Inventor: FUJIWARA HIROSHI
IPC: B21B13/10
Filed: 1999-09-24
Abstract: A rolling mill comprising a roll unit and a drive unit for driving the roll unit. The drive unit comprises an outer housing, a pair of large-diameter ring-like driving bevel gears disposed concentric with the pass line, an input shaft mechanism for rotating the driving bevel gears, and transmission mechanisms for transmitting the torque of the driving bevel bears to the rolls. Each transmission mechanism comprises a small-diameter transmission bevel gear caught between and engaging with the driving bevel gears and first and second transmission shafts for transmitting the torque of the transmission bevel gear to a roll. The drive and roll units are coupled and uncoupled by couplings. Four positioning parts are formed on the outer periphery of the inner housing of the roll unit. The outer housing of the drive unit is generally in the shape of a ring, and four positioning parts are formed on the inner periphery of the outer housing. When the inner housing is fitted into the outer housing, the inner housing is positioned in the outer housing by the positioning parts laterally and longitudinally and also in both directions of the pass line by stoppers and hold-downs.

Filed: 1999-11-02
Abstract: A system for enhancing hydrocarbon production in long and deviated subterranean wells, comprises proppant in the annulus between the screen liner and the borehole, annular isolation elements, and selective flow control in combination. The significant control provided by the system enables the well operator to impose sequential control or commingled production from multiple producing intervals of the borehole. A differential valve is incorporated in the screen liner service string to allow for proppant placement across multiple screen-liner sections, separated by annular isolation elements in a single placement operation, thereby significantly reducing time and complexity of such operations.

Title: Delta-sigma modulator for fractional-n frequency synthesis
Inventor: RILEY THOMAS ATKIN DENNING
IPC: H03M7/00
Filed: 2000-01-07
Abstract: A delta sigma modulator which uses at least one quantizer having a dead zone, The dead zone quantizer outputs a zero when its input is within the dead zone range, It outputs a predetermined value if the input is above the dead none range. If the input is below the dead zone range, the quantizer outputs another predetermined value. Ideally, the quantizer dead zone thresholds are complimentary in that the upper threshold for an input is the positive value of the lower threshold. Also, to save on accumulator bits, the delta sigma modulator selects a predetermined number of most significant bits at different stages.

Title: Method of controlling release of antimicrobial agents in chewing gum and gum produced thereby
Inventor: ZIBELL STEVEN E
IPC: A23P1/12
Filed: 1997-12-30
Abstract: A method for producing a chewing gum with a controlled release of an antimicrobial agent, as well as the chewing gum so produced is obtained by physically modifying the release properties of the antimicrobial agent by coating and drying. The antimicrobial agent is coated by encapsulation partially coated by agglomeration, entrapped by absorption, or treated by multiple steps of encapsulation, agglomeration, and absorption. The coated antimicrobial agent is preferably then co-dried and particle sized to produce a release-modified antimicrobial agent for use in chewing gum. When incorporated into the chewing gum, these particles are adapted to produce a fast release or a delayed release when the gum is chewed. The preferred antimicrobial agent is chlorhexidine digluconate.
