Title: Venetian blinds and method of manufacture
IPC: E06B9/322
Filed: 1990-08-08
Granted: 1992-11-25
Abstract: The specification discloses a method of assembling two different venetian blinds having two different slat widths, the flexible elements 14, 16 of a ladder means of which are each mounted on a tilt roll 10, the flexible element of each pair extending down the different opposite lateral outermost points 18, 20 of the tilt roll 10. Identical tilt rolls are utilized for the ladder means of the blinds of first and second widths. The flexible elements of each ladder means of the blind of slats of lesser width are attached to the respective tilt rolls 10 (Figure 1A), so that they extend directly from the securing means 12 of the tilt roll to the laterally outermost points 18, 20 of the roll 10. The flexible elements of each ladder means for the blind with the slats of greater width are attached to the respective tilt roll 10 , so that each of the flexible elements 14, 16 of each pair extends from the securing means 12 of the tilt roll 10 around at least half of the periphery of that tilt roll to reach the laterally outermost points 18, 20 of that roll when the blind is in its fully opened position. Thus the tilt roll must be rotated a greater distance for the blind of greater slat width than for that of the lesser slat width to give a given angle of tilt.

Abstract: Appareil et procédés associés pour un débitmètre de masse de Coriolis (5) insensible au bruit, et plus particulièrement un débitmètre qui n'est pas affecté par le bruit de fréquences différentes d'une fréquence fondamentale à laquelle le tube ou les tubes d'écoulement (130, 130') vibrent dans le débitmètre. D'une manière spécifique, le débitmètre (5) est fondé sur la mesure du débit de masse en déterminant la différence de phase se produisant entre les composantes réelles et imaginaires de la transformée de Fourier discrète (DFT) des formes d'ondes des capteurs de vitesse de gauche et de droite évaluées à la fréquence fondamentale à laquelle les tubes d'écoulement vibrent. La fréquence fondamentale est localisée, lors d'une opération d'initialisation, en établissant un spectre de puissance déterminé en utilisant la DFT, l'un des signaux des capteurs et en sélectionnant la fréquence à laquelle l'intensité du spectre de puissance atteint une valeur maximale. De plus, la fréquence à laquelle les deux signaux de capteur de vitesse sont échantillonnés est réajustée en réponse à tout changement de phase de l'un des signaux de capteur de vitesse, transformé en utilisant la DFT, de manière à s'assurer que la fréquence d'échantillonnage reste toujours sensiblement égale à un multiple d'un nombre entier prédéfini de la fréquence fondamentale. En outre, en utilisant la valeur numérique de tout changement de phase, le débitmètre produit également une indication de densité qui est également insensible au bruit.

Abstract: A continuous solvent pulping process is practiced with oxygen free gas (e.g. nitrogen) purges of all major treatment vessels (23, 24, 85, 103, 105) during the time when the process is arrested or terminated. The wood chips or other cellulosic fibrous material to be pulped is steamed in a first horizontal steaming zone (23) at a pressure of about 10-20 psi, and then in a second horizontal steaming zone (24) at a pressure of about 20-75 psi. Gases, including vaporized solvent (e.g. ethanol or other alcohol) are vented (via 30, 36) from the steaming zones, and solvent is added (at 39) to the steamed material prior to feeding to a high pressure feeder (11) . The high pressure feeder introduces the material into the top of a single digesting vessel (12), liquid and chips being separated at the top of the digester vessel without mechanical means that could cause a spark. Lignin containing liquid is withdrawn from a central portion (14) of the digester and passed through flash tanks (51-53) and ultimately for lignin and alcohol recovery. Washing -- which also may be practiced using solvent pulp from a batch system -- is accomplished by first continuously passing the pulp to a pressure diffuser (85), then to a first multi stage drum displacer washer (103), and then to a second multi stage drum displacer washer (105). <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining the concentration of substances in gases. The method employs electromagnetic irradiation and measurement of the transmitted radiation intensity at a wavelength characteristic of the substance to be determined, the gas containing the substance being measured at not less than two different gas pressure values. In order to overcome the disadvantages of conventional methods, which without exception employ reference gases which have to be specially prepared and stocked, and in order, nevertheless, to be able to determine very rapidly and simply the concentration of a substance in a gas with a relatively high precision, the invention proposes that an initial measurement is carried out at an essentially constant first pressure of the gas to be analysed, then the gas pressure is altered and a second measurement is carried out at a second constant gas pressure with an otherwise identical measurement system, and that the concentration of said substance in the gas is determined by calculation or graphically from the ratio of, or the difference between, the intensities measured in these two measurements on the basis of a theoretical relationship between the absorbance and the concentration by volume of the substance concerned. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A rate adaptive pacer designed to accommodate changes in a patient's metabolic demand utilizes ventricular ejection fraction (EF) as the rate controlling parameter. Ejection fraction is measured by sensing intracardiac impedance at end-diastole and end-systole and then using these measurements to compute stroke volume (SV). Ejection fraction is the stroke volume divided by the end-diastolic volume. This calculated value of EF is processed by the pacemaker to determine the escape interval (pacing rate) through a simple conversion algorithm. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved contact body for use in a liquid gas contact apparatus formed of first and second sets of corrugated sheet material arranged with the sheets of the first set disposed alternately with the sheets of the second set. The corrugations of the sheets define passageways which penetrate the contact body from edge to edge with both vertical and horizontal components of direction. The passageways are simultaneously passed by a flow of gas in one direction and liquid in the other direction in either counterflow or cross-flow in the contact apparatus. The corrugations of the first set of sheets cross the corrugations of the second set of sheets at an acute angle in the range of 15 DEG  to 80 DEG . Corrugations of the first set of sheets have a greater inclination to the horizontal plane of the contact apparatus than the corrugations of the second set of sheets and the corrugations of the first set of sheets have a smaller amplitude dimension than the corrugations of the second set of sheets. Corrugations in the first set of sheets are inclined upwardly in the direction of gas flow and the corrugations in the second set of sheets are inclined downwardly in the direction of gas flow whereby undesirable lateral displacement of the liquid stream caused by the gas flow is counteracted and the liquid is distributed uniformly and evenly over the sheets. An improved efficiency is also achieved with little or no increase in pressure drop as compared to contact bodies having both corrugated sheets of the larger amplitude.

Abstract: A photodetection system and related circuitry designed to sense the intrusion of an opaque object in a light plane. Upon sensing the intrusion, the system quickly initiates a machine-stopping sequence prior to the opaque object coming into contact with the machine while that machine is operating. The system comprises a SYSTEM microcontroller (1) and a WATCHDOG microcontroller (2), both of which operate an output control device (11) of the light curtain switch of the invention, wherein the output control device (11) comprises a plurality of electromechanical relays. Both microcontrollers also perform system hardware and software integrity checks. Furthermore, the WATCHDOG microcontroller (2) evaluates the performance of the SYSTEM microcontroller (1) by transmitting a false intrusion signal to a photosource, determining whether the false signal has been detected, and then verifying that the SYSTEM microcontroller (1) has initiated the machine-stopping sequence. The machine-stopping sequence may be overridden by the WATCHDOG microcontroller (2), or it may be initiated if the false signal is not detected. The combination of electronic, mechanical, and optical modules of the present invention provides improved reliability and accuracy. In addition, the SYSTEM microcontroller (1) and the WATCHDOG microcontroller (2) are designed so as to reduce the system's sensitivity to spurious signals. <IMAGE>
