Abstract: A liquid electrolyte battery (10) comprises a number of electrolytic cells (12), an inlet port (22) extending into a first electrolytic cell (12-1), an electrolyte transport channel (30) residing within each electrolytic cell, a number of carry-over passages (40) hydraulically connecting adjacent electrolytic cells, an outlet port (50) extending from a last electrolytic cell (12-4), and a pump (58) for introducing an electrolyte solution or air into the electrolytic cells. The battery electrolyte is replenished by introducing an electrolyte solution (14) into the first electrolytic cell, causing the electrolyte level to rise and be hydraulically transported through the carry-over passages to fill each electrolytic cell. The electrolyte exiting the last electrolytic cell is collected and reintroduced back into the first electrolytic cell and circulated throughout the battery. The electrolyte exiting the battery may be collected in an electrolyte reservoir (72) and circulated through a temperature management device (78) to ensure a battery temperature within design parameters. The electrolyte level in each electrolytic cell is adjusted to a predetermined level by introducing air into the battery causing the hydraulic transport of an electrolyte volume residing above an inlet end (54) of the outlet port through the outlet port in the last electrolytic cell, and the electrolyte volume above an inlet end (42) of the carry-over passage through the carry-over passage in each other electrolytic cell. The air exiting the last electrolyte cell may be vented or treated for the removal of hazardous gases.

Patent CA-2183806-A1 (CA)
Title: Chlorine dioxide generating process
Inventor: LIPSZTAJN MAREK
IPC: C01B11/02
Filed: 1996-08-21
Abstract: Chlorine dioxide is produced by reaction of sodium chlorate, a reducing agent, preferably methanol or hydrogen peroxide, and sulfuric acid at the boiling point of the reaction medium under a subatmospheric pressure. Present in the reaction medium is a component which suppresses the solubility of by-product sodium sulfate and thereby increases the concentration of free hydrogen ions in the reaction medium available for reaction to form chlorine dioxide. The solubility-depressing component generally is an inert alkali metal salt, preferably an inert sodium salt, such as perchlorate or nitrate. By increasing the concentration of hydrogen ions available for reaction, it is possible to achieve an improvement in the rate of production of chlorine dioxide.

Title: Switching power supply regulator
Inventor: HELFRICH KENNETH JAY
IPC: H02M3/335
Filed: 1996-09-26
Abstract: A horizontal deflection circuit inductively couples pulses from a first winding of a transformer to a second winding of the transformer. The second winding is coupled to a source of unregulated DC voltage. A switch operates with a variable duty cycle, supplying a regulated DC voltage to the first winding. An inductor and a diode have a common junction coupled to the second winding. The inductor couples the unregulated DC voltage to the switch. A pulse width modulator varies the duty circle of the switch responsive to a feedback signal. First and second capacitors supply drive voltage to the switch. The first capacitor is charged by the unregulated DC voltage during retrace, and at the end of retrace, charges the second capacitor. The pulse width modulator discharges the second capacitor.

Title: Fault detection and exclusion method for navigation satellite receivers
Inventor: BRAISTED PAUL E
IPC: G01S1/00
Filed: 1996-12-06
Abstract: In a GPS navigation satellite receiver, a pseudorange step detection method integrates the pseudorange rates to predict expected changes in the pseudoranges from one measurement to the next. The pseudorange rate is directly measured as the carrier Doppler shift. The pseudorange and pseudorange rate from a last measurement from each satellite and a pseudorange rate from a new measurement are used to estimate the expected pseudorange. Such estimate accounts for vehicle velocity and accelerations. The expected pseudorange is compared to a newly measured pseudorange. An impermissible pseudorange step is declared when the difference exceeds a variable threshold. Tests can be done on measurements taken up to ten seconds apart, e.g., using a threshold of five hundred meters. The maximum position dilution of precision is typically set at a value of twelve. Satellites that manifest a pseudorange step are thereafter excluded from participating in subsequent position solution activity.
