Abstract: Ce débitmètre à force de Coriolis comporte des tubes d'écoulement pourvus d'ondulations dans leur partie dynamiquement active. Ces ondulations améliorent la souplesse des tubes de sorte qu'ils sont davantage sensibles aux forces de Coriolis générées et, partant, accroissent la sensibilité du débitmètre. Les ondulations présentes dans la partie droite du tube ont également pour effet de réduire les contraintes subies par le tubes, contraintes dues à des phénomènes d'origine thermique, lorsque le tube d'écoulement, au niveau de sa longueur axiale, subit des astreintes provoquées par un carter enveloppant ou un fléau, éléments auxquels il est rattaché. Les ondulations peuvent être ménagées sur le tube d'écoulement, de manière sélective, afin d'agir sur les réactions de type vibratoire en mode fondamental d'entraînement ainsi que sur ses harmoniques.

Abstract: Liquid in which oxygen-containing gas is to be dissolved is pumped through a main and distributed into faster-moving subsidiary streams. Each subsidiary stream passes through a turbulence-inducing means and air or oxygen is introduced into the turbulent region of alternate streams. The relative proportions of air to oxygen introduction are varied so as economically and efficiently to oxygenate the liquid. The gas-containing liquid passes through nozzles back into the volume of the liquid at sufficient velocity to cause further turbulence, making gas bubbles shear into smaller bubbles and also agitating the body of liquid. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The rotor can be moved in translation parallel to the X-X' axis inside the sleeve between a first position where the two means of coupling are matching to drive the helix in rotation and a second position where they do not interact or interact little, so the helix can be displaced relative to the sleeve without the two couplings interacting  The agitator comprises a union (5) which can be mounted in a sealed fashion in a wall (2a) of a receiver with a blind sleeve (10) inside which is fitted a rotor (20) supporting a first magnetic coupling (21). A helix (8) placed around the sleeve is equipped with a second magnetic coupling (17) to drive the helix around an axis (X-X') of rotation. The rotor can be moved in rotation around and parallel to the axis X-X' by a drive shaft (22) which is itself movable in rotation around and parallel to the X-X' axis between two positions corresponding to those of the rotor. The rotor has a central hollow to receive a screw for mounting the rotor on the shaft, with the screw placed along the X-X' axis. The rotor and/or shaft can be immobilized during their parallel movement in an intermediate position. The drive shaft is mounted to slide inside a hollow shaft which is the output from a reduction gear, with the two shafts fixed together in rotation. The hollow shaft has a screw which acts with a fillet fixed to the drive shaft. The parallel movement is controlled by a hydraulic or pneumatic jack. Process of controlling couple transmitted to a magnetic agitator as described above by controlling the position of the rotor along the X-X' axis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method of making submicron cemented carbide cutting tool inserts consisting of tungsten carbide and cobalt by the conventional methods wet milling of powders of WC and Co and conventional grain growth inhibitors to a slurry, drying said slurry to a powder, uniaxial pressing in pressing tools of the powder to bodies of desired shape and finally sintering. During sintering, inserts of this type of cemented carbide generally shrink more in the direction parallel to the pressing direction than in the direction perpendicular thereto. As a consequence, the pressing has to be done in special tools or the inserts have to be extensively ground after sintering both alternatives leading to increased production cost. According to the invention it has been found that for a cemented carbide with a Co-content of 7.5-25 wt% this disadvantage can be eliminated by using WC powder with an FSSS grain size, dWC, of less than 1  mu m and a Co powder with an FSSS grain size, dCo, such that the ratio dWC/dCo is 0.75-1.5.
