Abstract: On calcule la valeur chauffante d'un gaz échantillon au moyen d'un microcontrôleur (12) à partir de la valeur chauffante d'un gaz de référence et à partir de débits et de niveaux de puissance déterminés au moment de la combustion du gaz par un processus de combustion sans flamme. Le gaz combustible est mélangé à un gaz de support de combustion, par exemple de l'air, et il est amené à s'écouler jusqu'à un bloc de matériau (26, 52), lequel est chauffé à une température suffisante pour provoquer l'oxydation du mélange gazeux. La taille des espaces dans un dispositif chauffant (9, 11, 25, 26) selon une première réalisation et dans un dispositif chauffant (50) selon une seconde réalisation est limitée pour empêcher la formation d'une flamme ouverte. Dans une réalisation préférée à mélange pauvre, le mélange gaz-air du gaz de référence et le mélange gaz-air du gaz échantillon, respectivement, sont chacun ajustés jusqu'à ce qu'un niveau de puissance sélectionné de combustion à une température inférieure au point de combustion stoechiométrique soit atteint. Dans une seconde réalisation à mélange riche, le mélange gaz-air du gaz de référence et le mélange gaz-air du gaz échantillon, respectivement, sont chacun ajustés à partir d'un mélange riche pour atteindre un point de combustion stoechiométrique. Sur la base des débits et du taux de puissance sélectionné, la valeur chauffante du gaz échantillon est calculée par le microcontrôleur (12) et délivrée à un visuel ou à tout autre dispositif de sortie.

Abstract: Une fibre antistatique à deux composants comporte un premier composant non conducteur fait d'un premier polymère et un second composant conducteur fait d'un second polymère contenant une substance conductrice. La température de fusion du second polymère est inférieure à celle du premier. On produit cette fibre à deux composants par co-extrusion des deux polymères à une température supérieure à leurs températures de fusion et par étirement de la fibre extrudée afin de renforcer la résistance à la traction. On soumet ensuite la fibre à un traitement thermique à une température comprise entre la température de fusion du premier polymère et celle du second afin d'améliorer la conductivité du second composant conducteur. Cette fibre à deux composants est, de préférence, une fibre à enveloppe/coeur.

Inventor: LIFSON ALEXANDER
IPC: F04C27/00
Filed: 1998-01-06
Abstract: An improved control over the pressure vented or tapped to a back pressure
chamber in a scroll compressor is achieved by maintaining a vent hole (54) closed for the
majority of the operational cycle of the scroll compressor. The hole is preferably
selectively exposed to a discharge pressure for a small portion of the cycle, and to an
intermediate pressure for a second small portion of the cycle. Other than those two
small portions, the hole is preferably closed. The invention reduces pulsation in the
back pressure chamber and also reduces pumping losses caused by fluid moving into
and out of the back pressure chamber through the hole. In one embodiment, grooves (68,74) are
formed in the fixed scroll member to communicate a selected intermediate pressure and
a discharge pressure to locations on the base plate of the fixed scroll member. A vent
hole (54) in the wrap (53) of the orbiting scroll member cyclically moves over the two grooves.
The vent hole is closed by the base plate of the fixed scroll member for the majority of
its operational cycle. In a second embodiment, a pair of holes are formed through the
base plate of one of the scroll members. The holes are covered by the wrap of the other
scroll member for the majority of the operational cycle of the scroll compressor. Each
hole is open for a small portion of the operational cycle to selectively tap an
intermediate and discharge pressure to the back pressure chamber.

surface of the ink transfer device (9) against the stencil
sheet (13). Thus, a part of the ink transfer device (9)

Abstract: The system of the present invention includes measurement instrumentation that is
located in or near the drill bit and used in a measuring-while-drilling system. The
instrumentation can be located in a bit box, an extended sub between the bit box and
drilling motor assembly or in the drill bit. The drill bit is connected directly to the bit box
or extended sub. The close proximity of the instruments to the drill bit allows for more
reliable and useful measurements of drill bit, drilling and formation conditions. The bit
box houses instruments that measure various downhole parameters such as inclination of
the borehole, the natural gamma ray emission of the earth formations, the electrical
resistivity of the earth formations, and a number of mechanical drilling performance
parameters. Sonic, or electromagnetic signals representing these measurements are
transmitted uphole to receiver associated with a receiving equipment located uphole from
the drill bit.

Abstract: The rigid closure and operating section (4) pivots (29, 30) on the base section (3) for opening in normal use. An intermediate tear strip (5) intervenes between the sections (3, 4), and is joined to each by a tamper-evident bridging sections. The opening is opposite the intermediate tear strip, with the pivots centrally between them. Limited pivoting of the closure allows contents to be dispensed. The bridging sections are sufficiently weak for tearing, but adequate to resist mounting stresses. Independent claims are included for: one-piece injection molding of the cap; and the appropriate injection molding equipment. Preferred features: Whilst having thin sections, the tear section is sufficiently rigid for manipulation and tearing. It and its connections, have various possible configurations which are detailed. Base and closure fit together. The closure is coplanar with the edges of the base, when closed. Further details and variants based on the foregoing principles are described.

Abstract: The procedure consists of creating a plastics deformation of at least one lateral surface (8) of the coupling's inner ring (4) adjacent to the point (10) in which it meets the spherical surface (5), the deformation being carried out after the inner ring has been fitted in the outer one (2). The procedure is designed for assembling a spherical coupling (1) with outer (2) and inner (4) rings, the latter having spherical (5) and lateral (8) surfaces, and consists of deforming the lateral surface close to the point (10) where it joins the spherical surface after the inner ring has been fitted into the outer one. This causes the spherical surface to be deformed outwards, with the deformation facilitation by an annular groove (11) in the lateral surface which forms a lip (12) at the point where the lateral and spherical surfaces meet.
