Abstract: A method is disclosed for the preparation of flowable aqueous solutions of betaines of the general formula   <IMAGE>   wherein R1 is the alkyl portion of a fatty acid with 6 to 18 carbon atoms, R2, R3 are the same or different and represent alkyl groups with 1 to 4 carbon atoms x is 2 or 3 and y is 1, 2 or 3 by quaternization of the fatty acid amide R1CONH(CH2)xNR2R3 with  omega -halogenalkylcarboxylic acids X(CH2)COOY or their salts (X=halogen, Y=a hydrogen, alkali or ammonium ion) in aqueous solution at elevated temperatures. The preferably still hot solution, obtained pursuant to the invention after the reaction, is brought to the desired concentration, if necessary, by the evaporation of water. Before or after the concentration of the solution is adjusted to the desired value, mineral acid is added in such amounts, that the pH of the solution becomes 1 to 4.5. If hydrogenated coconut fatty acids are used as the fatty acid mixture for the preparation of the betaine, it is possible to prepare flowable solutions with a solids content of about 54% by weight. Water-soluble nonionic surfactants may be added to the betaine solution.

Granted: 1991-03-06
Abstract: Products having a viscous or pasty consistency, or those dispensed as foams from a container (1) provided with a pushbutton (13) the actuation of which causes the ejection of a dose of product, are never, in practice, completely evacuated from the ejection conduit (14) made in a movable portion (9) bearing the pushbutton (13) and adapted to the outlet of the container (1). Hence they often threaten to escape from this conduit (14) and soil the container (1). To overcome this disadvantage, the invention proposes that the conduit (14) discharge into a chamber (40) defined by a fixed portion (10) attached to the container (1) and with the movable portion (9) comprising a dispensing cap (8); the chamber (40) opens to the outside via an opening (38), and the movable portion (9) includes a needle (27) capable of closing this opening (38) in the position of repose of the pushbutton (13) and of freeing it upon actuation of the pushbutton.

Abstract: A process for preparing a dense, consolidated body (13') from a preform. The process requires compressing the preform (13) in a forging press (18) in an isostatic die assembly (15). The assembly (15) includes an open top (15'), ceramic-containing shell (18) and a pressure-transmitting medium (14) wherein the preform is placed in the shell and surrounded by the medium. The assembly and, hence, the preform are compressed under such conditions of temperature, time and pressure that dense, consolidated body of desired shape is formed. The process then requires recovering the body by separating the body from the fluid pressure-transmitting medium.

Title: Plastic injection-moulding machine with a separator for eliminating useless mouldings
IPC: B29C45/17
Filed: 1989-08-26
Granted: 1992-01-22
Abstract: The plastic injection-moulding machine has a separator which is arranged underneath the injection mould and has a pivotal plate (36). The latter can be pivoted into two inclined positions (acceptable part position and unacceptable part position). In the acceptable part position, the plate (36) terminates above a device (conveyor belt 17) receiving the moulded parts (73). In the unacceptable part position, the plate (36) terminates above a size reduction device. The latter comprises a cutting mechanism (G) which can be removed as a structural unit from the machine frame (M). It further comprises a motor- transmission block, which is arranged outside the vertical projection of the cutting mechanism (G). The separator can be moved as a structural unit (separating unit E) from the machine frame. By such a design, better allowance can be made for the different financial capabilities and different production processes of potential customers. The injection-moulding machine can be supplied in various stages of automation, which can be converted one into the other without requiring any great assembly work. Very little work is also required for removing the simply designed cutting mechanism from the machine frame for exchange, repair or cleaning.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un verre de regard (10) qui utilise à la fois la lumière réfléchie au niveau d'une interface verre/air (40) et la lumière transmise au travers d'un verre sur une interface fluide/verre (44) pour former un motif lumineux qui indique le véritable niveau du fluide. Ce dispositif implique que de la lumière doit toujours apparaître soit dans un canal ''air'' soit dans un canal ''fluide'' (42, 46), et donc toute absence de lumière est due au recouvrement des surfaces par une pellicule ou à d'autres états anormaux. Une absence de lumière est donc un signal qu'un entretien est nécessaire.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un appareil de production d'étoffes nappées. Jusqu'à présent, il a été impossible d'obtenir de larges rubans d'étoffes nappées uniformes, à moins d'installer un grand nombre de broches d'éjection des fibres dans le sens de la largeur de l'étoffe. C'est pourquoi, la présente invention propose un nouveau procédé et un nouvel appareil de production d'étoffes nappées, capables d'accroître la largeur de l'étoffe même en utilisant un petit nombre de broches. Le procédé de production d'étoffes nappées de la présente invention consiste à éjecter un groupe de fibres entraînées par un fluide haute vitesse à travers un ajutage tournant autour de l'axe d'un support cylindrique essentiellement fixe, à disposer en couches les fibres ainsi éjectées sous la forme d'une nappe sur la surface périphérique interne du support cylindrique, à comprimer élastiquement la nappe chauffée au moyen d'un cylindre tournant sur la surface périphérique interne du support cylindrique autour de l'axe de révolution correspondant à l'axe de rotation de l'ajutage, et à reprendre ensuite la nappe sur le support cylindrique tout en la laissant glisser sur ce dernier. L'appareil décrit dans l'invention est utilisé pour permettre la réalisation du procédé décrit ci-dessus.

IPC: C23C28/00

Granted: 1993-05-19
Abstract: The improved corrosion-resistant steel plate with an organic coating comprises a steel plate having a zinc or zinc alloy plate layer which is overlaid with a chromate film which in turn is coated with an organic resin paint film. The organic resin coat comprises an epoxy resin having a dialkanolamine incorporated into its bisphenol A skeleton, an amino resin, and silica. The dialkanolamine combines with the amino resin to provide satisfactory curability at low temperatures; at the same time, it combines with the silica to provide a satisfactory film reinforcing effect. The organic coat formed of this composition can be effectively cured at low temperatures and yet it will neither dissolve nor soften upon swelling under the action of the alkali that is generated during cationic electrodeposition at the interface between the electrodeposited film and the organic coat. Thus, the organic coat has good paint adhesion, high corrosion resistance, as well as good workability and weldability and makes the steel plate suitable for use as an automotive part after painting. If the proportion of trivalent chromium in the chromate film and the amounts of zinc oxide and silica sol to be incorporated as additives are properly adjusted, the organic coating will exhibit satisfactory resistance to chromium dissolution and hence its paint adhesion and corrosion resistance are further improved to make the steel plate more suitable for use as an automotive part after painting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for load-adaptive overload monitoring. According to the invention, a load integral (IPü) and an overload compensation (APü) are formed initially and an overload result (EPü) is then formed from the difference between the overload compensation (APü) and the overload integral (IPü), the overload result (EPü) indicating whether the consequences of an overload (Pü) are reduced and the load integral (IPü) indicating how much overload reserve is still available. A renewed overload (Pü) can thus be permitted much earlier if the overload consequences are reduced, or a plurality of overloads can be permitted within an overload time interval. <IMAGE>
