Title: Appareil de distribution seche de matieres fibreuses
Inventor: CHRISTENSEN KENN MOSGAARD
IPC: D04H1/72
Filed: 2001-01-26
Granted: 2007-09-25
Abstract: Dans des installations de distribution sèche destinées à la formation d'une rangée de matière fibreuses sur un treillis métallique perforé de formation, pourvu d'une caisse d'aspiration sous-jacente et d'une caisse de distribution supérieure, dans lesquelles une paire de tambours tournants perforés permettent d'apporter un flux de fibres à air fluidisé, qui est ensuite rejeté vers le bas sur le treillis métallique par l'aspiration d'air vers le bas par la caisse d'aspiration depuis l'extrémité supérieure de la caisse de distribution, on a rencontré des problèmes en ce qui concerne la formation d'agglomérats de fibres sur le côté extérieur des tambours et à l'intérieur de la caisse de distribution. L'invention permet de minimiser ces problèmes en plaçant des plaques de couverture (18) à une certaine distance en-dessous du niveau supérieur des tambours, ces plaques permettant essentiellement de protéger le débit d'air continu dans les espaces verticaux et les parois latérales adjacentes de la caisse de distribution, ce qui donne lieu à une augmentation de la concentration de l'air fourni directement dans les tambours et fait croître également la capacité de distribution de l'installation.

Granted: 2011-09-06
Abstract: A process for the transalkylation of an aromatic feedstock containing a benzene component and a polyalkylated aromatic component comprising at least one polyalkyl aromatic compound of at least nine carbon atoms. The feedstock is supplied to a reaction zone containing a metal modified zeolite transalkylation catalyst. The reaction zone is operated under conditions providing an equivalent conversion of pure toluene in the presence of the catalyst within the range of 40-55%, resulting in a transalkylated product with a reduced polyalkyl benzene content and an enhance monoalkyl benzene content relative to the transalkylation feedstock. In continued operation of the transalkylation reaction zone, at least one of the reaction conditions of temperature, pressure, and space velocity is adjusted in order to maintain a constant reaction severity to provide a desired equivalent conversion of toluene within a tolerance range of ~ 2%. Specifically, the temperature is progressively increased while continuing the operation of the transalkylation zone to maintain a condition of constant reaction severity.

Abstract: A multi-media method and system performs psychological assessment of an individual (81) for suitability for particular jobs, whereby the individual is shown and provided with discrete visual and auditory stimuli on a multi-media computer screen, so that the individual's responses can be monitored in conjunction with physiological responses received by biofeedback sensors. The computer tallies the test subject's recorded responses. Virtual work environments are optionally displayed, to enable the tested individual to simulate a real work environment. Unlike other job evaluation systems, the system evaluates a job candidate's ability to maintain task focus under pressure. It directly measures performance under pressure (80), rather than only inferring potential performance based upon selective input from a job candidate.

Abstract: An aluminum casting method includes the step of applying in advance a mold release agent including magnesium to a mold surface. Thereafter, a nitrogen gas is injected into a cavity to cause reaction between the magnesium in the surface of the mold release agent and the nitrogen gas, thereby forming magnesium nitride. Since the nitrogen gas reacts only with the magnesium exposed in the surface of the mold release agent, the forming time of the magnesium nitride is reduced and also the amount of nitrogen gas used is reduced.

Abstract: An automatic siren silencing device for false alarms, for use in an alarm system having a siren driver which powers a siren. A microcomputer monitors pulse signal characteristics of the siren driver, including duration of pulses and number of pulses, and compares these characteristics with predetermined pulse signal characteristics stored in a memory. A relay coil is energized by the microcomputer, controlling a relay switch which disconnects the siren from the siren driver when the pulse signal characteristics are indicative of a false alarm thereby silencing the siren. A user means is provided to adjust the predetermined pulse signal characteristics. Power to the microcomputer is provided by a capacitor, charged by the signal of the siren driver, whereby no battery or dedicated external power supply input is required. Indicator lights and a piezo element inform a user of siren silencing, and indicate the types of false alarms detected.

Title: Belt tensioner with installation pin
Inventor: TAO YINCHU
IPC: F16H7/02
Filed: 2002-07-31
Granted: 2010-10-05
Abstract: A belt tensioner for tensioning the belt of a belt drive system includes an eccentric adjusting member, a pivot structure eccentrically mounted on the adjusting member for pivoting around the adjusting member, a belt-tensioning pulley mounted to rotate on the pivot structure, a biasing member that resiliently biases the pivot structure in a belt-tightening direction, and a coupling structure. The coupling structure temporarily couples the pivot structure to the adjusting member to pivot with it during a belt installation procedure, and the configuration keeps the coupling structure unloaded except for a limited period of time during the installation procedure such that the coupling structure can be installed and removed easily. The tensioner is rendered operative after the pivot structure is uncoupled from the adjusting member, thus allowing the pivot structure to pivot with respect to the adjusting member.
