Inventor: ROLLO PETER ERIC
IPC: F04D29/28
Filed: 1997-05-07
Abstract: Roue (10) présentant un axe (12) autour duquel elle tourne dans un sens actif de rotation A. Plusieurs pales à profil aérodynamique (14) sont placées à une certaine distance de l'axe autour de ce dernier (12). La surface de chaque pale (14), faisant face à l'axe vers l'intérieur (16), définit un chemin d'écoulement de fluide plus long d'un bout à l'autre de la pale que la surface opposée tournée vers l'extérieur (18). Chaque pale a un angle d'attaque compris entre 0° et un angle positif inférieur à celui au niveau duquel la pale induira un écoulement de fluide turbulent lorsque la roue est mise en rotation dans un fluide à une vitesse de travail, dans le sens actif de rotation A. Au cours de cette rotation, la roue induit un flux de fluide d'entrée généralement axialement en direction de la roue et un écoulement de fluide vers l'extérieur s'éloignant de la roue dans des directions généralement inclinées d'environ plus ou moins 30° par rapport à l'axe (12).

Abstract: There are provided a method of producing a pressurized
gas-entrapping candy and a pressurized gas-entrapping apparatus
to be used for the method. According to the method, the pressurized
gas-entrapping candy is produced by preparing a hard candy with
a conventional method, crushing the hard candy and sieving to
obtain candy particles, attaching a pipe with fine holes in its
peripheral wall to a cylindrical vessel through an opening formed
in a lid of the cylindrical vessel, filling the candy particles
in a space between the cylindrical vessel and the pipe, loading
the cylindrical vessel in a long and cylindrical pressure-resistant
vessel, feeding heating steam and then cooling water to
a jacket portion of the pressure-resistant vessel, while
maintaining pressurized state in the pressure-resistant vessel,
to carry out heating and cooling treatments of the candy particles
in the cylindrical vessel, and then releasing the pressurized state
of the pressure-resistant vessel. Since the candy particles do
not directly contact with jacket portion of the pressure-resistant
vessel, therefore, thermal change in quality does not occur and
since the cylindrical vessel fills a function as a cartridge, the
pressurized gas-entrapping candy can be produced in substantially
continuous manner and in large amount to decrease production cost
thereof.

Abstract: A novel composition for increasing the bioavailability of Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory
Drugs (NSAIDs) or derivatives thereof particularly those belonging
to the category which exhibits its activity by selectively inhibiting
cyclooxygenases-II (COX-II) and/or lipooxygenases is disclosed. The
composition is characterised in having clinically significant increased bio-availability
when compared to the known compositions of the drugs. The
pharmaceutical compositions comprise NSAIDs and/or derivatives thereof and
Piperine, its metabolites, structural analogues or isomers of Piperine. Enhanced
bio-availability results in the reduction of the dose of NSAIDs or derivatives
thereof and hence will reduce the cost of therapy in diseases like arthritis which
require long term therapies which results from the high cost of the drugs. Also
as the cost of therapy will decrease, NSAIDs such as Nimesulide can be put to
much wider use in newer indications. Enhanced bio-availability of NSAIDs
results in the reduction of dose-related side effects.

Abstract: To reinforce an extruder screw, an initial hard layer is deposited on at least an edge of the screw peak and only over a fraction of the screw peak width. A second layer of hard material is deposited over the remainder of the screw peak, of a harder material than the first layer. The deposited layers are worked to give the required screw peak shape profile. The second layer is a metal with a nickel base or a very hard ceramic material. At least one of the reinforcement materials is deposited by welding. An Independent claim is included for an extruder screw with at least two layers of different materials deposited side by side at the screw peak surfaces (7). The reinforcement material deposited on and near at least one edge (8,9) of the screw peaks, and on a lateral wall (5,6) of the screw structure (4), has a hardness of max. 52 HRc and at least 5 HRc less than the other deposited material over the remainder of the peak surface. At least one deposited material is a nickel alloy containing tungsten, or it is a ceramic material.

Abstract: An automatic sliding door apparatus (10) has a speed-change
detecting element for detecting a change in the
driving speed of a slide motor (34) above a predetermined value
as well as a pressure sensitive sensor disposed in a front
end portion of a door panel (14), and the detecting of a foreign
object is effected by the pressure sensitive sensor in
regions other than a region in which the door panel slides
at a fixed speed. Accordingly, the detecting of a foreign
object is made possible in a region where the detecting of
a foreign object is difficult in the detection of a change
in speed by the speed-change detecting element. Moreover,
since the detecting of a foreign object based on a change
in speed is not effected in the regions other than the
region in which the door panel slides at the fixed speed,
it is possible to set to a higher level a reference value
in speed change of the speed-change detecting element which
determines that the door panel (14) has received a reaction
force of pressing from a foreign object in the region where
the door panel moves at the fixed speed. The sensitivity
can also be enhanced as a result.

telescoping tubes (27,18,30) slidably mounted, one on the other. The
probe when fully retracted is completely enclosed within the associated
fuel tank assembly (16) resulting in no additional drag or lift on the
aircraft and keeping the probe concealed.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une diode optronique à semi-conducteurs faite d'une couche de nombreuses petites particules isolées (2) où des jonctions de dopage (10) sont disposées entre deux surfaces de contact (6, 8) mécaniquement maintenues par des substrats (4). Selon la réalisation préférée, la zone active est constituée de particules faites d'un semi-conducteur tel que le nitrure d'indium et de gallium. La taille de ces particules est de l'ordre des 10 à 100 νm. Elles sont obtenues par réaction de gallium métal et d'indium métal avec de l'ammoniac, ou par un procédé analogue. Le contact électrique avec les particules (2) est le fait de films électroconducteurs (6, 8) déposés sur les surfaces intérieures des substrats (4). Ces contacts peuvent être réfléchissants ou transparents. Les particules (2) contiennent chacune une jonction p-n (10) ou analogue obtenue par diffusion dans des dopants, ou par activation sélective de dopants déjà présents. Lorsqu'on applique une tension de polarisation directe à des diodes électroluminescentes ainsi réalisées, les porteurs minoritaires partent en fuite par la jonction (10) puis se recombinent avec les porteurs majoritaires, ce qui produit de la lumière. Les diodes électroluminescentes à poudre de la présente invention peuvent en principe être fabriquées de façon à opérer à une longueur d'ondes appartenant au spectre visible.

Abstract: In a computer (901), the function of controlling the
operation of a picture recognition and processing device
(201) for preventing forgery of a printer (902) is
incorporated. With this function, a control signal (S1) for
commanding the operation of the picture recognition and
processing device is outputted to the printer if a command
(C1) accepted from an application (102) is of a type to
which a picture marked for preventing forgery belongs, and
the control signal is not outputted if the command is of a
type to which the picture is not marked for preventing
forgery. In the printer, the function of actuating the
picture recognition and processing device with respect to
picture data (D1) provided from the computer only when the
control signal is inputted from the computer is
incorporated. Thus, in a print system using the computer
and the printer on which the picture recognition and
processing device for forgery prevention is mounted, the
probability that even a picture irrelevant to the act of
forgery will be erroneously recognized as a picture marked
for preventing forgery is lowered, and the print output
speed is improved as a whole.
