Filed: 1989-05-30
Granted: 1994-08-03
Abstract: A process for pressing in which the mold is advanced by gravity or auxiliary actuation means (10). The pressing is actuated by directing liquid flow of a positive-displacement pump (16) to a hydraulic actuating means (10). The pump (16) is connected to a flywheel (22). The liquid flow is directed by closing a first valve means (20). A hydraulic circuit comprises a distribution valve unit (36, 38) connected with the delivery line (19). A plurality of pressure lines (23, 40) are connected with the distribution valve unit (36, 38). A hydraulic pressing apparatus, operates with an open hydraulic circuit (31, 32, 33, 18, 16, 19, 23, 10, 15). The apparatus comprises a flywheel (22) for accumulating kinetic energy, first valve means (20) to discharge the flow of the pump (16) to the tank (31).  The invention allows energy savings, high speed and reliability. <IMAGE>

Title: Active noise reduction system
Inventor: LANGBERG EDWIN
IPC: A61B7/04
Filed: 1989-06-22
Granted: 1997-01-22
Abstract: Improvement in active noise reduction based on a negative feedback electro-acoustical system which consists of an Electronic Earplug seated in the concha fossa combining active and passive noise reduction in the quiet zone at the ear, a bilateral transducer circuit which drives a speaker as an acoustical velocity source, a shunt feedback control filter network which improves stability and increases noise reduction, and a combined input noise-filter/feedback system. A typical application is in a noisy environment for hearing protection and for improved communication capability, e.g., in vehicular communication, telephone, intercom, hearing aids, and stethoscopes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for safe disposal of hypodermic syringes, needles and other small, contaminated instruments such as, for example, scalpel blades, stitch cutters etc. (commonly referred to as "sharps"). The apparatus firstly comprises a collection container (30) having a primary lid (31) which is movable between an open position and a closed position, and is releasably latched in the closed position. The latch mechanism (34) is adapted to be released when the container is brought into cooperation with a destructor apparatus (10). The destructor apparatus comprises a disposal receptacle (55) adapted to receive the container and unlatch the lid, and a destructor means (20, 13, 14) adapted to generally comminute the materials deposited therein. The destructor apparatus has an inlet (15) and an outlet (16), a plurality of rotating blades (20) which cooperate with two cutting plates (13, 14) which are arranged to define a flow path for the materials between the inlet and the outlet. The cutting blades and cutting plates cooperate to comminute the material by impact and cutting action. The present invention provides a convenient means of disposing of sharps generally without risk to the person handling the sharps.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting formation of unburned substances in incinerating refuse is practiced with use of an incinerator wherein a peripheral wall defining a combustion chamber is provided with a nozzle for injecting at least one mixing fluid selected from the group consisting of air, water, water vapor, inert gas and combustion exhaust gas into the combustion chamber and producing a swirling stream of the fluid within the chamber. When the refuse is incinerated, the mixing fluid is injected into the combustion chamber from the nozzle, whereby the flame and unburned substances produced within the chamber are efficiently mixed with an excessive portion of air supplied to the chamber and remaining therein to ensure promoted complete combustion. <IMAGE>

The pulverulent, amorphous, water-containing sodium silicate is first ground, preferably to grain sizes of 1 to 50  mu m, before it is introduced into a rotary kiln in an inclined arrangement and treated therein with flue gas in countercurrent at temperatures of more than 500 to 850 DEG C, to form crystalline sodium silicate. The sodium silicate emerging from the rotary kiln is first comminuted to grain sizes of 0.1 to 12 mm and finally ground to grain sizes of 2 to 400  mu m.
