Abstract: Can bodies (4) are carried by a conveyor (2) through an inspection station (A). Bodies rejected by the inspection are pushed off the conveyor by an ejector (10) at a station downstream of the inspection station. The operation of the ejector is co-ordinated with the inspection by monitoring the movement of the reject cans between the inspection station and the ejection station. This is done by a Doppler-effect device (12) which can measure displacements of the can bodies independently of the movement of the conveyor track. In this way slippage of the can bodies on the conveyor track, a phenomenon occurring particularly at higher conveyor speeds, can be prevented from disturbing the coordination of the inspection and ejection stages.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of further treatment of a process stream obtained by hydrotreating a feedstream containing at least one C 5  plus paraffinic hydrocarbon and at least one olefinic hydrocarbon having the same number of carbon atoms. 
     The stream from the hydrotreating zone is passed to a stripping column 6 to remove light ends 7. A liquid retention volume is provided at the base of column 6 and substantially all the liquid from a level 8, just above the liquid retention volume is passed to reactor 19 where it is subjected to further catalytic hydrogenation. The effluent from reactor 19 is recycled to the liquid retention volume, from which a bottoms stream is removed through line 10. The bottoms stream, having a greatly reduced content of olefinic hydrocarbon, is suitable for separation into its components in absorptive separation zone 13 containing a shape-specific olefin-sensitive absorbent. 
     The method is particularly suitable for separating n-paraffins from i-paraffins in hydrocarbons boiling in the naphtha and kerosene ranges.

Abstract: Myocardial electrical stability is assessed based on the derivation of an alternating ECG morphology index from a series of heartbeats. The ECG electrical signal waveform is digitized at a plurality of sample points for each of the series of beats. Sample point matrices from the digitized ECG signals are constructed and the alternating energy at each of the sample points for the series of beats is computed. The alternating energy over the entire set of sample points is summed to generate the total alternating energy. This total alternating energy is normalized wtih respect to the energy of the average waveform, the normalized value being the alternating ECG morphology index. Animal studies indicate a high negative correlation between cardiac electrical stability and the alternating ECG morphology index.

Inventor: BERGER JEAN-LUC
IPC: H04N5/374
Filed: 1987-12-11
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un circuit de lecture d'un dispositif photosensible à transfert de ligne. Lorsque la capacité des colonnes conductrices (3) du dispositif est élevée par rapport à celle des éléments photosensibles (P) et du registre de lecture (4), on utilise un circuit de lecture qui comporte pour chaque colonne conductrice (3), plusieurs capacités de stockage des charges (C1, C2, C3), séparées par un transistor MOS (T1, T2, T3, T4). Ces transistors MOS fonctionnent en saturation et assurent le passage des charges-signal provenant de chaque colonne conductrice d'une capacité à la suivante jusqu'au registre de lecture. Les capacités de stockage ont des valeurs décroissantes lorsqu'on se rapproche du registre de lecture. Le transfert des charges-signal s'accompagne du transfert de quantités de charges de polarisation (Qo, Q1, Q2, Q3) qui ont des valeurs décroissantes lorsqu'on se rapproche du registre. Une fois les transferts effectués, ces quantités de charges de polarisation sont renvoyées vers leur capacité d'origine. Application à la radiologie.

Abstract: The device for transferring granular dry material into a pneumatic feedpipe (32), for example a concrete spraying machine, consists of a material-feeding hopper (4) having a blocking slide valve (6) which can be actuated by a pneumatic working cylinder (8). Arranged one behind the other underneath the blocking valve (6) are two tube sections (16 and 22) which are each subjected to the action of a tube-squeezing device (34 and 38 respectively), between which the tube sections (16 and 22) form a sluice chamber (44) which is additionally provided with a blowing-air connection (62). The blocking valve (6) and the upper tube-squeezing device (34) form a prechamber (42). When the upper tube-squeezing device (34) is closed and the blocking valve (6) is open, the prechamber (42) is filled by free fall from the feeding hopper (4). The sluice chamber (44) can at the same time be discharged into the pneumatic pipe (32) by opening the tube-squeezing device (38). The top (6) and bottom (38) blocking elements then close again and the contents of the prechamber (42) are discharged into the sluice chamber (44) by opening the upper tube-squeezing device (34). The tube-squeezing devices (34 and 38) work against an empty tube. The only blocking elements in contact with the material is the blocking valve (6). Otherwise, the device has no sealing parts which are subject to wear. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An article, which includes a refastenable adhesive tape fastening system, comprises an adhesive tape tab (40) which has a peel force value of at least about 11.7 N, and a substrate layer (50) which is composed of a nonwoven synthetic polymer material. The substrate layer (50) has a matte finish, and has a tensile load capacity which is substantially unable to prevent tearing thereof when the tape tab (40) is peeled from adhesive contact with the substrate layer (50). A reinforcement layer (18) has a first major surface (18a) bonded to the substrate layer (50) and has a second major surface (18b) which is appointed for adhesive bonding with the adhesive tape tab (40). The reinforcement layer (18) also has a matte finish and a yield tensile strength of at least about 15 MPa. The reinforcement layer (18) and substrate layer (50) thereby form a composite, reinforced substrate (56) having a composite tensile load capacity capable of withstanding the peeling removal of the adhesive tape tab (40) substantially without tearing.

Abstract: The closing force of a door closer (1, 2) can be adjusted in modern versions, so that it can be matched to the particular prevailing conditions, especially the size or weight of the door to be closed. But an adjustment of the closing force presupposes that it can be measured. For varying the closing force, normally a closing spring (9) (helical compression spring) is tensioned to a greater or lesser extent. This is achieved by means of an adjusting mechanism (12) which can include a spring plate (11), against which one end of the closing spring (9) is pressed. Preferably, a transmitter (20), especially a permanent magnet, is now attached to this spring plate (11). Its position relative to a fixed point or a fixed surface of the door-closer housing (3, 4) changes with a variation of the spring force and therefore also of the closing force of the door closer (1, 2). This position of the transmitter (20) can be detected contactlessly from outside, specifically by means of an indicator (6) which, according to the invention, is removable and can therefore be used with different door closers at least of the same type. The transmitter (20) acts on the indicator element (40) of an indicator member (36) of this indicator (6), and its respective position relative to an indicator scale (37, 38) or the like constitutes a directly or indirectly usable indication of the instantaneous closing force. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The torque variation absorbing device comprises a driving plate (2), a flywheel (6), and a spring mechanism (12), a torque limiting mechanism (15) and a hysteresis mechanism (18) installed between the driving plate (2) and the flywheel (6). The torque limiting mechanism (15) is located radially inside the spring mechanism (12) and according to the arrangement, the device can be made compact. In addition, the driving plate (2) has a pair of side plates (2c, 2d) fabricated of steel. The steel structure of the side plates (2c, 2d) makes the side plates thinner. The steel side plate (2d) at one side of the driving plate (2) is bent toward the flywheel (6) and covers a gap (11) between the driving plate (2) and the flywheel (6) from foreign substances. The steel side plate (2c) at the other side of the driving plate (2) has a load supporting point (23, 24) on each surface thereof. The load supporting points (23, 24) are spaced from each other in the radial direction and durability of the device is increased.
