Abstract: The present invention relates to a circular knitting machine with stitch retention sinkers that comprises a plurality of needles (2), which are accommodated in slots (3) formed in at least one needle supporting element (4) and are controllably movable along the longitudinal extension of the corresponding slot (3) from an extracted position, in which the tip (2a) of the needles (2) protrudes from a longitudinal end of the corresponding slot (3) to engage at least one thread (5) fed by a thread guide (6), to a retracted position, in which the tip of the needles is retracted into the corresponding slot (3) so as to form a loop of knitting (10) with the engaged thread (5), and vice versa. The machine comprises multiple sinkers (11) that are arranged alternately between the needles (2) and are each arranged laterally with respect to a needle (2). The end of each one of the sinkers that is located proximate to the longitudinal end of the corresponding slot (3) from which the tip (2a) of the corresponding needle (2) protrudes to engage the thread (5) is provided with a beak (11a) that is directed towards the bottom of the slot (3). Each sinker is individually oscillatable, by virtue of the action of actuation means (15,16), on a plane that is substantially at right angles to the bottom of the corresponding slot (3) to move its beak from a retention position, in which the beak (11a) engages the knitting (10) formed by the corresponding needle (2), to a release position, in which the beak (11a) is disengaged from the knitting (10), and vice versa.

Abstract: A method of cryogenically separating a mixture of atmospheric gases within a distillation column. In accordance with the method, liquid and gaseous phases of the mixture of atmospheric gases to be separated are countercurrently passed through structured packing.. The column is operated at a pressure greater than 2 bars and at a vapour rate that is less than a critical vapour rate at which the column floods and which varies with the liquid rate. Minimum and critical vapour rates at which the column floods are set in accordance with experimentally derived data for maximum column utilization in terms of packing volume or column throughput. The performance of the structured packing surprisingly improves with increasing pressure. Accordingly, columns of a given performance (eg capacity) can be produced using smaller volume of structured packing than would have been predicted theoretically. Additionally, separation performance in terms of HETP increases with the increase in pressure so that a lower than prior art height of structured packing can be used to obtain a particular separation.

Abstract: The enlargement in the width of the waveguide is given by an enlargement function, f(C), which depends on the curvature, C, according to the condition f(C)/C = k, within the limit as C tends to zero where k is a constant. The function may thus take the preferred form, f(C) = k.C. where constant k lies between zero and a limiting max. value beyond which an enlargement introduces additional optical losses. The procedure defines the path of the waveguide but equally it can be applied to obtain a waveguide with these parameters.

Abstract: During sing-around-type measurement in a fluid, a transmitter (2; 3) repeatedly transmits sound pulses in the fluid, and these sound pulses are received by a receiver (3; 2), which acoustically is disposed opposite to the transmitter. The detection of the reception of a sound pulse at the receiver triggers the transmission of a subsequent sound pulse by the transmitter. In order to avoid any interference from multiple-reflected sound pulses, a delay (20) is produced with the aid of the frequency of the received sound pulse, and the transmission of the subsequent sound pulse by the transmitter is triggered with this delay.

Abstract: Une pièce d'insertion logée d'une manière sûre à l'extrémité inférieure d'une électrode comporte une surface d'émission découverte profilée de façon à définir un creux dimensionné au départ en fonction du niveau du courant de fonctionnement de la torche, du diamètre de la pièce d'insertion et du profil d'écoulement du gaz plasma dans la torche. L'électrode a un corps allongé réalisé en un matériau à haute conductivité thermique tel que le cuivre, et comporte un passage formé à l'extrémité inférieure du corps, suivant un axe central. La pièce d'insertion est réalisée en un matériau à haute émissivité thermoionique tel que le hafnium et elle est logée d'une manière fixe dans l'alésage avec sa surface d'émission découverte. La surface d'émission peut être formée au départ en enlevant une quantité prédéterminée de matériau à haute émissivité thermoionique de la pièce d'insertion pour constituer un creux sensiblement concave, cylindrique ou d'une autre forme. Lorsqu'on l'utilise dans une torche, l'électrode permet de diminuer les dépôts du matériau à haute émissivité thermoionique sur l'ajutage, ce qui diminue l'usure de l'ajutage de la torche.
