Title: Brush cutting blade
IPC: A01G23/08
Filed: 1988-07-14
Abstract: A brush cutting blade (10) has a curved slitter 
type/non-raker type primary cutting tooth (16), and a 
preceding appendage (18) forming a combination depth 
gauge and small stem slitter. The primary tooth (16) 
terminates over the blade body, with the cutting edge 
(22) provided by that curved portion of the tooth 
between its most lateral point (24) and the point (28) 
of termination over the blade body. The cutting edge 
(22) is curved but outwardly directed in a slitter 
configuration throughout its length. The lateral point 
of the cutting edge determines the kerf width to 
prevent binding. The slitter cutting edge (40) of the 
appendage (18) is hook shaped to cut small willowy-­
type stems and the appendage has an upper inclined 
guide edge (38) that guides larger rigid-type stems to 
the primary cutting tooth (16). The uppermost point 
(36) of this guide edge of the appendage provides a 
depth gauge for the primary cutting tooth.

Title: Magnetic support with permanent magnets for absorption of the radial bearing stresses
IPC: D01H4/12
Filed: 1989-03-07
Abstract: A magnetic bearing with permanent magnets for absorption of the radial bearing stresses and with a stabiliser is specified for a rotor, which stabiliser holds the rotor in a position relative to the stator such that it does not make contact. Mounted on the stator for this purpose there are electric coils which interact with parts which can be magnetised but are fitted on the rotor. In order to render the bearing as independent as possible from the spatial orientation of the rotor axis and from deformation of the housing, in the region of the rotor centre of gravity (Figure 1, reference symbol 4) there is arranged a centre of gravity bearing (5) with a comparatively high radial stiffness and, at another point of the rotor 1, a stabilisation bearing (7) having a low radial stiffness in comparison with the centre of gravity bearing. The centre of gravity bearing (5) supports the majority of the rotor weight, the stabilisation bearing (7) essentially takes over the static and dynamic stabilisation of the complete system. <IMAGE>

Title: Phenol formaldehyde adhesive for bonding wood pieces of high moisture content and composite board and veneers bonded with such adhesive
IPC: C09J161/04
Filed: 1989-03-08
Abstract: Disclosed is an improved phenol formaldehyde (PF) resin that 
does not require fillers or extenders and is capable of bonding 
wafers or veneers having a moisture content of 10% or above. 
In the case of veneers exceptional results are obtained when 
the permeability of the veneer is increased by incising.  
     The adhesive compositon is prepared by mixing 
together a caustic solution of a high molecular weight PF resin, 
a dispersion of PF resin which is characterised in that it can 
swell in aqueous caustic medium but not go into solution, and 
a chemical which is capable of reacting with resins in both 
the continuous and the disperse phase, such as alkylene 
carbonates or phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (PRF) resins. 
Optionally, a component may be used such as borax which is 
capable of complexing with resins in the continuous and the 
disperse phase. The disperse phase is made by converting a 
solution of a PF resin into a fine particle size particulate 
form by precipitation, spray drying or freeze drying and 
partially cross-linking the resin during or subsequent to the 
formation of the fine particle size dispersion. The PF resin 
is partially cross-linked by (a) heat, by (b) acid catalysis, 
or by (c) a reaction with cross-linking chemicals such as cyclic 
carbonates or epoxy compounds or by a combination of (a) (b) 
and (c). 
 
  
     The disperse phase may be made from a PF resin or 
from a resin in which some of the phenol has been replaced by 
other phenolic chemicals such as resorcinol, catechol, or 
kraft lignin. The chemical capable of reacting with resins 
in the continuous and the disperse phase may be a cyclic 
carbonate or a phenol resorcinol resin.  
     Also disclosed is a wood product produced from 
veneers having moisture contents at 10% or above and incised 
to improve their permeability to gases and liquids.

Abstract: A rotary actuator for positioning magnetic heads in a disk 
drive, comprising a stator assembly and a rotor assembly. 
An arm assembly (9, 10) having magnetic heads (11) is fixed 
to the rotor assembly (4, 5, 9), which rotates back and forth 
within a limited angle range around a fixed axis (5) of the 
rotary actuator due to the forces between plural magnets (6,

(2, 3). Two flat coils (2, 3) are arranged on a arcuate inner 
surface (1s) of the stator such that two adjacent vertical 
parallel portions (2a, 3a) thereof closely contact with each 
other. The two flat coils (2, 3) have an electrical connection 
with a drive source such that the currents through the two 
adjacently parallel portions (2a, 3a) flow in the same di­
rection. Three permanent magnets (6, 7, 8) are disposed on 
the rotor surface, the central magnet (7) having a greater 
lateral width than that of other two side magnets (6, 8), 
and a polarity of the central magnet (7) is opposite to that 
of other magnets (6, 8). In another embodiment, each of flat 
coils (2, 3) comprises an inner coil (2B, 3B) and an outer 
coil (2A, 3A) resulting in enhancing the torque of the rotary 
actuator. Several modifications of coil and permanent magnet 
arrangement, and other related improvements in the structure 
thereof are also disclosed.

IPC: G01M99/00
Filed: 1989-04-05
Abstract: A test system for caissons, piles and the like provides an improved way of testing the load bearing capabilities of such inground foundation elements. The test method involves supporting an inertial mass e.g. of concrete rings (30) on the upper end of a columnar foundation element (10) that is installed in the ground and generating in a chamber defined between the underside of the inertial mass and the upper end of the foundation element over a limited duration a propellant gas pressure sufficient to accelerate the inertial mass upwards away from the upper end of the foundation element and at the same time to produce a downwards reaction force of a predetermined desired magnitude on the element. The rate of increase of fluid pressure is controlled such that thereaction force does not damage the foundation element. The magnitude of the downwards force and the response of the foundation element are measured by suitable instrumentation.

Filed: 1990-10-19
Abstract: The drum (5) is at the station of wrapping and extraction of a coil of material wound on the segments (16) and bounded by the radial arms (24 and 21). Once the wrapping film has been placed about the coil of material and the arms (24 and 21), the cross-piece (17) is advanced so that the arms (21) are overturned backward and can be extracted from the front inner edge of the wrapping. Next, the pushers (28) move the wrapped coil of material by pressing against the rear flank of the wrapping between the arms (24). The latter pivot towards the front against the bias of the springs (26) so that their outer ends also pass under the inside edge of the rear flank of the wrapping. When the jack (19) returns the cross-piece (17) to its starting position, the arms (21) are righted by the action of the ramps (23). This device permits choosing the inside diameter of the coils of material at will, without being hindered by the presence of the radial arms (21).
