Abstract: The punching device comprises as main component a solid block (1) in or on which all the active parts are mounted. An eccentric shaft (2), the eccentric journal (21) of which actuates the hole punch (5) by means of a connecting rod (4), is rotatably mounted in the upper part of the block in the bore (12). The hole punch is guided in the guide piece (51) which closes off the recess (10) at the bottom. The recess (10) turns into a mouth (11), on the projecting part (14) of which a hole die (53) is mounted. A drive motor (3) drives the eccentric shaft which performs one revolution for each punching cut. The block (1) together with its components forms a drive unit which is installed in a housing containing longitudinal stops. The device constructed in this way is compact, of simple construction, transportable and can be manufactured relatively inexpensively. It forms a useful tool in switchboard construction. <IMAGE>

IPC: E01C23/12
Filed: 1991-01-15
Abstract: The device consists of a mobile machine on which are mounted pile drivers (2,3,4,5) that are raised by the action of hydraulic jacks (7,8,9,10) operating pulley systems (25,26) whose rope ends are connected to the pile drivers (2,3,4,5). The complete units (20,21,22,23) can be tiled from the horizontal to their vertical working position by jacks (41). Oil is supplied under pressure from a pump (12) to the electro-hydraulic spool valves (18) that supply oil to the jacks (7,8,9,10) to raise the pile drivers. A pressure accumulator (14) is included in the feed line to improve the efficiency of the system. The discharge side from the jacks is via the electro-hydraulic spool valves (19) and piping (59) to tank. In this reflux circuit is a second accumulator (20) to enable a fast controlled discharge of the oil from the jacks as the pile drivers descend. The system is autom-ated by sensors (29) positioned at the top and bottom of the stroke to operate the valves (18,19).

Title: Method for manufacturing of subcutaneous capsules.
Inventor: HARTZELL ROLF
IPC: A61M31/00
Filed: 1991-03-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing subcutaneous capsules. The capsules are produced by cutting from a silicone tube lengths in excess of the final capsule length. The lenghts are arranged into rows including a defined number of them and in these rows they are filled and sealed. One end of the capsules is first sealed by glue dosaged into their openings. The material for the capsules is dosaged by an aperture disc glidable on a plane surface. By sweeping the upper surface of the disc the dosage volume is limited to the volume defined by the aperture. To regulate the packaging density of the material vibration may be used during the filling of the apertures. The dosaged material is conveyed to the capsule via a feeder funnel, through which a rotatable spiral spring, functioning as a filling screw, is inserted into the capsule to be filled.

Abstract: Système et procédé de gestion de trafic de réseau pour un réseau de communication à relais, tel que le service support de mode trame (en anglais FMBS), dans lequel les terminaux (A et B) sont reliés par des noeuds (N) qui acheminent les appels, consistant à mettre en place un signal de besoin de reprise sur un noeud qui rejette alors la trame. Le terminal de destination (B) est averti par la transmission d'une trame vide donnant lieu à un accusé de réception négatif que reçoit le terminal source (A). La trame rejettée est alors retransmise avec une fonction de signal de reprise. Dans le noeud (N), ledit signal de reprise est détecté et la trame est retransmise en direction du terminal de destination de manière habituelle; Si le signal de reprise n'est pas mis en place et que le signal de besoin de reprise est exigé, la trame est perdue. De cette manière, le reste du réseau n'est pas alourdi par la transmission de trames qui seront de toutes façons rejetées par le terminal de destination si la trame n'est pas reçue correctement. De plus, le fait de rejeter les trames qui, pour finir, ne sont pas transmises permet de contrôler avec plus de précision la transmission réussie de trames, de manière à permettre une facturation plus précise du client.

Abstract: An apparatus and a process for recycling used engine coolant employs a reverse osmosis process for separating ethylene glycol from a concentrate coolant solution. The engine coolant concentrate is pre-filtered through a series of filters and pressurized prior to being passed through a semi-permeable membrane. The membrane separates the feed stream into a permeate solution of ethylene glycol and water and a concentrate solution. The concentrate solution is returned to a concentrate tank for continuous circulation through the apparatus. A heat exchanger maintains the temperature of the concentrate solution below a pre-established threshold.
