Patent EP-0154448-A3 (EP)
IPC: C01G27/02
Filed: 1985-02-20
Abstract: A process for the recovery of zirconium from an aqueous 
acid solution by solvent extraction is disclosed. The process 
includes contacting the aqueous acid solution, which may 
also contain titanium and other metallic impurities, with an 
organic solution of a water-insoluble organic solvent and a 
suitable dialkyl-organophosphinic acid whereby zirconium 
and hafnium are selectively extracted from the aqueous 
solution into the organic solution with only minor amounts 
of coextracted titanium and other metallic impurities. The 
zirconium and hafnium may be subsequently stripped from 
the pregnant organic solution by contacting the solution with 
an aqueous ammonium carbonate solution whereby the 
zirconium and hafnium are selectively extracted from the 
organic solution into the aqueous ammonium carbonate 
solution with only trace amounts of coextracted titanium and 
other metallic impurities. A high purity zirconium/hafnium 
oxide may subsequently be precipitated from the pregnant 
aqueous ammonium carbonate solution by a controlled 
heating process.

IPC: B21D1/05
Filed: 1985-08-01
Abstract: A leveling apparatus for leveling strips of metallic material 
comprising a support housing (60); a guide tube (26), rotatably 
attached to the support housing, having a hollow interior (34) 
and a longitudinal slot (36); a cylindrical support roll (22), rotat­
ably attached to the housing and positioned within the guide 
tube; a cylindrical work roll (20) having a diameter substantially 
less than the support roll and positioned within the slot; and a 
feedback control (24) for rotating the guide tube (26) to posi­
tion the work roll (20) such that forces exerted upon the work 
roll by a metallic strip passing over it act to hold the work roll 
against the support roll (22), and tangential components of the 
force tending to urge the work roll against the guide tube are 
minimized. In a preferred embodiment, the control comprises 
a pair of opposing cylinders (70, 72) which are pressurized by 
a source of compressed fluid. A servo valve (68) responsive to 
forces exerted by the work roll (20) upon the guide tube (26) 
depressurizes one of the cylinders and pressurizes the other 
causing an imbalance in which a rod joining the cylinders is dis­
placed to rotate the guide tube to a position in which the force 
exerted by the work roll upon the guide tube is minimized.

Title: Girdle for training apparatus for training muscles of thigh and calf
IPC: A63B23/04
Filed: 1987-03-12
Abstract: The girdle is used with the aid of a device for stressing the thighs and calves of a person executing knee-bends from a standing position.   The girdle is to be designed in such a way that, when the exercising person has placed it around the hips and fastened it, the weight of the swinging lever attached to it is transferred via the hips of the exercising person and not via their spinal column. This is achieved by a dimensionally stable, annular, padded shell, the circumferential length of which corresponds approximately to the circumference of the human body in the hip region and is open in its front region facing the abdomen and forms opposite opening edge regions which are held together by an adjustable fastening belt attached to the shell. Extending from said fastening belt to the crotch is a force transmission belt which retains in the centre the front end of a rigid bow-shaped body which passes through the crotch and the rear end of which is attached to the rear part of the shell and which has an attachment element for mounting a weight of the training apparatus. <IMAGE>

Title: Apparatus to connect pole straps and poles to the conducting flags of a plate set in an accumulator
IPC: H01M50/541
Filed: 1987-05-20
Abstract: A device, configured as a double mold, for casting terminal bars (straps) and terminal poles onto the lugs of a completely assembled plate group for electric storage batteries ensures optimum attachment of all of the lugs (both polarities) to the molten bar lead if the heat exchange between the bar lead and the dipped volume of each negative or positive lug is identical. This requirement is met by causing the negative and positive casting molds, together with their contents, to form thermally equivalent sections or blocks, which are equalized if necessary, by changing the dimensions (thickness) of the mold's walls. When the lugs are made of lead or a lead alloy, such a double mold also makes it possible, during a subsequent two-stage cooling process, to first allow the terminal poles to solidify, simultaneously, and to then allow the terminal bars to solidify, simultaneously. If the negative plates of the cell group have copper grids and lugs (which may also be coated with lead or lead-tin alloys), the two-stage cooling process must be effected at different working rates for the two polarities.

Patent EP-0229732-A3 (EP)
Title: Recording and/or reproducing apparatus for longitudinal recording
IPC: G11B15/18
Filed: 1987-01-16
Abstract: A recording and/or reproducing apparatus employs azimuth-pair-head (41, 42, 43, 44) in a rotary head drum. The rotary head drum is axially shifted by a head shifting means. First tracks (No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4) are formed on a magnetic tape (10) during forward driving of the magnetic tape across the rotary head drum. On the other hand, second tracks (No. 5, No. 6, No. 7, No. 8) are formed adjacent to the first tracks during reverse driving across the rotary head drum. Since the first and second tracks are formed by means of the azimuth-pair-head, azimuth gaps thereof will have different or symmetrical obliquity to each other. This successfully avoids cross-talk between adjacent tracks to allow formation of the first and second tracks in a tightly arranged fashion. As a consequence, high-density longitudinal recording without cross-talk between adjacent tracks becomes possible.
