Abstract: This invention relates to an environmental coupling that reduces spillage to less than 1 mL. The coupling includes a first convex ball valve and a second concave ball valve. One ball valve includes flat surfaces on the ball and a retainer with "flats" that correspond to the "flats" on the ball valve. This feature keeps the ball valve on centerline and allows valve actuation without damage to either ball valve. The coupling also provides other numerous safeguards against spillage. For instance, the coupling has handles with concave and convex edges to prohibit the wrong sequencing of opening and closing the ball valves, interlocking means to prevent the uncoupling of the annular bodies of the ball valves when the first ball valve is in the open position, and a handle button release and secondary handle lock.

Abstract: Dissolved iron present in a sulphate electrolyte used to coat steel strip is removed by taking part of the electrolyte and adding an oxidising agent to oxidise the iron to Fe<3+>. The Fe<3+> is then precipitated from solution by adding ZnO or ZnCO3-water suspension as the pH is raised. Any excess ZnO or ZnCO3 is dissolved in the electrolyte by adding more fresh electrolyte. The precipitated iron is filtered out and the regenerated electrolyte recycled back to the bath. The apparatus for carrying out the process is also claimed. It comprises a coating cell (20) and means for guiding the strip (40) to be coated through it as well as means (43,44) for producing circulation of the electrolyte through the coating cell. The appts. is novel in that it has a reactions container (2) with a stirrer (8) which is connected to the coating cell (20) of the galvanising bath (15) via a take-off conduit (21) and a return conduit (22). An additional container (4) for oxidising agent having a connecting conduit (26) and a dosing pump (27) as well as a further additional container (3) for a ZnO and/or ZnCO3 water suspension also having a connecting conduit (23) and a dosing pump (24) are connected to the reactions container (2). The dosing pump (24) is actively connected to a pH indicator (30) and the dosing pump (27) is actively connected to a measuring instrument (28) for determining the oxygen content in the electrolyte. A filter (5) for solids is located in the return conduit (22).

Abstract: Optical network for signal transfer from a central station to subscriber stations. The signal to be distributed is split in at least two stages, with the signal being amplified by optical amplifiers. The Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFAs) to be used for this purpose are fed by an optical supply signal. By building up the supply signal from various signals with wavelengths lying closely together, Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) is avoided. As a result, by utilising centrally supplied EDPAs more splitting stages may be applied, as a result of which many more subscribers may be reached from one signal source than before. The subscribers may utilise inexpensive, low-sensitivity receivers. The optical network is particularly suited to form, in conjunction with a conventional non-optical (twisted-pair) network, a hybrid bi-directional transmission system. In this connection, the optical network is intended for the distribution of wide-band signals (CATV) and the non-optical network for bi-directional transfer of narrow-band signals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A wine closure replaces the traditional cork and foil and includes a gasket/stopper which engages into the neck of the bottle. Encasing the finish and upper neck of the bottle is a plastic outer closure cap, generally cylindrical, with a top center disc which is adhered to the top of the stopper. A circle of frangible elements at the periphery of the disc provide for breakage of the disc away from the sleeve, causing it to remain with the stopper when the plastic cap is opened. Coarse, short-length threads are formed on the outside of the container neck, spaced appreciably below the finish, to be engaged by internal thread lugs of the plastic cap. On initial unscrewing of the cap, the disc breaks away from the remainder of the cap. A small vertical clearance is provided in the engagement between the internal cap structure and the gasket/stopper, so that the cap does not begin to lift the gasket/stopper until static friction against the elastomeric gasket/stopper has been overcome.

Abstract: Oil coagulant compositions, and methods of using such compositions to coagulate the oil that has been spilled on water are prepared from a thermal reaction utilizing an oil component selected from the group consisting of glycerides, fatty acids, alkenes and alkynes, and a copolymer component. Representative polymers include, for example, isobutyl methacrylate polymers, and representative oil components include, for example, glycerides such as those derived from a drying oil such as linseed oil. The composition of the present invention floats on the water surface and coagulates oil independent of both agitation and temperature, and can be used in both salt and fresh water. After the coagulant has coagulated the spilled oil, the floating coagulated oil can be readily removed from the water by mechanical means such that at least 99.9% of the oil is removed from the water and only a faint trace of oil remains in the water. An alternate way of using the composition is to incorporate it into a porous substrate, which substrate is then applied to the spilled oil. Preferably, the porous substrate is a floatable material, enabling the product to keep afloat Group 5 oils or asphalt.
