Patent EP-0774828-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BROWN GEOFFREY THOMAS
IPC: H02P23/00
Filed: 1996-10-31
Abstract: An angle interpolation circuit for a phase energisation controller receives absolute positions from sensors and interpolates conduction angles for each phase in a switched reluctance machine having one or more phases. It uses a frequency multiplier to generate an integer number of pulses between the edges of the sensor signal for clocking a corresponding counter for each machine phase. The circuit adjusts for variations in the mark/space ratio of sensor inputs by setting the counters' expected values at each sensor edge.

Abstract: For an impeller pump, the seal/bearing unit has two rotor-stator pairs of tapered sleeves arranged back-to-back. The sleeves have a spiral groove, and convey barrier-liquid from an entry-mouth in an entry-chamber to an exit-mouth in an exit-chamber. Having two sleeves gives the units mechanical stability, thrust support capability, and resistence to vibrations and other abuses. The tapered sleeves may be arranged wide-narrow-wide, or narrow-wide-narrow. The sleeves may be mounted for sliding in the housing and on the shaft, or may be fixed to the housing or shaft.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé ainsi que sur le dispositif correspondant permettant de produire de l'énergie de refroidissement et de chauffage destinée à un ou plusieurs bâtiments et de la répartir dans ces bâtiments à l'aide d'un liquide circulant dans un système de tuyauteries. Cette énergie de refroidissement et de chauffage est produite par de l'eau chaude provenant d'une installation de chauffage d'eau à distance et par un complexe à absorption (5, 8, 9, 10) ou analogue, lequel tire son énergie de l'eau de l'installation de chauffage à distance. Afin d'abaisser les coûts de revient, le liquide utilisé pour transférer l'énergie est prévu pour être stocké dans un seul et même réservoir (26) aménagé dans le complexe à absorption (5, 8, 9, 10) ou analogue, durant les phases de refroidissement et de chauffage, lorsque la demande est peu importante, et pour être prélevé dans le réservoir (26) lorsque la demande en matière d'énergie de refroidissement ou de chauffage est importante.

Title: Appareil d'evacuation des fumees chirurgicales
Inventor: YEH CHARLES
IPC: A61B18/00
Filed: 1996-12-20
Abstract: L'invention a pour objet un dispositif d'évacuation des fumées. Ce dispositif peut être utilisé dans des interventions électrochirurgicales et de chirurgie au laser au cours desquelles une source de fluide sous pression, se déplaçant rapidement, est introduite dans le site chirurgical pour entraîner la fumée et autres débris chirurgicaux générés pendant l'intervention. En outre, un dispositif de collecte est actionné sous pression réduite, et est placé de manière adjacente au site d'intervention, de telle sorte que le courant de fluide en déplacement entraîne toute la fumée et les débris chirurgicaux qui sont ensuite collectés dans ce dispositif de collecte. Dans le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le dispositif de collecte comprend une partie évasée pour assurer l'écoulement laminaire du courant de fluide lorsque celui-ci pénètre dans le dispositif de collecte. Selon un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, la source de fluide sous pression et le dispositif de collecte sont fixés sur une sonde ou instrument manuel de chirurgie au laser. Dans ce cas, la source de fluide sous pression et le dispositif de collecte sont solidaires de la sonde, et ainsi le tube est repositionné lors du repositionnement même de la sonde.

Abstract: An electrode material comprised of hydrous metal oxide, such as ruthenium oxide, is annealed up to temperature just below the temperature at which the hydrous metal oxide would crystallize. Therefore, the hydrous metal oxide remains amorphous or non-crystalline. A hydrous metal oxide material treated in this manner provides a charge storage capacity and energy density greater than 747 F/g and 92 joules/gram, respectively, over 1 V range in a sulfuric acid electrolyte. This invention also provides a method of material preparation, wherein a sol-gel process is used to fabricate the hydrous metal oxides and wherein commercially available hydrous ruthenium oxide powders are treated and annealed.

Abstract: The method involves using travel and or track-specific signals as control impulses to initiate lubrication. The digital or analogue signals may be time, distance or curve-dependant and or track programming dependant, and may be received by contacts, transmitters, sensors, selectively individually, together, or in any combination. The signals are evaluated in a computer for a freely programable control system, and lubrication is initiated dependant upon track, time or quantity-dependant lubrication requirements, which are variably adjustable. Direction and speed of travel are also taken into consideration for lubrication start-up.

Abstract: A powder sealing device of a powder beam processing machine including a processing chamber (12) for processing a workpiece (13) by jetting powder beams to the workpiece (13), includes: a thin film cylinder member (36) for sealing a space between an operating shaft (30) passing through an opening portion (32) formed in a peripheral surface of the processing chamber (12) and the opening portion (32); and a substantially cylindrical mounting bracket (34) having a small chamber (37) communicated to the processing chamber (12) and mounted to the opening portion (32). The thin film cylinder member (36) is formed of a flexible thin film material into a substantially conical shape, and has one end mounted to one end of the mounting bracket (34) on the opening portion (32) side and the other end mounted to the outer peripheral side of the operating shaft (30). When the processing chamber (12) is in a negative pressure state, an intermediate portion of the conical thin film cylinder member (36A) is expandedly sucked inward of the small chamber (37) without generation of any wrinkle, so that it is possible to structurally eliminate breakage of the thin film cylinder member (36) and hence to prolong the service life of the powder sealing device.

Abstract: A fastening tape for nappy pants has one practically inelastic section (1) pref. permanently connected with the back of the nappy. Another inelastic section (2) is connected to the front of the nappy, pref. in a removable manner and the two sections (1, 2) are connected by an elastic centre section (3). At the junctions (4, 5) with the centre section (3) both outer sections (1, 2) have an open-structured surface and the thermoplastic, elastic material of the centre section (3) penetrates in the softened state into the surface cavities of the outer sections (1, 2) to give a mechanical bond. Pref. the centre section (3) is a modified styrol-ethylene-butylene block copolymer with a breaking extension of at least 250% and an elastic modulus of 0.5 - 3.5, pref. 1.6 N/mm<2>. It is extruded on to the outer sections (1, 2) which consist of a heat set polypropylene non-woven. Both outer sections (1, 2) are covered with a smooth-surfaced reinforcing film (7) attached by means of a permanent adhesive film (6). One of the outer sections (2) has a layer of adhesive (8) which can be undone. The adhesive is covered by a release tape (9) which also partially protrudes over the centre section (3) and which is removed when the nappy is fitted. The assembly is produced as a continuous length with an outer permanent adhesive layer (10) and rolled up, the guard strip (11) preventing the layers sticking together on the roll. Individual fasteners are cut off from the roll and folded over the back of the nappy so that the adhesive (10) sticks to the inside and outside of the back.

Abstract: A method of building a lined tunnel in earth comprises
the steps of excavating a tunnel in the earth by means of a
forward moving excavating machine, placing a support structure
behind the excavating machine after a tunnel part has been
excavated, such that a ringshaped gap is formed between the
support structure and the surrounding earth, providing a sealing
means for sealing off the ringshaped gap towards the excavating
machine, filling the ringshaped gap behind the sealing means
by injecting therein a liquid lining material, such as liquid
concrete, and allowing the lining material to become solid and
to harden. Separation means are provided in the tunnel lining
before hardening of the lining material, so that the tunnel
lining is divided into separate sections. The separation means
are located on such places that the separate sections are free
to shrink during hardening of the lining material and to follow
settlements of the surrounding earth. Gaps formed between the
separate sections are filled with a sealing means.
