Abstract: A dynamoelectric machine has a stator member, a rotor member, a first shroud and a second shroud. The first shroud and the second shroud members are mounted to the rotor adjacent respective first and second end portions of the rotor for rotation with the rotor. The first and second shrouds extend radially over and are spaced from the respective radially extending first and second end portions of the rotor to respectively define radial inlet and outlet paths therewith. The first and second shrouds each have a first radially inner end adjacent and spaced from the shaft to define a gas inlet or outlet, respectively, and a second radial outer end mounted to the rotor adjacent and spaced apart the ventilation ducts for communicating gas between the ventilation ducts and the inlet and outlet paths. The second outlet shroud is spaced further from the shaft than the inlet shroud so as to facilitate the gas flowing in the inlet shroud and out the outlet shroud during normal machine operation. Fan motors are provided at the inlet and outlet of the shrouds to direct gas flow. The present invention provides for an improvement in windage loss by angularly accelerating the gas prior to entering the ventilation ducts of the rotor and an additional improvement by partially reclaiming energy at the outlet shroud energy by angularly decelerating the gas flow.

Abstract: This invention relates to metallurgy and machine building, more specifically to the development of a method that improves service life, durability and repair of machine components by applying coatings to working surfaces followed by special treatment of the surfaces. The essence of the invention is deposition of erosion and corrosion resistant coatings on machine components, that comprises a plurality of microlayers wherein each of the microlayers comprises one or more elements selected from the transition metal group, solid solutions or interstitial phases based thereon, and wherein one or more of the microlayers is subjected to high energy non-metallic ion deposition that causes changes in structure and composition of the deposited microlayer thus improving performance characteristics. After the full coating has been deposited, a vibromechanical treatment with micro-pellets is applied to the surface of machine components, that improves distribution of residual stresses.   The method makes it possible to deposit coatings having high resistance to wear and corrosion, and having a sufficient level of fatigue strength of machine components, primarily gas-turbine compressor blades and vanes.

Granted: 2007-04-17
Abstract: There is provided a driving force control system for a four-wheel drive vehicle, which is capable of preventing occurrence of a tight-turn braking phenomenon by relatively simple construction to thereby reduce the manufacturing cost thereof, and at the same time, enhancing the response of slippage-eliminating control on main drive wheels, and stability of the vehicle. The 2/WD .cndot. ECU of the driving force control system 1 controls electromagnetic clutches of a four-wheel drive vehicle having front wheels as main drive wheels and rear wheels as auxiliary drive wheels, whereby the LSD torque to be distributed to the rear wheels is controlled. More specifically, the front-wheel/rear-wheel slip ratio is determined from the average front wheel speed and the average rear wheel speed, and the left/right rear-wheel speed ratio and the front-wheel/rear-wheel slip ratio threshold are determined according to the rear wheel speeds, and a first LSD torque for use in calculation of the LSD torque is determined based on the difference between the front-wheel/rear-wheel slip ratio and the front-wheel/ rear-wheel slip ratio threshold.

Abstract: A dry powder inhaler (20) has a dispersion chamber (30) containing beads (40). A dose of dry powder (142) is released into the chamber, or into an inlet (26) tangentially joining into the chamber. As the patient inhales on a nosepiece or mouthpiece (22), air moves circularly through the dispersion chamber to drive the beads. The beads roll, bounce, and collide repeatedly with the drug particles on the chamber surfaces or on the beads. The smaller active drug particles are separated from the larger carrier particles and from each other, and a powder aerosol is created and inhaled by the patient. The beads are preferably lightweight, so that they can be rapidly accelerated and moved, even with nominal inspiration. The flow resistance of the inhaler is also reduced via the beads, allowing greater air flow and powder dispersion, without any increased effort by the patient.

Title: Self regulating spout
Inventor: ESSEBAGGERS JAN
IPC: B65D83/16
Filed: 2001-05-04
Granted: 2008-04-22
Abstract: The invention related to a "flow control element" with suction spout for carbonated beverage cans. The fluid remains under pressure while access is possible when suction is applied to the spout. The spout is attached to a housing enclosure that holds a spring, a centrally perforated membrane, a valve stem and a valve. This housing enclosure extends into the inside of the container, which extended part functions as a guide for the valve stem and that incorporates the valve seat. The valve stem is attached to the perforated membrane on one side and to the valve on the other side. When suction is applied the membrane moves the valve and opens a flow path, thereby allowing fluid to flow through the valve stem and the perforated membrane to the mouth.  When the suction stops, a spring closes the valve against the gas pressure in the can or container.

Abstract: A technique that unburned fuel is burned in an exhaust pipe is known as a technique for preventing a turbo lag. Since the technique premises combustion in the exhaust pipe, the temperature in the exhaust pipe becomes high and the damage to the exhaust pipe becomes significant. Further, there is the possibility that the emission may be deteriorated. It is assumed that a throttle in a closed state is opened rapidly at a point P1 in FIG. (a). If the speed then is on the left side of a rapid opening threshold value indicated in the graph, then the opening is regarded as rapid opening. In (c), the ignition timing is changed over from an ordinary ignition timing to a corrected ignition timing at a point P3 at which information that the throttle speed has exceeded the rapid opening threshold value is received. When the throttle valve is opened rapidly, the ignition timing is advanced with respect to the ordinary ignition timing. Consequently, the start of combustion is advanced, and the speed of rotation of the engine can be raised thereby to advance the rise of an exhaust turbine and achieve augmentation of the drivability (driving performance).
