Abstract: The components which are part of the refrigerator unit (1a) and the refrigerant circuit (10a) are arranged separately from the space (passenger cell of a vehicle) to be heated and are sealed hermetically. A closed secondary circuit which contains for example water as a fluid which is innocuous and not chemically harmful transmits the heat between the refrigerator unit and a single heat exchanger (3) which is arranged in a blower air stream (5) which serves to air condition the passenger cell. The cooler unit circuit of the vehicle is also connected to the secondary circuit in order to be able to utilise waste heat from the drive engine (23) and, if appropriate, the batteries of an electric vehicle to air condition the space. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An image processing apparatus obtains an exact distance of a marking portion shown on a document image based upon a magnification (reduction) shown on a document image such as a map. etc. following the sequence of processes as mentioned below. First, a reduction value and a marking portion are recognized from an image data of a document image, and the marking portion is combined with the image data. Next, a dimension of the marking portion is obtained, and the exact distance of the marking portion is calculated based upon the obtained dimension and the reduction value. Then, after the distance value has been combined with the image data, the image data is outputted (copied). By adopting the processes, for example, in the case where an exact distance of a predetermined interval on the map is expected to be obtained, the desired distance value is shown in an outputted image only by preliminarily describing a marking on a specified interval in the document image. This makes it possible to improve added value of the apparatus when the image processing apparatus is applied to a digital copying machine and the like.

The two holding jaws (3a, 3b) are of different length so that they are able to grip around the pipe (2) over different distances, which substantially simplifies the manufacture of the solar absorber. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sheet buffering system for use in a copier or printer producing a sequential stream of sheets with limited time therebetween, and with compiling and finishing of those output sheets on-line while subsequent sheets are being printed, a non-slip sheet feeder (16a,95) normally feeding copy sheets downstream to the compiler is selectably intermittently temporarily stopped holding the lead edge area of the first copy sheet (18) for the next set to be finished so that continued feeding of the trail end of the same sheet by a relatively closely spaced upstream feeder(22a) buckles that sheet into a buckle chamber (30) assisted by a buckle inducing arcuate baffle (13a,14a,14b) extending from the other side of the sheet path. The next printed sheet is fed normally while the buckled first sheet (18) is positively held out of its way. When the second sheet (20) reaches the downstream feeder (16a), it restarts to positively feed both sheets downstream to the compiler, together, but overlapped by a preset amount for registration stacking. A substantial increase is provided in the time for the preceding copy sheets to be operated on in the compiler. A plural sheet collection point may also be provided by this sheet buffering system.

Inventor: YAP LOO T
IPC: F23C9/00

Abstract: The present invention provides an air-oxy-fuel method and apparatus in which fuel is burned in first and second stages of combustion having a fuel-rich and fuel-lean stoichiometry, respectively, to reduce NO x  emissions. The fuel is burned in the first stage of combustion in oxygen. The combustion of the fuel is completed in the second stage of combustion in the presence of air. Mixing of fuel and oxygen is effected by forming fuel and oxygen jets in close proximity to one another. Air is then swirled around the fuel and oxygen jets at a swirl ratio of no less than about 0.6 so that combustion products of the first stage of combustion recirculate to obtain stable combustion of a very fuel-rich flame which is characterized by increased flame luminosity. The use of air allows for a lesser degree of swirling than had a single oxidant been used in both the first and second stages of combustion because a greater mass of air is supplied than oxygen. This in turn allows the air to be swirled with a sufficient forward momentum to locate the second stage of combustion directly downstream of the first stage of combustion.

IPC: F23L1/00

Abstract: An annular combustor system has an annular housing defining a single stage combustor, an external fuel/air premixer system to provide a preselected, nominally constant lean fuel/air ratio mixture for introduction to the combustion zone of the annular housing. Compressed air conduits channel a portion of the total compressed air flow to the premixer and the remainder to the dilution zone of the combustor. Convection cooling of the annular housing and the turbine shroud is accomplished using essentially the remainder portion of the compressed air without diluting the fuel air ratio in the combustion zone. The premixer includes a venturi, and a fuel nozzle for spraying fuel into the venturi inlet along the venturi axis to provide admission of the fully premixed fuel/air mixture. The venturi includes a perforated flow-smoothing and premixing initiating member surrounding both the venturi inlet and the fuel nozzle exit which is spaced from the venturi inlet to prevent impingement of the liquid fuel spray on the venturi walls and augment vaporization of liquid fuels.

Abstract: A chemical analysis film cartridge (20) has a box-like casing body (21) which has first and second end walls (20d,20a) opposed to each other and in which a plurality of dry frameless chemical analysis film chips (1) are stored in a stack extending between the end walls. A first opening (20c) is formed in a side wall (20b) of the casing body at a portion near to the first end wall (20d) of the casing body so that only the film chip nearest to the first end wall in the film chips in the stack can be taken out of the casing body through the first opening by moving the film chip in the direction perpendicular to the direction of the stack. A second opening (20e) which permits a suction pad (170) to hold the film chip nearest to the first end wall and take it out of the casing body through the first opening is formed in the first end wall of the casing body. The cartridge (20) is guided to a predetermined confirming position within the range of the predetermined play when the film chip (1) is taken out from the cartridge, said predetermined confirming position being a position where the cartridge is to be positioned with respect to the suction means (170) in order to permit the suction means to precisely attract a predetermined portion of the film chip. The suction pad is retracted with the film chip held on the suction means so that the film chip held on the suction pad abuts against the edge of the second opening on opposite sides of the suction pad and then further retracted to pull the central portion of the film chip in this state into the second opening, thereby reshaping the film chip into a predetermined warped-shape conforming to the shape of the first opening.
