Abstract: A process and apparatus for variable oxygen production by low temperature air distillation with medium- (6) and low-pressure (7) distillation columns are such that  (a) the distillation system also has a high-pressure column (5) into which is introduced a part of the air feed (1); and  (b) a nitrogen-rich fraction from the high-pressure column (5) is liquefied by using the indirect heat-exchanger (8) used to evaporate the liquid O2 from the storage tank. Variable production of oxygen by low temperature air decomposition involves producing a liquid O2 fraction (30) by feeding air (1, 2, 4) into a system including both a medium-pressure (6) and low-pressure (7) column with the liquid O2 being fed (34, 35) to a storage tank (36) and also producing liquid nitrogen (15, 46) in the distillation system with the liquid N2 also being fed (17) to a storage tank (24), the process being such that on increased O2 demand liquid O2 (57, 59) is withdrawn from tank (36), evaporated by indirect heat-exchange (8) and recovered as a gas. The novel features are that  (a) the distillation system also includes a high-pressure column (5) which operates at higher pressure than medium-pressure column (6) and which has introduced into it a part (37, 40, 41) of the air feed (1); and  (b) a nitrogen-rich fraction from the high-pressure column (5) is liquefied by using the indirect heat-exchanger (8) used to evaporate the liquid O2 from the storage tank. An Independent claim is also included for apparatus also having a high-pressure column (5), a pipe (44, 45) conveying a nitrogen-rich fraction from column (5) into heat-exchanger (8) and a second air inlet (37, 40, 41) for conveying air under a second and higher pressure into the high-pressure column (5).

Abstract: A bond of a rubbery component to a virgin surface of a tire's cured innerliner
(16,36) which virgin surface has never been contaminated by the remnants of a
release agent left after buffing with a wire brush and solvent-cleaning the cured
innerliner (16, 36), is unexpectedly stronger than a bond of the component to
the contaminated but "cleaned surface", cleaned as indicated. Therefore, a
pneumatic tire is provided with a virgin surface protected against contamination
by a release agent at the curing temperature of the tire; protection is provided
by a self-supporting barrier film (20, 38) of sulfur non-vulcanizable, expandable,
thermoformable synthetic resinous material; and, a method is provided for
maintaining a virgin cured surface within all or part of either the exterior or
interior of a pneumatic tire's rubber carcass (10) which is conventionally cured.
The barrier film (20, 38) which is substantially inextensible at ambient
temperature, is removable without tearing into pieces from the protected surface
of the cured tire. When the interior surface is provided by an innerliner (16, 36),
any component to be included within the interior of the carcass (10) may be
adhesively secured to the virgin surface of the innerliner (16, 36) more securely
than has been heretofore possible.

Abstract: The automatic stop device includes flexible elements which allow the casing to pivot in reaction to the couple appearing on the output of the speed reducing gear. When the pivoting action reaches a set angular value, the electrical supply to the motor is interrupted.  The automatic stop device for an electric motor in a roller blind forms a junction between the casing (1) of the motor and a fixed mounting point. It includes flexible elements which allow the casing to pivot in reaction to the couple appearing on the output of the speed reducing gear. The opposing pivoting movements of the casing attain a particular angular extent, then interrupt the supply to the motor. The levels of couple attained when the motor is turning in the two different directions are different. The mechanism includes a device for modifying the action on the flexible elements (6) in order to reverse the levels of couple and adjust the equilibrium position of the motor casing.
