Title: Piston assembly
Inventor: SANDERSON ROBERT A
IPC: F04B1/32
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: A hydraulic pump includes a housing, at least two pistons mounted to the housing to rotate relative to the housing, and a transition arm coupled to each of the pistons to rotate therewith. The transition arm is set at a predetermined angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the pump. An adjustment mechanism sets the transition arm at the predetermined angle. A cylinder is mounted within the housing to rotate relative to the housing and defines pump cavities for receiving the pistons. A face valve defines inlet and outlet channels in fluid communication with the pump cavities. An apparatus for varying the output volume of a piston assembly includes at least two pistons, a transition arm coupled to each of the at least two pistons, and a rotatable member. The transition arm includes a nose pin, and the rotatable member is coupled to the transition arm nose pin.

Title: Process for the purification of metals by fractional crystallisation
Inventor: RAYMOND-SERAILLE ANDRE
IPC: C22B21/06
Filed: 1986-12-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the purification of metals and in particular aluminium by fractional distillation. The process which comprises: (a) causing progressive solidification within a volume of liquid metal which is maintained in the vicinity of its melting point in an externally heated container by immersing therein an internally cooled body; (b) collecting at the bottom of the container all of the small crystals which are formed, (c) by compacting causing sintering of the small crystals to produce large crystals; and (d) separating the purified fraction consisting of large crystals from the liquid fraction which is enriched in respect of impurities, by tilting the container; is characterized in that, to increase the purification action, the container is maintained in its tilted position to drain off the purified fraction. The invention is used in particular in the purification of aluminium where it makes it possible for example directly to reduce the amount of iron from 800 to 1 ppm.
Patent AU-6766690-A (AU)
Title: An apparatus for measuring a mass stream
IPC: G01F1/80
Filed: 1990-11-30
Abstract: In one class of measuring devices, a rotary element, which is carried by a shaft, is driven at a constant speed of rotation and deflects the mass flow impinging axially on the rotary element radially, imparting to it in the process a tangential velocity component, is used for measuring a preferably heterogeneous mass flow. The torque dependent on the mass flow is measured at the shaft. For this purpose, a first spur gear attached to the shaft is provided, the said gear being in engagement with a second spur gear. The second spur gear is mounted in a carrier element which, for its part, is mounted to allow rotation about the axis of the shaft and is held firmly in its position by a force-sensing device. To improve the measuring sensitivity, the second spur gear has a second tooth engagement, opposite to the first spur gear, with an internally toothed gearing, which is likewise mounted to allow rotation about the axis of the shaft and is made to rotate by a driving pinion. A rotational body made to rotate in the same direction as the shaft is furthermore frictionally connected to the carrier element and/or the first spur gear. The strength of the hydrodynamic frictional engagement is adjusted so that the frictional torques of the first and second spur gear are compensated by the frictional torque of the frictional engagement.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/05114 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 29, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 29, 1998 PCT Filed Nov. 20, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/19821 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 5, 1997An optically variable surface pattern includes at least one graphic representation producing an achromatic impression when viewed in visible light over a certain angular range without noticeable color fringes occurring in the adjoining angular ranges. A plane surface portion includes a grating structure which disperses incident light with comparable intensity into a cone within a predetermined angle range regardless of differing wavelength. An overlap of several successive high orders of diffraction results in a recombination of the dispersed light to white light at any diffraction angle within the cone. The surface portion viewed from a direction within the cone reflects white light, in contrast to a simple flat mirror which has a very narrow range of specular reflection. At viewing angles outside the cone, the surface portion is dim or dark grey. The shape of the surface portion is then recognized as an area white lit or dark depending upon a particular viewing angle relative to incident light.

Title: Evaporation dispenser
Inventor: EHRENSPERGER MARKUS
IPC: A61L9/12
Filed: 1998-07-07
Abstract: The invention relates to an evaporation dispenser (1) for improving the air in enclosed spaces such as restrooms, bathrooms, and waiting rooms, telephone booths and elevators. According to the invention, a mounting plate (2) is arranged in a housing, said mounting plate being divided into two chambers by a horizontal dividing surface (30). The lower chamber (20) serves as an evaporation chamber and accommodates two bottles (21, 22) containing the active substance. A saturated atmosphere (A*) is formed in said lower chamber (20) by means of two evaporation elements (23, 24). Said atmosphere (A*) is then exchanged with the air outside (A) via a ventilator (3), as required. The inventive device functions almost noiselessly and provides an economical and hygienic means of preventing excessive fragrancing.
Patent AU-8011082-A (AU)
Title: Electrical switchgear
Inventor: PARRY JOHN
IPC: H01H33/18
Filed: 1982-02-02
Abstract: A first contact 10 has an end portion 16 which engages a second contact 17, 18 in a contacts closed position of the switchgear and which moves transversely across a pole face of a field coil 23 and inwardly of an axis 24 of the latter during movement of the contacts to an open position. The field coil 23 is electrically connected in series with an arcing electrode 22, and to which the second contact 17,18 is also connected. Upon movement of the contacts from their closed position to their open position, an arc is drawn between the end portion 16 of the first contact and a portion 18 of the second contact. Further movement of the contacts towards their open position causes the arc to transfer its root from the second contact portion 18 to the arcing electrode 22 so that an arcing current then flows through the field coil 23 to generate a magnetic field which causes the arc to rotate and become extinguished. Extinction of the arc is assisted by an electrically insulating fluid surrounding the switchgear. A principal arcing zone is defined by rotation of the arc, and the arc is disposed in this zone when it transfers its root from the second contact to the arcing electrode 22 so that it can rotate immediately under the influence of the magnetic field.
