Patent GB-2313901-A (GB)
Title: Mobile incinerator for animal carcasses
Inventor: SHERWEN RONALD
IPC: F23G5/16
Filed: 1996-06-06
Abstract: Animal carcasses are comminuted, minced or macerated and fed into a rotary furnace 1 for incineration. Bone and charcoal leaves by exit chute 10 and smoke laden gas is further burnt in an afterburner 11. At start-up the furnace is preheated by a burner 8. Upon entry fat ignites and following this combustion is maintained by preheated combustion air Preheated combustion air and a burner are arranged tangentially in the afterburner to induce swirl and reduce the forward velocity of the gasses in the afterburner towards the exit. This increases the reaction time and ensures good mixing with the preheated combustion air. The combustion air is preheated by gasses exiting the apparatus via a heat exchanger 16. The apparatus is mobile and is used for incinerating BSE infected carcasses.

Title: Apparatus for measuring percentage dot in printing and the like applications
Inventor: COLTHORPE STEVEN NICHOLAS
IPC: G01N21/59
Filed: 1996-08-27
Abstract: Apparatus for determining the percentage dot in half-tone images incorporates a CCD camera, the output of which is processed by electronic circuitry in such a way that the circuitry counts the number of light sensitive elements of the CCD array providing a "black" level signal, derives from that count a value for percentage dot and displays the percentage dot values arrived at on a display. The circuitry may include means for determining or adjusting the threshold CCD signal below which a "black" level will be assumed and above which a "white" level will be assumed. The apparatus is preferably housed within a housing 16 which can be manipulated by hand and which has aligned windows 18, 22, in its lower and upper surfaces through which the half-tone image being monitored can be viewed and an angled half-silvered mirror 20, between the windows 18 and 22, arranged to direct some of the light from the image being monitored through a lens system 24 onto CCD array 26.

Title: Drillpipe structures to accomodate downhole testing
Inventor: KOPECKI DENIS S
IPC: E21B47/12
Filed: 1999-05-18
Abstract: A drill collar structure 10 to facilitate measurement-while-drilling (MWD) techniques while at the same time having sufficient rigidity to facilitate the drilling operation is disclosed. In some embodiments, a metal structure involving openings such as slots, preferably oriented longitudinally along its axis, but also in other configurations, are disclosed to allow sufficient strength while at the same time allowing exit and entrance of electromagnetic energy. A composite structure is also disclosed which, for given layers, has adjacent fibers such as glass 12 and carbon 14,16, so that when the layers are overlapped, glass areas overlap glass areas throughout the radial thickness of the composite tube to create "windows" for the entrance and exit of electromagnetic energy. In yet other embodiments, the drill collar 10 can be made of a metallic frame structure with a multiplicity of openings which are filled with a composite material. The metallic frame structure provides structural rigidity while the openings, filled with composite material which are attached to the metal structure, form a fluid-tight cohesive structure sufficient to withstand the rigors of drilling, while at the same time allow the measurements of the formation to be taken through the windows or by making use of sensors embedded in the windows. In another alternative composite structure, carbon fibers can be used if they are electrically insulated in the areas where electromagnetic energy is to enter and exit the structure. Another composite alternative is to alternate carbon and glass fibers in particular sequences or to use insulated carbon fibers to facilitate the operation of instruments which can be mounted in the structure whose operation could be negatively affected by conductivity in the wall in an azimuthal direction.

Abstract: The appts. (9) for read-out of the meter state from a specific measurement unit (1) is attached to the unit with a display (11). A code is transmitted to a memory in the reading appts. (9). If at a later time, the reading appts. is further connected to the same measurement unit the code remains in the memory, and the corresp. memory of the appts. receives the new meter state. On a specific day all the meter states of all available measurement units (1) are fed with the corresp. code. The fed-out data are sent complete to a calculating point, where the data are read-out. A data carrier is removed from the appts. (9) and sent, or the fed-out data are transmitted to the calculating point via a corresp. modem and a telephone line. At the calculating point, the incoming data are checked for accuracy, i.e. as to whether all measurement units installed for a specific user have the corresp. code and a meter state. If this is not the case, the reading is repeated.
