifies at a predetermined temperature, and a base member (10), which are moved relative to each other along "X", "Y," and "Z" axes in a predetermined pattern to create three-dimensional objects by building up material discharged from the dispensing head (2) onto the base member (10) at a controlled rate. The apparatus is preferably computer driven in a process utilizing computer aided design (CAD) and computer-aided (CAM) software to generate drive signals for controlled movement of the dispensing head (2) and base member (10) as material is being dispensed. Three-dimensional objects (40a) may be produced by depositing repeated layers of solidifying material until the shape is formed. Any material, such as self-hardening waxes, thermoplastic resins, molten metals, two-part epoxies, foaming plastics, and glass, which adheres to the previous layer with an adequate bond upon solidification, may be utilized. Each layer base is defined by the previous layer, and each layer thickness is defined and closely controlled by the height at which the tip (4) of the dispensing head (2) is positioned above the preceding layer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for treating fly ash/APC residues chlorides, sulphates, earth alkali metals selected from the group consisting of calcium, potassium, and sodium, and heavy metals selected from the group consisting of lead, which residues are obtained from air pollution control processes that utilize dry/semi-dry line injection, such that said residues may be disposed of as non-hazardous materials. The process comprises the sequential steps of: (a) washing and agitating the fly ash/APC residue (20) with water (50) to form a residue slurry containing solubilized lead salts and calcium chloride; (b) filtering (42) the residue slurry to remove a filtrate (46) having a pH of higher than about 11.8 and containing the solubilized lead salts and calcium chloride; and (c) recovering a first calcium enriched filter cake (44). The solubilized lead salts are then removed from the filtrate by the sub-steps of: (i) adding sufficient hydrochloric acid (58) to the filtrate to lower the pH thereof to between about 10 and 11; (ii) agitating the filtrate until a colour change from white to yellow occurs; (iii) adding additional sufficient hydrochloric acid to the filtrate so agitated to lower the pH to between about 7 and 8; (iv) filtering (82) the filtrate to remove a brine (86) containing calcium chloride; and (v) recovering a second yellow coloured, lead enriched filter cake (84).

Abstract: A connector for coaxial cables having an inner conductor (14) and an outer conductor (10) separated by a dielectric (16) includes a front body (4) to attach a coaxial cable in the connector and a rear body (8) adapted for connection to the front body (4), and a device for holding the cable in the connector in a manner that permits reproducible deformation of the outer conductor (10) during the connecting operation. The device for holding the cable in position is comprised of a ferrule (1) for holding the coaxial cable, and a bushing (2) that cooperates with the ferrule (1) to permit axial movement of the coaxial cable over a determined distance (L) in the connector during the connecting operation. The surfaces of ferrule (1) and bushing (2) cooperate to produce reproducible compression and/or deformation of the outer conductor (10) between said ferrule (1) and said bushing (2) during said connecting operation. The connector enables the coaxial cable to be deformed during the connection operation in an automatically reproducible manner without requiring precise measurements or special tools. The impedence fault value produced by the deformation of the outer conductor can be predetermined and is automatically reproduced during each connection operation.

Abstract: The invention concerns a composite with a substrate and a layer, consisting essentially of pure sp<2>- and sp<3>-hybridized carbon, which has a first surface facing the substrate and a second, exposed, surface. The invention also concerns a method of manufacturing the composite. The aim of the invention is to improve adherence to the substrate and to minimize internal stresses, while maintaining high surface hardness. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the layer is graded in nature, the proportion of sp<3>-hybridized carbon increasing towards the second, exposed, surface. The method proposed for manufacturing the composite calls for a layer of carbon to be applied, using PVD techniques, to a substrate in such a way that, during manufacture, the pulse input into the layer is either continuously or discontinuously increased as the thickness of the layer increases.
