Patent EP-1954524-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LEGGETT TIMOTHY S
IPC: B66D1/48
Filed: 2006-11-16
Abstract: A self-tensioning tie down assembly (2) for tightening retaining straps (70) about winches (64) securing cargo (71) on a carrier (73). The assembly (2) has an actuator (15) connected to a pneumatic circuit (61) and providing reciprocating linear motion to a torque linkage (60) connected to the winch (64). The torque linkage (60) has a wrap spring clutch (17) connectable to the ratchet wheel (7) of the winch (64) and a connector arm (11) connected to the actuator (15). The torque linkage (60) transmits the linear motion to the winch (64) as a corresponding rotational motion. The required tension level of the retaining strap (70) is pre-set. Pressure within the circuit (61) drives the actuator (15) thereby actuating the torque linkage (60) which tightens the strap (70) on the winch (64) until the tension level is reached. The flow of pressure to the actuator (15) is controlled by a control valve (18) having a valve lever (19) that is toggled back and forth between an extend position and a retract position by a pair of opposed trip mounts (31, 32) mounted on the connector arm (11).

Abstract: A method of starting up a filtration plant for the filtration of a process liquid, after cleaning of the filtration plant, and a filtration plant which is arranged to be able to started up in accordance with this method. A secondary liquid supply unit connected to the post-treatment equipment during the starting up of the plant provides a flow of e.g. sterilized water to the post-treatment equipment, so that this can be held in a condition in which it is ready for operation. Thereafter, the process liquid is led to the filtration equipment, and the flow of liquid from the secondary liquid supply unit to the post-treatment equipment is shut off when a flow of filtered process liquid is obtained, and which thereafter replaces the liquid from the secondary liquid supply unit.

Abstract: A heat resistant alloy comprising, in % by weight, over 0.6% to not more than 0.9% of C, up to 2.5% of Si, up to 3.0% of Mn, 20 to 28% of Cr, 8 to 55% of Ni, 0.01 to 0.8% of Ti and 0.05 to 1.5% of Nb, the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, the value of (Ti + Nb)/C being 0.12 to 0.29 in atomic % ratio. When the alloy further contains up to 0.5% of Zr, the value of (Ti + Nb + Zr)/C is 0.12 to 0.29 in atomic % ratio. When the alloy is heated at a temperature of at least about 800 degrees C, a fine Ti-Nb-Cr carbide or Ti-Nb-Zr-Cr carbide precipitates within grains to thereby retard creep deformation and give an improved creep rupture strength. The alloy is therefore suitable as a material for hydrogen production reforming tubes.

Abstract: A lost telephone or other portable device with a long-range transceiver and also a RF or other short-range scanning device is located with the aid of a second such device that has a matching tag. A server instructs 203 the lost device to scan 204 for a second device: when a second device is found a message is set to the user of the second device. If no second device can be found, the server may contact potential second devices directly and instruct them to scan for the lost device (this requiring that the lost device has a tag and the potential second devices have scanners). In either case the lost device is triggered to give audible warning for the user of the second device. In the event that this is not possible because the lost device is switched off, a third  modus operandi  provides that the second device can send a power-on signal via the lost device's tag circuits.
