Abstract: A tamper-indicating closure for a container includes a cap with removable panels of a top wall of the cap. Each removable panel is connected to a tab on the inside of the cap. The top wall includes inner and outer cams on an inside surface and the tabs underlie the cams. A liner disc is applied inside the cap for sealing against the container. A plurality of spaced-apart ratchet teeth are arranged in one or two circular patterns on the liner disc and sized and located such that the circular pattern of teeth meshes with the two cams. The tabs have a toothed transverse cross-section which allow the tabs to ride over the ratchet teeth in a screwing-on direction to the cap, but the tabs are engaged by the ratchet teeth in a screwing-off direction of rotation of the cap. Since the liner disc and ratchet teeth are stationary with respect to the container, unscrewing of the cap causes the ratchet teeth to separate the panels from the moving cap.

Abstract: An apparatus for discharging a liquid from a container is provided. A mobile unit is disposed in the container in such a way as to be movable therein in a contact-free manner for reducing the volume of the container. A bellows connects the mobile unit in a liquid-tight manner to an inner wall of the container. An interior chamber of the bellows that faces away from the container, together with a housing, form a space that is closed off against the exterior. A spindle, as a drive apparatus, is disposed in this space. The spindle is connected to the mobile unit in the interior chamber of the bellows.

Abstract: An extrusion system utilizes single or tandem extruders and a mixer-cooler to extrude a foamable extrudate through a die in a sealable chamber. The foamable extrudate is shaped and calibrated within the chamber. The die is mounted on the end of a gel tube projecting through a gland seal in a fixed bulkhead forming the upstream end of the chamber. The gel tube and mixer-cooler are mounted on a movable carriage, movement of which may be used to adjust the die with respect to shaping and calibrating equipment inside the chamber. The mixer-cooler achieves a selected narrow range of uniform viscosity of the melt at the die depending on the size of the product and density. The chamber is preferably a vacuum chamber producing low density foams. The product exits the chamber to atmosphere on a continuous basis through a submerged orifice in a water baffle immersion seal. The mixer-cooler enables a large size low density product to be produced with uniform cellular structure without cell collapse or density gradients, as the product is subjected to the pressure and temperature transformations passing from the chamber to atmosphere through the water. The seal includes the submerged orifice with a free wheeling guiding system upstream of the orifice. Immediately ahead of the guiding system, the parameters of the foam extrudate are sensed to control the configuration of the orifice on a continuous basis. Before the extrudate passes into the water baffle seal it moves over a floating dancer roll, the position of which controls a haul-off such as a vacuum belt at the tail end of the system. This avoids pushing on the extrudate.

Abstract: A rate control system suitable for use with a digital video transcoder, such as one conforming to the MPEG standard. The proposed rate control system starts coding without a priori knowledge of the Group of Pictures (GOP) parameters, thereby avoiding a processing delay of about one GOP which would otherwise be incurred to extract the complete GOP structure information. In addition, the system avoids the need to store the data corresponding to the GOP, thereby reducing the memory required for transcoding. An initially allocated bit budget is gradually corrected as successive pictures are coded according to their picture types. Changes in the GOP structure of pre-compressed bitstreams can be addressed, for example, when switching channels or inserting commercials. Target rates with incorrect starting GOP parameters will converge within a few GOPs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This induction type separator for nonmagnetic metallic materials mixed with other nonmetallic materials has the feature of producing magnetic fields of varying intensity and orientation, concentrated in cycles by the co- operation of permanent magnets, present on an independently motorised roller situated inside the surface of a plastic resin cylinder rotating at its own velocity and with transmission by a conveyor belt of the bulk material being separated, with other magnets located inside another idle cylinder placed at an elevation relative to the material in transit on the rotating cylinder but deriving its motion from the motorised cylinder by virtue of the alternate concatenation of the fluxes of their individual magnets of opposite polarity, said transit thus generating mechanical pushes which create, by direct action and/or by recoil, upward movements of the electrically conducting particles, which are combined with the translatory motion possessed by them, to throw them to positions further away from those reached by the electrically insulating particles actuated solely by the translatory motion of the belt, and the upward movements can be oriented forward by displacement of the free magnetic roller. <IMAGE>

Title: System for raising water for civil uses with minimum energy consumption
Inventor: CAMPANINI NINO ALDO
IPC: E03B/
Filed: 1993-05-13
Granted: 1996-09-23
Abstract: The proposed system provides for the raising of water in civil buildings in such a way as to require about half the energy used by current systems; it therefore solves an energy-saving problem. Current systems give the water to raise an identical pressure for all the floors, that corresponding to the highest floor: use in the lower floors therefore dissipates energy. Instead, the proposed system provides each floor with water at the pressure corresponding to the floor itself, thereby using the minimum energy required. This is obtained by actuating the power pump at different speeds, each corresponding to a floor. A flowmeter at each floor signals the amount of energy required to meet the request to the electronic subsystem actuating the pump. The logic of the electronic system also solves the problem of simultaneous requests from different floors. <IMAGE>
