Title: Floor wiper
Inventor: FRANKE HANS-GEORG
IPC: A47L13/142
Filed: 1997-12-08
Abstract: A floor mopping device has a columnar shaft with a front end; a barrel surrounding the shaft and rotatable about the shaft; a disengageable clutch system connecting the shaft with the barrel in the wringing mode which restricts the relative rotatability of the shaft and barrel to one sense of rotation and in which an abutment of barrel, extending transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the shaft, is in engagement with a deflectable counter-abutment of the shaft. A number of flexible absorbent strips join together the end of the shaft and the barrel. The clutch system cooperates with a disengageable member affixed to the shaft which underreach the barrel in the area of an annular surface of the barrel facing the end of the shaft. The abutment on the barrel has a base which runs transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis. The counter-abutment of the shaft is associated with the abutment of the barrel with a form corresponding to its shape, the counter-abutment forming a component of a ring surrounding the shaft. The ring is mounted for axial displacement on the shaft and capable of being be pressed against the barrel when in the wringing mode by a spring disposed adjacent the ring.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved IC socket comprising a
housing having terminals 7 and an opening-and-closing
mechanism 13 to change the terminals 7 from a contact-making
position to a contact-releasing position. The
housing has a platform 6 to receive the lead wires 12 of
the IC, and a movable cover 14 activates a swingable
member 17 which rotates. The opening-and-closing
mechanism 13 is positioned so that the swingable member
17 tilts the opening-and-closing mechanism toward the
contact-releasing position when the movable cover 14 is
depressed. The device is designed as to leave between
the lead platform 6 and a contact end 8 a clearance  C ,
which is smaller than the thickness  T  of the lead wire 2.
Clearance  C  prevents any debris from sticking on the
contact end 8, assuring the reliability of electric
contacts with the lead wires of the IC. A flat cam
surface 18 on the swingable member 17 has a variable
operative slope which varies as the swingable member 17
tilts clockwise and then counterclockwise, so that
gradual and steep slopes are provided continuously as the
swingable member 17 swings about a pivot 16. This
continuous slope variation avoids any odd feeling when
the operator pushes the movable cover 15 down.

Abstract: The mixer uses appropriate local frequency signals to adjust frequency of input prior to amplification. A circuit with several parallel repeaters receives several FM signals with neighboring carrier frequencies within a given band. Within each repeater, a first mixer (ME1) receives the FM signals (F1 - F24) and produces a signal at an intermediate frequency (Fq) common to the repeaters and equal to the difference between the carrier frequency of the respective FM frequency (Fi) and a local frequency (Fli). A passband filter (FPB) filters the signal at the common frequency, and a second mixer (ME2) produces the FM signal with a carrier frequency equal to the sum of the common frequency and the respective local frequency.

a sealing effect. An outer shroud 32 is mounted through heat
insulating rings 32a and 32b on a blade ring 50, and this blade
ring 50 has air holes 1 and 51, of which the air hole 1
communicates with a space 53 whereas the air hole 51
communicates with a seal tube 2. This seal tube 2 is inserted
at its leading end portion 3 into the air hole 51, and a spring
6 is arranged between a projection 4 of the tube 2 and a
retaining portion 5 of the air hole 51 to fix the seal tube 2
removably. Cooling air 54 flows on one side from the air hole 1
into the space 53 to cool the shrouds and the inside of a
stator blade 31 until it is released from the trailing edge,
and on the other hand into a cavity 36 so that the inside of the
cavity 36 is kept at a high pressure without receiving a
pressure loss because the tube 2 is independent of the space 53.
The high pressure air from the cavity 36 flows out from seal
portions 40a and 40b, as indicated by arrows S1 and S2, to
prevent the inflow of the hot gas from a combustion gas passage.

IPC: F04B43/09
Filed: 1998-08-12
Abstract: Un puits souterrain contient le fluide d'un puits de forage, un système de pompage étant placé à l'intérieur de ce puits de forage, sur un conduit. Ce système de pompage est alimenté en énergie électrique par un conducteur et comprend une chambre, une soupape de décharge, et une soupape d'admission, destinée à introduire le fluide du puits de forage à l'intérieur de ladite chambre. Cette chambre contient un réservoir rempli d'un gel polymère réactif, dont le volume se modifie considérablement en réponse à des changements environnementaux: le gel se dilate lorsqu'il est électriquement stimulé, ce qui éjecte le fluide de la chambre, mais se contracte en l'absence de stimulation, ce qui dirige ce fluide vers cette chambre. Lorsque l'on fait passer un courant électrique à travers ce gel, celui-ci se dilate et se contracte tour à tour, de manière à enclencher le pompage du fluide du puits de forage. Ce gel peut en outre être formulé de manière à réagir à un champ magnétique. Dans ce mode de réalisation, le gel renferme des particules métalliques dont la température augmente lorsqu'elles sont exposées audit champ magnétique, cette hausse de température provoquant une augmentation importante du volume de ce gel. Grâce à l'application d'un courant électrique à une bobine entourant le réservoir, le champ magnétique traverse le gel, ce qui fait augmenter le volume de ce dernier. Lorsque l'on fait passer ce courant électrique à travers cette bobine, le gel se dilate et se contracte, de manière à actionner le pompage dudit fluide du puits de forage.
