Patent CA-2400500-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WANG XIEQING
IPC: C10G11/18
Filed: 2001-02-26
Abstract: A stripper and a stripping process for removing the flue gas carried by regenerated catalyst. A cylindrical stripper mainly comprises a degassing pipe at the longitudinal axis, a horizontal pipe connected with the lower end of the degassing pipe, several sets of inner annular baffles and outer annular baffles arranged in alternative arrangement along the vertical direction. Inner annular baffles are fixed on the degassing pipe, outer annular baffles are fixed on the inner wall of the cylinder. The degassing pipe has holes below each set of the inner annular baffles. The regenerated catalyst enters the stripper from the upper part, comes into a countercurrent and crosscurrent contact with steam from the annular steam conduit, and the stripped regenerated catalyst leaves the stripper from the bottom. The removed flue gas and the excessive steam enter the degassing pipe through the opening part of the degassing pipe under each set of inner annular baffles and leave the stripper from the top under the action of steam or air from the horizontal pipe. Using this stripper can minimize the amount of the flue gas carried by regenerated catalyst.

Abstract: An agricultural plough has a longitudinally extending support member having a forward portion to be attached to a vehicle to thereby enable the apparatus to be towed by the vehicle. A pair of axles extend laterally from opposite longitudinal sides of the support member and provide a pair of laterally extending rotational axes. The axes are on opposite sides of the support member at acute angles longitudinally so as to extend rearwardly, the acute angles being 8 to 10 degrees to a plane extending normal to the support member to diverge rearwardly. Plough discs are supported on the axles to rotate about the rotational axes, with the discs and axles being configured so that the discs converge rearwardly and downward. The discs are displaced rearwardly from the forward portion. A wheel is attached to the support member and rotatable about an axis generally transverse of the support member, the wheel being rearward of the axles, whereby the discs are urged into soil and the wheel is urged into contact with a soil surface rearwardly of the discs so that upon forward movement of the vehicle, the discs form respective grooves and a ridge between the grooves, with the ridge being engaged by the wheel to urge the soil to cover seeds located in the grooves.

Title: Single crystal gan substrate, method of growing same and method of producing same
Inventor: MOTOKI KENSAKU
IPC: C30B25/02
Filed: 2002-09-13
Abstract: Seeds are implanted in a regular pattern upon an undersubstrate. A GaN crystal is grown on the seed implanted undersubstrate by a facet growth method. The facet growth makes facet pits above the seeds. The facets assemble dislocations to the pit bottoms from neighboring regions and make closed defect accumulating regions (H) under the facet bottoms. The closed defect accumulating regions (H) arrest dislocations permanently.  Release of dislocations, radial planar defect assemblies and linear defect assemblies are forbidden. The surrounding accompanying low dislocation single crystal regions (Z) and extra low dislocation single crystal regions (Y) are low dislocation density single crystals.

Abstract: An edge-folded steel head combined shoe insole has a groove defined in a front end and two sides of the insole. The insole is also provided with an inner welt downwardly extended peripherally thereunder, and is thickened gradually from a rear end to a front end. The depth of the groove is shorter than the thickness of the inner welt so that a folded edge of the steel head can be inserted in the groove.  This avoids conflict of a sewing needle to the folded edge of the steel head when sewing the vamp onto the inner welt of the insole, thereby the steel head is well supported to have shoe's strength heightened.
