IPC: F24H7/04
Filed: 1974-07-11
Abstract: An electric storage heater which also incorporates a fan (4) in the base which draws cold air in through a bottom front grille (10) and blows warm air out through another grille (8) just above, has a grid (5, 12) which acts as a self regulator, and which allows part of the air from the fan to pass through and upwards to circulate through the channel (3) between the heat storage blocks (1) and then out through the upper grille (8) and allows the remainder of the air from the fan to travel directly forwards and out of the upper grille (8). Additionaly, the horizontal plate (6) separating the space behind the two front grills into two chambers can be set to a slope to give optimum results over a range of temperature.

Title: Proportional regulator in industrial process - uses compensating element emitting linear signal which is function of setting value
Inventor: FLACHER MICHEL
IPC: G05B11/38
Filed: 1976-03-10
Abstract: The proportional regulator is of the type having at least a proportional element. It has three amplifiers (11, 16, 25). The proportional element emits an output signal which, at least inside a certain band, is proportional to a difference. This difference is between the real value of the magnitude to be regulated and the setting to be impared upon it. The regulator has a compensation element which is designed to emit an auxiliary signal. This signal is added to that of the proportional element so as to cancel or reduce the static difference. The compensating element emits an auxiliary signal which is linear function of the setting or desired value.

Title: Oil-water emulsion treatment - in hot air evaporator tower evaporating water and using oil for hot air generation
Inventor: THOMAS GEORGES
IPC: B01D1/14
Filed: 1976-04-28
Abstract: The disposal of spent oil/water emulsions, e.g. cutting fluids used in machine tools of mechanical engineering works, is based on treating a tricking film of the emulsion by hot air. The hot air stream is applied at 80-250 degrees C in such a way that the water content of the emulsion is evapd. The recovered oil is used as the heat source for the hot air generation. Not soluble oils are removed before the drying process by decantation. The operating costs of this process are much lower than those of any other known system. It eliminates effectively any pollution of the environment.

Title: Detection of telephone circuit loop state - employing Hall effect cell in magnetic circuit of detector coils
Inventor: KEVORKIAN KEVORK
IPC: H04M3/22
Filed: 1976-07-01
Abstract: In a telephone subscribers line equipment the state of the loop is sensed by a Hall effect cell which is inserted into the magnetic circuits of detector windings. This arrangement enables the detector circuit to be decoupled from the line circuit. Two detector coils are each connected to the connecting wires between the subscribers equipment and telephone line terminals. A Hall effect cell is mounted in a gap in the magnetic circuit coupling two detector coils. A threshold level circuit output gives the loop state. This threshold circuit gives a high ratio between switch on a switch off states of the magnetic field.

Title: Mercerising fabric stretching - uses rollers with alternating ridges and projections to tension material passing through the caustic soda
IPC: D06B7/08
Filed: 1976-12-22
Abstract: In passing knitted or woven materials through a caustic soda lye for mercerising, the fabric has to be stretched from the sides. The stretching effect is imparted by a number of cylindrical rolers with their surfaces fitted with projections and riges. These are arranged in an alternating pattern, to engage in gaps, so that the fabric passing through the assembly is forced to follow a wandering path round the rollers. The design ensures that an even and consistent tension is applied across the fabric without damaging the fabric structure.
