Inventor: OTT WALTER DR
IPC: A01G7/00
Filed: 1988-10-21
Abstract: A method for introducing gas like oxygen, air or carbon dioxide into water, in which a water flow enriched in the gas is passed through a reaction chamber so that the flow rotates around and moves along the longitudinal axis, a sudden pressure minimum is provided in a section of this axis where gas comprised in the flow gets collected and mixed with vapor, the pressure is increased after the minimum, whereby gas is swallowed by water so that gas molecules get bound to water molecules. 
     The apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a closed recirculating path with the reaction chamber (15), the flow is maintained by a pump (14), and the gas is introduced in the water either by a vortex stream or by a water jet pump. 
     The so obtained water comprises the gas in stable and bound state in a concentration exceeding normal saturation. 
     The dielectric constant and certain physical parameters of such water differ from those of pure water.

Abstract: A process for producing copper rod having an improved surface smoothness and substantially no surface oxides, which rod is suitable for drawing or rolling into wire, is disclosed. The process com­prises the steps of forming a bath of molten pure copper, casting the molten copper into a cast bar, conditioning the bar for hot-rolling, hot-rolling the bar to form a hot-rolled rod, cooling the hot-­rolled rod and chemically shaving and pickling the hot-rolled rod. The chemical shaving and pickling step is performed with a solution containing con­trolled concentrations of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide. Both the solution and the rod are maintained at elevated temperatures and the duration of the reaction is controlled. The inter­related process variables are regulated so that substantially all of the surface oxides and a desired amount of copper are removed from the surface of the hot-rolled rod.

Abstract: Cleaning apparatus for cleaning e.g. beer kegs 10 comprises an elongate tank 11 containing a cleaning liquid up to a level 12. Kegs are lowered into the liquid along a rollway by rollers 15 mounted on driven endless chains 17, and are then pushed along the tank by the rollers. Bars 24a, 24b, 24c extend along the tank above the liquid level and cause the kegs to become immersed to an extent such that as the kegs rotate, their whole surface passes through the liquid. Rotation of the kegs is caused by friction material or the undersides of the bars (24a,24b,24c). Ultrasonic transducers (28) secured to the sides of the tank emit ultrasonic sound waves through the liquid and produce a vigorous cleansing action on the kegs. At the other end of the tank the kegs are driven up an inclined rollway by the rollers and are rinsed by water jets.

Abstract: In the case where data is transferred between plural electronic devices, conventionally, there occurs a problem of large structural size, so that the constituent elements responsible for data transfer remained idle in a certain aspect of data transfer operation and were vain, and the transfer speed was slow. In the invention, the degree of concern of the software with the data transfer action is reduced, and the processing range is expanded by the hardware. At the same time, the constituent elements are effectively utilized. As a result, the data transfer speed and the related signal processing speed are enhanced, while the structure may be relatively reduced in size.

Title: Powermeter for a crank drive.
Inventor: SCHOBERER ULRICH
IPC: A61B5/22
Filed: 1988-07-06
Abstract: In a device for measuring the power of a crank drive in which the torque is transmitted from the crank (1) to a drive disk (2), for example to the face of the bottom bracket ball bearing of a bicycle, the mechanical parameters, torque and angular speed of the crank are converted to electric signals. The force (K) exerted on the crank via a deformation element (3), for example a flexible element, is transmitted to the drive disk (2) and the deformation of the deformation element (3), which is a measure of the force (K), is converted to an electric signal by elongation gauges (6), inductive displacement sensors, or piezoelectric crystals. The angular speed of the crank (1) is measured by a reed contact, a light barrier, an induction loop, or a mechanical tachometer. When this type of power measurement is applied to a bicycle, the pedalling power is not converted to braking heat as in the case of stationary ergometers, but can be converted to forward movement of the bicycle.

Title: Multifunctional physical exercising apparatus and process for controlling it
Inventor: ANGELLOZ LOUIS
IPC: A63B21/008
Filed: 1988-08-23
Abstract: A physical exercising apparatus comprises an exercising element (100) displaced by a user, a motor device (120) which controls the movement of the exercising element by appplying to it a counter-reaction force, control means (300, 310, 320) which pilot the motor device according to a predetermined sequence which associates each position reached by the exercising element whith a value of the rate of displacement and/or a value of the counter-reaction force. The process for controlling the apparatus comprises cycles which consist in provoking, during displacement of the exercising element according to the initial predetermined sequence, an abrupt forward and/or backward movement between 0.1 and 5 degrees, and then in continuing the displacement of the element according to the initial displacement sequence. The apparatus thereby permits an excitation of the  gamma  innervation loop during the exercises.

Abstract: It is proposed for the treatment of sewage sludge in the sense of recycling that the dried sewage sludge is subjected in a fractional pyrolysis initially to a low-temperature conversion under anaerobic conditions around 300 DEG C to remove the organic carbon in the form of oil and then to incinerate the remaining carbon with input of pure oxygen at a temperature above 1,250 DEG C. This leads to a sintering of the inorganic constituents of the sewage sludge comparable to that employed for producing cement. The inorganic material obtained by sintering has a composition similar to that of cement so that it can be used, similar to blast furnace slag for example, as additive to Portland cement for use in concrete. The process according to the invention makes it possible, by sensible utilisation of the high energy content of sewage sludge and despite the high energy requirement, for operation to be substantially energy- autarchic i.e. substantially independent of supply of energy from outside.

Abstract: In a pneumatic actuator with locking means in end positions, especially for actuating smoke extractor flues in smoke and heat extracting installations, a double-ended piston (9) can be displaced by a pressure medium in a mating cylinder with two cylinder chambers (9a, 9b). For the purpose of reliable locking of the end positions, on both sides outside the closed cylinder chambers (9a, 9b) and in each case adjacent to one of said cylinder chambers a locking piston (3 or 4) can in each case be displaced concentrically with the piston rod (10), which locking piston is connected to the adjacent cylinder chamber (9a or 9b) in a manner conducting pressure medium. Each locking piston (3 or 4) has a sleeve-like section (e.g. 4a) which in one locking position embraces radially guided balls (ii). In this arrangement, the balls partially engage in an annular groove (e.g. 10a) connected to the piston rod (10). The sleeve-like section releases the balls radially outwards when it is moved away axially from them. In one embodiment of the pneumatic actuator, this locking device can be supplemented as a double-stroke cylinder by means of an additional locking rod on the piston rod and a pressure-controlled reversing valve, which actuates an additional locking piston co-operating with the additional locking rod. <IMAGE>
