Title: Device for enriching water with co 2? gas in order to generate carbonated water.
Inventor: NOTAR ROBERT
IPC: B01F15/00
Filed: 1993-08-25
Abstract: Apparatus including a circulating pump inside a carbonator tank which blends CO2 with still water and which is started and stopped for predetermined time periods in repetitive cycles having an on/off ratio ranging between 1:10 and 1:20. A timing circuit controls the operating and non operating times of the circulating pump so that sufficient carbonation of the water with CO2 gas is achieved along with the formation of an ice bank on the cooled wall of the storage tank. During intervening periods when the circulating pump is not operating, the carbonated water arranges itself in layers according to its density so that the relatively warmer water sinks while the colder water together with any ice particles or small pieces of ice floating therein join together, becoming fixed to the ice bank in the upper portion of the carbonator. During the next operating cycle of the circulating pump, these particles are frozen together and become relatively harmless to the extent that the shutoff valve and output carbonated water line remains unobstructed. Whenever carbonated water is removed from the storage tank or fresh water is supplied to the storage tank, the circulating pump is again started for an additional on-period time interval which is greater than the normal on-period.

Abstract: Packed bed device with gas treatment, especially cooler, comprising a push grating (1) with at least one grating element (3) which is moved to and fro in the conveying direction and to which the gas can be supplied from a stationary source (15) via a pipeline (6, 7, 8, 13, 17, 18) which comprises, inside a substantially closed grating underlying space (20) subjected to overpressure, a compensator (16) for taking up the relative movement between the stationary source and the grating element. The compensator (16) is formed by parts (17, 18) which are telescopically displaceable one inside the other. The structure of the compensator can be simple and insensitive, since leakage losses are permissible in view of the maintenance of the overpressure in the grating underlying space. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An optical zoom system including first and second lens groups disposed for relative movement along an optical axis. They are coupled together by a cam and follower mechanism with two pivotally coupled linkages for controlling such relative movement to change the focal length of the optical system. The system is characterized by a mechanism for offsetting relative movement between the lens groups along the optical axis caused by lateral movement of said lens groups essentially normal to said axis, thereby to maintain the focal length constant in the presence of said lateral movement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ski consisting of a long beam (1) with an arched part (2) of length (LC) between a front contact line (20) and a rear contact line (21); said central part comprising an area where the bindings (5) are attached. The ski comprises two load transmitters (6, 7) positioned centrally (2), one in front of and one behind said attachment area (5). One of the ends (60, 70) of each load transmitter is connected to the beam by a full joint (8); the other end (61, 71) is connected by a partial connection means which is free to move in a lengthwise direction and is formed by an elastic and/or viscous component (90, 91) that tends to resist the lengthwise movement of said load transmitter. When flexing forces occur, the ratio of the movement ( DELTA 1) of the partially connected end (61) of the front load transmitter (6) to the movement ( DELTA 2) of the partially connected end (71) of the rear load transmitter (7) is between 1.2:1 and 2.5:1; and the ratio of the stiffness (K1) of the elastic and/or viscous component (90) of the front load transmitter (6) to the stiffness (K2) of the elastic and/or viscous component (91) of the rear load transmitter (7) is between 1.2:5 and 5:1.

Abstract: To achieve high bandwidth NSOM reflection-mode detection, we have developed a system in which the tip and aperture region of an NSOM probe serves as one end reflector of an optical cavity that includes an optically emissive medium. (For example, the emissive medium may be a  Nd ³⁺ doped fiber laser continuous with the probe.) The field changes within the tip are then evidenced as small variations in the complex reflectivity at one end of the cavity. It is well known that these variations can result in substantial changes in the optical output characteristics of the emissive medium. For example, they may result in large changes in the output power from the opposite end of a fiber laser, particularly when the laser is operated near threshold. 
     This hybrid, near field, fiber laser probe (105) can also be used for optical data recording.

La tête (40) du mandrin déforme la rivure (28), lui donnant une forme torsadée à section légèrement elliptique entourant partiellement la tête (40) du mandrin afin d'assurer une bonne retenue de la tige et empêcher tout jeu axial. Une pluralité de nervures axiales (48) sur la tige (38) du mandrin viennent se placer dans une section de diamètre réduit de la tête du rivet, une fois le rivet en place, ce qui permet d'augmenter la retenue de la tige et le contact torsionnel.

Abstract: An apparatus for measuring on the site of an accident the three-dimensional deformation of a damaged vehicle comprises a reference frame and a distance measuring device. The reference frame comprises a first straight frame portion installed in front of the vehicle parallel to the transversal axis thereof, a second elongated straight frame portion installed on the side of the vehicle parallel to this vehicle's longitudinal axis, and a third elongated straight frame portion installed at the rear of the vehicle parallel to the transversal axis. When the deformation is situated in front of the damaged vehicle, the first frame portion defines a first axis of a three-dimensional coordinate system, the second axis of this coordinate system being located in a vertical plane in which the first elongated frame portion is lying. The distance measuring device measures distances between the first frame portion and the body of the damaged vehicle in the region of the three-dimensional deformation, by measuring distances along the second and a third axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system. The distance measurements along with knowledge of the spatial relationship between the first frame portion and the non deformed part of the vehicle body give very accurate information about the three-dimensional deformation of the vehicle.
