Abstract: A ventilation system for one or more metal-air cells includes a distributor for uniformly distributing oxygen between oxygen electrodes in response to operation of an air moving device. The distributor may be further operative, or associated with one or more restrictive passageways that are operative, while unsealed to provided a barrier function that protects the metal-air cells from the ambient environment while the air moving device is not operating. The perforated member defines a plurality of apertures that at least partially define the reactant air flow path through which air is supplied to the metal-air cells. The perforated member may be a plate or an elongate ventilation passageway, such as a tube. The metal-air cells may be arranged in a stack, and a first of the apertures is more proximate to a first plenum defined between the cells than a second plenum defined between the cells, and a second of the apertures is more proximate to the second plenum than the first plenum. The air moving device may be mounted between protrusions of the cells. Each cell case may included a pair of unitary case portions, each of which has side walls extending from a panel in a common direction to define a cavity. For each cell, the side walls of a first case portion extend into the cavity of a second case portion.

Title: Method for processing work pieces by removing material
Inventor: ENGELI MAX
IPC: G05B19/4103
Filed: 1998-12-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing a work piece by removing material with a tool in which the tool is guided over the work piece in paths. The pivoting and cambering angle of the tool is selected in every point such that the width of a tolerance zone is optimized. Within said zone, the effective zone (K) of the tool is located in a tolerance zone of the desired specified surface (Psi) of the work piece. The distance between two points (Pl, Pr) is maximized, said points characterizing the furthest outlying points of the tolerance zone. As a result, it possible to produce surfaces having a high precision with a small number of paths.

Abstract: In the steam reforming of hydrocarbon, particularly methane, under elevated
temperature and pressure to produce hydrogen, a feed of steam and hydrocarbon is fed
into a first reaction volume containing essentially only reforming catalyst to partially
reform the feed. The balance of the feed and the reaction products of carbon dioxide
and hydrogen are then fed into a second reaction volume containing a mixture of
catalyst and adsorbent which removes the carbon dioxide from the reaction zone as it is
formed. The process is conducted in a cycle which includes these reactions followed by
countercurrent depressurization and purge of the adsorbent to regenerate it and
repressurization of the reaction volumes preparatory to repeating the reaction-sorption
phase of the cycle.

Abstract: A means for removing odor emitting particles and molecules from the air
comprising the circulation of air through a reactor and the spraying of the air with a
highly polar water. The water is prepared through electrolysis and irradiation by far
infrared light. The resulting water is highly polar and is efficient in removing odor
emitting particles and molecules from the air. When the water is sprayed into the
air, the odor emitting particles and molecules are attracted to the highly polar water
droplets and adhere to the droplets. The water then settles and is flushed from the
reactor . The water may be purged and recycled to the spray.

along with the status of the point-to point links in the mesh network. Upon detecting a
failure of one of the service links and point-to-point links, an Operations Systems Data
Server (32) establishes a restoration path based on the available protection links and
available point-to-point links. Traffic is then restored on such the restoration path. In
this way, a failure in the service ring can be restored in the mesh network while a failure
in the mesh network can be restored in the protection ring.

Abstract: The method uses a reference power demand in the standby mode, with the current corresponding to this demand being compared with an eqivalent current, and the difference between reference and equivalent currents being taken as criterion in determining the requirement for hydraulic assistance. The vehicle battery (3) supplies the pump unit (1) through the electronic controller (2), which receives inputs representative of motor voltage (Umot) and current (Imot), battery voltage (Valim) and a selected parameter (pe) related to a function, external to the pump unit, whose variation affects the unit's power consumption in the standby mode - i.e. when no requirement exists for hydraulic assistance (4). The control method is based on defining a reference powr demand, in the standby mode, using a given reference pump motor voltage, or speed. The current corresponding to this demand is compared with an ''equivalent current'', obtained by adjusting the actual motor current to take account of the difference between the actual and reference motor voltages, or speeds, and the difference between reference and equivalent currents is taken as a criterion in determining whether a requirement for hydraulic assistance is present.
