Patent EP-0231494-B1 (EP)
IPC: G03B27/73
Filed: 1986-12-15
Granted: 1993-03-10
Abstract: In a first measuring phase the values derived from unfiltered light from the exposure light source are stored. In a second measuring phase these values are combined with the continuously measured values derived as the colour filters are moved into their effective positions. The filtering is regulated in dependence upon the combined measurement signal. A degree of colour under-correction, which can be predetermined, results from the combination of the measurement signals from both measuring phases. A flat housing (1) encloses the main parts of the measuring circuit. The upper covering surface (2) is separated into an incident light area (3) and a display and operating area (4). The light area has openings (5,6,7) for red, green and blue sensitive photoelectric transducers.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for distilling, especially vacuum refining and deodorizing edible oils and fats utilizing sheets of oil driven downwardly in a distiller with a vacuum source at its top Fig 3,4. A nozzle includes pressure equalization chambers, cantilever adjustment screws, and a central drag sheet to produce longer lasting and more uniform thin oil sheets to be driven in the distiller Fig. 5 and 11. A continuous process deaerates, dehydrates, degums Fig. 1 and 10, bleaches Fig. 1 and 12, refines Fig. 1 and 14, removes tocopherol Fig. 1 and 16, deodorizes Fig. 1 and 18, and strips peroxides and hydroperoxides Fig. 1 and 20, from raw oil in a series of isother mal stages utilizing driven sheet distillers. No stripping steam is used except in the stage which strips peroxides and hydro peroxides. The method produces valuable, pure products such as tocopherol and fractionated fatty acids. It is especially effi cient in heat exchange and low in waste and pollution producing products. A steam sparging nozzle for distributing steam in the stripping of peroxides and hydroperoxides includes a plurality of small tubes with openings which restrict steam flow so as to pro duce a uniform distribution of optimum size steam bubbles in the steam stripping column of oil Fig 12 and 13. A microwave excitation device radiates the oil immediately prior to forming the driven sheets to excite the more volatile components of the oil for distilling.

Abstract: A widescreen television picture is sampled at a higher sampling rate so as to fit all of the information in the current 52.5 us active video line time. A selection signal is also incorporated with the widescreen picture signal, allowing non-widescreen television receivers to display a contiguous portion of the widescreen picture without geometric distortion. The widescreen television signal is transmitted either in MAC or widescreen NTSC format, and is received by a decoder. The decoder allows the entire widescreen picture to be displayed on a widescreen receiver, and makes use of the selection signal to display the selected portion of the picture on a standard receiver without geometric distortion. In another embodiment, a decoder allows television signals having the standard aspect ratio to be displayed on receivers having widescreen aspect ratios without geometric distortion. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tubular connection is disclosed having a small diameter thread set and a large diameter thread set, the small thread set having a lesser number of threads than the large set. A primary torque shoulder is located between the threads sets and a secondary torque shoulder is located behind the large thread set. In the preferred embodiment, the initial partial thread on the pin of both sets and the last partial thread of the small set on the box has a cylindrical root contour, whereas the remainder of the threads are tapered. The longitudinal taper angle of the pin thread sets are dissimilar to the box thread sets, there being a maximum separation of the sets near the center of the connection. Such dissimilar tapering tends to equalize the stress applied to the threads under tension loading. At the center, a seal is provided with hooked threads on either side thereof. The arrangement also provides a torque shoulder at either end of the large thread set. The arrangement provides in a tapered connection having two thread sets of difference diameters, two torque shoulders and two metal-to-metal seal areas.

Abstract: The invention is a membrane comprising a dense skin of a polyestercarbonate, wherein the diphenolic residue in the backbone of the polyestercarbonate is a tetrabromo diphenolic residue, wherein the membrane has a separation factor for oxygen and nitrogen of 6.5 or greater at 24 DEG C. In another aspect, the invention is a method of separating oxygen from a mixture of gases comprising nitrogen and oxygen, wherein the method comprises (a) contacting the gas mixture with one side of a thin, non-porous membrane comprising a polyestercarbonate described hereinbefore while maintaining a pressure difference across the membrane with the lower pressure being on the other side of the membrane; and (b) removing the permeated oxygen from the other side of the membrane, wherein separation factor for the oxygen and nitrogen is 6.5 or greater at 24 DEG C. The membranes of this invention demonstrate surprisingly high separation factors for oxygen and nitrogen separations. The membranes of this invention have good mechanical properties and therefore are useful under more extreme conditions, for example temperature and pressure, than many commercially used membranes.

Abstract: Process as described in which the extraneous matter is in particular pollutants such as PCB, oil and similar, as well as useful materials such as coal and the like. The bulk material concerned is mixed with washing compounds such as water, tensides and the like and mechanically agitated. The process in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the mixture of bulk material and washing compound is exposed to powerful agitation, whereby the extraneous matter is separated under the effect of high-energy impacts, and that the bulk material, extraneous matter and washing compounds are then separated. Furthermore, the bulk material thus treated can be subjected to further washing with water in order to remove any remaining extraneous matter. The apparatus for performing the process is based on essentially vertical impact walls, in the form of turns of an endless screw (2), arranged inside a tubular container (1) with an essentially horizontal axis (8), said screw being rotated by means of a rotary drive (3) and linear drive (4) and simultaneously displaced with a back and forth jolting movement in order to separate in this way the extraneous matter from the bulk material by the action of high-energy impacts.

Abstract: A photopyrotechnical detonating device and a photopyrotechnical chain using this device are disclosed. A pyrotechnical charge, which can be actuated by a laser beam, is placed in a solid body. The beam is conveyed by an optical fiber which penetrates a connector mounted on the body. The beam, which is divergent when it leaves the fiber, is made parallel by a first lens. A second lens, mounted on the body, makes the beam converge and works with a transparent barrier to focus the beam on a given point. Tight-sealilng means are provided between the transparent barrier and the body of the device, thus ensuring the containment of the charge. The transparent barrier is shaped like a truncated cone which maintains its integrity within a tapered cylinder after firing of the actuating and boosting charges. The tightness of the transparent barrier within the tapered cylinder is enhanced by the sealing means and prevents fragments from entering the detonating device after firing of the charges.
