Inventor: GREEN DENNIS H
IPC: C22B3/18
Filed: 1994-02-08
Abstract: A treatment system for removing metal ions from water. Contaminated water is first passed through a nanofiltration membrabe system (22a-22d) and then through one or more columns (36, 40) having ion-extracting materials therein. The nanofiltration membrane system (22a-22d) involves at least one and preferably multiple nanofiltration membrane units (22a-22d) which are capable of removing metal ions from water. To remove any residual metal ions from the permeate generated by the nanofiltration member system (22a-22d), the permeate is passed through at least one and preferably multiple columns (36, 40) filled with porous polymer beads having metal ion extracting agents therein (e.g. biomass materials). As a result, highly purified water is produced. When saturated with ions, each bead-containing column (36, 40) is successively cleaned with acid solutions.

Abstract: A process and related devices for conveying and storing movable goods in a controllable manner to or on defined storage locations are particularly suitable for creating and operating high-bay garages for motor vehicles. The technical conveyance principle is based on the use of lifts and at least one transverse conveyor. Four vertical drives (17) synchronised by means of a cardan shaft assembly (18) are arranged at the corners of the lift frameworks, which in the waiting position carry no pallets. A toothed gear (19) directly arranged on the driving shaft of the vertical drives engages a toothed rack (20) and thus moves the lift in the vertical direction.

Abstract: The present invention sorts microorganism populations from a mixture which contains more than one microorganism population. Microorganisms of different types vary in size, shape, and surface charge characteristics. These characteristics we believe contribute to the rate of migration for microorganisms under the influence of an electric field. Microorganisms of the same population (genus and species) will migrate similarly. By applying an electric field in a direction opposite the direction of fluid flow, separation is enhanced.

Abstract: The method involves a hollow cylindrical steel sleeve being mounted at one end of a cage and protruding beyond the end, its external diameter being equal to that of the tube. The cage, with radial protrusions on the inside of the sleeve and extending horizontally, is set down on a circular supporting platform fitting in the sleeve, the bottom end fo the latter hanging free and unsupported. The shuttering wall is fitted over the cage top and centred by the sleeve, resting at the bottom on a stationary support outside the platform, fresh concrete being then poured in continuously, and compacted by vibration from the underside. Rotary internal press tools distribute the concrete over the inside shuttering wall and compact it in the radial direction, moving continually upwards and smoothing it. The shuttering is lifted off, and after the concrete has set the tube is lifted from the platform and deposited in the horizontal position.

Abstract: A control unit (1) of a measuring apparatus controls a sound driving circuit (11) to make a sounding unit (10) generate pitch sounds at a predetermined pace for three minutes. After generation of the pitch sounds for three minutes, a heart rate sensor (8) measures a heart rate of an exerciser who has executed an exercise in synchronism with the generated pitch sounds, and the measured heart rate is stored in RAM 3. Further, the control unit (1) controls the sounding unit (10) to generate pitch sounds at a different pace for another three minutes, and a heart rate of the exerciser is measured and stored similarly. Based on the measured heart rates and personal data such as an age of the exerciser input through a key input unit (12), a level of objective physical strength of the exerciser is calculated and displayed on a display device (5). In other words, physical strength of the exerciser is objectively evaluated based on physical data such as a heart rate that varies when the exerciser takes the exercise.

Abstract: For cooling a plurality of device modules (1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B) mounted in an enclosure (1), a redundant air moving system (13, 15) is coupled to the air duct system (5c, 7c, 9c) of the enclosure (1). The redundant air moving system (13, 15) has two, three, or more air movers. If one air mover fails, the remaining air mover(s) still provide the required air volume rate for adequate cooling. To make the air movers (13, 15) redundant, they are coupled in parallel to a common air plenum (11a) in the air duct system (5c, 7c, 9c) from which ducting to all devices to be cooled is provided. In case of an air mover failure, a flapper door (15d) is built into the exhaust path (15c) of the air mover (15). The flapper door (15d) is pendulously pivoted in the exhaust path (15c). It is held open by exhaust air flow and is closed by gravity upon cessation of exhaust air flow and held closed by reverse air pressure for the purpose of preventing reverse air flow in the exhaust path (15c), which would disrupt the air pressure in the air plenum (11a) and consequently also in the air duct system (5c, 7c, 9c). The air mover modules (13, 15) are of exterior configuration and approximate dimension corresponding to the device modules (1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B), providing ease of insertion and removal with respect to the enclosure (1), without tools. An air mover (13, 15) can be replaced while the cooling system and the system comprising the devices to be cooled continue to function.
