Abstract: The invention describes a process for the production of metal powders from a molten metal, the molten metal being dispensed as a jet (12) of metal from a discharge nozzle (10) and the jet (12) of metal being acted upon in an atomisation zone (22) downstream of the discharge nozzle (10) by a fluid (20) passed through a nozzle arrangement (18), the jet (12) of metal thereby being atomised to give the metal powder. In order to obtain a very fine grain spectrum of the metal powder in this process, it is proposed that the jet (12) of metal should flow through the electromagnetic field (H) of an electromagnetic field arrangement (14) in the region between the discharge nozzle (10) and the atomisation zone (22), the jet (12) of metal being altered in its cross section (q), i.e. constricted, by the magnetic field (H).

Abstract: In a process for manufacturing foundry moulds from free-flowing moulding material, in particular foundry sand, which is contained in a filling container and is moved by means of the latter into a moulding station and there transferred into the moulding box, good quality of the mould, particularly in the region close to the pattern, is achieved by virtue of the fact that at least some of the moulding material in the filling container is screened prior to or during the transfer to the moulding box and is transferred to the moulding box as undersize while the remaining, unclassified quantity is used for filling up the moulding box. A device for carrying out the process is distinguished by the fact that the filling container has a screen which holds back the moulding material and a device for setting the moulding material in motion and that the screen can be moved into a position for transfer of the screening residue to the moulding box.

Abstract: A cylindrical filter is formed from a sheet of filter material which includes two connected layers of filter media. Opposed edges of the sheet are joined to form the cylinder by separating the media adjacent the edges and then sealing together the first of the separated layers followed by sealing the second separated layers with the first separated layers. The two seals are spaced inwardly of the edges and are spaced from one another. In this way, failure of one seal does not result in failure of the cylindrical filter.

Inventor: BLACK ARTHUR GEIGER
IPC: H02M7/06
Filed: 1991-03-20
Abstract: This invention provides a means for suppressing radiated electromagnetic radiation in high current AC/DC power supplies. This radiation is the result of rectifier diode transient noise which is propagated through the electrical network of the power supply. The transient noise is propagated through the electrical and mechanical connections of the diodes to the transformer secondary. These connections have stray impedance which allows high frequency noise to be propagated through them. The stray impedances can be modulated to suppress the high frequency noise propagation without adding discrete inductor or capacitor elements to the electrical network. The modulation of the stray impedances is accomplished by adjusting the current sharing between rectifier diodes. This is accomplished by splitting the parallel connection between rectifier diodes, and making the connection of the diodes to the transformer secondary at various points along the secondary. The separate impedance of both the transformer and the individual connections will modulate the existing stray impedance to suppress the radiated electromagnetic noise.

Abstract: A distributed network contains a plurality of interconnected nodes 10, each node including a processor 16 and data storage apparatus 26. A plurality of key-index data identifiers are distributed among the nodes, with each node including a tree data structure in non-volatile storage defining locations of the key-index data identifiers. The tree data structure includes a ROOT data structure 31 for the top level of the tree, comprising two lists, "NEW ROOT" and "OLD ROOT", each comprised of an ordered array of boundaries assigned to the nodes. The tree data structure is balanced by determining when a first node contains an excess of key-index data identifiers, and moving the excess of key-index data identifiers to a second node. The first node/second node boundary value in "NEW ROOT" of the ROOT data structure is updated to record the movement of the data file identifiers, so that in the event of a malfunction of one of the nodes, a record exists in both of the nodes of both an updated and non-updated ROOT data structure to enable data recovery.

Abstract: 5n7 A counter cell includes a latch circuit, control circuit, and a pull-up circuit. The latch circuit is formed of a first clocked half-latch (32), a second clocked half-latch (34) and an inverter (INV1) for storing a binary output signal. The first clocked half-latch (32) is responsive to a first clock phase signal for transferring the binary output signal from its input to its output. The second clocked half-latch (34) is responsive to a second clock phase signal for transferring binary output signal from its input to its output. The control circuit is responsive to an input complement signal for selectively passing the first clock phase signal to the first clocked half-latch so as to permit toggling the state of the binary output signal. The pull-up circuit is responsive to the binary output signal and the input complement signal for generating an output complement signal. The logic value of the output complement signal is equal to the logic value of the input complement signal only when a binary output signal is at a high logic level. The logic value of the output complement signal is maintained at a high logic level when the binary output signal is at a low logic level. Any number of these counter cells can be arranged to form an N-bit counter circuit.
