Title: Additives for the cure with peroxides of fluoroelastomers containing bromine or iodine
IPC: C08K5/35
Filed: 1989-12-14
Granted: 1993-01-28
Abstract: The emission of the highly toxic volatile products methyl bromides or iodides or ethyl bromides or iodides during the curing of fluoroelastomers containing bromine or iodine atoms with peroxides, is substantially reduced by adding to the cure mix small amounts of substances capable of combining with the radicals which give rise to the abovesaid toxid products, thereby preventing them from forming. This procedure does not significantly affect the cure trend and results.

Title: Cementitious cartridge for rock-bolting
Inventor: MURPHY JOHN MICHAEL
IPC: F16B13/14
Filed: 1979-05-15
Granted: 1983-08-11
Abstract: A frangible cartridge for anchoring a reinforcing element such as a rock-bolt in a borehole in rock strata, for example an underground mine roof, contains as separate components (A) a hydraulic substance mixed with a non-aqueous water-miscible liquid which is inert with respect thereto to form a paste-like mass and (B) an aqueous liquid, preferably water, which is capable of reacting with the hydraulic substance in component A on being brought into contact therewith when in use a reinforcing element is caused to break the cartridge and mix together components A and B within the borehole so as to form a cementitious grout around the reinforcing element, said grout serving when hardened to anchor the reinforcing element in the borehole. This cartridge is safer for use in coal mines and the like than the conventional resinous cartridges and is more reliable than cartridges in which the hydraulic substance is present in a dry form.

Title: Manufacture of metal can bodies
Inventor: SLATER DAVID GARY
IPC: B21D51/26
Filed: 1989-12-21
Granted: 1992-02-20
Abstract: In a method of forming at an open end (68) of a can body (10) an out-turned end flange (14,26) and an adjoining inward bead (16,28), the free end (68) of the can body (10) is carried frictionally in an annular groove (42) formed in a transverse end face (48,39) of a rotating driving head (32). In a first stage, an inner support roll (52) is placed inside the can body (10) in contact with its inner surface (64) at a position spaced axially from the driving head (32), and an outer work roll (54) is progressively advanced against the outer surface (6) of the can body (10) adjacent the driving head (32) so as to form the inward bead (16,28), and thereby gradually retract the open end (68) of the can body (10) within the groove (42). In a second stage, the inner roll (52) is advanced to a can body stabilising position, and the work roll (54) is then advanced further so as to withdraw the open end (68) of the can body (10) from the groove (42) and then to turn it radially outwards as the can body end (68) advances eccentrically across the rotating end face (48) of the driving head (32). During the formation of the end flange (14,26) the inner roll (52) is progressively advanced so as to maintain its can stabilising action whilst the can body end (68) progresses across the rotating end face (48) of the driving head (32).

Title: Hydration of nitriles to amides
Inventor: ASANO SHIRO
IPC: C07D213/81
Filed: 1985-09-10
Granted: 1987-05-07
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for the hydration of a nitrile compound. Owing to the use of a Raney copper catalyst having an iron content of 0.7 wt. % or less based on the copper component in a suspended state, the process allows the catalyst to retain high activity and facilitates the separation of the catalyst and liquid reaction mixture by sedimentalion and/or filtration. In an example, a catalyst with 0.1 iron achieved 67% conversion of acrylonitrile to acrylamide, whereas a catalyst with 1.56% iron achieved only 40%.

Title: System for controlling mass flow rates of two gases
Inventor: SMITH DAVID H
IPC: F02D19/02
Filed: 1986-12-22
Granted: 1990-02-22
Abstract: A control system for internal combustion engines, including a first conduit for the flow of intake air, and a second conduit for the flow of natural gas to be mixed with the air for combustion. The flow of the air is variable over a range of mass flow rates during operation of the engine and an air mass sensor is positioned to sense the mass flow rate in the first conduit and generate a first flow rate signal indicating the mass flow rate. A natural gas mass sensor is positioned to sense the mass flow rate of the gas in the second conduit and to generate a second flow rate signal indicating the mass flow rate of the natural gas. The first and second flow rate signals are compared in an electronic controller that generates a control signal if the first and second flow rates vary from a predetermined ratio. The ratio is selected to provide a substantially stoichiometric ratio of air and natural gas. A valve is provided to adjustably control the flow rate of the natural gas in response to the control signal to maintain the preselected ratio. A sensor and shutoff valve are also provided for terminating the flow of the natural gas when its pressure falls below a predetermined pressure, allowing immediate flow of gasoline to the engine, thus assuring smooth, continued operation of the vehicle. A throttle body has a natural gas distribution ring in the throat of the body and provides a curtain flow of gas.

Title: Shoe with central clasp
Inventor: BERGER CHRISTOPH
IPC: A43C11/14
Filed: 1991-08-05
Granted: 1995-05-25
Abstract: The invention concerns a shoe, in particular a shoe for sport, leisure or rehabilitation purposes, with a centrally positioned clasp mounted on a dimensionally stable instep covering which can be moved towards or away from the instep. The clasp is designed so that it can be used with shoes having uppers made of material which is flexible with respect to tensional forces, i.e. with shoes which do not have dimensionally stable sheath-like uppers. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the centrally positioned clasp (24) is fitted on a mounting plate (23) which is attached to a flexible tongue (15). The mounting plate (23) is significantly smaller than the length on the instep (26), thus allowing substantial parts of the tongue (15) to remain flexible.
