Abstract: A process for drying and consolidating a paper making web so as to enhance translucency in the resulting paper. 
     It is known to provide integral patterning by means of a dandy roll or by press marking or by embossing, but none of these known methods achieve controlled enhancement of translucency or tensile strength of paper. 
     The invention provides a process for producing paper having at least portions with enhanced translucency in which a paper making web formed at least in part of cellulosic fibres and having a water content of at least 20% is simultaneously supported and constrained against shrinkage without preventing the release of water or water vapour therefrom, maintained at a temperature sufficient to dry the web without causing thermal degradation as it dries, and subjected across at least portions thereof to a pressure sufficient to produce enhanced translucency and tensile strength in the corresponding portions of the dried paper. If the portions of enhanced translucency are interconnected to form a network this will confer enhanced tensile strength on the structure of the paper.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for preventing simultaneous operation of a heat pump and a separate heating source are disclosed. A thermal sensing element is mounted to the compressor discharge line adjacent the indoor coil of the heat pump when the heat pump is in the heating mode of operation to sense the refrigerant discharge temperature. Based upon the temperature sensed, simultaneous operation of the furnace and the heat pump may be prevented such that the heat pump is not cycled on a compressor overload designed to avoid compressor operation under abusive conditions. Additionally, by the selection of the location of the high temperature sensor, the sensor is not responsive to operation of the heat pump in the cooling mode since the operating temperatures in cooling are significantly below the setpoint to prevent simultaneous operation during heating. The combination of a heating lockout relay and an interlock relay are utilized to provide for fail safe integrated operation including providing for selected control functions and for isolating other functions to prevent a failed electrical component from operating the system in an undesirable manner.

Abstract: A method of taking measurements of an article during manufacture, or of the finished product, without physically contacting the article wherein a series of scans of the article is made by means of an electronic video camera to produce a video signal which is displayed in a visual display unit (VDU) whilst the article which at the commencement of the process has been precisely located relative a pair of orthogonal datum cordinates (corresponding to "X" and "Z" directions of measurement) in a prescribed plane is advanced in prescribed increments and at corresponding intervals along one of said cordinates (i.e. in the "Z" direction) in the said plane, the article being illuminated along a narrow strip oriented along or parallel to the other said cordinate (i.e. in the "X" direction) from a light source which is angularly displaced from the camera within a plane perpendicular to the first said plane which is parallel to the said "Z" direction. 
<??>The light source which is preferably a laser provides a thin fan-shaped beam. Any areas of the article obstructed from the beam by overhanging portions of the article are illuminated from the same beam by means of reflectors placed at the sides of the articles within the beam. If the same or other areas are likewise shielded from the camera, additional reflectors are placed alongside the article, but within the field of view of the camera, so as to reflect images of these areas into the camera. 
<??>A counter which totalizes the incremental displacements of the article in the "Z direction and which provides a display of the running count during each interval is arranged in a prescribed location within the field of view of the camera. The counter, which is zeroed at the commencement of the process, appears in the video display throughout the process as an indication of displacement of the article in the "Z" direction. 
<??>The video signal respecting the camera scan during each interval is displayed on the VDU alongside a display of a video recording of the corresponding scan of a master representation made under precisely identical conditions, and the amplitudes of the two signals (corresponding to "Y" direction of measurement) relative to common positions along their respective base lines corresponding to "X" directions of measurement) are then accurately compared to indicate the dimensional variations of the article from the master representation. 
<??>A manual tracking means for use with the visual display unit is disclosed by means of which the displays respectively corresponding to the article and the master representation (each of which is seen as a line tracking over the screen of the VDU, both in the same direction) are tracked, the displacements in the "X" and "Y" direction being automatically measured and digitised, and the "Y" displacements being aautomatically compensated to produce true "Y" displacements in the plane perpendicular to the said prescribed plane.

Abstract: A governor (20) governs engine and load speed and is especially adapted for use with motor vehicles. It comprises an overriding throttle closing device (36) with a linear actuator (64) for moving the device to a position for limiting the engine speed and load speed to governed values. An electronic control circuit (66) comprising a microprocessor operating under program control produces motor control signals for a reversible electric motor (62) which drives the actuator through a gear train (92, 94, 96) and lead screw (84). An engine speed signal generator provides an electrical speed signal to the control circuit and a road speed signal generator supplies a load speed signal to the control circuit. When the speed signal exceeds a predetermined value, the control circuit produces motor control signals for operating the motor at full speed to move the actuator to a reference position causing operation in a reference point governing mode. In this mode when the speed signal exceeds the governed value, the control circuit produces motor control circuits for operation of the motor at slow speed in the close throttle direction. When the speed signal is less than the governed speed, the control circuit produces motor control signals for operating the motor at slow speed in the wide open throttle direction.
