Patent EP-0216547-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HANSEN JOHN C
IPC: F25B49/02
Filed: 1986-09-04
Abstract: When sensors are employed to monitor the evaporator refrigerent pressure and the leaving chilled liquid tem- perature in an air conditioning system of the type having a liquid chiller, the sensor outputs will normally have a prescribed relasionship with respect to each other as long as the sensors are functioning property and regardless of the operating condition of the air conditioning system. By effectively comparing the output of the sensor relative to that of the other sensor, a faulty condition of either sensor may be detected. This is achieved by calculating the equivalent evaporator temperature, from the evaporator refrigerant pressure, and subtracting the equivalent temperature from the leaving chilled liquid temperature to obtain a difference temperature which is then compared to a predetermined known temperature range representing normal functioning of the two sensors. When one of the sensors is defective the difference temperature will fall outside of the range. If that occurs, a warning message that a faulty sensor has been detected is displayed to operating personnel and the air conditioning system's compressor is shut down as a safety precaution.

Abstract: A latch-up protection circuit for an integrated circuit using complementary MOS circuit technology has a substrate bias generator that applies a negative substrate bias to a semiconductor substrate having a p-conductive material into which a well-shaped semiconductor zone of n-conductive material is inserted. In order to avoid latch-up effects in the integrated circuit, an electronic protection circuit interrupts the capacitive charging currents of a capacitor in the substrate depending on the potential of the semiconductor substrate which is taken at a doped substrate bias terminal. The electronic protection circuit disconnects a capacitor bias generator from the capacitor when a voltage on the substrate bias terminal is greater than a difference between a reference potential and a threshold voltage of a first transistor in the electronic protection circuit. The electronic protection circuit connects the capacitive bias generator to the capacitor when a voltage on the substrate bias terminal is lower than the difference. No quiescent current flows through the electronic protection circuit during normal operation of the integrated circuit.

Abstract: A structure for dispensing an additive into a wash chamber of a dishwashing apparatus at a predetermined stage in an operating cycle for the apparatus comprises a reservoir (34, 171) for a supply of additive, a cover (36, 181) movable between a closed position, wherein it seals the reservoir (34, 171) and an open position, wherein the reservoir is in communication with the wash chamber, and a timer mechanism (20) which moves a link (70) through a prescribed path as the dishwashing apparatus cycles and at one stage in the cycle moves the link (70) through a portion of the path in a first direction and at another stage the link retraces the path portion in an opposite direction. As the link (70) moves in the first direction it intercepts and moves a trigger arm (138, 208) and an associated member (62, 183) so that the cover (36, 181) moves from its closed position to its open position. Movement of the link (70) in the opposite direction causes the trigger arm (138, 208) to move relative to its associated member and the link portion encounters and moves beyond the trigger arm (138, 208) without moving the cover (36, 181) so that the cover (36, 181) is maintained in its closed position. This enables the apparatus to be manually reset without unrequired dispensing of additive.

Abstract: In reactors for treating bulk materials, with a vessel which can be sealed pressure-tight, and an agitator arranged therein, whose horizontally extending shaft protrudes through the end walls of the horizontally arranged product vessel, the shaft is mounted in bearings located outside the product vessel. The sealing of the shaft seals through the end walls of the product vessel is difficult because of the pressure differences between the external air and the interior space of the product vessel. In the novel reactor, this sealing problem is to be reduced by simple means. Although one of the two bearings of the shaft is also arranged outside the product vessel, it is hermetically encapsulated against the outside, a pressure equalisation being effected directly or indirectly between the housing forming the encapsulation and the interior space of the product vessel, so that the same pressure applies on both sides of the seal. In this reactor, in the region of the bearing hermetically encapsulated against the outside, there is no risk of product escapes at the seal due to pressure differences. Accordingly, the seal in this region can be of simpler design. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Conventional concentrated solvent-free aqueous polyacrylate dispersions or polyacrylate emulsions generally have a highly acidic pH of from 2 to 3.5, which means that they have highly corrosive properties on the metal objects to be protected. By contrast, the novel polyacrylate dispersions and the coating compositions containing them have only a slightly acidic pH of from 4 to 6. The polyacrylate dispersions having the above slightly acidic pH are obtained by neutralising from 5 to 50 mol % of the carboxyl-carrying comonomers by means of a base before the copolymerisation with hydrophobic comonomers. The resultant polyacrylate dispersions dry on objects to give clear water-resistant films which can easily be removed using alkaline agents. Their pH of from 4 to 6 means that they are significantly less corrosive towards the objects to be protected. The aqueous polyacrylate dispersions or polyacrylate emulsions are used as coating compositions for temporary surface-protection of metallic and/or painted surfaces, in particular automobile bodies, against climatic and/or mechanical influences.

Abstract: A controlled current supply circuit for semiconductor circuitry, such as I²L, which has an unscaled part (10) which remains continuously active and a scaled part (12) which, when not in a data processing mode requiring a high current can be operated at a much lower current so that the data therein is preserved and power is saved. Unless switching between low and higher currents is carefully controlled then there is a risk of data being lost. 
     The present invention provides a current supply circuit (14) which in response to the generation of an on-signal or off-signal causes the current supply to the scaled logic (12) to increase or decrease in a number of steps, there being a sufficiently long time delay between steps to allow the scaled logic (12) to settle. The rate of increase or decrease of the injected current is such that there are smaller increments or decrements when the overall current is low causing the scaled logic (12) to be low and larger increments and decrements when the overall current is high causing the scaled logic (12) to be fast.
