Inventor: HASHIMOTO MASUYUKI
IPC: F24F3/14
Filed: 1995-05-25
Abstract: A compact and effective ventilator/dryer assembly for heating the room to which it is installed has a case main body 1 divided into a primary zone 3A communicating with an air inlet port 2A, a tertiary zone 3C communicating with an air outlet port 2B and a secondary zone 3B disposed adjacent to the tertiary zone and the primary zone. Moist air A in a room 100 is forced to flow through the air inlet port, the primary zone, the secondary zone, the tertiary zone and the air outlet port and back into the room by a centrifugal type air blower 21 and moisture contained in the room air is adsorbed by a cylindrical rotary type moisture adsorbing device 31 arranged between the secondary zone and the tertiary zone as the air is made to come into contact with a moisture-removing portion 31A of the adsorbing device 31. Dried air B is moved to into the tertiary zone, where it is heated to produce heating air E, which is discharged from the air outlet port into the room. At the same time, the heat recovered by the heat recovering portion 31C of the rotary type moisture adsorbing device is utilized to heat regenerating air C, which is led to the tertiary zone by a drying/heating changeover damper 48 and then discharged from the air outlet port.

Title: Transmission device
Inventor: BENESCH LLOYD
IPC: F16H3/42
Filed: 1994-03-09
Abstract: A transmission (10) permits power from an input shaft (12) to an output shaft (60), wherein the input shaft defines a first axis and the output shaft defines a second axis, includes a first member (42) including a contacting surface (72) which extends along at least a portion of a circle.

Patent CA-2188616-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NOLTE HUBERT
IPC: F23N5/12
Filed: 1996-10-23
Abstract: In a process for controlling a gas blower burner, an ionization electrode sends an electrical variable derived from the combustion temperature or the lambda value to a control circuit, which compares this variable with a selected electrical set point and adjusts the gas-to-air ratio (lambda value) to a corresponding lambda set point. To compensate the effect of a condition-dependent change in the proportionality between the lambda value and the electrical measured variable derived from it on the control in such a way that the desired lambda set point will be maintained, a calibration cycle is run from time to time. The lambda value is reduced from a value of > 1 during this cycle. The maximum obtained at lambda = 1 is stored. The electrical set point is adjusted with this maximum.

Title: Welding process for hardenable or hardened steels
Inventor: GUTH BELA
IPC: B23K9/00
Filed: 1996-10-29
Abstract: A cold welding process that eliminates heat treatment of welds in hardenable steel or hardened steel, alloy steel, high alloy steel, high carbon forged steel, bi-metal union, manganese steel such as Hadfield steel, and so on, without hardening the deposited weld, wheraby also the transition area of the deposited weld is not hardened, thus preserving the mechanical and physical characteristics of the basic material, and maintaining the deposited weld fileable and machineable, by specific AWS-307, AWS-309, AWS-312 and AWS-8018 through 10018 electrodes. The temperature of the welded parts should never exceeed 100°C during the welding process. This control of maximum temperature is obtained by welding a series of relatively short fillets instead of a single long fillet extending the length of the joint. The short fillets are followed by open spaces without a weld, and those open spaces are filled with weld fillets once the interrupted welding is completed for that weld pass.
