Patent EP-0603643-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MAULDIN DAVID F
IPC: B66B29/02
Filed: 1993-12-08
Abstract: An escalator is formed of a plurality of steps traveling in a continuous conveyor between a pair of spaced apart skirt plates. Each step has lateral safety boundaries attached to the side edges thereof. Spring inserts are positioned between the outermost ribs of the tread plate and the riser of the step to maintain the safety boundaries in contact at all times with the skirt plates. Thus, differences in the distance between the skirt plates and deviations of the travel path of the steps are equalized and the air gaps between the skirt plates and the side edges of the steps are closed at all times. The material from which the safety boundaries are made is selected to provide the lowest possible friction losses and to prevent scraping noises during operation. However, the safety boundaries will wear down before the skirt plates and worn out safety boundaries can be replaced without having to dismantle the corresponding step from the step conveyor.

Abstract: A static mixing nozzle (50) for use with a dispenser system to mix one or more liquids. The static mixing nozzle has a passage (60) with a plurality of baffles (66) arranged in a staggered and alternating pattern throughout the passage. A liquid passing through the static mixing nozzle will strike the plurality of baffles, causing turbulence which mixes the liquid. The baffles prevent laminar flow through the passage. Static mixing nozzles with different numbers of baffles may be used in the dispenser system to accommodate the different types of concentrates and syrups which may be used. The static mixing nozzle may be formed as part of the nozzle or as an insert for the nozzle. The insert is removable and may be formed in parts. The static mixing nozzle does not require any mechanical mixing and operates under standard operating pressures for dispenser systems.

Abstract: In the polymerization of olefins using a catalyst comprising an organoaluminum compound and a solid catalyst components containing titanium and/or vanadium; and magnesium in a vapor phase fluidized bed, the formation of sheet-like polymer and other abnormal conditions in the initial stage of the polymerization are avoided by means of previous drying of the reactor by feeding an organoaluminum compound prior to the feeding of seed polymer, the quantity of said organoaluminum compound being calculated by the following equation (I): 
 
           A=k·V       2/3          (I)           
 
 wherein A is the feed quantity (mol) of the organoaluminum compound, k is a coefficient (mol/m²) in the range from 0.15 to 4, and V is the volume (m³) of the whole system including gas circulation pipings.

Abstract: Nitrided stainless steel comprises austenitic stainless steel wherein a portion of the surface layer at least is composed of a nitrided hard layer which
     (A) contains substantially no crystalline chrome nitride;   (B) contains N atoms at 2 to 12% by weight in the base phase austenitic stainless steel phase of base phase.   
     Such nitrided stainless steel has excellent anti-corrosion properties and surface hardness. There is no dimensional change or surface roughness caused by deposition of crystalline chrome nitride, and so no final finishing process is required.

Abstract: A method and process for computer-controlled manufacture of three-dimensional objects involves dispensing a layer of a first material, such as a liquid, insoluble material onto a platform at predetermined locations corresponding to a cross-section of the object, which then hardens. A second medium, preferably water soluble, is then sprayed onto this layer to thereby encapsulate the hardened insoluble media. The uppermost surface of this encapsulant is planarized, if necessary, for example by way of a mill cutter, knife, roller or thermal bar, thus removing a portion of the encapsulant to expose the underlying insoluble material for new pattern deposition. The dispensing of the first and second materials, and the planarization, may be performed in a single pass by an integrated printhead. After the resulting planing residue is removed, another layer of liquid, insoluble medium is dispensed onto the planed surface. These steps are repeated, until the desired three-dimensional object, surrounded by a mold, is completed. At this point, the object is either heated or immersed in a solvent, thereby dissolving the mold and leaving the three-dimensional object intact; alternatively, the second material may remain in place to form a composite structure such as a printed circuit board. A method is also disclosed which converts a CAD data base representing a solid object into one representing a filled shell, reducing the amount of object material required.

Abstract: An injection timing device for an electronic fuel injection system can be provided wherein the actual position of the timer piston can be detected when the injection pump is operated for the first time, then the discrepancy between that actual position and the reference position is learned and after that, the timing control valve is controlled by incorporating this learned value in order to correct the actual position of the timer piston. This precludes the neccessity of a mechanical adjustment of the timer position sensor and the injection start timing can be accurately corrected.

Abstract: Driving machinery having a driving shaft (1) is coupled to driven machinery having a driven shaft (2) through a coupling arrangement (3) which permits the shafts to be non-aligned. To prevent persons and other articles touching the moving parts, there is a stationary safety means including a sleeve (5) having a concertina-like portion (5A) between a series of cylindrical portions (5B, 5C, 5D, 5E) of progressively decreasing diameter and a cylindrical portion (5H) of greater diameter having an internal flange (5M). Proceeding along the sleeve, the external diameters of the peaks of the ridges and the internal diameters of the bottoms of the troughs of the concertina-like portion (5A) at first progressively increase and then progressively decrease. At least one of the cylindrical portions (5B, 5C, 5D, 5E) may be cut off and the smallest of those remaining is clamped to a stationary guard tube (4) within which the driven shaft (2) rotates.
