Abstract: Process for the production of aluminium sulphate, starting from the residual slimes of plants for the anodic oxidation of aluminium, according to the reaction:  2Al(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 ----- Al2 (SO4)3 + 6H2O According to the process slimes (1) undergo a homogenizing treatment (2) which allows them to be subsequently conveyed up to and into the reactor (4). The reaction temperature is kept between 90 DEG C and 160 DEG C, in order to allow the complete conversion of the aluminium hydroxide, and the reaction products are then freed by filtering (7) from any insoluble residues and impurities at a temperature not lower than 40 DEG C. The invention also comprises a special pump for conveying said slimes.

Abstract: A spring coil (11) has an open-ended terminal convolution (11b, 11c) which is connected to the body (11a) of the coil through a gradient arm (20) which can be varied in length in manufacture to alter the spring compression and firmness. Offset portions (12, 13, 14) are formed on each terminal convolution with a major straight part (13a) which is outwardly spaced from minor straight parts (13c) for a three point engagement for the offset portion to a border wire (18). The offset portions (12, 14) have inside (25a) and outside (25b) shoulders adjacent their ends, with the pitch of joing cross-helicals (17) chosen so that a cross-helical simultaneously engages the outside shoulders of a pair of overlapped offset portions (12, 14). The spring rows are further arranged across the width of the mattress, with the columns extending along the length. Cross-helicals (28) can then be used across portions of the width for extra firmness for the entire mattress, or for selected areas, such as the middle third.

Abstract: Medical instruments, which may include brass, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel, or plastic parts are sterilized or disinfected in an anti-microbial solution. The anti-microbial effect of a strong oxidizing agent, such as peracetic acid, is improved with a wetting agent. The solution further includes a triazole or other component for inhibiting the corrosion of copper and brass. Phosphates or other buffering agents adjust the oxidizing agent generally to a neutral pH for preventing the corrosion of steel. Molybdates or analogous compounds also buffer the pH and inhibit corrosion of aluminum by the oxidizing agent. The corrosion inhibiting is enhanced by the wetting agent. Optionally, a sequestering agent is provided for inhibiting hard water precipitation.

Abstract: A method of forming a composite extrusion is disclosed wherein a main body portion (1) of the extrusion is first extruded from a thermosetting material, this body portion then being heated so as at least partly to cure it, the main body portion then being passed at high temperature through a further extruder where a thermoplastics material (8) is extruded onto one or more surfaces of the main body portion (1), the subsequent composite extrusion then being cooled and formed into its final shape. It is important that the combining step be undertaken at a temperatue high enough to cause the thermoplastics material to bond to the thermosetting material and while it is simplest for the thermoplastics material to be on an outer surface of the composite extrusion, it is possible for it to be located within the thermosetting material by extruding the thermosetting material in an "opened out" state and then after extruding the thermoplastics and while the extrusion is still hot, folding in edge regions of the main body to overlie the thermoplastics material and bond thereto. The thermoplastics material may be of a special colour, may be embossed, and if it is located within the thermosetting material in the end product, may be stiffer than the latter. The invention also extends to the extrusions themselves.

Abstract: In a cargo handling vehicle provided with a boom and a bucket, such as a shovel loader or a wheel loader, the agreement of an actual angle of the bucket with respect to the ground surface with a preset angle is detected after the starting of an automatic pivotal movement thereof, and the moment this agreement has been detected, the automatic pivotal movement of the bucket is stopped. A deviation of the actual angle of the bucket with respect to the ground surface from the preset angle is thereafter determined, and the angle of the bucket is corrected so that this deviation becomes zero. Accordingly, even when the boom is turned after the bucket is stopped, the bucket is retained at the preset angle.

Abstract: An automatic dispenser for lubricants or the like comprises a container, said container having a closed, expansible body filled with electrolytes and a space filled with lubricant or the like. Prior to use, a galvanic element is lodged in a borehole or the like sealed against the electrolyte by means of a seal or the like. When the dispenser is set in operation, the seal is brought into contact with the electrolyte, thereby initiating the electrochemical generation of gas. This results in an increase in pressure in the expansible body, which expands, forcing the lubricant or the like out of the space filled with lubricant or the like. To prevent the dispenser being set in operation inadvertently, to simplify storage and to permit selective combination of various components, the galvanic element (20) is arranged prior to initial use in a cavity (19) in an insert (17) which can be inserted in the container (1), said cavity being sealed by a detachable or destructible foil (21) or the like, and the through borehole (11) in the container for receiving the insert (17) is also sealed against the space (14) containing the electrolyte by a foil (12) or the like which can be detached or destroyed when the insert (17) is inserted.

Title: Aqueous artist's paint
IPC: C09D5/06
Filed: 1990-01-09
Granted: 1993-05-19
Abstract: An aqueous artist's paint based on a water-soluble saccharide, a natural dye, a filler and optionally other additives is described. This artist's paint is distinguished in that it contains about 5 to 60% by weight of a water-insoluble polysaccharide as the filler. The artist's paint prepared analogously to the prior recipe has a pasty consistency which makes it suitable as a child's paint. It can be applied as a paint by brush or finger. This child's paint is largely made up of natural, renewable constituents, is toxicologically harmless and can be washed out with customary detergents from nearly all textiles, even with cold water. In spite of these outstanding advantageous features, it is to be compared without hesitation, with respect to its paint properties, with conventional aqueous artist's paints for children.

Abstract: This invention is concerned with copolymers containing, as copolymerized monomer units, units of aliphatic monoethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid such as maleic acid, and units of at least one comonomer selected from monoethylenically unsaturated monocarboxylic acids, such as acrylic acid, and carboxyl-free monoethylenically unsaturated monomers, such as alkyl esters of acrylic acid. This invention is particularly concerned with the use of low levels of copper ions in an aqueous emulsion polymerization process to promote copolymerization of the above-mentioned monomers at high conversion while maintaining and improving molecular weight control. The copolymers are useful primarily as antiscalants, dispersants, hard surface cleaners, detergent builders and incrustation inhibitors.

Abstract: Véhicule à éléments multiples, notamment autobus articulé présentant une liaison articulée comportant une couronne de pivotement entre deux éléments (21, 22) du véhicule. Les éléments du véhicule sont liés entre eux le long de l'axe longitudinal, tout en étant essentiellement solidarisés en torsion.  Dans le cas d'inégalités de terrain, des contraintes élevées de torsion devront donc être transmises par l'intermédiaire de la couronne de pivotement. Alors que dans les couronnes de pivotement traditionnelles, les cercles (1, 3) formant la couronne sont stabilisés vis-à-vis de ces contraintes en les assemblant au moyen d'entretoises, il est prévu, selon l'invention, d'agencer le cercle extérieur (1) de la couronne de pivotement en le dotant d'une rigidité suffisante pour qu'il forme lui-même ces entretoises. On diminue de cette façon la hauteur de la structure, tout en simplifiant la construction.
