Patent EP-0374179-A4 (EP)
Title: Intermittent solar ammonia absorption cycle refrigerator
IPC: F24S23/70
Filed: 1988-07-27
Abstract: Refrigeration is produced by an intermittent absorption cycle. The cycle is driven by solar radiation, and utilizes NH3 as refrigerant and a liquid, preferably H2O, as absorbent. Referring to FIG. 1, solar radiation is collected during the daytime or in generation mode by a Compound Parabolic Collector 2, which reflects the light onto a cylindrical target vessel 1 containing the absorption working pair. Ammonia is boiled out of the target, the vapor travels to condenser 5 where it is cooled to liquid, and the liquid is stored in receiver vessel 6. During the nighttime, or absorption mode, liquid is released from the receiver vessel into an evaporator coil 8 located in a cold box 9 wherein it vaporizes, thus removing heat from the contents of the cold box. The vaporized ammonia then is absorbed back into the absorbent, in the target vessel. The target vessel contains U-tube 13 of continuous uphill slope which acts as a thermosyphon, in conjunction with condenser 5, thus efficiently cooling the absorbent during the nighttime mode.

Title: Secure image production.
Inventor: RADCLYFFE EDWARD STANLEY
IPC: B42D15/10
Filed: 1990-04-27
Abstract: A component bearing an image is produced by printing the image (12) on a layer (11) of a high temperature glue which has been applied to a layer of a transparent medium (10). The image is printed on the glue layer using carbon or a carbon-containing compound that does not flow when applied to the glue surface. The component consisting of transparent medium, high temperature glue and image is then bonded to a substrate (13) using a thermal bonding process to produce a laminate of the transparent medium and the substrate. The image is not distorted by the thermal bonding process, but remains clearly visible through the transparent medium. Typically the transparent medium will be a polyester film or a sheet of glass beads dispersed in glue. One or more additional layers (27) may be bonded to the substrate (13) to increase the stiffness of the product laminate. <IMAGE>

Title: Multiple electromagnetic tiles for boundary layer control.
Inventor: NOSENCHUCK DANIEL M
IPC: B63G8/00
Filed: 1993-06-25
Abstract: The boundary layer of a fluid travelling in a mean-flow direction relative to a surface of a wall (100) of a body is controlled by generating in the fluid a magnetic field B &cir&  NOt  (103) having flux lines parallel to the surface of the wall and an electric current density J &cir&  NOt  (109) traversing the magnetic flux lines in the fluid to form a control region. An electrolyte or other conductivity-enhancing material (13) is introduced into the flow to provide a conductivity gradient in the fluid flow in the near-wall region. The magnetic field B &cir&  NOt  (103) and the electric current density J &cir&  NOt  (109) create in the control region a force J &cir&  NOt  X B &cir&  NOt  (131) having a component normal to the surface of the wall that because of the conductivity gradient in the fluid flow near the surface can stabilize or destabilize flow in the boundary layer. A plurality of such control regions are arranged in an array of control tiles that can be individually actuated to reduce the power required to provide boundary layer control over a given area.

Title: Exterior automotive laminate with pressure-sensitive adhesive.
Inventor: JOHNSON JOHN R
IPC: B32B27/00
Filed: 1993-11-05
Abstract: A flexible decorative sheet for use in surfacing an automobile body panel includes a first polyester carrier sheet (10) having a high gloss surface, a clear coat (12) of a weatherable optically-clear polymer containing fluorocarbon resin and an acrylic resin coated on the surface of the first carrier sheet, a tie coat (14) on the clear coat, and a color coat (16) containing a chlorinated polymer with dispersed pigments cast on the tie coat and dried. A pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (18) is formed on a second polyester carrier sheet (20) and then laminated to the exposed face of the color coat to form a pressure-sensitive, adhesive-backed composite paint coat between the outer carrier sheets which form protective removable backing sheets for the resulting laminate. The decorative sheet is applied to a substrate panel by pressure-sensitive adhesive bonding techniques, with the clear coat serving as a glossy, weatherable protective outer layer for the underlying color coat. The PVC-containing color coat enhances room temperature elongation of the finished film to enable application of the laminate to three-dimensionally contoured surfaces. The resulting paintfinish has a defect-free, weatherable and durable outer surface with high gloss and high distinctness of image, meeting requirements for exterior automotive use.
Patent EP-0740590-A4 (EP)
Title: Quick-change tool holder with adjustment mechanism
Inventor: ERICKSON ROBERT A
IPC: B23C5/26
Filed: 1993-08-18
Abstract: A quick-change tool holder includes locating means for repeatably locating a cutting unit at a predetermined angular position with respect to a support member. The support member includes an axial bore for receiving a tubular shank on the cutting unit. The tubular shank of the cutting unit includes a keyway having a first locating surface along one side thereof. The clamping mechanism includes a key having a second locating surface along one side thereof. Upon actuation, the clamping mechanism imposes a torque force on the cutting unit to rotate the first locating surface on the cutting unit into abutting relationship with the second locating surface on the key to repeatably locate the cutting unit at a predetermined angular location. The torque force imposed on the cutting unit by the clamping mechanism therefore overcomes any inaccuracies in center-height adjustment attributable to the tolerance between the key and its corresponding keyway.

Title: A plasma delipidation system
Inventor: CHAM BILL ELLIOT
IPC: B01F9/10
Filed: 1994-07-22
Abstract: A separating device for extracting cholesterol from plasma uses a spinner to disperse plasma into an extracting solvent in the form of fine droplets to improve separation efficiency, thereby making it suitable for delipidating blood plasma. Blood plasma is delipidated by providing the plasma to the spinner and dispersing the plasma into the extracting solvent in fine droplets. A de-emulsification step removes residual solvent from the plasma. Blood is removed from an animal and the blood plasma is delipidated. Delipidated plasma is de-emulsified and combined with the animal blood, which is then reintroduced into the animal.

Title: Coin detector and identifier apparatus and method
Inventor: HOFFMAN KIRK D
IPC: G07D5/08
Filed: 1996-09-12
Abstract: A coin detection and identifying apparatus and method, utilizes three closely aligned electric coils. The center coil is actively driven by an alternating current to generate a magnetic field that surrounds the center coil. The two outer coils are symmetrically disposed within the magnetic field generated by the center coil, and voltages are induced across the terminals of the outer coils which are indicative of the relative field strengths of the magnetic fields within the outer coils. A sample coin and test coin are interposed between the center coil and each of the outer coils, the coins operative to attenuate the surrounding magnetic fields. A controller compares the voltages across the terminals of the two outer coils to effectively compare the likeness of the sample and test coins. A coin sensing apparatus, located downstream of the coils, provides a plurality of optic emitter-detector pairs to detect the valid passage of a coin. The plurality of emitter-detector pairs are disposed to provide improved resistance to miscounting of coins and traditional gimmicks, such as tilting the device, used to cheat coin operated devices.
