Abstract: A method for operating a palladium oxide containing catalytic combustor useful, e.g., for powering a gas turbine. The method involves maintaining control of the temperature within the combustor in such a manner as to insure the presence of palladium oxide. By maintaining the temperature below about 800 DEG C decomposition of palladium oxide into metallic palladium is avoided and high catalytic activity is retained. Regeneration of catalyst following inactivation resulting from an over-temperature is accomplished by using a heat soak in the temperature range of about 530 DEG C-650 DEG C.

Abstract: A pedal cycle has a rear wheel suspension (26) pivoted to the main frame and a front wheel suspension pivotally and slidably mounted to the main frame, and the two suspensions are interconnected e.g. by a rod (33) to transmit forces between them. Any load on one wheel, tending to lift that wheel by movement of its suspension relative to the main frame, is transmitted to the other suspension tending to lift that suspension relative to the main frame. Further, a load placed on the front suspension by the rider pushing down on the forward pedal causes a force to be transmitted to the rear suspension, in opposition to a force applied to the rear suspension by tension developed in the transmission chain owing to the force applied by the rider to the forward pedal. The interaction between transmission and suspension provides for a cycle with better responsiveness than in a conventional cycle.

Abstract: Un réseau de photodiodes est constitué d'un matériau du groupe II-VI, tel que HgCdTe, que l'on traite pour former une pluralité de jonctions de diodes. Ce réseau est fabriqué par un procédé consistant tout d'abord à réaliser une base absorbant le rayonnement (12), constituée d'un matériau du type p, à savoir Hg(1-x)CdxTe). Chacune des photodiodes est fabriquée par dépôt sur le substrat d'une couche (18) de matière de passivation à largeur de bande interdite plus grande, par dépôt d'une couche de photomasque (26) sur la couche de passivation et par élimination sélective de ladite couche de passivation à travers des ouvertures pratiquées à l'intérieur de la couche de photomasque. Un procédé d'élimination de cette couche de passivation (18) est le broyage ionique qui convertit également le matériau de substrat de type p sous-jacent en matériau de type n. La détérioration du réseau cristallin provoquée par le broyage ionique s'étend latéralement vers l'extérieur de sorte que la région de type n (14), et la jonction de diode p-n (16) qui lui est adjointe, sont disposées au-dessous de la couche de passivation (18). Dans une variante, le matériau de substrat est converti en un type opposé de conductivité par dépôt d'une couche de matériau source suivi d'un processus de diffusion.

Abstract: Un dispositif de réglage de la pression d'admission peut comporter un capteur de pression et un capteur de différence de pression, le capteur de pression étant relié à l'un des deux collecteurs d'admission d'un moteur à combustion interne et le capteur de différence de pression étant agencé entre les deux collecteurs d'admission. Alternativement, ledit dispositif peut comporter un seul capteur de pression (18) qui, grâce à une soupape de commutation (24), se déplace entre le premier collecteur d'admission (11.1) et le second collecteur d'admission (11.2). Ledit dispositif et le procédé correspondant permettent de régler très précisément la pression des deux collecteurs d'admission sur une même valeur prédéterminée. La faiblesse systématique des procédés et dispositifs de l'art antérieur résidait en effet dans le fait que la pression des deux collecteurs d'admission était mesurée par des capteurs de pression distincts. Or des capteurs de pression différents, lorsqu'ils sont de faction simple, tendent à indiquer des valeurs différentes pour des pressions identiques.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is constituted by an image-bearing member for bearing a latent image, and a developing apparatus for developing the latent image. The developing apparatus is constituted by a developer container for containing a developer, a developer-carrying member for carrying and conveying the developer contained in the developer container to a developing zone opposite the image-bearing member, and an elastic blade for regulating the developer carried and conveyed on the developer-carrying member to a prescribed thickness to form a thin developer layer on the developer-carrying member. A developer suitable for use in the above developing apparatus is given by a toner, which comprises a binder resin composition which contains 10 - 70 wt. % of a THF (tetrahydrofuran)-insoluble content and the remainder of a THF-soluble content including a component with a molecular weight of 10000 or below on a GPC (gel permeation chromatography) chromatogram of the THF-soluble content constituting 10 - 50 wt. % of the binder resin.

Abstract: A glass body is described, in particular a pane of glass, which is made in such a way that it is suitable for sealing to another material. 
<??>At the time of sealing, there is on the glass body at least one profile of an adhesive, which at this time is already solidified and consequently serves as a spacer. Furthermore, there is on the glass body a profile of a second adhesive, which at the time of sealing is still plastically deformable and has adhesive properties. During the establishing of the adhesive bond, this second adhesive is shaped and pressed onto the other material. Due to the fact that the profile of the second, still tacky adhesive is still directly on the glass body, or at least a layer of a material which does not transmit ultraviolet light, or possibly an intermediate layer of an adhesion promoter, a very good firm bond is achieved.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for improving the thermal stability of polyalpha-olefin lubricants by contacting the lubricant with an acidic catalyst for a time and at a temperature sufficient to achieve the skeletal isomerization of the molecular structure of the lubricant. The reaction is carried out preferably on unhydrogenated synthetic lubricants in contact with Lewis acid catalysts. Following the isomerization reaction, the unsaturated lubricant is hydrogenated to produce lubricant with better thermal stability. Surprisingly, when the isomerization reaction is carried out using unsaturated oligomer produced from the oligomerization of alpha-olefins in contact with reduced Group VIB metal oxide catalyst on porous support as starting material the viscometric properties of the lubricant, e.g., viscosity and VI, are not significantly altered, although the thermal stability of the lubricant is substantially increased. The reaction of the present invention may be carried out neat or in the presence of a solvent. Improvements in thermal stability are observed over a wide range of catalyst concentrations. Concentrations of about 10 weight percent are preferred with aluminum chloride catalyst.

Abstract: The grate roll, of conventional structure, has a framework in the form of a cylindrical cage with longitudinal members (10) with a T- shaped profile arranged according to generating lines, and a lining formed from groups (G) of rings separated by gaps (i) for blowing oxidant air, the rings being segmented into bars ((1-6).11, (1-6).11') in the form of arcs which extend between the longitudinal members. According to the invention, in order to limit the clearance of the bars while leaving them play, they are, attached on one side by an indentation to the wing of a longitudinal member, held in position by bosses ((1-6).128, (1-6).129) of an interposed piece (12) bolted longitudinally onto the longitudinal member; the bars ((1-5).11, (1- 5).11') have recesses at their end which is contiguous with the intermediate piece (12), in which the bosses engage. The bars are thus attached with limited clearance in the axial, radial and peripheral directions in relation to the roll.

The continuous fibers, the cut fibers, and the resin are then passed through the die and become integrated into a pultruded part with the transverse cut fibers providing a transverse strength.
