Title: Method for adjusting the loaded length of the spring of an exhaust gas recirculation valve for an internal combustion engine
IPC: F02M26/67
Filed: 1988-07-14
Granted: 1993-05-26
Abstract: Exhaust gas recirculation valves of this type are needed for exhaust gas purification for diesel engines used in motor vehicles. These are produced in very large quantities (mass-produced items) so that there is an increased need for advanced solutions for economic production. For technically simple adjustment of the free clamping length of the spring, therefore the new exhaust gas recirculation valve is characterised in that a cover defining the evacuated chamber has a dome-shaped projection accommodating the spring, which projection can be pressed into the cover by axial loading for adjustment of the free clamping length of the spring. <IMAGE>

IPC: G01F1/30
Filed: 1988-05-10
Granted: 1992-07-29
Abstract: An impact flowmeter utilizes a part cylindrical impact plate (6) mounted by a parallelogram strain gauge (14) from the top of a cylindrical housing (2) with which it is coaxial. Material to be metered enters the flowmeter through an inclined inlet tube (4) so as to impact the inner surface of the impact plate, and the horizontal reaction force from the plate is measured by the strain gauge. The flowmeter is simple to construct and can be made very compact, whilst the cylindrical surfaces of the principal components minimizes disturbances of the flow of material through the unit and thus provides good linearity.

Title: Control apparatus for electric bed heating arrangements
IPC: H05B1/02
Filed: 1988-11-28
Granted: 1993-09-15
Abstract: A control apparatus for an electric bed heating arrangement (24) includes a 24 hour timer circuit (36) which, after the apparatus has been energised from an electrical supply: (i) disables energisation of the bed heating arrangement (24) until a manual operation of setting the timer circuit (operation of a reset/override switch) has been performed; and (ii) responds to the manual setting operation to commence a 24 hour cycle according to which energisation of the bed heating arrangement is enabled each day, at a time determined by the time of day at which the manual setting operation was performed, and continues thereafter to be enabled for a predetermined part only (e.g. 12 hours) of the 24 hour cycle. When, for example after first purchase or at the end of the warm season, use of the bed heating arrangement is to be commenced, the user need only connect the control apparatus to an electrical supply and then perform the manual setting operation at an appropriate time of day. Thereafter, provided the apparatus is left connected to the supply, heating of the bed will be enabled each day at the same time as that determined by the time at which the setting operation was performed and will be disabled each day at the same time, namely at the end of the predetermined part of the 24 hour cycle.

Abstract: The pad is of circular or square shape and has two outer layers (2, 3) which are compressed flat and between which there is an inner layer (1) of non-compressed material. The edges (11, 12, 13) of these three layers (1, 2, 3) are connected to one another. The greater the surface compression of the material of the outer layers (2, 3), the less impermeable are these layers to liquids with a pasty consistency.

Abstract: The collection station essentially consists of an ideally cylindrical or parallelepiped compact mass body forming the collecting chamber for used plastic material containers and is equipped in different ways with a suction duct. The device can be directly laid on the ground and its emptying is nearly instantaneous by means of an aspiration air flux at high speed coming from a suction element, acting with automatic hooking, of a mobile drawing compartment which then transforms the above mentioned containers in recovered product for recycling. In a version a station is foreseen which, on a base (1) leaning on the ground, uses a parallelepiped containment body (2) with loading mouths (3) and an inspection door (4). The plastic containers, or heterogenous plastic material, which have been let in, reach the bottom of the chamber (5) gliding on an inclined plane (6) and are stopped by a wall (7) with an inclination opposed to the preceding plane (6). On this site a suction duct (9), with catching mouth (8), is fitted with check and directional control valves (11). By means of the said suction duct (9) the containers are then taken away by means of a mobile operative compartment (17).

Abstract: Pyropheophorbide compounds are injected into a host and accumulate in tumor tissue to a higher degree than surrounding normal tissues. When the pyropheophorbide compounds are exposed to a particular wavelength of light the compounds become cytotoxic and destroy the tumor or diseased tissue without causing irreversible normal tissue damage. The pyropheophorbide compounds have shown improved results as compared to drugs currently used in photodynamic therapy. Further, they absorb light further in the red, optimizing tissue penetration and are retained in the skin for short time periods relative to other drugs used in photodynamic therapy.

Abstract: The dewatering apparatus for a twin-wire paper machine is constructed in such a way that, after the two wires (1, 2) are first brought together at a forming cylinder (7), a uniform pressure is exerted on the suspension layer between the wires. The two wires then run past stationary dewatering strips (7 or 10) which may be both in the upper and in the lower wire. In this process, reduced pressure is applied at least at the strips (7) in the upper wire (1). There then follows at least one further dewatering element (11) before the two wires are separated again. The dewatering apparatus can be used both downstream of a preliminary dewatering section, for example a long wire, or in the immediate vicinity of a headbox. <IMAGE>
