Title: Improved air/particle separator
Inventor: NORTH JOHN HERBERT
IPC: B04C11/00
Filed: 2001-07-05
Granted: 2005-02-09
Abstract: A method of separating particles from particle laden air is described. The apparatus employed is a multiple stage separator in which the first stage comprises a generally cylindrical chamber (18) having a hollow central member (50) extending axially from one end thereof with openings in its wall (53) remote from the said one end. The first separation step is achieved by introducing air tangentially into the chamber (18) near its said one end, the tangential entry in combination with an unapertured region of the wall (53) of the central member establishing a rotating mass of air in the chamber, thereby causing heavier than air particles to migrate to the outer regions of the chamber (18) under centrifugal force. Suction is applied to the interior of the central member (42) to cause an axial movement of air through the chamber before it can exit through the openings in the wall (53) of the central member. The suction force is selected such that particles near the walls of the chamber tend to continue in a generally rotational and axially progressive path into a particle collecting region (26) of the chamber, while relatively particle-free air is drawn radially inwardly, as it progresses axially, so as to exit to a second separation stage (40), through the openings in the central member wall (53). A skirt (56) extends from the end of the central member beyond the region containing the exit openings, to define a narrow annular gap between the skirt (56) and the wall (22) of the chamber, so that particles in the collection region (26) are prevented from reaching the exit openings (52). An annular flange (68) is provided around the central member (50) between the unapertured and apertured regions of the wall thereof, so as to force the vortex of rotating air within the chamber away from the central member as it progresses along the chamber (18). Particles separated in a later separation stage (40) are conveyed to a particle collecting region (66) via a passage extending through the central member (50) of the first stage, which may include a valve which is closed during air flow, and is opened after air flow ceases to allow particles collected upstream of the valve to pass into the particle collecting region. <IMAGE>

Title: Palletised loads of containers
Inventor: FACEY HUGH DAVID
IPC: B65D71/00

Granted: 2008-05-07
Abstract: A device for use on palletized loads of containers for maintaining tension in vertical strapping comprises a rectangle (20) having outer dimensions commensurate with the dimensions of a pallet or dolly on which. containers are to be stacked in layers, each side of the rectangle comprising upper and lower leaves (21L, 22L) diverging from hinge means at the inner edge of the side, the lower leaves (22L) of all four sides being disposed in a common plane, and spring means (23) urging the outer edges of the upper and lower leaves apart. In one form of the device (20) the sides of a pair of rectangular frames (21, 22) constitute the upper and lower leaves (21L, 22L) and conical coil compression springs (23) are provided between the frames to urge them apart, tethering means (25, 27) adjacent the inner edges of the frames being such as to form the hinge means between the leaves, while tethering means (24, 26) adjacent the outer edges of the frames limit the extent to which the leaves (21L, 22L) are caused to diverge. In other forms the spring means is integral with the hinge means.

Title: Composite structure for joining intersecting structural members of an airframe
IPC: D03D3/00
Filed: 1981-04-21
Granted: 1984-07-25
Abstract: A joint between two structural members of composite graphite fibre or other fibre-reinforced material, which may for example form part of the frame of an aircraft, is provided by interdigitated fibres of two bundles 18 and 19 each of which eventually forms one of the structural members 14 and 16. The bundles 18 and 19 are positioned so that they intersect one another at an angle and the graphite fibres are interdigitated at the point of intersection. The fibres are bonded together with a curable resin so as to form a rigid joint. A joint of this kind permits even distribution of structural loads irrespective of the direction of the load force. The joint may be further reinforced by the addition of a third bundle of fibres 32 which extends at an angle to both bundles 18 and 19 and which are interwoven with the fibres of both members 14 and 16 at the intersection. <IMAGE>

Patent HU-214416-B (HU)
Title: Method for making cable and optical fibre package
Inventor: BARKER PHILIP ALFRED
IPC: G02B6/44
Filed: 1992-07-01
Abstract: An optical fibre package suitable for installation using a fibre blowing process comprises at least one optical fibre, an inner coating about said fibre, and an outer resin coating about said inner coating, said resin coating including a significant plurality of particulate inclusions at least 10  mu m across, wherein the concentration of the particulate inclusions is significantly greater at the outer surface of the resin coating than at the inner limit of the resin coating. The inclusions may be hollow glass microspheres or mica flakes. The relative absence of significant particulate inclusions at the inner limit of the resin coating improves the mechanical performance of the fibre package relative to similar known packages. The presence of significant inclusions at the outer surface of the resin coating tends, during a blowing process, to increase viscous drag effects and to reduce friction between the package and the duct into which the package is blown, thereby enhancing blowability. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1986-12-10
Abstract: Small bundles of elongated profile elements that arrive generally regularly at an intake station wherein the elements are first displaced in a transport direction generally perpendicular to their elongation direction from the intake station to a pickup station. There they are arrested in a pair of groups with the elements closely spaced in their respective groups and the groups widely spaced in the transport direction. The pair of spaced groups is then picked up without substantially changing its spacings and the pair of spaced groups is deposited in a takeoff station while further pairs of spaced groups are formed in the pickup station. These further pairs are then picked up and deposited on top of the respective groups in the takeoff station to form a pair of stacks each constituting a bundle. For nesting the elements it is possible to invert every other pair of spaced groups before depositing same in the takeoff station.
