Title: relé fotoeletrÈnico digital para iluminação pública e/ou privada
Inventor: TESLUK GILSON JOSE
IPC: F21V23/04
Filed: 2006-06-12
Abstract: RELé FOTOELETRÈNICO DIGITAL PARA ILUMINAçãO PúBLICA E/OU PRIVADA A presente invenção refere-se a uma melhoria para aumentar a vida útil dos relés fotoelétricos e fotoeletrónicos existentes atualmente no mercado e utilizados principalmente na iluminação com lâmpadas de alta intensidade de descarga (HID), que sofrem grande desgaste dos contatos metálicos no momento da comutação da energia ao anoitecer e ao desligar a energia ao amanhecer, fazendo com que os contatos do relê se fechem não apenas quando a diferença de potencial for próxima de zero entre a rede e carga, mas também se abram quando a corrente da carga está próxima de zero. O circuito é alimentado pela fase da tensão alternada da rede elétrica (1) e o neutro (2) e protegido contra surtos de descarga atmosférica. (3). Uma fonte de tensão contínua (3) fornece energia para o atracamento do relé (9) e para uma segunda fonte de tensão contínua regulada (5), que alimenta um microcontrolador (6), que é o cérebro do produto. Este microcontrolador (6), através de conversores analógico 1 digital, vai monitorar a quantidade de luz ambiente através do sensor de luminosidade (8). Ao atingir o limite de iluminação para ligar a luz, o microcontrolador (6) vai medir a tensão da carga (7) e calcular em que tensão momentânea da fase (1) o relé (9) deve ser fechado. Após este cálculo o microcontrolador (6) vai medir a tensão da fase (1) e processar esta informação de maneira que o fechamento do contato se dê quando a tensão da carga (7) e da fase (1) sejam muito próximas. Ao atingir o limite de iluminação para desligar a luz, o microcontrolador (6) vai monitorar a corrente da carga através do sensor de corrente (10), que possibilita a abertura dos contatos do relé (9) quando a corrente à igual a zero, eliminando-se assim os desgastes do relé (9) no desligamento da carga. Com o circuito microprocessado é possível inserir atraso ou adiantar o comando para abertura e fechamento do relé. Isto permite a constante auto-correção do acionamento e desacionamento por zero, uma vez que os relés eletromecânicas utilizados nestes produtos possuem molas de lâmina que com a fadiga do dia-a-dia, acabam tendo tempos diferentes de atuação ao longo de sua vida útil, O uso do circuito microprocessado também possibilita o ajuste dos limiares de acionamento e desacionamento da carga em valores iguais, de maneira que se proporcione a economia de energia elétrica.

Filed: 2011-06-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of sealing the crude oil or natural gas flowing out of a steel tube, which is installed in the ocean and used for sucking up oil, when said steel tube breaks. If a deep-sea oil well steel tube (4) breaks in the ocean, an elongate insertion tube (6) having a diameter of about half that of the steel tube (4) and made of a non-magnetic material such as a synthetic resin and having a reticular disc (8) suspended from the end is inserted through the hole (5) at the break of said steel tube (4) up to a prescribed depth and stopped. Magnetic particles of a diameter on the order of millimeters to tens of millimeters are then scattered loosely and dropped from the opening (7) at the top of the insertion tube (6). Said particles attach magnetically to the inner surface of the steel tube (4) near the reticulate disc (8) at the end of the insertion tube (6), and bond to one another to forming clumps, suppressing the flow of crude oil. Then, concrete (24) is injected into the opening (7) at the top of the insertion tube (6) and cured, sealing the flow of petroleum.
