Abstract: An apparatus for determining the aperture illumination of a phased-array antenna is disclosed which evaluates a monitor signal obtained from a first output (A1) of a monitor waveguide (MH) and i.s also suited for an-tennas having a greatly restricted scan angle coverage, such as elevation antennas in MLS systems. To obtain information from a portion of the monitor signal corresponding to at least one cycle of the antenna's far-field pattern, portions of the monitor signal which are visible at different monitor angles are joined together for evaluation. This is accomplished by also evaluating signals obtained from a second out-put of the monitor waveguide which is spatially separat-ed from the first output, or from outputs of additional monitor waveguides, at different monitor angles.

Abstract: The ostomy pouch has a coupling or securement member formed as a washer-shaped wafer of adhesive material, preferably a hydrocolloid. The pouch is secured directly onto the abdominal wall with the adhesive wafer aligned with the stoma. Flushability of the pouch is enhanced by forming the pouch with converging side walls within an optimum angular range and a predetermined pouch width and pouch height. The pouch also has a predetermined wall thickness and the wafer is of predetermined thickness. Thus when the pouch is deposited in a water-saver toilet, bottom end first in a carrier sleeve, the pouch can flow in streamlined fashion through the passages of a toilet and any sewer pipe or septic line connected to the toilet. If the flush capacity of the toilet and the flow rate of water through the toilet and sewer line are increased, the ostomy pouch can be deposited in the toilet without a carrier sleeve.

Abstract: The process consists in taking a fabric piece (1) of a width (A) corresponding to that of the cleaning cloth to be obtained and subjecting it to successive intermittent transversal cuts (3) in the direction of the weft, spaced according to the length (D) of the cleaning cloth, which cuts prevent unravelling and help the user to detach each cleaning cloth individually from the rest of the piece (1), the cleaning cloth having longitudinal edges which may not be unravelled in the direction of the warp. If the piece of fabric is of a width (mA) which is a multiple of the envisaged width (A) of the cleaning cloths (2), longitudinal cuts (5) are made in the piece of fabric spaced apart from each other (A) in the direction of the warp, after which intermittent transversal cuts (3) are made.      The resulting cleaning cloth (2) consists in a rectangular portion of fabric whose four edges may not be unravelled.

Abstract: A mold cooling apparatus comprising a pair of complementary mold arms, each arm supporting mold halves such that when the arms are moved toward one another the molds halves form plural cavities. Each mold arm supports a first air chamber to which air under pressure is supplied and a second air chamber communicating with the first chamber and having an opening facing substantially the entire length of each mold half. A diffuser plate closes each second chamber and is positioned in close proximity with its respective mold half. The diffuser plate has openings for directing air from the second chamber against the mold half. Each mold half has axial exhaust openings extending from the space between the mold half and the exterior.      The mold cooling apparatus can be applied to individual cavity as well as multi-cavity mold equipment. When a multi-cavity configuration is used, supplemental cooling is utilized through introduction of compressed air from a secondary source to axial and interconnected passages within the mold halves.

Abstract: A process control system uses a performance model, in conjunction with an economic model, to meet either performance or economic objectives. The system operates either automatically, on-line, in "real time" or manually off-line, in "real time" to optimize the process to meet a selected objective. The performance model uses neural networks to determine the interrelationships of each of a set of independent variables (controllable inputs to the process) to each other and their relationship to a set of dependent variables (outputs of the process). The performance model is used to optimize the process to meet performance objectives. The economic model is used in conjunction with the performance model to meet economic objectives.

Granted: 2000-09-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing sequential temporal and spatial integration of a collimated non-symmetrical excimer laser beam to optimize the temporal and spatial characteristics of the beam. The temporal integrator comprises a pair of cylindrical lenses spaced along the beam axis by a distance substantially equal to the sum of the focal length of both lenses, and a motor mechanism for rotating the two spaced cylindrical lenses about the beam axis. The spatial beam integrator includes a plurality of prisms distributed about a hollow center, the outlet face of each prism being angled with respect to the body axis of the spatial beam integrator so that portions of the laser beam passing through a given prism are refracted towards the center upon emergence from the outlet face. The spatial beam integrator is preferably rotated about the beam axis at twice the rotation rate of the cylindrical lenses so that the rotated beam emerging from the temporal beam integrator is stationary with respect to the spatial beam integrator.  Alternatively, the spatial beam integrator may be rotated at the same rate as the cylindrical lenses, or may be maintained stationary, i.e., not rotated at all.

Title: Process for deasphalting bitumen
Inventor: CHAKRABARTY TAPANTOSH
IPC: B03B9/02
Filed: 1995-12-21
Granted: 1998-06-02
Abstract: A process for upgrading heavy oil and bitumen includes deasphalting the bitumen by de-watering the bitumen/water emulsion to a water concentration of from about 0 to about 20% by volume. A surfactant is added to the de-watered bitumen/water emulsion to form a stable asphaltene-in-water emulsion as a separate phase from the deasphalted bitumen. The surfactant is preferably non-ionic and, more preferably, an ethoxylated alkyl phenol. In accordance with the present invention, the viscosity of the bitumen is significantly reduced and the quality of the bitumen is improved. The asphaltene is recovered in a useable form which can be used as a source of fuel at the production site and which additionally can be used to enhance the recovery of the bitumen from the rock formation.
