Patent CA-2153995-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BEITELMAN LEONID
IPC: B22D11/115
Filed: 1994-01-14
Abstract: An induction stirring method wherein molten metal is elec-tromagnetically stirred during continuous casting in a mold includes control of meniscus depression, either to decrease or enhance the stirring of the molten metal produced by the main electromagnetic stirrer.  An A.C. magnetic stirring modifier is positioned adjacent the region of meniscus to produce electromagnetic stirring of the molten metal at the meniscus, either to oppose the rotary motion of the main electromagnetic stirrer and provide a surface free from turbulence or to enhance the rotary motion of the main magnetic stirrer. These two alternative modes of operation permit a casting machine to be used for casting molten metals requiring widely varying operating condi-tions.

Title: Reciprocating floor conveyor with liquid collecting base structure
Inventor: FOSTER RAYMOND KEITH
IPC: B65G25/06
Filed: 1996-07-25
Abstract: Adjacent  base  sections  of  a  base  structure  of  a reciprocating floor conveyor are connected along longitudinal side edges by a tongue and groove joint.   Side portions of adjacent sections form a guide beam.  The groove and tongue portions of the joint are formed at lower ends of angled inner walls extending downwardly from the top of the guide beam.  The inner walls together define an upwardly opening space above the joint.  The space is large enough, and the groove and tongue portions are spaced below the top of the guide beam a distance sufficient, to permit the joint to be sealed while maintaining the joint, including sealing portions thereof, isolated from the top of the guide beam and from a bearing positioned on the guide beam.  The tongue and groove portions together define a sealing space for receiving a flexible sealant to seal the joint. Sealant oozing out of the sealing space into the space above the joint is isolated from the bearing.  The joint may also be secured by a weld bead in the space above the joint. A layer of flexible sealant may be placed on top of the bead. Both the bead and the sealant are isolated from the bearing.

Patent CA-2185483-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KLINKE BERNHARD R
IPC: F23D5/16
Filed: 1996-09-13
Abstract: A liquefied fuel vaporizer employs temperature-sensitive safety switches as back-up safety devices to prevent the vaporizer from overheating. The vaporizer includes a hollow pressure vessel with a liquefied fuel inlet that receives liquefied fuel and a fuel vapor outlet that dispenses fuel vapor. Mounted within the pressure vessel is a heat-conductive core that heats the liquefied fuel to produce the fuel vapor. Mounted within the heat-conductive core are electrically resistive heating elements that heat the heat-conductive core when activated by electrical current. A first temperature sensor senses a temperature of the heat-conductive core and produces a first sensor signal indicative of the temperature. A control system electrically connects the first heating elements to a power supply using a power relay to control the amount of current delivered to the heating elements in response to the sensor signal and thereby controls the temperature of the heater core during normal operations. Each temperature-sensitive safety switch is coupled between at least one of the heating elements and the power relay to electrically disconnect the heating elements from the power supply when the temperature-sensitive safety switch senses that the temperature of the heat-conductive core exceeds a predetermined maximum temperature even if the power relay fails in the closed state. The temperature-sensitive safety switches disconnect the heating elements from the power supply independent of the operation of the control system so that the protection provided is not dependent on the proper functioning of the control system.
