Patent EP-1386859-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MINO OSWALDO
IPC: B60P3/22
Filed: 2003-07-29
Abstract: A bulk material cargo container system comprises an
inflatable liner (10) which has a plurality of
inflatable air bags (16, 18, 20) integrally incorporated
therein. The inflatable air bags have substantially
right triangular configurations when disposed in their
inflated states. When the inflatable air bags (16, 18,
20) are inflated, the bulk material cargo load can be
discharged without the need for tilting the container
and the liner contained therein. In addition, the bulk
material cargo container, having the new liner (10)
disposed therein, can be used as a silo or storage
facility for the bulk cargo load material. The
inflatable air bags (16, 18, 20) can be inflated to
predetermined degrees so as to cause predetermined
portions of the load material to be discharged as
desired.

Abstract: The present invention provides high brightness kaolins exhibiting a Brightness (GE) of at least about 90.0. The hydrous kaolin pigments of the present invention may also have,  inter alia,  a steepness index (d 30 /d 70  X 100) of at least about 39 and/or a  titania  concentration less than or equal to about 0.40% by weight of the pigment on a dry basis. The hydrous kaolin pigment is produced by a process comprising: a) forming an aqueous suspension of a hydrous kaolin clay; b) forming a primary product by subjecting the suspension to classification or a combination of classification and griding; c), separating the kaolin from impurities by selective flocculation; and d) defining the separated kaolin. The hydrous kaolins of the present invention allow coated papers to be produced at high brightness while maintaining acidic conditions on a paper machine. The invention pigments exhibit brightness levels unexpectedly higher, e.g., about 2 to about 5.2 or more (GE) units brighter, than exhibited by previous high brightness hydrous kaolin pigments, without sacrificing other important paper properties. Paper coated with the inventive pigments have high brightness, high whiteness, and high fluorescence levels. The present invention encompasses these pigments, compositions comprising them, and any application in which they are used.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a membrane separation
apparatus and a membrane separation process that are unlikely to cause
membrane fouling and plugging, capable of achieving membrane separation even
with relatively low flow rate of water, have an excellent membrane packing
density, and are unlikely to cause deposition of foreign components in the
apparatus. In order to achieve the above object, according to the present
invention, vessel-type inner casings are disposed in a pressure vessel along the
longitudinal axis thereof, in which the pressure vessel has a water inlet at a first
end and a concentrate outlet at a second end. A flow-regulating plate is disposed
on the side of the water inlet of the pressure vessel. Stacks of membrane
separation units are respectively disposed in the inner casings, and spacers are
disposed between the adjacent membrane separation elements. The spacers also
serve as sealing members. Each stack of the membrane separation units and the
spacers together define a through-hole extending from a first side to a second side,
of the stack of the membrane separation elements. The inner casings have
permeate discharge passages along the longitudinal axis thereof. The permeate
discharge passages are communicated with the through-hole of each stack of the
membrane separation elements. Water that has been fed into the pressure vessel
via the flow-regulating plate permeates through the membrane separation
elements and is discharged to the outside via the through-holes and the permeate
discharge passages.

Abstract: A ballast for an electrodeless discharge lamp includes a high frequency power supply that supplies a high frequency electric power to an induction coil for operating the lamp. A dimmer controller generates a control signal in response to a dimmer command designating a varying dimming ratio. The control signal defines a first period Ton in which the power supply is controlled to apply a coil voltage of a first level V1 to the induction coil for operating the lamp. The first period is followed by a second period Toff in which the power supply is controlled to apply the coil voltage of a second level V2 that is lower than the first level and fails to sustain the lamp. The control signal defines, between the second period and the first period, a starting period Tst in which the coil voltage increases continuously for smooth transition from an off-condition to an on-condition of the lamp.
