Title: Radiant thermal integration with regenerative heating in a high temperature electrochemical covverter
Inventor: HSU MICHAEL S
IPC: H01M8/24
Filed: 1993-11-24
Granted: 1996-09-05
Abstract: A high temperature electrochemical converter provides regenerative heating of electrochemical converter reactants to an operating temperature using an exhaust flow. Additionally, a radiant thermal integration configuration transfers heat from an electrochemical converter assembly to power a bottoming plant, thereby achieving flexible and efficient system design. In a fuel cell operating mode, for example, it facilitates the recovery of waste heat of the fuel cell reaction for integration with bottoming thermodynamic devices, such as a gas or steam turbine. The radiant thermal integration is accomplished by efficient radiative heat transfer between the external columnar surface of the converter assembly and the heat transfer assembly containing the working medium of a heat sink or a heat source device, and by a regenerative process where incoming reactants are heated to the converter operating temperature by outgoing exhaust.

Title: Elastomer treatment process to decrease peroxide levels
Inventor: GELOTTE KARL M
IPC: C08F6/28
Filed: 1998-02-04
Granted: 2002-04-11
Abstract: A novel process has been developed for the treatment of crosslinked ethylene-propylene diene monomer (EPDM) elastomer material to decrease its residual peroxide levels. EPDM is used to form the seats and neck gaskets of metering valves used in metered-dose inhalers (MDI). For filled and inverted MDI units these EPDM components are in direct contact with the pharmaceutical formulation media. The process involves exposing the EPDM valve components to a solution of 2-mercaptoethanol, a chemical reducing agent. The 2-mercaptoethanol greatly diminishes the residual peroxide levels in EPDM by reducing the peroxide functional groups to the corresponding hydroxyl groups. EPDM components treated in this manner have demonstrated very low peroxide levels and, consequently, greatly improved compatibility with the pharmaceutical formulation in the inhaler. An advantage of this approach is that the treated EPDM would likely retain its favorable physical properties and its good performance in metering valves. In this work 2-mercaptoethanol was used as the model reducing agent. It is believed, however, that similar positive results can be obtained using other reducing agents, notably other volatile compounds containing sulfur in one of its lower valence states (i.e. other thiol compounds or sulfur dioxide).

Title: Oxy/oil swirl burner
Inventor: FELDERMANN CHRISTIAN JUAN
IPC: F23D11/10
Filed: 1998-04-27
Granted: 2001-02-08
Abstract: A liquid fuel burner (10) is provided with a central fuel outlet (18) having a generally divergent conical inner surface, formed of two contiguous divergent conical surfaces (20a, 20b) of different angles of divergence, and a plurality of oxygen outlets (22) shaped and positioned for creating a converging, rotating stream of oxygen which intersects with any liquid fuel issuing from the fuel outlet (18). Such oxygen/fuel interaction results in two zones of combustion and a recirculation effect which assists in the complete or substantially complete combustion of undesirable exhaust gas components. The oxygen and fuel are preferably supplied such that their velocities are approximately equal at the point at which the two zones of combustion meet. <IMAGE>

Title: A wireless communication device and method
Inventor: AULT JAN C
IPC: H04W88/06
Filed: 1998-03-04
Granted: 2002-10-10
Abstract: A wireless communication device which automatically and seamlessly switches to an alternate, available system when it is unable to complete a call origination attempt, without requiring the user to take any affirmative actions to select the alternate system or re-initiate a call origination. The wireless communication device decreases the percentage of call failures by providing a hold-over of pending call origination attempts until service is finally acquired. In the case of either exceeding the maximum number of access sequences (reverse link limited) or failure to acquire the forward link of the preferred communication system (forward link limited), the user is not required to re-initiate the call origination, thus turning a potential call failure into a success.

Patent DE-1762445-B2 (DE)
IPC: G10L19/02
Filed: 1968-06-19
Abstract: 1,233,922. Vocoder. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. 19 June, 1968 [21 June, 1967], No. 29108/68. Addition to 1,233,462. Heading H4R. In apparatus for multiplexing the outputs of the vocoder analyser of parent Specification on to a telephone line the spectrum function output is peak detected to produce a signal having frequency components in the range 0-300 Hz which is modulated with a carrier of 1100 Hz and the upper side-band selected for transmission, the excitation function signal, comprising a base band signal in the range 300 to 800 Hz is transmitted unchanged, together with two pilot signals of 900 and 2000 Hz respectively from which the vocoder analyser synchronizing signal and the demodulator carriers are derived, the two frequencies being used so as to provide cancellation of frequency shift in the line, e.g. due to carrier working. Also described is a method of multiplexing the outputs of two vocoders on a single line. Fig. 1 shows a transmitter, including a vocoder analyser 4 of the type described with respect to Fig. 1 of the parent Specification. The excitation function signal, comprising a base band section of the speech signal in the band 300-800 Hz is fed direct to the line via adding circuit 19. The spectrum function signals are level detected in 5 and low-pass filtered in 6, modulated by an 1100 Hz carrier in 22, the upper sideband selected in 23 and applied to the adder 19 for transmission. The carrier for modulator 22 is derived from the difference signal between the 900 Hz pilot from oscillator 16 and the 2000 Hz pilot from oscillator 17. The 2000 Hz pilot is also divided to obtain a signal of 50 Hz to control the operation of the frequency shift circuit 13 in the vocoder analyser 4. At the receiver, Fig. 4, the carrier for demodulating the spectrum function signal selected by filter 29 is derived from the two pilots by deriving their difference signal in modulator 32 and filter 33. This difference frequency, 1100 Hz, is divided by 11 in 37, and multiplied by 2 in 38 to provide a 200 Hz signal which modulates the 900 Hz signal, received from the line, in 39 to produce an 1100 Hz signal which is applied via a filter 40 and phase shifter 41 to the modulator 42. Any frequency shift in the spectrum function signal received from the line is cancelled by the same frequency shift present in the 900 Hz signal applied to the modulator 39. The 1100 Hz signal from 33, from which frequency shift is eliminated since it is derived from the difference between two similarly shifted signals, is divided by two in 34, delay equalized in 35, and the resulting 550 Hz signal is applied to divider 36 where it is divided by eleven to produce a 50 Hz signal to synchronize the variable frequency oscillator 47. A similar system is described with respect to Figs. 6 and 7 (not shown) to derive carriers and synchronizing signals for the transmission by frequency multiplex of the outputs of two vocoder analysers.

Title: Hydraulic three-cylinder thrust piston pump - with precompression dependent on operating conditions to precise pumping pressure
IPC: F04B9/117
Filed: 1970-12-24
Abstract: Hydraulic three-cylinder thrust piston pump comprises non-return valves in the cylinder head, and a hydraulic cycle control circuit for successively driving the motor pistons which, during the pumping stroke of a first piston, begins the pumping stroke of a second piston to obtain precompression and switches the third piston to the suction stroke. The second cylinder creating precompression is connected via a throttle to the same pressure source as the first cylinder producing a pumping action. When pressure is equal in the pump cylinders and therefore in the motor cylinders, precompression stops automatically. The pump piston in the precompression phase advances until precompression reaches pumping pressure, the stroke required for this being dependent on compressibility of the liquid being pumped and the level of pumping pressure.
