Title: Method for producing directly reduced, desulfurized iron
Inventor: ROTH JEAN-LUC
IPC: C21B13/10
Filed: 1999-11-04
Granted: 2002-06-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing directly reduced, desulfurized iron in a multiple-hearth furnace which comprises two zones arranged one above the other and each having several hearths. Iron ore is reacted with a reducing agent in a first zone of the multiple-hearth furnace at a temperature ranging from 800° C. to 1100° C. to obtain metallic iron. In addition, the gases are desulfurized using desulphurizing agents, whereby the directly reduced iron is discharged from the multiple-hearth furnace and the desulfurized gases are guided into a second zone where the iron ore is preheated to a temperature ranging from 600° C. to 800° C.

Granted: 1994-10-20
Abstract: A footboard of a skateboard is with respect to a respective reference plane which at riding straight (= x plane) is parallel to the riding path (= the ground), and at turning (= x'' plane) is with respect to the direction of riding slanted to one or the other side, is rhythmically swung around a longitudinal axis (O) of swinging lying in suspensions (4, 5) of the skateboard. The amplitude (A) and the frequency of swinging are mutually coordinated in a manner that swinging does not result in such meandering of the skateboard, which was felt inconvenient. To a socket shaft housing (8) of a suspension (4, 5) of the skateboard, said housing encasing a roller shaft (11), there is to each end thereof attached a gearing (9, 10), the gearings designed mirror-symmetrically. The gearing (9, 10) is composed of an essentially three-part housing assembly, which comprises a mounting casing (13), an upright intermediate wall (16) and a mounting cover (17), as well as of a train-type gearing composed of a toothed rack (19) as a driving constituent and a gear (25) bound to the roller shaft (11), as a driven constituent. In addition to the roller shaft (11) which passes through, two further, inner shafts (14, 15) constitute said gearing, the lastmentioned shafts each supporting two gears (20, 21; 23, 24), the first one (20) thereof mating the toothed rack (19) and the last one (24) mating the gear (25) driven. The second one (21) of the gears is indirectly connected to the respective shaft (14) by means of an overrunning clutch (22), and shaft (14) is by means of a suitably pre-stressed helical torsion-spring (28), which encompasses the shaft (14), rotationally-elastically bound to the stationary mounting casing (13) of the gearing.

Title: Enzymatic neutralization of heparin
Inventor: ZIMMERMANN JOSEPH J
IPC: C12Q1/34
Filed: 1992-04-03
Granted: 1995-04-13
Abstract: A heparinase derived from Flavobacterium heparinum which meets all requirements for a clinical reagent that can eliminate heparin interference of normal blood function has been developed. The heparinase, derived from Flavobacterium heparinum, is free of a component that inhibits coagulation wherein the anticoagulant component does not bind, and the heparinase does bind, to a polysulfated resin having a pH of 7.0 and a conductivity between 3 and 12 mmhos. It is stable under normal manufacturing, shipping and clinical storage conditions for at least one year. The heparinase in useful in vitro to eliminate the interference in hematological assays due to the presence of heparin. The heparinase is also useful for the in vivo neutralization of heparin during surgical procedures. Advantages of this enzyme are that it achieves neutralization faster and more completely than previously available enzymes and is stable for long periods of time.
