Patent EP-0343450-B1 (EP)
IPC: A47C1/032
Filed: 1989-05-12
Granted: 1992-04-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a chair, in particular a work chair or office chair, having a seat (20), which is swivellable in the front region about a horizontal swivel axis (12) and which can be altered in inclination, and a backrest (25), which can be forcibly altered overproportionally in inclination by means of an adjusting device in dependence on the alteration of inclination of the seat, in which chair, with an increasing inclination of the seat, the backrest executes an additional relative movement downwards in relation to the facing end of the seat. A simple adjusting device having operationally reliable rotation and pivot bearings results from the fact that swivel levers (13) are linked to support arms (11) of the chair frame on both sides of the seat, the free ends of which swivel levers are mounted fixedly and non-rotationally on the backrest and support the backrest, and that the seat is mounted rotatably approximately in its central region on the swivel levers and is supported in the front region in an articulated manner on the chair frame via at least one carriage lever (17).

Abstract: A process for producing and purifying succinic acid comprises growing a succinate salt-producing microorganism on an inexpensive substrate containing carbohydrate, other nutrients, sodium ions and tryptophan under a CO2 partial pressure until most of the carbohydrate is converted to succinate. The fermentation broth is then electrodialyzed to recover and concentrate the succinate salt in an aqueous stream which is subjected to water-splitting electrodialysis to form base and a succinic acid product. The resulting succinic acid product is treated first with a strongly acidic ion exchanger in the acid form to remove any sodium or other cations and then treated with a weakly basic ion exchanger in the free base form to remove any sulfate ions or sulfuric acid and to obtain a highly purified succinic acid product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for use in detecting the substance of an object contained within an enclosure. The apparatus is comprised of an acoustic transmitter for transmitting a pulse of acoustic energy at a first side of the enclosure. A first acoustic receiver is provided for receiving acoustic energy reflected from the object to produce a reflected acoustic energy signal. A second acoustic receiver is provided for receiving acoustic energy which has been transmitted or refracted through the object to produce a transmitted acoustic energy signal. A signal processor is connected to the transmitter and to said first and second receivers. The signal processor processes the transmitted pulse of acoustic energy, the reflected acoustic energy signal and the transmitted acoustic energy signal to produce an object signature indicative of the object. A comparator is provided for comparing the object signature with the signature of known objects to determine the substance of the object. In accordance with the present invention, ''enclosure'' is defined as being a hollow box like structure having an object to be detected and identified with respect to its substance located therein, for example, a suitcase containing an object, or a quantity of material having an object to be detected and identified with respect to its substance buried therein, for example, an object buried in the earth relatively close to the surface.

Title: Low pressure recirculation valve
Inventor: LOOS GEORGE
IPC: F16K17/04

Granted: 1997-07-30
Abstract: A low pressure recirculation valve for cooling a centrifugal pump. The invention comprises a unitary valve casing divided into a first valve chamber and a second valve chamber, the casing having a first port for introducing fluids into said first chamber, and a second port for expelling fluids out of said second chamber, the first chamber having a recirculation port for redirecting fluids back to said centrifugal pump. A multiple piece check valve member situated between said first chamber and second chambers permits the flow of fluid from said first chamber to the second chamber and prevents the flow of fluid from said second chamber to said first chamber. A slidable valve stem coupled to said check valve member and extending through the first chamber moves the check valve member from an open to closed position. Means coupled to said valve stem biases the slidable valve stem and check valve means toward the closed position. A recirculation valve means operatively coupled to said valve stem opens and closes said recirculation port, said recirculation valve means opening when said check valve means is closed and closing when said check valve means is open.

Abstract: Strands (24) on which metal parts (22) to be coated are divided off by preformed separating points (26) are guided only loosely in a section (44) upstream of a mould cavity (20), are advanced as far as a stop (60) in the mould cavity (20) and subjected to a pushing force, by which they are bent in the form of a sinuous line to form a length in reserve in the section upstream of the mould cavity (20). Then, the forwardmost metal part (22) of each strand (24) is fixed in the injection mould (18). Only after fixing of the respectively forwardmost metal part (22) is the pushing force interrupted; when this occurs, the strands (24) are released for their length in reserve to move back. Subsequently, the strands (24) are clamped in place again and broken off at their forwardmost separating point (26). In this way, spacing tolerances between the separating points (26) are prevented from accumulating to become errors which would prevent a severing of the strands (24) at the respectively forwardmost preformed separating point (26). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An insulating unit (150) has a pair of glass sheets (12,14) about an edge assembly (152) to provide a compartment (18) between the sheets. The edge assembly has a U-shaped spacer (158) made of metal, metal coated plastic, gas and moisture impervious polymer, or gas and moisture impervious film coated polymer. The outer legs (156) of the spacer (158) and the glass (12,14) provide a long diffusion path to limit the diffusion of argon gas out of the compartment (18). The edge assembly (152) has materials selected and sized to provide edge assembly having an RES-value of at least 75. A spacer (158) for use in insulating units includes a plastic core having a gas impervious film e.g. a metal film or a halogenated polymer film. Also taught herein are techniques for making the unit (150) and spacer (158). The unit (150) has a long diffusion path to increase the time period in which insulating glass e.g. Argon gas may be retained in the compartment (18). The increased RES-value provides a unit (150) that has a low thermal conducting edge (152). In this manner heat loss through the marginal edge (152) of the unit (150) is reduced. <IMAGE>
