IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 1994-08-19
Abstract: The invention provides an inhaler 140 for delivering a substance in a finely divided form. The inhaler 140 comprising an air intake and an inhalation passage 144 communicating with the air intake. A receptacle 145 in combination with a metering device having first and second end elements sealing against the inner walls of the receptacle so as to define an intermediate dosing space loaded with a desired volumetric dose of the substance is provided. The relative dimensions of the metering device and receptacle 145 are such that the device has a tendency to remain in the receptacle unless actively urged out of it. Indexing means 146 operate to move the receptacle into a position in or adjacent the inhalation passage and means are provided for urging the metering device at least partially out of the receptacle so as to release the dose of substance contained in the receptacle into the inhalation passage when the receptacle occupies its position in or adjacent the inhalation passage 144. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1996-01-12
Abstract: The invention concerns a method of water management in a counterflow washing plant with a multiplicity of chambers connected to each other in series. Washing auxiliaries are added and process water is re-used to the maximum extent in order to minimize fresh-water consumption, at least part of the rinse water being re-used as wash water. The invention also concerns an installation for feeding in and discharging water and for adding washing agents in a washing plant designed for water management by the method proposed. In particular, the invention concerns a method and installation for water management in such plants for washing textile fabrics, an agent such as peracetic acid being added as an auxiliary which liberates active oxygen to disinfect and/or bleach the fabric. The process water is re-used, without causing excess consumption, by routing it in such a way that no water containing washing auxiliaries arrives in the pre-wash zone.

Abstract: 692,648. Charging shaft furnaces. SœD DEUTSCHE KALKSTICKSTOFF-WERKE AKT.- GES. Jan. 15, 1951 [May 9, 1950], No. 1026/51. Class 51(ii) In a feeding device for a shaft furnace in which a two-part sealing bell structure is used such that depression of the bell allows material to be distributed around the periphery of the shaft, whilst lifting of the bell ensures that material is directed to the centre of the shaft distributer cone depending from the bell is so surrounded by a basket grate which is attached to the bell that material distributed towards the centre of the shaft when the bell is raised is sifted the larger particles passing to the centre of the shaft and the smaller particles passing through the grate in a direction towards the periphery of the shaft. In the shaft furnace shown charge material such as limestone &c. is fed into the hopper 2 and on depression of the bell structure it falls over the upper conical surface 5 of the bell 4 towards the periphery of the shaft. The bell structure is then returned to its closed position (shown in Fig.) and fuel is introduced into the hopper. The bell is then raised allowing the fuel to fall between the distributer cone 6 and the basket grate 11 both of which are attached to the bell structure. The larger fuel particles which cannot pass between the bars forming the grate fall into the centre of the shaft whilst the particles which do pass through the grate are directed towards the shaft periphery. Rods 15 arranged in the upper end of the shaft 1 act as a sieve-grate and prevent larger pieces of fuel or charge passing to the shaft periphery. Each second grate bar 13 is curved, at its lower end, in towards the centre of the shaft.

Abstract: 756,845. Radio navigation. SPERRY CORPORATION. Jan. 14, 1953, No. 1161/53. Drawings to Specification. Class 40 (7). In a Loran radio navigation receiver system, sky-wave distortion effects are reduced by sampling the master and slave received pulses at the leading edges. The commencements of both received master and slave pulses are determined by similar servo loops which sample, or gate, the received pulses at a predetermined level, e.g. 2 volts, and also measure the slope of the pulse leading edge. Two embodiments are described, in the first of which the time delay between the received pulses is displayed, automatically, on a motor-driven indicator, while in the second, manual adjustment is used to indicate the time delay on a C.R.T. In the first embodiment, pulses are generated at the commencement of the received master pulse by means of a variable-frequency oscillator, controlled by a feedback loop producing gating pulses which sample the received pulse at an amplitude of 2 volts and incorporating a control which is a function of the slope of the received pulse leading edge. With the received slave pulse, sampling is effected by a gating pulse from a feedback loop, as with the master pulse, but the variable oscillator is replaced by a variable delay circuit fed from both feedback loops, the output of which is a series of pulses, the pulse duration being the required delay. In the second embodiment, circuits identical to that employed in the first embodiment to produce the pulses coincident with the beginning of the master pulses produce pulse trains coincident with the beginnings of both master and slave pulses which are applied to a C.R.T. through a variably adjusted delay circuit. Specification 668,777 is referred to.

Title: Manufacture of free ªÏ-methane-sulphonic acids of pyrazolone-amines
Filed: 1935-01-14
Abstract: o -Methanesulphonic acids of primary or secondary pyrazolone-amines are manufactured by causing a pyrazolone-amine to react with formaldehyde and sulphurous acid in presence of an organic solvent and of a quantity of water not exceeding that necessary for the formation of a concentrated formaldehyde solution or by acidifying a salt of a pyrazolone-aminomethanesulphonic acid in the presence of an organic solvent and in presence of water the proportion of which in the final reaction mixture does not exceed the maximum permissible in the above process.  As organic solvents may be used alcohols or ketones of low molecular weight, e.g. methyl, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl alcohol, acetone or methylethyl ketone, also ethyl acetate or benzene, if desired with the addition at any stage of a second solvent, e.g. ether, if the product is easily soluble in the first. The reaction may be carried out by reacting the amine simultaneously with the formaldehyde and sulphurous acid, or by causing the amine sulphite first prepared to react with the formaldehyde, or by causing the Schiff's base or methylene-bis compound, prepared from the amine and formaldehyde, to react with sulphurous acid, with the addition, in the latter case, of a further molecular proportion of formaldehyde.  When causing the pyrazolone-amine to react with formaldehyde and sulphurous acid it is advantageous to work with solvents miscible with water, but when acidifying the methanesulphonic acid salts it is also possible to use solvents not miscible with water.  The process provides a method for obtaining the sparingly soluble methylsulphonic acids of monoalkylaminopyrazolones in a pure form from the crude starting materials containing quantities of the corresponding primary and tertiary amines.  The products are applicable for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products.  In examples: (1) 1-phenyl-2 : 3-dimethyl-4-methylamino-5-pyrazolone is reacted with aqueous formaldehyde and sulphurous acid in the presence of absolute alcohol; (2) the same reaction is effected in the presence of acetone; the product may be transformed into its sodium, magnesium or calcium salt; (3) 1 - phenyl - 2 : 3 - dimethyl - 4 - benzylamino - 5-pyrazolone is treated as in (1); (4) the sodium salt of 1-phenyl-2:3-dimethyl-4-methylamino-5-pyrazolone-4 -methanesulphonic acid is acidified with hydrochloric acid in the presence of alcohol; (5) 1-cyclohexyl-2 : 3-dimethyl-4-methylamino-5-pyrazolone (obtained as described in Specification 433,053) is treated as in (1) and the methanesulphonic acid is precipitated with ether; (6) 4 : 4<1>-methylene-bis-1 - phenyl - 2 : 3 - dimethyl - 4 - methylamino - 5-pyrazolone is reacted with aqueous form-aldehyde and sulphurous acid in the presence of alcohol.
