Granted: 2008-10-07
Abstract: This rope drive element for driving synthetic fiber ropes, preferably for a rope drive (1) of an elevator installation, ensures a consistently good selected tractive capacity which is largely independent of external influences which reduce friction. According to the invention, at least part of the rope running surface (7,17,27) is given a surface (14,37) with roughness grade N7 to N12. The surface is formed either by mechanical machining or by use of a suitable coating, preferably a plasma coating of corundum. In preferred embodiments the synthetic fiber rope or ropes run in rope grooves (7,17,27) in which the surface is formed, for example, only in the bed of the rope groove (7), in the area of the flanks (17), or over a wide area of the surface of the rope groove (27). By correspondingly suitable arrangement of these differently formed rope grooves (7,17,27) on a drive element (2), a desired tractive behavior can be systematically effected.

Granted: 2006-01-24
Abstract: In the area of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), the present invention relates to a demultiplexer/multiplexer based on a diffraction grating, in which a beam of light is separated into two orthogonally polarized sub-beams prior to beam collimation. Due to the characteristics of the beam splitting crystal, parts of the sub-beams overlap resulting in portions of the sub-beams becoming improperly polarized. Too alleviate the errors cause thereby, an iris is placed over the diffraction grating to eliminate the portions of the light that have been polarized improperly.

Inventor: BENECKE ARNOLD GEORGE
IPC: A47L13/20
Filed: 1999-10-29
Granted: 2004-03-23
Abstract: A vent and fluid transfer fitment (10) for sealing and transferring a fluid from an inverted fluid-filled container (16) without premature leakage to a receiver attachment (22), has a transfer check valve (12) and a venting check valve (13) which are preferably duck-bill valves. The transfer check valve is attached to the fitment for allowing fluid to be transferred from the container when the receiver attachment engages the transfer check valve. The venting check valve is also attached to the fitment for allowing air to displace the fluid as the fluid exits the container, wherein both the transfer check valve and the venting check valve have an inherent sealing pressure created by the static pressure of the fluid within the container. In addition, the inherent sealing pressure of the venting check valve is less than the inherent sealing pressure of the transfer check valve which allows air to enter the container due to the pressure differential created as the fluid is displaced.

Filed: 2003-01-09
Granted: 2007-05-01
Abstract: A nuclear density gauge and test method is provided for measuring density material in a relatively thin zone beneath a surface of the material. The gauge comprises a gauge housing and a substantially planar base on said gauge housing adapted to be positioned on a surface of the material sample. A gamma radiation source having a characteristic primary energy and an activity of no more than 100 microcurie is mounted within the housing and cooperates with the base for emitting gamma radiation through the base and into an underlying material sample. An energy selective gamma radiation detector is mounted within the gauge housing and in laterally spaced apart relation from the gamma radiation source. The gamma radiation detector is operable for quantifying the energy level of the detected gamma radiation. Shielding is provided within the gauge housing between the source and the detector for preventing gamma radiation from passing directly from said source to the detector. An analyzer is connected to the detector for detecting gamma radiation counts in a predetermined energy spectrum having a lower limit of 0.1 MeV or greater and an upper limit which is less than the characteristic primary energy of said source. The density of the sample is calculated based upon the gamma radiation counts obtained by the analyzer within the predetermined energy spectrum.
