IPC: F22B1/02
Filed: 1992-01-27
Abstract: A fluidized bed steam generating system in which a duct (16) is disposed between a furnace outlet and a separator inlet. The duct is formed by first and second wall panels (22a, 22b) which are comprised of a plurality of parallel tubes (18) extending perpendicular to the direction of the flow of the combustion gases. The tubes comprising the wall panels are bent and welded to a fin (20) extending from corresponding portions of adjacent tubes to form a gas tight structure. The ends of the tubes are connected in fluid flow communication with first and second headers which enables cooling fluid to flow through the tubes for recovering heat from the combustion gases as they flow from the furnace into the separator.

Abstract: A system and process for managing metalworking fluids is disclosed. The system has a metering device (22) for supplying desired amounts of metalworking fluid components (23A-D)(coolants, lubricants, biocides, etc.) to the metalworking fluid of the system which has been collected from the metalworking area (12), and filtered. The use of a variable pump (24)(variable in speed, volume or time) is preferred to ensure that adequate, but not excessive amounts, of the necessary components are added to the system. Preferably, the metering device is located between the outlet (20) of the filter (17) and the inlet of a metalworking operation (12). The system and process reduce consumption of the metalworking fluid, reduce costs, reduce waste generation, and increase filter performance and overall system control.

Abstract: In the production of mouldings from compound mixtures containing predominantly vegetable raw materials with a proportion of starch, the mixture was hitherto processed directly on extruders to form mouldings or first, with the same machine, granules were produced which were then taken through the machine again and formed into mouldings. 
<??>The process according to the invention now provides for the components (K1-Kn) to be premixed and metered (21) in a first step (20) before production of the mouldings. Heat (23) and moisture (24) are supplied to the mixture (22) in a controlled manner and the mixture is then pelletized (25). The pellets are cooled (26) with air (27), comminuted (28) and can then be further processed (30) to form mouldings after any appropriate storage (29). 
<??>The process leads to more uniform and better results and is extremely economical.

Abstract: This invention intends to provide an optical isolator which is independent of a polarizing surface of an incident light and prevents the polarizing surface from changing at the light outgoing side. The optical isolator is composed of: a first parallel plate-like double-refractive substance; a first Faraday rotator for rotating a polarizing surface; a second parallel- like double refractive substance; a second Faraday rotator for rotating the polarizing surface in the direction reverse to that by the first Faraday rotator; a third parallel plate-like double-refractive substance; and a permanent magnet for magnetizing the Faraday rotators. In this way, the isolator is provided with a pair of Faraday rotators for rotating the polarizing surface in the directions reverse to each other and thus the polarizing surface stays unchanged on the light incidence side and light outgoing side.

Abstract: The apparatus includes a cylinder (3), inner piston (2), outer piston (1) and a piston locking device (6, 10, 11, 13). At one or both ends of the cylinder is a device (15, 16, 16, 18) for locking the piston rod. Pressure applied via port (4) acting on lock piston (6) pushes out piston (1) and is also applied to the interior of piston (1) through channel (22) in inner piston (2). Pressure to port (8) locks inner piston (2) to lock piston (6) and so pushes out this assembly. In each mode, pressure is applied to the sum of the cross-sectional areas of lock piston (6) and inner (2) or outer (1) pistons.

Abstract: A method of controlling a servomotor adapted to accelerate the convergence of deviations of position and speed, having excellent response and a high resistance to disturbance and free from mechanical resonance. When a torque command Tc1 obtained by a conventional speed control operation is small, a regulating gain G is increased, and, when this torque command is large, the regulating gain G is reduced (S1-S3). A torque Tc2 obtained by multiplying a Tc1, an output from a speed control unit by this regulating gain G is used as a torque command to be supplied to a servomotor (S4, S5). When deviations of position and speed and a torque command Tc1 are small, the gain becomes high, so that the response is improved and the convergence of these deviations is effected more speedily. When a torque command Tc1 is large, the gain is low, and mechanical oscillation does not occur.

Abstract: Procédé d'excitation d'un élément à cristaux liquides consistant à appliquer alternativement une tension ayant pour effet de mettre un film composite en état de diffusion de la lumière et une tension ayant pour effet de mettre ce film composite en état de transparence. La durée d'application de chacune de ces tensions est modulée de manière à modifier le rapport de l'état de diffusion de lumière à l'état de transparence par unité de temps de sorte que la quantité par unité de temps de lumière passant à travers le film composite soit régulée. L'appareil à cristaux liquides comporte un circuit d'attaque (D) permettant d'appliquer ces deux tensions à l'élément (L) à cristaux liquides. On obtient ainsi un appareil d'éclairage équipé d'un tel élément (L) à cristaux liquides sur le cheminement optique de la lumière émise par une lampe (P) constituant la source lumineuse.

Abstract: Compliance apparatus, for gripping and transporting workpiece sheets (W) such as appliance door blanks to be formed to and from a work station (12) having precision locator sheet stop surfaces (16), is mounted on a carrier (30) for travel in a generally horizontal path toward the work station (12). The compliance apparatus includes a plurality of generally horizontally spaced apart, workpiece-aligned suction grippers (GA) for collectively gripping the top surface of a workpiece sheet (W). Resilient mechanism (SA) connecting each of the grippers to the carrier (30) provides for relative individual lateral movement of the sheet (W) carrying grippers from neutral positions to positions displaced therefrom in any required direction, as dictated by the sheet engaging one of the locator sheet stop surfaces and being forced to a correctly aligned position in engagement with the other locator sheet stop surface as the carrier moves in its said path of travel. The resilient mechanism restores each gripper to original neutral position when the workpiece leaves the work station and normally maintains it in neutral position.

Abstract: A chair provided with a backrest for use in offices, etc., comprising an inner shell (2) and an outer shell (3). Conventional chairs of this type have a problem that there is little freedom in design with respect to strength and flexibility since only the inner shell serves as a structural member. An object of this chair is to increase the freedom. To this end, in the chair of this invention, the outer shell (3) as well as the inner shell (2) are formed as an integral body L-shaped in side view and comprising a seat portion (31) and a backrest portion (32), so that a three-dimensional shell structure is formed. In this chair, various measures are taken to solve the problem caused by the outer shell which is formed into an integral body. First, a fixed shell (6) is adopted for preventing a gap from being formed. Also, to obtain a required resiliency the shells (2, 3) are of such a construction as to allow a positional shift between the shells, and the inner shell (2) is supported by two brackets (118, 119) . In order not to make the user feel uneasy upon resilient deformation of the shells, they are so constructed that the backrest point (d) can be suitably shifted. Moreover, to connect the shells properly claws (302, 602) of a particular type and inclined bolts (355) are used. Also, to make a mechanism to be provided between the shells (2,3) as compact as possible, the balancing members (101) support a backrest suppport (104).
