Title: Anode structure for cathodic protection of steel reinforced concrete and relevant method of use
Inventor: TETTAMANTI MICHELE
IPC: C23F13/18
Filed: 1992-08-13
Granted: 1995-01-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for cathodic protection of steel reinforced concrete which comprises using an anode structure made of an array of valve metal strips activated by an electrocatalytic coating and having voids therein, supported by or inserted into insulating spacers, said strips being connected by connection means either provided with voids or without voids, or rods, bars, insulated cables. The anode structure is applied to the reinforcing steel cage during construction before the concrete is poured. The anode structure of the present invention exhibits a remarkable mechanical resistance and has an anode surface which may be tailored in order to provide for the necessary protection current on the basis of the density of the reinforcing bars contained in the structure to be cathodically protected.

Title: Melting sponge iron
Inventor: HIRSCH MARTIN
IPC: C21B13/08
Filed: 1984-02-09
Granted: 1987-04-02
Abstract: The melting operation is carried out in an elongated horizontal reactor, in which sponge iron is charged onto the molten material in an intermediate region of the reactor, carbonaceous fuel and high-oxygen gases are blown into the molten material and slag and sponge iron are tapped at opposite ends of the reactor. To permit an economical melting of sponge iron having a large particle size range with the aid of virtually only solid carbonaceous fuels, the sponge iron is charged into the reactor in an intermediate region of 20 to 40% of the total length of the reactor, fine-grained carbonaceous fuel and high-oxygen gas are blown into the molten material from below in that region, the rates of oxygen and carbon are so controlled that a molten iron containing 1 to 3% carbon is produced, the remaining carbon contained in the molten material is reacted in the melt to produce CO, and the remaining energy required in the process is produced in that the CO and hydrogen are virtually completely burnt above the molten material as a result of a supply of oxygen-containing gases into the free space of the reactor.

Title: Acoustic range finding system
Inventor: WOODWARD STEVEN J
IPC: G01S7/52
Filed: 1989-04-28
Granted: 1992-03-19
Abstract: Acoustic level sensing apparatus is provided, in which pulses of acoustic energy are transmitted by an electrically energized transducer towards a surface to be sensed, and the electrical output from the transducer following the pulse received by a receiver is digitized and analyzed by a programmed microprocessor to detect a return echo from the surface, so as to produce a digitized echo profile. The digitized echo profile is enhanced by removing narrow peaks likely to correspond with certain types of spurious echo (REMOVE_NARROW_ECHOES_F0), and narrow valleys which may represent fragmentation of a wanted echo (REFORM_FRAGMENTED_ECHOES_F0). Echoes are identified by comparing the profile with a time varying threshold generated derived from a linear regression performed on part of the echo profile (TVT_IN_F2), various different types of comparison being performed and their results combined (ALF_ALGORITHM) prior to selecting the most likely true echo on the basis of the combined results (SELECT_BEST_ECHO_FROM_FILE_3).

Title: Fuel& air mixture metering equipment
Inventor: BLOCHER EBERHARD
IPC: F02D41/26
Filed: 1985-01-18
Granted: 1987-07-09
Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus for metering an air-fuel mixture to an internal combustion engine. The apparatus includes a characteristic field set up with operating quantities of the internal combustion engine for anticipatorily controlling engine variables that influence the air-fuel mixture and a control arrangement, responsive to at least one engine variable, for correctively influencing the characteristic field values. The characteristic field values are stored in the characteristic field and selected in dependence on operating quantities of the internal combustion engine. The characteristic field values are modified by means of different control methods to correctively influence the same. More specifically, the control methods include a control to a minimal specific fuel consumption in the lower and part-load ranges as well as a control to maximum power in the upper load range as may be necessary. This control arrangement can be realized, on the one hand, with an extreme-value control which is superposed either on the air or quantity of fuel delivered to the motor or, on the other hand, with a direct control of the air ratio  lambda  with an exhaust gas probe, for example. With the apparatus of the invention, a minimal specific fuel consumption with reduced exhaust gas emissions are realized while at the same time ensuring a satisfying driving behavior of the vehicle.
