Abstract: The flow gaz is compressed before reaching the leading edge of the wing and expanded on the back of the wing. Simultaneously, gaz from the undersurface sucked by the expanded gaz is mixed therewith thereby increasing the flow on the back of the wing and directing it so that the flow speed of the gaz leaving the trailing edge is evenly distributed over the length of the wing, that the take off point migrates towards the trailing edge and that, in the direction of the wing edge, the gaz pressure on the back of the wing is increased. The back of the wing is provided, at the vicinity of its edge (4), with at least one or a plurality of flow throats (1, 1a) which are integrated, at the foot (5) of the wing (2), in its profile, and which are evenly warped along its length. The distance between the wing and the throats (1, 1a) increases, towards the wing end, up to a slot (6, 6a) of maximum width. The profile (8) of the throat (1, 1a) has a maximum curvature at the foot (5) of the wing (2) and is flattened at its free end (9). The subtended angle between the profile chord of each throat and the profile chord of the wing varies from the feet (12) of the throats (1, 1a) up to the ends (9, 9a) as a function of the variable curvatures along the throats (1, 1a).

The element is on one side provided with an aluminum foil (4) which is glued to the foam plastic except in certain parts (5-8). The aluminum foil acts as a stiffener where it is glued to the foam plastic, so that the element will bend in those places where the foil is not glued when the element is subjected to bending. A method for manufacturing the element and a special use of the element are also disclosed.

Abstract: For bending the edge of a thick sheet of metal a tool comprising a yoke with a long and a short leg with plate-engaging bars in the opening between the legs is used. The tool is placed on a sheet so as to straddle the edge to be bent with one bar on each side of the sheet. An extensible member, for example a hydraulic cylinder, bears against the sheet to tilt the yoke so that the bars are pressed against the sheet to bend it. The tool may be provided with transport wheels and drive equipment for automatically moving the tool on the sheet.

Granted: 1986-01-15
Abstract: A sheet-metal bending brake has a stationary anvil having a flat and horizontal support surface bounded by and having a straight stationary bending edge and a cut-out back surface forming an acute angle with the support surface. A bending assembly displaceable perpendicular to and adjacent the anvil carries a movable bending blade having a movable bending edge parallel to the stationary edge and spaced therefrom in a direction parallel to the support surface and a clamp bar above the support surface adjacent the blade and having a clamp-bar face confronting and parallel to the support surface. This bar is supported on the bending assembly for limited vertical movement relative thereto between a lower position with the bar face below the movable edge and an upper position with the bar face above the movable edge and is normally spring-biased into the lower position. The assembly can be moved between an upper position with the bar face and the movable edge both above the support surface and a workpiece thereon and a lower position with the bar face pressing the workpiece against the support surface and the movable edge below the stationary edge and through an intermediate position with the bar face and the movable edge level with each other and both engaging the workpiece. Thus the bar clamps the workpiece to the anvil and movement from the intermediate position to the lower position of the blade bends over the workpiece edge region. When moving from the intermediate to the lower position the blade is pivoted forward to further bend the workpiece.

Abstract: Un liquide contenant des ions radioactifs est purifié (décontaminé) en mettant ce liquide en contact avec une composition inorganique à échange ionique possédant des sites d'échange ionique qui peuvent être occupés par les ions radioactifs provenant du liquide. La composition à échange ionique est un mélange d'un milieu d'échange ionique et d'un additif qui est relativement inerte par rapport au procédé d'échange ionique et qui facilite le frittage du milieu d'échange ionique, ce qui permet d'abaisser la température de frittage de la composition à échange ionique. Cette composition peut être déposée à l'intérieur d'un récipient approprié, par exemple une boîte métallique, composée par exemple d'acier inoxydable (304L) ou d'Inconel (601) et le procédé d'échange ionique peut être exécuté dans ce récipient. Dans une variante, le milieu d'échange ionique peut être utilisé sans être au préalable mélangé à l'additif. Celui-ci peut, si on le désire, être mélangé à une étape ultérieure au milieu contaminé. Le mélange peut être fritté par la suite et éliminé d'une manière appropriée quelconque, telle que par enfouissement souterrain du mélange éteint à l'intérieur du récipient. Le récipient peut être également placé dans un four spécialement conçu, pour y exécuter le procédé d'échange ionique, le frittage de la composition à échange ionique et son élimination sûre. On décrit également des procédés permettant d'obtenir un mélange homogène du milieu d'échange ionique, et de l'additif présentant, par exemple, une relation déterminée entre la densité et la taille des particules.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of non-floating, non-abrasive, highly-filled polyurethane (urea) compositions of high water-absorbability, which during their production contain no cells capable of growth as carriers for biomasses in the biological treatment of waste-containing liquids. These carriers have a filler content of greater than 15% by weight and less than 95% by weight (based on the moisture-free weight of the filler-containing polyurethanes). The fillers are selected from the group consisting of natural materials containing finely-divided fossil lignocelluloses or the secondary products thereof (e.g., peat, lignite, mineral coal or coke), active carbon, finely-divided distillation residues, inorganic fillers, homogeneous or cellular plastics particles (and more particularly polyurethane foam (waste) particles) and mixtures thereof. The polyurethane (urea) is a hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic polyurethane(urea), and preferably contains cationic groups. These highly-filled, polyurethane (urea) carriers have a water-absorbability exceeding 33% by weight of water in the swollen carrier. These carriers allow improved treatment of industrial and municipal liquid waste to be achieved in biologically-operating treatment plants. Treated waste which has reduced toxicity, a diminished smell, improved clarity and a very small residual content of organic, decomposable material is obtained due to the increased decomposition effect thereof.
