Title: Method and installation for clarifying liquids and suspensions by sand ballast flocculation and decantation
Inventor: VION PATRICK
IPC: C02F1/52
Filed: 2000-10-11
Abstract: Process employing the technique of ballasted flocculation with a step of injection, into the liquid to be clarified, of a ballast consisting of a granular material and of a polymer, followed by a flocculation step which leads to the formation of a ballasted floc, and by an accelerated settling step, said ballast being recirculated into the flocculation step, either as it is or after cleaning, wherein said process includes two recirculation regimes:a high-energy regime ensuring draw-off of the ballast contained in the ballasted floc, removal of the floc in the form of sludge and recycling of the cleaned ballast into the flocculation unit and,a low-energy regime ensuring transfer of the ballasted floc into the flocculation unit as long as the ballast ratio in the flocculator is greater than a predetermined level, this low-energy regime remaining in service while the high-energy regime is being put into action, but then being shut down during the operation of the high-energy regime, the two systems being employed alternately so as to maintain the ballast ratio at a predetermined level.

Abstract: An engine-driven portable generator using an inverter
may still generate a voltage at its output terminals even though
the engine is stopped. In view of this problem, the invention
is to provide a portable generator, which is intended to prevent
any residual voltage from generating between the output
terminals. That is, a portable generator rectifying once an
AC voltage into a DC voltage, converting the DC voltage into
a single-phase AC voltage, and outputting the single-phase
AC voltage, which has an output-stop-control unit (443) that,
when an operating switch (305) is turned off, stops the
operation of the inverter circuit at the timing when the voltage
between the output terminals drops to 0, is provided.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for extending the use of phase shift techniques to implementation of masks used for complex layouts in the layers of integrated circuits, beyond selected critical dimension features such as transistor gates to which such structures have been limited in the past. The method includes identifying features for which phase shifting can be applied, automatically mapping the phase shifting regions for implementation of such features, resolving phase conflicts which might occur according to a given design rule, and application of sub-resolution assist features within phase shift regions and optical proximity correction features to phase shift regions. Both opaque field phase shift masks and complementary binary masks defining interconnect structures and other types of structures that are not defined using phase shifting, necessary for completion of the layout of the layer are produced.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for extracting data from non-standardized paper formats
into electronic files, such as databases. The system is particularly suited for compiling
data from engineering drawings and paper catalogs. A user interface presents an image
(1114) of the paper document along with a list of attributes (1212) from a database. The
user identifies regions of the image that contain relevant data, and highlights those
regions on the computer screen (1316). The system incorporates optical character
recognition (1410) to convert images of alphanumeric characters within each highlighted
region into computer readable data. The user associates each highlighted region with an
attribute (1318) so that data from the region gets stored as an attribute value. In one
embodiment of the invention, the user interface is constructed to process columns of data
directly into spreadsheets. One benefit of the invention is that parts lists can be quickly
compiled and edited from engineering drawings. Another benefit is that information from
paper catalogs can be quickly converted into computer data and subsequently stored into
electronic databases.

Abstract: A conveyor ratcheting apparatus for advancing a conveyor in one
direction in discrete steps. A ratchet arm is pivotally supported on a frame. A
ratchet actuator drives the arm reciprocally between first and second positions. A
ratchet wheel is rotatably supported on the frame. Circumferentially spaced teeth
are formed around an outer rim of the ratchet wheel. The ratchet arm sequentially
engages each of the teeth and causes the ratchet wheel to rotate in one direction
each time the ratchet arm engages one of the teeth and moves toward the second
position from the first position. The ratchet arm disengages whenever the ratchet
arm moves from the second position back toward the first position. A detent
engagement member is supported on the frame and is moveable into engagement
with one of four stop detents in the ratchet wheel when the first ratchet arm is in
the second position. The detent engagement member positively holds the ratchet
wheel and allows ratchet wheel rotation out of the second position only after
being disengaged. An actuator is operatively connected to the detent engagement
member and disengages the detent engagement member in response to ratchet
arm movement and before the ratchet wheel is rotated out of the second position.

medium from the heat transfer medium temperature adjusting device
1 via the by-pass line 11a. Thereby, at the time of heating, the
valve is switched to allow the heat transfer medium to pass through
the by-pass line 11, so that the heat transfer medium can be directly
supplied via the by-pass line 11 to the indoor unit 19. Hence, in
the heating operation, the devices such as pumps involving the
operation of the absorption chiller 5 can be stopped, so that the
air conditioner can be improved in the energy saving.
