Title: Raccord a joint metallique annulaire interchangeable
Inventor: GENOU PATRICK
IPC: F16L19/03
Filed: 1988-09-20
Abstract: Le raccord selon l'invention sert à assurer une connexion étanche entre deux éléments tubulaires disposés bout à 
bout respectivement munis de deux embouts tubulaires (12, 13), l'étanchéité étant alors obtenue par compression d'un joint 
annulaire (20) entre les faces radiales (12′, 13′) des deux embouts (12, 13). Les faces radiales du joint (20) et des embouts 
(12, 13) comprennent chacune une surface radiale coronale adjacente à la surface cylindrique du joint (20) et des embouts 
(12, 13) ainsi que, vers l'extérieur, une surface de révolution dont la directrice est un cercle et dont la génératrice s'étend 
obliquement par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du raccord. L'invention permet d'assurer une continuité de la surface cylin­
drique intérieure (17, 17′) du raccord, d'assurer un effet d'auto-centrage du joint (20) et d'obtenir une double barrière 
d'étanchéité.  
     Abstract 
     The connector according to the in­
vention is intended to provide for a 
sealed connection between two tubular 
elements arranged end to end and re­
spectively provided with two tubular 
connecting ends (12, 13), the sealing be­
ing obtained by compression of an annu­
lar gasket or ring (20) between the radial 
faces (12′, 13′) of the two ends (12, 13). 
The radial faces of the ring (22) and of 
the ends (12, 13) comprise each a coronal 
radial surface adjacent to the cylindrical surface of the ring (20) and of the ends (12, 13) as well as, outwardly, a revolution 
surface of which the directrix is a circle and of which the generatrix extends obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis 
of the connector. The invention also provides for a continuity of the internal cylindrical surface (17, 17;) of the connector, 
a self-centering effect on the ring (20) and a double sealing barrier.

Abstract: A semi-submersible vessel (24) for a floating oil production system comprises a superstructure (62) supported 
by legs 
(60) which are joined by a base (58) at their lower ends to form a rigid structure. The vessel is made from steel boxes 
welded together and square or rectangular in horizontal cross-section. Oil processing facilities on the vessel are 
connected 
by flexible risers (22) to the upper ends of rigid or semirigid risers (12) secured to a buoy (18) held against movement 
at a 
depth of some 50 m. The vessel is thus free to move relative to the risers (12) which are held at a level such that they 
are 
substantially unaffected by wind, wave and tidal movements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fuelling system comprising a fuelling arm composed of several pipe elements, which each are connected with one another through a joint having one degree of freedom, and which is connected to a supply line. The supply line is arranged inside a vertically opening enclosed space. The fuelling arm is liftable and lowerable to ground level by means of a lifting and lowering device. In order to assure a fuelling radius which is as large as possible, and on the other hand in order to be able to completely move the fuelling system during nonuse to an out of the way location, the lifting and lowering device includes a plate liftable to a position flush with respect to the ground, on which plate is supported a first joint pivotal about a vertical axis. The respective adjoining pipe elements are horizontally arranged, are angled at their ends and are each connected with one another by means of at least one vertical joint. The dimension of the plate equals at least the length of the longest pipe element. The fuelling arm can thus be collapsed above the plate and can be lowered together with the plate into the vertically enclosed space.

Abstract: A washing machine for containers, such as ampoules (1), bottles or the like, has a circumferential conveying apparatus (20) which feeds the containers to spraying and blow-out apparatuses (16). For holding the containers, the conveying apparatus has on one conveying wheel (21) radially projecting tongs (22), four of which are arranged on one carrier (30) in each case. The carriers (30) are arranged rotatably on the conveying wheel by means of shafts (31) so that the containers fed in for spraying and blowing out in an upright position can be turned. In order to be able to keep the containers at a distance which is as small and as even as possible and to avoid collisions during turning, the carriers (30) are also arranged so as to be radially displaceable on the conveying wheel (21). Guide rollers (44, 45), guided in guide grooves (51, 55, 56), displace the shafts bearing the carriers during rotation of the conveying wheel. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sealing apparatus has inflatable hallow body portions extending around a car opening to close off the space between an elevator shaft wall and the car opening of an elevator car in a draftsproof and weatherproof manner when stopping at a floor. After the car stops at a floor, a pressurized fluid medium is utilized to inflate the hollow body until it is pressed against the shaft wall. The hollow body of the sealing apparatus is ventilated to atmosphere or to a vacuum before the departure of the elevator car from the floor such that the hollow body retracts so as to assure the spacing which is necessary for the free travel of the elevator car in the shaft. The sealing apparatus is monitored for low and excess pressure conditions.

Abstract: This safety locking device for a flap cover of a base for telephone equipment ensures the electrical safety of the user by obliging him to disconnect the equipment from the telephone line in order to be able to open the flap cover. The equipment is connected to the telephone line by a connector having two plug-in parts one of which is a fixed socket in the base of the equipment. The safety locking device comprises a shutter (8) which slides in the base (1, 2) of the equipment in front of the opening (5) for access to the socket of the telephone line connector between a closing position in the course of which it clears the opening (5) and keeps the cover (8) of the flap closed, and an opening position in the course of which it obstructs the opening (5) and allows opening of the cover (3) of the flap.

Abstract: The invention relates to an AC contactor having an armature, which can be operated by a magnet system and is operatively connected to a contact support, which holds a moving contact part of the contact system and is loaded by the force of a return spring. The contact support is in this case provided with an additional mass and is operatively connected to the armature via a coupling spring, the additional mass being movable with respect to the contact support and an additionally provided intermediate part, to which the armature is coupled. The coupling spring, which on the one hand is supported on the contact support, can, on the other hand, rest against an angled end of the intermediate part which is pressed against the additional mass, the additional mass resting against a stop on the contact support or being spring loaded against the movement direction of the contact support, via a separate additional spring, against a stop on the contact support. Friction means, which influence free movement, engage on the additional mass such that a deceleration of the additional mass can be achieved in accordance with the friction characteristic. In consequence, the general sensitivity of a magnet system with uneven pole surfaces is considerably reduced with respect to the closing behaviour. This is particularly advantageous if a contactor can be used optimally at 50 and 60 Hz mains frequency.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for preparing a supported metallocene alumoxane catalyst for use in the slurry, gas or liquid phase polymerization of olefins. The invention particularly relates to the use of silica gel containing from about 10 to about 50 per cent by weight adsorbed water as the catalyst support material. It has been found that such silica gel may be safely added to an aluminum trialkyl solution to form by direct reaction with the adsorbed water content of the silica gel catalyst support material the alumoxane component of the catalyst system. An alumoxane coated silica gel is formed to which a metallocene may be added. The resulting material can either be used in this slurry state for slurry polymerization or can be used for liquid phase polymerization of olefins.
