Inventor: WEDEL GREGORY L
IPC: D21F7/00
Filed: 1993-04-29
Abstract: A dryer apparatus is disclosed for drying a pressed web. The apparatus includes a plurality of single tier dryer sections in which successive sections dry alternate sides of the web, the web being transferred between successive sections without any open draw of the web such that the web is uniformly dried on both sides thereof while the web is restrained against cross-machine directional shrinkage. Each of the sections includes a single tier of dryers with an intermediate roll disposed between each adjacent dryer. A dryer felt extends in serpentine configuration around each dryer and roll such that the web is disposed between the felt and each dryer for drying one side of the web. The felt is also disposed between the roll and the web with the felt in direct contact with an alternate side of the web. The intermediate roll defines a plurality of circumferential grooves for diffusing boundary air following the felt that would otherwise tend to lift the web from the felt extending around the roll. The arrangement is such that inherent machine directional shrinkage of the web during drying thereof inhibits crossmachine directional shrinkage of the web during movement of the web between successive dryers.

Abstract: In a process for manufacture of a chemical product, a reactive hydrocarbon feedstream, which varies in composition of the reactive component, is combined with a compatible but unreactive hydrocarbon feedstream to form a blended hydrocarbon stream which is then combined with a reactive alcohol stream of stable concentration of its reactive component, to form a complete feedstream to the reactor. A desired ratio of relative reactant concentrations in the complete feedstream to the reactor is maintained by a control system which maintains a stable concentration in the blended hydrocarbon stream by manipulating flow rate of the unreactive hydrocarbon feedstream responsive to a concentration measurement in the blended hydrocarbon stream. Flow ratio control is then applied to maintain a desired ratio of reactants in the complete feedstream for the reactor by calculating a flow ratio of the blended hydrocarbon stream to the reactive alcohol feedstream. The calculated flow ratio is the process variable input to a manually set ratio controller which manipulates the flow rate of the reactive alcohol feedstream responsive to the flow ratio. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 1,160,201. Centrifugal compressors. CATERPILLAR TRACTOR CO. Feb. 1, 1968, No. 5144/68. Heading F1C. In a turbine-driven charger comprising spaced annular substantially parallel walls defining a diffuser area surrounding the rotor, at least one of the walls is supported for movement towards and away from the other, means mounted in the diffuser area and responsive to velocity of air passing through the diffuser being provided to adjust the position of the movable wall and thereby vary the cross-sectional area of the diffuser. Fig. 1 shows a charger for an I. C. engine, comprising an exhaust-gas turbine 11 driving a centrifugal compressor 12. An annular wall 24 is supported by an annular bellows 28 so as to be movable axially relative to a fixed annular wall 23 to vary the width of the diffuser passage 22. When the speed of the I. C. engine is low and the velocity of air passing through the diffuser passage 22 is consequently low, the resiliency of the bellows 28 tends to hold the wall 24 in a position in which the width of the diffuser passage 22 is a minimum. This prevents compressor surge at low engine speeds. At higher engine speeds the velocity of the air passing around aerofoils 30, Figs. 1, 2 and 3, is high enough to produce a sufficiently low pressure area downstream of each aerofoil to cause withdrawal of air from the interior of the bellows 28 via passages 29. The resultant partial collapse of the bellows 28 causes the wall 24 to recede from the wall 23 to increase the width of the diffuser passage 22.

Title: Weighing apparatus
IPC: G01G1/38
Filed: 1973-01-08
Abstract: 1361961 Weighing apparatus PFISTER WAAGEN GmbH 8 Jan 1973 [7 Jan 1972] 1002/73 Heading G1W A weighing apparatus comprises a pivoted weigh beam carrying an elongated member and a poise weight movable parallel to the elongated member, the elongated member being rotated continuously to reduce frictional resistance to the poise movement. In Fig. 1, a weigh beam 3 is pivoted by bearings 2 and carries an elongate member in the form of a friction roller 4. The roller 4 is mounted by axles 5 passing through bushes 6 in the weigh beam and is rotated by a motor 8 and friction wheel 7 mounted on a frame 9, the frame 9 being articulated by a leaf-spring 10 and urged towards roller 4 by spring 11. The poise weight 13 is carried by a link 12 journalled on the end of one axle 5, and the link 12 is coupled to a pointer 17 by rock 14 and pinion 15. The load is carried by a link 19, and if the load increases, the beam 3 pivots so that the axes of roller 4 and wheel 7 become non- parallel. This gives rise to a frictional force between roller 4 and wheel 7 which causes the roller 4 to move axially until the axes are again parallel and beam 3 horizontal. A counterweight 20 is carried by one axle 5, and abaring device 24 is provided. A leaf-spring 23 slides on an adjustable rail 22 to compensate for linearity errors. A spring 21 at least partially compensates for the force applied to bearings 2 by spring 11. In a modification, Fig. 2 (not shown) the friction roller is mounted on a fixed shaft so as to be longitudinally movable along the shaft. In the embodiment of Fig. 3, the beam 33 carries a friction roller 34 and a parallel support roller 35, both rollers being rotated continuously by a motor 38. The poise weight 41 slides along support roller 35 and carries as arm 42 which drives a pointer 47 via rack 44 and pinion 45. Arm 42 carries a friction wheel 37 which is rotatable about an axis parallel to roller 34 and is also pivotable about an axis 28 at right angles to the rotation axis, the pivoting about axis 28 being controlled by roller 49 engaging an adjustable strip 50. If the load at 29 increases, the weigh beam 33 pivots thus causing the rotation axes of wheel 37 and roller 34 to become non-parallel. The resulting frictional force between wheel 37 and roller 34 causes the wheel 37 and poise weight 41 to move until the axes are again parallel.
