Title: Rubber compounds.
Inventor: HALLSWORTH ERNEST GORDON
IPC: C08K5/05
Filed: 1992-05-27
Abstract: Disclosed are formulations of rubbers arising from a surprising finding of the effects of addition of compounds formed between certain metal compounds and polyhydric alcohols which contain terminal -CH2OH group or groups connected to an adjacent -COH group to rubber or rubber-like compounds. More specifically disclosed are methods of modifying the friction coefficient of rubber and the adhesion to metal characteristics, and to the rubber so modified. The compounds disclosed have a metal bonded via an oxygen residue of these hydroxyl groups. Polyhydroxy alcohols that might be used to form the compounds are, for example, the alcohols mannitol, xylitol, erythritol and isomers, other polyhydric alcohols such as for example ethanediol or a propanediol or propanetriol or 1,2 butanediol or 1,2,3 butanetriol and polyvinyl alcohols and similar compounds or substituted compounds such as 2-stearo-1,3-propandiol and similar compounds. Metals of metal oxygen-containing compounds which may be combined or bonded as described with the hydroxyl groups of suitable polyhydroxy organic compound are for example, cobalt, iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, bismuth, nickel and/or chromium. The metal oxygen-containing compounds may be oxides, hydroxides, organo-metal compounds such as stearates and/or the oxy-salts of these metals, for example carbonates.

Inventor: GOTTSCHALD LUTZ
IPC: B24B9/14
Filed: 1992-07-01
Abstract: Selon un procédé de fabrication d'un verre cerclé de lunettes, on produit premièrement un verre de lunettes fini d'un seul côté et pas encore cerclé selon une forme circulaire prédéterminée, c'est-à-dire une ébauche avec une seule surface efficace finie, puis on produit pendant une étape supplémentaire de fabrication la surface dite d'ordonnance, le cas échéant en optimisant l'épaisseur critique. Ce procédé se caractérise par la combinaison des étapes suivantes: la forme circulaire prédéterminée est enregistrée sous forme de jeu de données; la position de la deuxième surface (surface d'ordonnance) est calculée, le cas échéant en minimisant l'épaisseur critique, sur la base du jeu de données mémorisé concernant la forme circulaire prédéterminée et du contour de la surface déjà finie de l'ébauche; la surface d'ordonnance est ensuite produite, en même temps ou après le cerclage de l'ébauche en fonction de la forme circulaire prédéterminée; après la fabrication de la surface d'ordonnance, le verre retenu dans un logement est cerclé, facetté et poli dans sa zone marginale au moyen du jeu de données mémorisé.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for generating a halftone image. An ensemble of correlated minimum visual modulation two-dimensional binary patterns are provided. Each pattern corresponds to one density level of a digital input signal. The set of patterns is generated simultaneously by minimizing an ensemble cost function which is the variance of non-zero spatial frequencies weighted by a human visual system modulation transfer function. The patterns are then modularly addressed to select bits to form halftone pattern.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for calibrating a calorimetric flow monitoring device with respect to a medium which is to be measured, which has a sensor element which forms a temperature-dependent resistance and produces a brief heating effect by means of Joule heat and whose change in resistance, which represents a measure of the flow of velocity of a medium flowing past the sensor element, is measured. For a prescribed medium, the resistance value R0 of 0 flow and the resistance value Rmax for maximum flow stipulate a prescribed measurement range Rmax-R0. The invention is characterized in that for a medium which is respectively to be measured and deviates from the prescribed medium an electric circuit is used to measure     - the resistance value Rx of the sensor element for 0 flow, - the resistance value Ry of the sensor element in the case of maximum operating flow, and - to bring the measurement range Ry-Rx bounded by the resistance values Rx, Ry automatically into coincidence with the prescribed measurement range Rmax-R0 after the starting value and end value by means of displacement and stretching.

Abstract: The invention relates to a ceramic colour paste, in particular to a colour paste containing alkyd resins, for producing decorations on surfaces composed of glass, porcelain or ceramic and to a printing medium for producing the colour paste. Known congeneric colour pastes and printing media for producing same generally have an intensive odour and, if an alkyd resin is present, tend to form a skin. The invention overcomes these disadvantages as a result of the fact that the solvent system of the printing medium of the colour paste contains essentially at least 50 to 100% by weight, preferably above 70% by weight, of one or more isoparaffins and 0 to 50% by weight, preferably 0 to 30% by weight, of one or more solvatising plasticisers. Skinning is prevented by the presence of an aldoxime or ketoxime having 3 to 6 carbon atoms or of an antioxidant for polymer systems.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing element for guiding test air to or from rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry, which consists of elastic material and has an axially displaceable bottom wall with a passage for the test air as well as an annular sealing lip which is deformed radially depending upon the displacement of the bottom wall. By means of the invention, the risk of damage to the sealing element by sharp edges of the articles to be tested is intended to be reduced. According to the invention, this is achieved by an annular depression (13) which faces away from the article end surface being provided in the region (12) in which sealing lip (9) and bottom wall (4) adjoin one another (transition region) at their surfaces (9a or 4a) adjacent to the article (8, 8a). As a result of the invention, the service life of sealing elements of the type mentioned in the introduction is considerably increased. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Dispensing of water quantities is achieved directly on the tap 1 by means of a flow transmitter 10 which is arranged in a bypass 7 to the water supply pipe 6. The value of the water quantity determined by the flow transmitter 10 is transmitted via a measuring lead 14 to an indicator 4 which is integrated in the head part 3 of the tap 1. The water quantity needed for cookery and for the preparation of drinks can thus be read out or set-in directly on the tap 1, which is of considerable advantage, especially in the preparation of convenience foods such as dried soups, cakes, desserts, etc. By means of the integration of the flow transmitter 10 into the bypass 7 and the integration of the indicator 4 into the head part 3 of the tap 1, even the smallest water quantities can be directly determined and indicated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The composition comprises highly nutritious powder of gourd fruit which is available as solid nutritious food or nutritious beverages. The gourd powder composition contains the powder of gourd fruit, creaming syrup and possible L-ascorbic acid. The other nutritious ingredient can be added if necessary. When supplied as beverages, the foaming agents can be added thereto. The L-ascorbic acid is used mainly for the purpose of removing the grassy-smelling peculiar to the gourd. The creaming syrup is used to have the powder of gourd fruit deflocculated in the liquid. If the foaming agents are added thereto, the powder of gourd fruit is more easily deflocculated in the liquid and the cooling beverage like cream soda can be made.

Abstract: The invention relates to precision analog-digital converters. For fine conversion, supplying the low-order bits (B0 to Bk) of an analog voltage Vin to be converted, three ordinary differential amplifiers (ADA, ADB, ADC) are used, connected to three voltage references VR(i-1), VR(i), VR(i+1). These three amplifiers supply differential output voltages (VAa, VAb, VBa, VBb, VCa, VCb) which vary as a function of Vin according to the usual transfer functions for differential amplifiers. The points of intersection of these various transfer curves are detected in interpolation circuits (CIT1 first, then CIT2, etc.). These points of intersection serve as intermediate voltage references between the principal references. Comparators (CMP0 ... CMPk), placed at the output of the interpolation circuits, supply bits (B0 to Bk) indicating the value of Vin with respect to each of these intermediate references. Thus the use of signal-aliasing circuits necessary in the prior art is avoided. <IMAGE>
