Title: Water lance blower for cleaning heat exchangers.

IPC: B08B3/00
Filed: 1992-12-09
Abstract: A steam generator with a water lance sprayer for cleaning a surface of a heat exchangers of the steam generator, and more particularly combustion-chamber heat-transfer surfaces in steam boilers, can have an outlet opening swivel-type supported in the wall of the steam generator and its rear parts swivel-type suspended. Such a lance blower is provided with a polydirectional movability in a plane at the outlet opening of the water lance blower without contamination to ensure that the jet meeting the opposite boiler wall describes an exactly defined course. This is done by providing a flange at the outlet opening of the blowpipe, which flange can be attached to a segment of a cardan joint with the cardan joint being fastened in the combustion-chamber wall. The rear part of the blowpipe is preferably arranged in a guide, which guide is vertically shiftable on a vertical spindle, with the vertical spindle being shiftable, at the top and at the bottom thereof, horizontally on a horizontal spindle, and with the guide being formed by a housing that is non-rotatably positioned on the vertical spindle. The guide preferably carries a fork-shaped accommodation containing a cardan-shaped cage which internally is designed as a sleeve for holding the blowpipe in an axially shiftable manner.

Abstract: Wide laminated wooden beams require wide individual boards, which the forestry industry is not always able to provide owing to the intensive exploitation. Boards are glued to form a carpet and the latter is cut to the desired width. This production is expensive. Wide boards must be slotted before the gluing, because of the internal stress. A method is sought which satisfies both national- and forest-economic interests and makes it possible to produce wide laminated wooden beams from narrow boards, or, e.g. as is possible in the steel industry, to produce more load-bearing sections from a small amount of raw material by using UTI and hollow sections, the installations used also being used for normal production. This is achieved in that the gluing of lengthwise joints of a plurality of narrow boards for a given width of the laminated wooden beam in separate webs is automatically carried out and the boards are introduced, via the glue application, into the laminated wood press, glued and pressed, and [lacuna] is capable of producing corresponding sections and of transporting these for further processing or final processing. At the same time, this installation is capable of achieving very high outputs and of making conventional production considerably more economical. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multi-channel echo canceller comprises a set of subtractors connected respectively in communication channels for respectively receiving a signal from a respective microphone and cancelling an echo contained in it with a cancelling signal, and a set of adaptive filters associated respectively with the subtractors. Each adaptive filter has a set of vectors of filter coefficients. A time difference between propagation delays of the received signals is estimated, and a signal having the largest content of echo components is selected and applied to the adaptive filters. One of the coefficient vectors is identified according to the estimated time difference and the selected signal. Each adaptive filter varies its filter coefficients of the identified vector with a correction term proportional to the output of the associated subtractor for filtering the selected signal using the coefficients of the identified vector to derive an echo replica, which is supplied to the associated subtractor as the cancelling signal.

Abstract: Described is a method and apparatus for enveloping a series of absorbent cores (22) with a fluid-permeable layer which includes a first web supplying mechanism (48) for providing a first layer (50) of fluid-permeable material, and a depositing mechanism (52) for positioning a series of absorbent cores (22) on the first layer (50). Each of the absorbent cores (22) defines a periphery thereof and includes superabsorbent material therein. A second web supplying means (54) provides a second layer (56) of fluid-permeable material to sandwich the absorbent cores (22) between the first and second layers (50,56). A sealing mechanism (58) secures the first layer (50) to the second layer (56) along an attachment region thereof which is located adjacent to at least a pair of side edge regions of the absorbent cores (22). The attachment region is constructed to substantially prevent movement of superabsorbent material from the absorbent cores (22) through the attachment region. A separating mechanism (62) removes selected regions of the first and second layers (50,56) which are located adjacent to the attachment region and are spaced from the absorbent cores (22).

Abstract: A dye couple, comprising 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) and 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS), is used as an indicator in a reaction cascade producing a strong oxidizing agent, such as hydrogen peroxide or other peroxides or perborates. The strong oxidizing agent reacts with the dye couple to produce a blue dye stuff. The MBTH-ANS dye couple exhibits strong and flat spectral absorption at the region of about 600 to 650 nm. This region is free of blood color interference, which enables one to measure glucose and other analytes that react with an oxidase enzyme to produce the strong oxidizing agent, through the use of LED optics, accurately without much optic calibration. Further, the MBTH and ANS are very soluble in aqueous solution, yet become insoluble upon oxidative coupling. The poor solubility minimizes dye fading, thus providing a stable endpoint.

Abstract: An adaptive technique for video encoding and decoding which facilitates the transmission, reception, storage, or retrieval of a scalable video signal. The invention allows this scaling to be performed in both the spatial and frequency domains. In a specific embodiment of the invention, video encoding is adaptively performed based upon a selection from among a multiplicity of compatible spatial-domain predictions from previously decoded images, and a selection of compatible predictions obtained from up-sampling decoded lower resolution images. The decoded lower resolution images correspond to a current temporal reference, and at least one of these lower resolution images is encoded in more than one frequency domain scales. In yet another embodiment of the invention, one lower resolution signal is encoded (without reference to any other low resolution signal) by employing the MPEG-1 standard, with a modified partitioning of the resultant bitstream into two or more frequency scale bitstreams. The decoded images from these bitstreams are employed in the spatial prediction of a higher resolution layers.

Abstract: A suction control valve for a screw compressor is fitted into the suction line which it alternately clears or closes. The suction control valve, which is designed as a double-seat valve, has a closure body (17) assigned to which there are two confronting valve seats, a return-flow seat (7) and an intake seat (9). As the screw compressor starts up, the closure body (17) is pulled, by the suction pressure produced in the process, onto the intake seat (9). As soon as a certain operating pressure is reached, the closure body (17), via a servo-cylinder (10) with a servo-piston (11), is lifted from the intake seat (9) by the pressure medium and moved into an intermediate position between its two seats (7, 9) so that the screw compressor is able to deliver at its full capacity. As soon as the screw compressor is switched off, a weak spring (18) supported on the valve housing (1) forces the closure body (17) onto the back-flow seat (7) and seals this tightly so that neither pressure medium nor oil, injected for lubricating the screw compressor, can flow back into the intake line. <IMAGE>
