Patent EP-0352018-B1 (EP)
IPC: F16L23/04
Filed: 1989-07-13
Granted: 1993-03-10
Abstract: A device for jointing or closing pipe ends and comprising a single or double-ended rigid or semi-rigid tubular body (10) adapted to retain and protect a single or double-ended elastomeric sleeve (12) with a resilient annular collar (13) protruding from the body at the or each end. The sleeve (12) surrounds the pipe to be joined or closed, and a clamping ring consisting of a pair of semi-circular segments (14) is closed around the collar (13) with bolts (15) and diametrically opposed wedge-like members (18) which are in sliding engagement with the internal surfaces of the clamping ring segments (14) thus to be forced inwardly together with the latter when the bolts (15) are tightened. This ensures a substantially unform radial compression of the collar (13) around the pipe wall.

Abstract: A solid state pressure sensor utilizes a brittle diaphragm made of a material such as silicon, which is mounted between base plates of glass, and which deflects in response to pressure. The base plates of glass can have recesses formed therein to receive the diaphragm and provide a full support across the diaphragm under overpressure conditions to prevent overstressing the diaphragm, or the diaphragm can have such contoured surfaces for forming overpressure stop surfaces against the facing base plate. The diaphragm has grooves defining a central portion that deflects, and whereby the grooves will form webs joining the central portion to an outer rim so that the diaphragm acts similarly to a "free edge" diaphragm in its deflection characteristics. The grooves defining the webs can have various configurations for achieving the results desired.

Granted: 1993-12-22
Abstract: An ion-exchange composition is disclosed comprising synthetic resin support particles, dispersant capable of suspending the support particles in an aqueous medium to inhibit or prevent agglomeration, and fine synthetic resin layering particles. The composition can be formed by contacting a suitable dispersant with monomer in a suitable aqueous solution under conditions whereby the monomer polymerizes to form resin support particles having dispersant irreversibly attached to those particles by either covalent bonding or permanent physical entanglement. The complex can then be mixed in aqueous slurry form with fine resin layering particles under conditions suitable to form a resin support particle-dispersant resin layering particle complex in which the resin layering particles are irreversibly attached to the dispersant. The dispersant, in effect, forms an irreversible bridge between the support and layering particles.

Abstract: The present invention relates to elastomeric copolymers of propylene with ethylene and/or 1-butene and optionally with at least one C5-12 alpha-olefin, and to a process for manufacturing them in gas phase. The process employs a catalyst obtained by contacting a support successively with an electron-donor containing labile hydrogen D2 and with an electron-donor D3 chosen from aromatic carboxylic esters, and then by impregnating and activating the support by two successive contactings with titanium tetrachloride, the said support consisting of 80 to 99 mol% of magnesium dichloride and of 1 to 20 mol% of an organic electron-donor D1 free from labile hydrogen. The process comprises a stage of prepolymerisation by contacting the catalyst with at least one C2-12 alpha-olefin, an external electron-donor D4 and a cocatalyst (A).

Abstract: A coin validator has a thickness sensor formed by two coils positioned one on each side of the coin path. The coil outputs are processed separately to derive values which, when combined, produce a thickness-indicating measurement which is independent of coin position. Each output may be processed to give values which are linearly dependent upon coin position with the same constant of proportionality. Alternatively, one output is scaled relative to the other to an extent dependent upon the thickness for which the coin is to be tested, so that the thickness-indicating measurement does not vary significantly over a region which corresponds to a likely maximum variation in the position of coins of that thickness.

Abstract: The pipe section (1, 1') has connecting elements at the ends for tension-resistant, detachable connection to corresponding other pipe sections. At one end, a collar (2) with projections (3) on the inside is provided as the connecting element. The other end has only recesses (5) on the outside of the pipe as the connecting element. If two pipe sections (1, 1') are pushed one inside the other, the projections (3) thus engage in the recesses (5) in a tension-resistant manner. In order to release the connection, one pipe section (1, 1') is slightly rotated with respect to the other, as a result of which the projections (3) are detached from the recesses (5) and the pipes can be pulled apart. The pipe section (1, 1') has no moving parts in this case. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention provides disk drive access control apparatus for connection between a host computer and a plurality of disk drives to provide an asynchronously operating storage system. It also provides increases in performance over earlier versions thereof. There are a plurality of disk drive controller channels connected to respective ones of the disk drives and controlling transfers of data to and from the disk drives, each of the disk drive controller channels includes a cache/buffer memory and a micro-processor unit. An interface and driver unit interfaces with the host computer and there is a central cache memory. Cache memory control logic controls transfers of data from the cache/buffer memory of the plurality of disk drive controller channels to the cache memory and from the cache memory to the cache/buffer memory of the plurality of disk drive controller channels and from the cache memory to the host computer through the interface and driver unit. A central processing unit manages the use of the cache memory by requesting data transfers only of data not presently in the cache memory and by sending high level commands to the disk drive controller channels. A first (data) bus interconnects the plurality of disk drive cache/buffer memories, the interface and driver unit, and the cache memory for the transfer of information therebetween and a second (information and commands) bus interconnects the same elements with the central processing unit for the transfer of control and information therebetween.

Abstract: A travelling bracket crane with a rigid jib or a jib which can be slewed in the horizontal plane is proposed, in each case of a smaller overall height and overall width in comparison with known cranes. The invention is distinguished in that all the cantilever moments acting in the vertical plane are introduced into the crane runway support or supports (1) via a vertical force couple by means of vertical or slanted crane running wheels (7, 10) arranged on the crane individually or in pairs, offset transversely with respect to the crane travelling direction. In this arrangement the crane running wheels (7, 10) are supported on the crane runway support or supports (1) or their projecting parts, on the one hand on the underside and on the other hand on the upper side. The cranes can be used with the same spatial relationships very diversely in different operating planes and immediately adjacent operating areas. In addition, retrofitting is possible, even in cases where hall dimensions are restricted. <IMAGE>
