Abstract: A method and apparatus for drying and/or pre-heating in particular scrap metal with the aid of waste gases deriving from an electric arc furnace. The waste-gases are passed from the electric arc furnace through a line (1,2,3) which is arranged between an external, outwardly insulated container (6) and an inner container (4) for accommodating the scrap metal, with a gap (7,8) located between the waste-gas line and the containers. Air is drawn in through the gap (7,8) and absorbs heat from the wall (3) of the waste-gas line, whereafter the heated air is caused to pass through the scrap (5) in the inner container (4) and to deliver heat to the scrap.

Abstract: A cylindrical coil for providing a magnetic field having a substantially linear gradient in an axial direction within the volume of the cylinder includes a cylindrical coil support structure and electrically conductive winding turns wound on the outer surface of the support structure. The winding turns are electrically insulated from each other and are located such that the axial density of the winding turns increases linearly from the center of the coil to each axial end thereof. Preferably, the winding turns are located so that the angular position φ of the spiral path of the windings on the surface of the cylindrical support structure satisfies the relationship determined by the equationThe coil may also include additional electrically conductive winding turns for compensating for variations in the linearity of the magnetic field gradient which are due to the coil being of finite length. Coils in accordance with the instant invention may be utilized to provide an improved nuclear magnetic resonance imaging and analysis system.

Abstract: Control valve which is constructed from individual function modules according to the building block system. A central function module contains a thermostatic regulating valve (48), and a valve opening (20) and an installation opening (24) arranged coaxially therewith for a second function unit, in particular a safety pilot valve (36). Further modules, e.g. a pressure regulator (62), a main gas throttle (90) or a filter, can be built onto the central function module (double module) according to requirements. The individual modules are interconnected by fastening means (80, 84) which are accessible radially from the circumference of the module housings (10, 64). As a result, the assembly and the disassembly of the modules, even in conditions of confined space, can be made easier and the requirement for installation space for the valve in the heating device reduced.

Title: Battery feed system
Inventor: SMITH DOUGLAS CHARLES
IPC: H04Q3/42
Filed: 1985-07-15
Abstract: Resistive battery feed circuits are normally not used because of lack of power supply noise rejection and attendant crosstalk coupling. In this circuit the opamp (A1) and surrounding circuitry (Q1, Q2, Q10, C1, C2, 1R1, 1R2, R5) insure that power supply and ground noise do not couple into the tip and ring circuits (R1, T1, R2, T2) as a metallic signal and improve crosstalk attenuation. In additon, the opamp is used to split the 48 volts supply.

Abstract: A control circuit comprising a read-only memory (3) has its storage area divided into two areas each containing the same number of addressable words. By arranging that input of a single address signal (An+1) causes a change from addressing a particular word in one area to addressing a corresponding word in the other area, and by programming a fixed difference in value between corresponding words in the two areas causes a step function in the output. Using a digital to analogue converter (1) on the output of the circuit permits a step change in a voltage output (1) to be provided to (eg) a voltage controlled oscillator (4). A control circuit using a read-only memory as a voltage comparator is also disclosed.

Abstract: A power assisted vehicle steering system has a rack and pinion steering gear 6 incorporating a servo motor 6a controlled by a valve 22. A fluid pressure supply line 3 to the valve 22 includes a throttle or regulating valve 5 which is adjustable by a stepping motor 30 that is speed responsive to increase incrementally the restriction by the value 5 to fluid flow to the valve 22 as vehicle speed increases. A flow control valve 7 is responsive to fluid pressure in the line 3 upstream of the valve 5 and to fluid pressure in the line 3 downstream of the valve 5 so that a pressure differential across the valve 5 is sensed by spool 9 which is displaced to open the supply line 3 upstream of the valve 5 and a reservoir 1. This latter opening reduces the supply of pressure fluid available for actuating the servo motor 6a and the available power assistance as the vehicle speed increases.

Title: Improved automated systolic blood pressure monitor with data enhancement
Inventor: RAMSEY III MAYNARD
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 1986-07-04
Abstract: A blood pressure cuff is applied about a subject's artery, and inflated above the systolic level thus fully occluding the artery for a full heart cycle. The cuff pressure is thereafter reduced to permit an increasing flow through the progressively less occluded artery, and a measure of the peak amplitudes of the successively encountered blood flow (oscillatory complex) pulses stored in memory. Also retained is the cuff pressure obtaining for each stored complex peak. In accordance with varying aspects of the present invention, the stored complex peak-representing data ensemble is corrected for aberrations: and improved data processing operates on the stored (and advantageously corrected) pulse peak data and the corresponding cuff pressure information to determine the subject's diastolic arterial blood pressure.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for calcining calcium sulphate dihydrate or like heat sensitive material, in which a bed of the material is heated in a vessel (41) by the direct introduction of a hot gas through a tube (21) extending downwardly into the bed, the proportion of insoluble anhydrite (II) in the product is reduced by lowering the temperature of the hot gas before it contacts the material of the bed. This is done by indirect heat exchange through the wall of the tube with a relatively cool substance, for example, powdered gypsum or recycled exhaust gases, in an outer tube (26). The cooling material in the outer tube contacts the material in the bed before the latter is contacted by the hot gas.
