Title: Closing and controlling device for casting fluid metal melts
IPC: B22D41/08
Filed: 1988-12-21
Granted: 1992-04-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a closing and control device (3) for the casting of a fluid metal melt contained in a metallurgical vessel (1), in particular when approaching the final dimension in continuous casting, for example in the continuous casting of strip, or when casting thin slabs, the vessel having at least one elongate outlet (2). According to the invention, this closing and control device is characterised essentially in that associated with the outlet are a refractory stator (6) and a rotor (7) arranged in the latter, which adjoin one another with circular-cylindrical working faces (8, 9) and are provided with interacting openings (4, 5) extending over essentially the entire length of the stator and the rotor for the passage of the melt, the rotor being rotatable and/or axially displaceable relative to the stator.

Title: Vapour relase device
IPC: A23L3/00
Filed: 1988-01-06
Granted: 1993-02-10
Abstract: Device for controlled release of a vapour from a liquid, in particular for storing and dispersing food preservatives in a closed food container. The apparatus includes an absorbent strip sandwiched between two layers of non-woven fabric to form a non-woven fabric combination in a lattice network. This combination is then placed between two layers of plastic film which is then placed between plastic cover layers. The absorbent is impregnated with the said liquid, for example a food preservative. The layers of plastic film are advantageously impregnated with a second liquid providing a vapour, for example a food odour. The plastic cover layers are optionally sealed along their edges allowing the absorbent's vapour emission rate to be quantitatively controlled and regulated by means of prearranged perforations and/or selective opening of the sides and faces of the plastic cover layers.

Title: Systeme d'antennes a faisceau orientable utilisant une matrice de butler
Inventor: RENSHAW KENNETH H
IPC: H01Q19/17
Filed: 1987-11-23
Granted: 1993-11-10
Abstract: Un système d'antennes à faisceau orientable, destiné à être utilisé dans des systèmes de communication par satellite, comprend un réflecteur principal et un réseau d'antennes comportant plusieurs éléments d'alimentation. Le réseau d'antennes peut être positionné au niveau ou auprès d'au moins un point focal du réflecteur principal et ses éléments d'alimentation peuvent recevoir des micro-ondes provenant du réflecteur principal ou transmettre des micro-ondes en direction de ce même réflecteur. Une matrice de Butler (110), comportant de multiples ports d'entrée (158) et de multiples sorties (156), est connectée au réseau des éléments d'alimentation et effectue essentiellement une transformation spatiale de Fourier sur un groupe de signaux produits à transmettre lesquels ont entre eux une relation de phase prédéterminée, qui est nécessaire à créer le faisceau orientable. La matrice de Butler peut également effectuer une transformation spatiale inverse sur un groupe de signaux d'arrivée focalisés sur le réseau par le réflecteur et reçus par les éléments d'alimentation. Par l'utilisation d'une matrice de Butler, le système d'antennes de la présente invention est capable de communiquer simultanément avec plusieurs stations au sol et avec un gain élevé, en utilisant de nombreux faisceaux ponctuels virtuels, orientés chacun sur un endroit distinct de la terre qui dépend de la fréquence relative du faisceau.

Abstract: Un détecteur de pression de pneus pour véhicules à moteur est introduit dans la jante (12) de l'une des roues du véhicule. Le détecteur comprend une chambre de pression de référence (18) qui est fermée sur le côté le plus proche du pneu par une membrane électroconductrice (20) et qui coopère avec une broche de contact isolée (22) introduite au centre à travers le plancher de la chambre de pression de référence (18) et avec un circuit oscillant connecté à la broche de contact (22). Afin de détecter une déformation de la membrane due à un dommage causé lors du montage du pneu ainsi qu'au moins deux valeurs seuils différentes de la pression du pneu, on introduit en plus de la broche de contact centrale (22) au moins un corps de contact isolé supplémentaire (34) dans le plancher (19a) de la chambre de pression de référence. Lors d'une déformation supplémentaire de la membrane, le corps de contact supplémentaire (34) touche la broche de contact (22), fermant ainsi un second circuit.

Abstract: Procédé de production d'un dispositif EL à film mince consistant à stratifier séquentiellement une première électrode composée d'une première couche conductrice, une première couche isolante, une couche photoluminescente, une deuxième couche isolante et une deuxième électrode sur un substrat. Une configuration correspondant à la première couche conductrice est formée à travers toute la zone de formation de la première électrode et une zone dans laquelle les bornes d'électrode doivent être formées, et est plongée dans une solution de placage pour former sélectivement la configuration terminale uniquement sur la première couche conductrice. Par conséquent, l'alignement des configurations est superflu et on peut obtenir des configurations terminales de grande précision simplement en plongeant le dispositif dans la solution de placage. Cet agencement garantit des caractéristiques stables pendant une longue période, sans préjudice pour le dispositif.

Abstract: In order to reduce environmental pollution, during manuring of meadow land a very narrow cut is made in the ground into which the liquid manure is introduced. It is of great importance that the liquid manure is dosed in the correct quantity. An excess of liquid manure pollutes the environment while an insufficient quantity inhibits plant development. To obtain a good dosing a manure pump (5) is used in a mobile turf layer manuring device, which pump (5) is driven by a motor (4) of which the speed of revolution can be continuously controlled. The dosed quantity is dependent on the travel speed of the device. In addition a reversing device is employed in order to change the flow direction of the liquid manure in the case of imminent blockage in order to prevent any such blockage.

Abstract: There is disclosed a filled paper composition comprising intact cellulose fibers and fillers wherein the cellulose fibers are originally never-dried, and wherein the filler material is in an insoluble precipitate formed in situ within the cell wall of the never-dried cellulose pulp fibers. The filled paper composition is characterized by having increased strength characteristics relative to a corresponding conventionally loaded paper composition containing the same amount of the same filler material. There is also disclosed a process for the production of filled paper using never-dried pulp fibers and filler comprising an insoluble precipitate that is precipitated in situ within the cell wall of the fibers. The process first immerses the never-dried pulp fibers in a first solution containing a soluble salt or salts, filters the pulp fibers from the first solution, and reimmerses the never-dried pulp fibers containing the first solution in the pores into a second solution, wherein the second solution comprises soluble salt or salts different from those of the first solution and able to form an insoluble precipitate with the salt or salts of the first solution. The filled, never-dried pulp fibers are filtered and washed and either used to form filled paper products or dried to filled pulp fibers for later use in papermaking.
