IPC: B01J21/06
Filed: 1986-06-05
Abstract: A solid composition of matter is disclosed consisting essentially of sodium, potassium, a Group IA metal or a Group IA metal and a Group IIA metal, titanium, oxygen and, optionally, at least one of a halogen and tin, in which at least one of the sodium, the potassium, the Group IA metal or the Group IIA metal is present in an amount in excess of any amount present in electrically neutral compounds of the metal, the titanium and oxygen.The above compositions are particularly useful as solid contact materials for the oxidative conversion of feed organic compounds to product organic compounds, particularly in the presence of a free oxygen containing gas. A method for such conversion is also disclosed.In a preferred embodiment a method for the oxidative conversion of methane, such as natural gas, to higher hydrocarbons, particularly ethylene and ethane, is disclosed in which the methane and a free oxygen containing gas are contacted with a Group IA metal, a Group IIA metal, or a Group IA metal and a Group IIA metal, titanium, oxygen and, optionally, a halogen and/or tin.

Abstract: 1. Method of testing wiring supports, such as printed circuit boards, ceramic circuit boards, printed circuits and flexible circuits, wherein in one processing step the conductivity of the conductors (1") located on the circuit board (1) is determined by measuring the conductivity between connection points (1') which are located on a specific conductor (1"), and wherein in other processing steps the insulation resistance between conductors (1") is determined by measuring the current flowing between a specific conductor (1"), and the other conductors (1"), a first electronic switch (4) and a second electronic switch (8) being associated with each connection point (1') of the conductors (1") and, in the one processing step, a connection point (1') of a specific conductor (1") being connected to a first potential by the first electronic switch (4) associated with the connection point (1') and another connection point of the specific conductor (1") being connected to a second potential (Vcc ) by the second electronic switch (8) associated with this other connection point and by a current measuring element (6), and, in the other processing steps, by means of a second electronic switch (8) associated with a connection point (1') of a specific conductor (1") and by means of the current measuring element (6) a connection being established with the second potential (Vcc ), substantially all of the other connection points (1') of the specific conductor (1") being isolated from the first and second potential (Vcc ), and a connection point (1') of the other conductors (1") being connected to the first potential by the first electronic switch (4) associated with it and substantially all the connection points (1') of the other conductors (1") being isolated from the second potential (Vcc ), with the electrical connections between the connection points (1') and the corresponding first and second electronic switches (4, 8) being established in each case by means of test pins (2') of an adaptor device (2) and by means of a contact bank (3, 30, 55) having contact elements (3, 30', 52), characterised in that, prior to carrying out the other processing steps, a device (7; 20', 20", 21', 21", 53) produces the effect that in each conductor (1") substantially all the connections to the connection points (1') of the conductor (1") except for the said one connection between the one connection point (1') and the second potential (Vcc ) are mechanically interrupted.

Inventor: ROUVEROL WILLIAM SPENCE
IPC: F16H55/08
Filed: 1986-07-21
Abstract: A system of gearing is disclosed that allows gears to be designed that are smaller than standard involute gears of corresponding torque capacity. This reduction in size is made possible by increasing the angle through which the teeth are engaged. The wider angle of engagement (SO₁E) is achieved by adding to the path of contact two segments: (1) the path portion (PI) closest to the pinion (12) is extended by added on a slightly curved segment (IS) lying outside the circle (21) that is the locus of interference points for involute gearing; and (2), the path portion (PF') closest to the gear (14) is extended by adding a segment that is produced by the use of an exceptionally long pinion addendum. The re­duced size of the gears (12,14) made possible by the wider engagement angle (SO₁E) obtained from addition of these two path segments not only reduces mass and pitch line velocity, but the wider engagement angle (SO₁E) itself also affords an increased profile contact ratio that reduces transmission error. The wider angle of engagement (SO₁E) thus reduces noise excitation in two ways. In addition, a third way may be added if proportions are used that reduce or eliminate mesh stiffness variation.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Anordnung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1. Dabei ist insbesondere und als bevorzug­tes Anwendungsgebiet das Bringen von zu galvanisierenden Leiterplatten, welche elektronische Scaltungen beinhalten, bzw. die zugehörigen Schaltelemente später aufnehmen, in das bzw. aus dem jeweiligen Hängegestell. Man kennt Anord­nungen, bei denen plattenförmige, zu galvanisierende Teile mittels sie pneumatisch haltender Saugnäpfe bewegt und in die jeweilige Lage bzw. in das jeweilige Hängegestell ge­bracht werden. Die mittels solcher Saugnäpfe aufbringbaren Kräfte sind begrenzt. Damit ist auch der Anwendungsbereich dieser vorbekannten Anordnung begrenzt. So können hiermit nicht größere plattenförmige Teile bewegt werden. Insbe­sondere ergeben sich aber Schwierigkeiten, wenn die platten­förmigen Teile durch die beim Galvanisiervorgang sich an ihnen niederschlagenden Metallmassen am Hängegestell ge­wissermaßen "angeklebt" sind und durch entsprechende Zug­kraft davon gelöst werden müssen.

Abstract: In the transmission of binary data in data processing systems, the data in each case consisting of a group of data elements of n data bits each and one parity bit each and all data bits of the data to be transmitted being shifted at least once into one or the other direction by a predetermined number of bit positions during the transmission and new data of the same structure being formed with each shift, the parity bit (Pnew) of the data elements in each case newly produced during the shift is in each case formed by EXCLUSIVE-OR gates in accordance with the relation Pnew = P old # P SO # P SI from the parity bit (Pold) of the original data element, the parity bit (PSO) to be determined from the data bits shifted out of this data element and the parity bit (PSI) to be determined from the data bits shifted into this data element. In the case of data shifts by at least n bit positions, the parity bit determination of the parity bits (Pnew) is reduced to the parity bit determination in the case of data shifts by less than n bit positions by additional shifting of the data by whole data elements. The parity bit determination is particularly advantageous in connection with a parity bit check carried out once at the end of the transmission link during the monitoring of the transmission of data subjected to data shifts during the transmission. <IMAGE>

Abstract: We have discovered an improved, energy efficient method for recovering and regenerating acid from a solution comprising acid and salt. The process comprises of the steps of supplying a solution comprising salt and a first concentration of acid to a first compartment (D) of an electrodialysis apparatus (2) comprising a first compartment and a second compartment (C), supplying a liquid comprising water to the second compartment, applying a direct current to the electrodialysis apparent to form, in the first compartment, a first product comprising salt and a second concentration of acid, the second concentration of acid being less than the first concentration of acid, and, in the second compartment, a second product comprising water and enriched in acid by a proportionite amount, recovering the first product, recovering the second product, recovering acid from the first product using electrodialytic water splitting (11) to convert at least a portion of the salt to a third product comprising acid, and recovering the third product. The process has particular utility for the recovery and regeneration of mixed acids from spent pickle liquors containing free nitric acid and salts of an anion other than nitrate anion.
