Title: Solar energy collector.
Inventor: KIRCHMAYER LEONHARD
IPC: F24J2/52
Filed: 1993-06-23
Abstract: A solar energy collector consists of a plurality of collector elements (5, 6, 7, 8) which can be secured on a preferably inclined supporting surface (2), for example a roof, and which have each a base body (9) with one or several collector channels lying in a plane (12) that faces the sun and connectable to a heat transfer fluid network, as well as possibly one or several absorber channels lying in a plane (13) transversely oriented to the collector channel. At least in the area of two parallel sides among its four sides, the base body (9) of the collector element is provided with a coupling stud (15) that extends transversely to the plane (14) of the base body, and at its opposite side, the base body (9) is provided with a coupling groove (17) whose dimensions are adapted to those of the coupling stud (15) and which receives the coupling stud (15) of the directly adjacent base body (9). Studs and grooves help to solidly anchor the base bodies to each other and at the same time to seal them with respect to the supporting surface. In order to be able to arrange the collector element both on north-south oriented roofs and on east-west oriented roofs without having to fear for leaks, at least on the side of the base body provided with the first coupling stud (15) that extends transversely to the plane (14) of the base body is arranged a second coupling stud (16) which extends in the same direction. A second coupling groove (18) associated to this second coupling stud and whose dimensions are adapted to those of the second coupling stud (16) is arranged at the opposite side of the base body (9).

Abstract: Un appareil destiné à compter et à vérifier des documents (10) comprend un ensemble débourreur (36a) amélioré et un réseau à commande numérique (6A). L'ensemble débourreur comporte une courroie à friction (38) qui tourne dans le sens contraire au sens d'introduction des documents dans l'appareil. On peut régler la tension de la courroie à friction en faisant tourner un élément excentrique (117). Le réseau à commande numérique coordonne les opérations de comptage et de vérification des documents. Un mécanisme de transport (2D) déplace les documents le long d'une voie de guidage (50) dans l'appareil. Des détecteurs (80, 82, 84, 86) sont placés le long de la voie de guidage afin de déterminer les caractéristiques optiques et magnétiques des documents et de produire des signaux en rapport. Les signaux mesurés sont échantillonnés et numérisés par un convertisseur analogique-numérique (304) sous la commande d'un microprocesseur (302). Des échantillons multiples des signaux des détecteurs sont accumulés dans la mémoire lorsque chaque document passe à côté des détecteurs. Les valeurs accumulées sont comparées à des valeurs de référence afin de vérifier chaque document après son passage à côté des détecteurs. Les documents sont comptés après vérification. On procède également à des comptages individuels et au calcul des valeurs monétaires en résultant.

Abstract: On obtient des apprêts de très faible brillance pour des revêtements pigmentés, pouvant durcir sous l'effet d'un rayonnement par l'inclusion d'une combinaison de photo-initiateurs dont un photo-initiateur d'oxyde d'acylphosphine et un second photo-initiateur tel qu'un dérivé d'acétophénone. Dans le procédé de production d'apprêts de faible brillance, le revêtement est d'abord exposé aux rayons ionisants (par ex. un faisceau électronique) dans l'air, puis aux rayons actiniques (lumière ultraviolette) dans une atmosphère essentiellement inerte. On obtient une faible brillance par un effet de craquellement d'une surface fine, uniforme.

Abstract: In a paper ejection device for a stencil printing device provided with a lifting member for producing a curvature in each sheet of ejected printing paper as seen in a cross section perpendicular to the direction of paper ejection, the lifting member is allowed to move at least between a first position which is relatively retracted from the paper ejection passage and a second position which relatively protrudes into the paper ejection passage. The movement of the lifting member may be effected according to the size or the kind of the printing paper or depending on whether a sorter is connected to the printer or not. Thus, an appropriate curvature can be given to the ejected printing paper without requiring any manual work by the user. Thus, a satisfactory paper ejecting operation can be ensured at all times without requiring any manual work by the operator of the stencil printing device.

Patent EP-0700497-A1 (EP)
Title: Improved steam desuperheater
Inventor: FEISS ROY L
IPC: F22G5/12
Filed: 1993-12-13
Abstract: A desuperheater is disclosed which employs an acceleration orifice within a steam conduit to increase the velocity of steam flowing therethrough, creating a region of low pressure steam. A nozzle having an enclosed elliptical discharge orifice sprays small droplets of cooling water in a semi-elliptical hollow cone pattern directly into the region of low pressure steam flow. Evaporization of the cooling water into the steam is optimized allowing effective control of the steam temperature. Nozzle fouling and plugging is reduced because the droplet size created by the nozzle is small in comparison to the nozzle orifice.
