Patent BR-9907726-A (BR)
Inventor: MAGNIN CESAR
IPC: B01F25/60
Filed: 1999-12-08
Abstract: A process and apparatus for industrial-scale preparation of an emulsified fuel including a water phase in a continuous organic phase which contains less than 20% by volume of water, and at least one additive necessary for forming the emulsified fuel. The fuel is formed by mixing and homogenizing the organic phase and the additives, forming a volume V, inside an homogenization tank with internal circulation rate Qc, such that Qc/V>=100 h-1, circulating the homogenized fluid in a branch loop emerging from the tank at a rate Qcirc, and through at least one emulsifying system located on said loop, at a rate such that 0 h<V/Qcirc<=2 h, feeding the aqueous phase into the branch loop upstream of the emulsifying system, and maintaining the homogenization in the tank and the circulation of the liquid in the branch loop until the emulsion acquires a desired characteristic of storage stability.

Abstract: "DISPOSITIVO DE PROCESSAMENTO DE "SOFTWARE" DO TIPO COM FUNCIONALIDADE DE ATUALIZAçãO, AMBIENTE DE COMPUTAçãO DISTRIBUìDO DO TIPO COM FUNCIONALIDADE DE ATUALIZAçãO, PROCESSOS DE CóPIA DE ESTADO PARA UM SISTEMA DE COMPUTAçãO COM PELO MENOS DUAS PARTIçõES LóGICAS E PARA UM AMBIENTE DE COMPUTAçãO DISTRIBUìDO". Para prover uma abordagem para atualização de "software" com pertubação gradual é proposto um processo de cópia de estado para um sistema de computação com pelo menos duas partições lógicas, no qual um estado do novo "software" em uma partição de reserva (6, 16) é atualizado para o estado do "software" antigo em uma partição de execução (16, 6) enquanto continua a execução do "software" antigo. Os dados são transferidos da partição de execução para a partição de reserva de um modo gradual e, tão logo o mesmo estado seja alcançado para a partição de reserva (6, 16) e para a partição de execução (16, 6), a execução é comutada para o novo "software". Isto permite graduar o grau de pertubação devido à atualização de "software" ao que é considerado adequado.

Title: Moulding linings for sewers or tunnels
Inventor: FLORENCE GEOFFREY LEWIS
IPC: B29C41/22
Filed: 2000-01-05
Abstract: During manufacture of a sewer or tunnel lining section, sand-resin material is deposited over a mould, after the application of a fibreglass-resin layer 40 over the mould, to define a central part of the section. Sand-resin material is removed using a wire 64 arranged to lie a predetermined radial distance from the surface of the mould. The wire is passed around the surface of the sand-resin layer whilst maintaining the predetermined radial distance, the predetermined radial distance comprising, or being slightly greater than a preset minimum thickness. The use of a wire to remove excess sand-resin material has been found to be particularly effective, and surprisingly the excess material does not re-adhere to the underlying surface after the wire has passed. This is despite the required tackiness of the sand-resin mixture. A second fibreglass-resin layer 44 is then formed over the sand-resin layer 42. The wire may be arranged to extend between a pair of roller arrangements. A method of lining a sewer or tunnel using the lining sections is also disclosed.

Title: Vehicle article carrier having clamping cross bar
Inventor: AFTANAS JEFFREY M
IPC: B60R9/048
Filed: 2000-05-19
Abstract: A vehicle article carrier includes a cross bar 20 having a pair of bracket assemblies at each end, where each bracket assembly includes a fixed jaw 26 and a movable jaw 28 which may be cooperatively clamped around a side rail 12 of the article carrier system. The fixed jaw incorporates a keyed recess 42 and the movable jaw incorporates a key 62. The construction of the keyed recess and the key enable the movable jaw to be pre-positioned so as to not interfere with placement of the cross bar onto the side rails during assembly. Clamping of each bracket assembly to its associated side rail is accomplished simply by turning a threaded fastener 40 engaged with both jaw portions. The movable jaw is rotated automatically into alignment with the fixed jaw and its associated side rail. Further tightening of the fastening member automatically draws the movable jaw into clamping engagement with its associated side rail. The construction of the bracket assembly allows the cross bar to be secured much more quickly and easily to the side rails.
