Patent EP-0199547-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KINSEY ROBERT
IPC: B66F17/00
Filed: 1986-04-17
Abstract: In lifting platform apparatus, an extensible boom (B) carrying a platform at its outer end is pivotally mounted at its inner end on rotatable support structure (10). Hydraulic elevating and extending rams effect elevation and extension of the boom. The elevating ram (14) acts at its bottom end on the support structure through a pivot arm (20) which is seated at its free end on a spring pack (24). The coupling (18) of the ram to the pivot arm lies substantiate in the plane of the pivot axes (at 22 and 12) of the arm and the boom, whereby the load on the spring pack is substantially independent of the boom elevation for a constant overturning moment of the boom. Hydraulic diverter valves (24), actuated bythe pivot arm (20) when it is deflected against the spring pack, operate to divert fluid flows from the elevating and/or extending rams upon a predetermined overturning moment being exceeded whilst the boom is being lowered and/or extended.

Abstract: An improved motionless mixer, referred to herein as an acceleration valve, for dissolving gases in liquids is disclosed. The valve incorporates a helical mixing element (1) in which the pitch of the blade or vane of the helical mixing element (1) decreases continuously along the length of the mixing element (1). The linear velocity of the flowing liquid is thereby subjected to increasing angular acceleration resulting in centrifugal force against the retaining walls (3). This additional pressure generated on the liquid increases the amount of gas that may be dissolved in the liquid.

Abstract: This invention relates to a cardiac pacemaker circuit in which a stimulating electrode (11) is embedded in a patient's atrium or ventricle and a reference electrode (13) positioned outside the heart or on the same lead within the heart. Stimulus pulses are applied across the two electrodes (11, 13), these replacing the evoked pulses. On termination of the stimulus pulse the amount of charge stored between the two electrodes (11, 13) is monitored and a pulse applied to the stimulating electrode (11) to reduce this charge to a level at which the intrinsic pulses of the evoked heart response can be monitored. The evoked heart response can then be used for diagnosis whilst the pacemaker circuit is in operation. If the stored charge were not reduced then the charge would mask the intrinsic pulses and the pacemaker would have to be switched off before these could be monitored for diagnosis.

Abstract: A computer system architecture implementing multiple central processing units, each including a split instruc­tion and operand cache, and that provides for the manage­ment of multiple copies (line pairs) of a memory line through the use of a line pair state is described. System­atic managment of memory lines when transferred with respect to instruction and operand data cache memories allows the integrity of the system to be maintained at all times. The split cache architecture management determines whether a memory line having a first predetermined system address is present within both the instruction and operand cache memories or will be upon move-in of a memory line. Address tag line pair state information is maintained to allow determinations of whether and where the respective memory line pair members reside. The architecture imple­ments the management of the line pairs on each transfer of a memory line to any of the split caches of the system. A line pair is allowed to exist whenever the same memory line exists in the same relative location in each of the in­struction and operand cache buffers of a single central processor. The architecture further includes a data path selector for transferring operand data to either the instruction or operand data cache buffers, or both, depend­ing on whether the operand buffer destination is a memory line that is a member of a line pair.

Title: Solder finishing integrated circuit package leads
Inventor: WOOD RICHARD C
IPC: H01R43/02
Filed: 1987-06-23
Abstract: A new method for solder finishing the leads of an integrated circuit package (22) such as a DIP having two parallel rows of leads along the sides of the package. The method contemplates establishing two vertical columns (56,58) of falling molten solder and spacing the columns apart a distance substantially the width of the package. The package (22) is passed between the vertical columns (56,58) of falling molten solder immersing the two parallel rows of leads along the sides of the package in the respective columns of molten soder, washing the leads and depositing a finishing layer of solder over the surfaces of the leads. The method further contemplates directing hot nonreacting gas over the leads of the package as the package passes from the columns thereby eliminating excess solder and bridging of solder between the leads. A monorail track system and a new solder bridge for impementing the method are described. The invention may be applied for column fluxing as well as for other column liquid treatments.

Inventor: RIGAS CONSTANTINOS
IPC: B28D1/00
Filed: 1987-05-12
Abstract: This invention aims to the production of new products from decorative rocks, that will be free from two serious disadvantages of the natural products, the great specific weight and the low flexural strength, also much improving the economical result of the production, because the rendering of the marble blocks-granite blocks is over the double. 
     The new products will be large slabs or also thin (5- 7 mm) tiles (module marble and module granite), that will be covered and reinforced on one face with substances giving them increased strengths, a decreased water absorption and a safe anchorage to the building elements. 
     More particularly, this invention solves mainly the problems of cutting of the decorative rocks (marbles *  and granites**) into very thin slabs (5- 7 mm). The method of this invention has nothing common which that used to the produc- tionof thin tiles, measuring 15 x 30 x 0.7 cm .as it refers to the possibility of production of large and thin slabs (e.g. 155 x 320 x 0.5 cm). 
       *  marbles are crystalline or granular compact rocks, consisting of minerals with ahardness of 3-4 of the Mosh scale (calaite, dolomite, serpentine), that can be cut, grid and polished, used as decorative and building materials. 
     * * granites are phanerocrystalline compact rocks, consisting of minerals with hardness 6-7 of the Mosh scale (quartz, feldspar, feld- spathodis) that can be cut, grid and polished, used as decorative and building materials. 
     Furthermore, this invention solves the problem of the reinforcement of slabs with resin glass-fibers or also resin glass-clothes, which, as they are hydrophobe materials, the slabs should be completely free from dampness. 
     The additional increase of the inflexibility of the slabs was achieved by the use of enlarging materials (e.g. polyurethane). The self-anchorage of the slabs is realized by depositing of gravel to the still fresh surface of the resin glass-cloth. 
     The reinforced slabs produced within the frame of this invention are much more lighter (16-20 kg/m 2 ), in comparison with the natural slabs 2 cm thick (55 kg/m 2 ) and they can be much longer without being broken. 
     Finally it should be noted that each square meter of reinforced slabs is charged totally with the sum of US $ 6.00 (prices of 1986), which sum is covered by the over than the double rendering (from 1 m 3  of marble-block or granite-block the theoretical production is 40 m 2  of slabs, 2 cm thick or more than 83.3 m 2  of reinforced slabs 0.5 ÷ 0.7 cm thick).

Abstract: A gas turbine engine blade has an abrasive mate­rial tip with a fused superalloy matrix and evenly dis­tributed ceramic particulate. The matrix will have a de­sirable metallurgical structure characterized by fine dendrites and remnants of the original powder metal structure from which it was made. Due to the fusion of the tip, the peripheral edge will tend to be curved. To lessen the effect of thermal strains on such an abrasive tip, a sheath of a superalloy, such as a portion of the turbine blade substrate, extends along the side of the abrasive. The sheath may be present only in the thicker leading edge part of the blade airfoil.

Abstract: A method for forming a thermoplastic laminate having a desired laminate thickness is disclosed. Layers of composite material using precured or partially precured thermoplastic resin laminate layers are layed-up on a forming tool. A relatively constant, uniform pressure is applied to the layers to produce a preconsolidated laminate having a thickness approximately equal to the ultimate desired laminate thickness. The laminate layers are free to slide relative to one another during debulking because they are either cured or partially cured. Thus, wrinkles are avoided. The debulked laminae are then consolidated in a conventional autoclave under elevated temperature and pressure.
