Patent EP-0125741-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WEISS OSCAR
IPC: G01V3/15
Filed: 1984-01-19
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for detecting a localised disturbance in the ground.Unlike conventional detectors the present invention can detect the presence of non-metallic objects. The invention is predicated upon the fact that a buried object causes a disturbance of the local value of the earths magnetic field due to both the disruption of the soil and the material of the object. The change in intensity of the field will usually be to small to detect reliably, but the horizontal and/or vertical gradients of the magnetic disturbance is detectable. This invention provides a method and apparatus in which a plurality of mutually spaced apart detector units (10, 12) are swept across an area of ground suspected of containing a localised disturbance and in which the detector units (10, 12) are responsive to the magnetic field gradient associated with the resulting disturbance of the local mangetic field.

Abstract: A liquid crystal cell (100) includes a chiral additive in the liquid crystal material (106) to operate the cell as a rapid starting, high-speed variable optical retarder. The chiral material prevents an inactive cell from relaxing to the splayed topological state, and thereby enables switching operation without a warm-up delay. The surface of an inactive cell is also prevented from having a mottled appearance when it remains unused.

Abstract: The storage-rack arrangement contains vertical supports (1) and horizontal carriers (2), which are each designed as liquid-filled tubes having circular cross-section. Situated transversely to the horizontal carriers (2) at a distance from one another are pallet supporting tubes (8), onto which bowls (10) of semi-circular cross-section are welded. These bowls (10) are placed onto the horizontal carriers (2). The pallet supporting tubes (8) are connected with the vertical supports (1) and/or the horizontal carriers (2) in such a way that liquid may circulate in their interior. In the event of fire, the tubes are cooled by water flowing through them. The possibility of prefabrication and placing of the pallet supporting tubes (8) onto the horizontal carriers (2) considerably simplifies assembly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting concentrations of nitrogen between 20% and 30% by weight such as is common in explosives is disclosed. A microtron having an output electron beam at a level below 45 MeV is targeted onto a typically tungsten target to provide gamma radiation levels. Deflection magnets adjacent to the target deflect the electron beam of the microtron to cause it to scan. Articles placed on a container containing suspect nitrogen are systematically scanned and output gamma radiation of 511 keV detected from nitrogen. Nitrogen concentrations and consequently expected concealed explosives are easily mapped in two or three dimensions, quantitatively.

Abstract: A rapidly cleanable rotary atomizer is characterized by a passageway extending between a rearward coating material cup of the atomizer and a forward coating material feed surface, from an edge of which atomization occurs. The passageway initiates in the material cup at a non-zero radius from the atomizer axis and terminates on the material feed surface at the axis. During changes of coating material, the passageway enables flushing media to be introduced from the material cup onto the material feed surface immediately at the axis of rotation of the atomizer for quickly and thoroughly cleaning the entirety of the material feed surface.

Abstract: A hollow, porous, silica-rich fiber, a process for producing the same, and a process for enriching at least one gas from a gaseous mixture utilizing at least one fiber to result in gas separations with good permeability and good selectivity. The fiber is non-crystalline and has pore sizes having a range of 1 to around 50 Angstroms in diameter and a mean pore size of around less than 20 Angstroms in diameter and a filament diameter in the range of 1 to around 200 microns and a wall thickness in the range of around 1 to 30 microns. The fibers with a fine pore structure and thin walls are produced by forming hollow glass fibers hindered or fully phase-separable boron and/or alkali metal glass composition, by attenuation from melt at speeds in the range of 500 ft/min to around 20,000 ft/min. The phase-separable glass fibers are heat treated to yield limited phase-separated hollow glass fibers and these fibers are leached to extract acid and/or water soluble components. For fully phase-separable, hollow glass fibers, a limited heat treatment is used before leaching, where the heat treatment is at a temperature of around 300 to less than 480°C for a time of around 5 minutes to 24 hours. The hindered, phase-separable, hollow glass fibers are heat treated at a temperature in the range of about 400 to about 600°C. At least one hollow, porous, silica-rich fiber is used in a device suitable to contain a gaseous mixture and the permeate is withdrawn from the silica-rich fiber at the opposite side from that at which the gaseous mixture contacts the hollow, porous fiber.

Abstract: The charging apparatus for lead-acid-accumulators controls the charging current and the charging voltage above the gassing voltage level according to a linearly declining characteristic. The charging current and the charging vol­tage are converted to a current signal (50) and a voltage signal (60) which are normalised (70,80) and combined (150) into an indicating signal (160) which is constant as long as the charging current and the charging voltage follow the linear characteristic. A regulating device (130,140,40) compares the indicating signal (160) to a reference signal (132) for correcting the charging current and the charging voltage. The current signal (50) and the voltage signal (60) are converted to the indicating signal (160) by means of a weighted summation. For performing the summation there is provided an operational amplifier circuit.

Abstract: A picture transformation memory has three field stores which rotatively store a next field of video data, output a prior field of video data and output a current field of video data to provide a full frame output for each field input period. Each field store has four planes which contain identical fields of data and are read from sequentially pixel by pixel. Each plane has four banks with the field data being read into the banks sequentially pixel by pixel such that when one pixel is addressed, a local address generator addresses the neighboring pixels as well to produce a multi-pixel output to an interpolator. For half bandwidth data the first and third planes contain identical data and the second and fourth planes contain identical data in the same address locations as the corresponding data in planes one and three. The planes are independently addressable as are the pixels in each plane so that the pixels can be read from the picture transformation memory in a random sequence to accomodate any desired picture transformation.
