Inventor: COLLEGE JOHN W
IPC: B01D53/34
Filed: 1993-06-04
Abstract: A method is provided for removing sulfur dioxide from a hot gaseous stream while directly producing α-hemihydrate gypsum from a scrubber effluent. A portion of an aqueous scrubbing medium containing calcium and magnesium sulfite is removed from a scrubbing unit and passed to a pressurized oxidation vessel where the sulfites are contacted with an oxidizing gas at an elevated temperature to convert calcium sulfite directly to α-hemihydrate gypsum and magnesium sulfite to magnesium sulfate. The α-hemihydrate is separated from the aqueous medium removed from the pressurized oxidation vessel.

Abstract: The aqueous dispersions from the polymerisation of fluorinated thermoplastics can be worked up continuously to give a high-quality product if first the cations are removed from the aqueous dispersion, then the dispersion is compressed and decompressed through small apertures and thus coagulated, the coagulated phase is washed on a filter and partially dewatered and subsequently comminuted to give a flowable product, and the latter is dried to the desired residual moisture content. In this way, high-quality products which can be fed directly to a melt extruder are obtained at high throughputs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system for artificial spatial processing of digital audio signals x(k). They consist in or make it possible to effect on elementary signals xi(k), replicas of the digital audio signal, the different delays producing delayed elementary signals (seri) which, after weighting, are summed with the signal x(k) to produce the spatially processed digital audio signal y(k). A plurality of linear combinations of the signals (seri) as combined delayed elementary signals (serci) is summed with the elementary signals xi(k). In order to simulate a sluggish reverberation, the linear combinations are effected through unit looping, and an attenuation hi( omega ), a decreasing monotonic function of the reverberation time Tr( omega ) to be simulated and proportional to the delay, is effected with each delay. A spectral correction prior to weighted summation is effected satisfying the relation: <IMAGE> tau i denoting the value of each delay increased by the phase delay due to the attenuation. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for determining the optical properties of a lens
Inventor: PERCIVAL CHRISTOPHER J
IPC: G01M11/02
Filed: 1993-03-05
Abstract: Optical properties of a lens, including localized defects, are determined by analyzing the refracted image produced by transmitting a beam of light through an aperture and a lens to be tested. The image is reflected onto a light sensitive detecting surface. Information obtained from the light detecting surface is digitized and sent to an Image Processing Unit which calculates the optical properties of the lens. The aperture may consist of a single shaped opening or alternatively a plurality of concentric, annular rings. Correction lenses may be employed, either permanently or selectively, to alter the refracted beam before the beam intersects the detecting surface.

Date Oct. 28, 1993A method for determining the carbon equivalent (C.E.) of structure modified cast iron melts, and use of this method for adjusting the composition of a structure modified cast iron melt. The method is based on the introduction of one or more pieces of iron of low carbon content into a sample container. The iron piece or pieces has/have a size such that the iron piece/pieces will not melt completely when the sample container is filled with melt, which is allowed to solidify. The temperature of the melt is recorded as the melt solidifies. When practicing the method, there is obtained a well-defined absolute temperature as the temperature passes the  gamma -phase liquidus lines, or a temperature difference in relation to the eutectic temperature of structure-modified cast iron of a closely similar type. The carbon equivalent is determined on the basis of a phase diagram applicable to this structure-modified cast iron. The carbon equivalent of the melt is adjusted by adding carbon and/or silicon or iron of low carbon content.

Abstract: A braking apparatus performs its braking action by pressing a brake bush (74L,74R) radially inwardly against a rod (22). The brake bush (74L,74R) is pressed via a plurality of coned disk springs (3L,3R;3), each of which has a plurality of outer and inner radial recesses (3a,3b) extending from its outer and inner peripheral edges, respectively. The outer and inner recesses (3a,3b) are arranged in an alternating fashion along the circumference of the spring (3). As a brake piston (69L,69R) moves in the axial direction of the rod (22), the inner peripheral edge of each of the springs (3a,3b) is compressed or deformed radially inwardly. The brake piston (69L,69R) is moved by compressed air supplied from outside. By increasing the radial length of each of the inner radial recesses (3b) of the coned disk springs (3) in such a manner that the radial outward end (3b') of the recess is located far beyond the radial inward end (3a') of each adjacent outer radial recess (3a), it is permitted to provide at least three or more coned disk springs (3) around the brake bush (74L,74R). Thus, abrasion of each coned disk spring (3) can be minimized, and durability of the braking apparatus can be greatly enhanced. Further, by forming each of the coned disk springs (3) so as to have a rectangular sectional shape, it is possible for the braking apparatus to perform a sufficient braking function even when the outer and inner peripheral edges of the coned disk springs (3) have been abraded to a considerable degree.
