Patent EP-0235367-A3 (EP)
Title: Apparatus to be used in a process for the production of a synthesis gaz containing hydrogen and carbon monoxide
IPC: C01B3/02
Filed: 1986-11-22
Abstract: A device for manufacturing a product gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxide from a feedgas mixture comprised substantiallty of hydrocarbon, includes a vessel partitioned by a tubesheet into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. Reformer tubes are mounted on and extend through the tubesheet from the upper chamber into the lower chamber. Each reformer tube is laterally enclosed over at least a portion of its axial length downwardly from the tubesheet by a jacket spaced outwardly therefrom forming an annular space extending along each said tube for establishing communication between the upper the lower chambers, allowing the product gas to be withdrawn from the upper chamber. The tubesheet forms a distribution chamber for directing the feedgas mixture into the reformer tubes. The tubesheet is formed of an inner hollow body mounted within an outer hollow body, with the two hollow bodies being in flow communication. Due to the arrangement of the hollow bodies forming the tubesheet and the jackets forming the annular spaces, the problem of reducing the pressure and temperature differences across the tubesheet is effected while maintaining good over-all performance of the reaction vessel.

Abstract: Cryogenic process for the removal of acidic gases 
from natural gases or from synthesis gases essentially 
comprising the absorption in one or more towers in order

the solvents used being selected among low molecular 
weight esters, alcohols and ethers, characterized in that 
with the solvent or solvents the gas outcoming from one 
or more of the absorber towers is mixed once or more 
times, the mixtures thus formed being then cooled, the

Patent EP-0204457-A3 (EP)
IPC: H01J17/50
Filed: 1986-05-19
Abstract: A thyratron which enables reverse current 
conduction has an anode 7 and an adjacent anode grid 9 
which together enclose a volume 11. A potential 
difference is applied between the anode 7 and anode grid 
9 such that on forward conduction of the thyratron the 
charge density of plasma in the volume 11 is increased 
and when forward conduction of the thyratron stops, 
persists for some time in that space. On reverse 
conduction, the plasma contained within the volume 11 
acts as a cathodic medium.  
     In another mode plasma may be created in volume 11 
prior to the thyratron becoming conducting.

Title: Body rest with means for preventing pressure sores
IPC: A61G7/057
Filed: 1987-09-14
Abstract: A body rest such as a bed (10) with means incorporated for avoiding the development of pressure sores (decubitus ulcer) caused by prolonged local pressure against a patient's body. The bed (10) comprises: a matrix of freely vertical displaceable supports (22), in the form of free-floating, pressurized air-supported pistons (20), constituting together the continuous couch surface of the bed (10). The pressure exerted by the patient's body sections against their respective support pistons (20) is constantly measured. Valves (66, 134, 136) are provided associated with and controlling the discharge of the air from the piston chambers (19) under the pressure applied to each one of the respective support pistons (20). After a preset time and level of pressure prevailing within a given piston chamber (19), a fixed amount of air is discharged, thereby partly relieving the pressure and causing the downward displacement of the respective piston (20). At the end of the cycle, all the pistons (20) are brought back to their initial, common high level.

Patent EP-0354470-A3 (EP)
IPC: F16J15/34
Filed: 1989-08-03
Abstract: A double dam seal (42) in a reactor coolant pump (14) includes 
an internal mechanism in the seal to pressurize its 
annulus. In one form, the mechanism is an inclined flow 
passage (92) incorporated in the rotating runner (48) of the seal (42) 
having an outlet (94) in communication with the seal annulus (80) 
and an inlet (96) in communication with reactor coolant water 
flow within the pump housing (30) and being located on a 
smaller radius of rotation that the passage outlet (94). 
Rotation of the runner (48) causes rotational movement of the 
passage (92) and any water therein, turning the passage (92) and 
rotating runner (48) into a centrifugal pump, causing a 
pressure differential along the passage (92) due to 
centrifugal effects, and feeding water via the passage 
outlet (94) to the seal annulus (80) at a pressure above that at 
the passage inlet (96). In another form, the mechanism is a 
tube (104) projecting at an angle from the rotating runner (46), or 
a recessed scoop (106) defined in the runner (48) at an angle to, 
and communicating with a passage (98) having an inlet (102) and 
outlet (100) at generally the same radius of rotation. The 
tube (104) or scoop (106) are also at generally the same radius of 
rotation but extend upstream of the passage inlet (102). 
Rotational movement of the tube (104) or scoop (106) with the 
rotating runner (48) through the reactor coolant water in the 
seal housing (30) develops a pressure higher at the passage 
inlet (102) than outlet (100) which, in turn, is supplied by the 
passage (98) to the double dam seal annulus (42).

Title: Double door closure for an air bag deployment opening
IPC: B60R21/2165
Filed: 1989-10-13
Abstract: A double door closure for an air bag deployment opening 
(20) in which bridging portions (46) extend across a 
line of separation between the doors (14, 16) and are 
weakened to define a frangible seam (18) fractured by 
the pressure exerted by the inflating bag. The doors 
(14, 16) also each have an integral hinge flange formed 
along the opposite side from the frangible seam (18) 
and inward raised surfaces defining an area of contact 
with the air bag to exert maximum shearing stress along 
the line of separation. In a first embodiment, the 
doors (14, 16) are of one piece molded construction 
with the weakening of the bridging portion (46) created 
by a series of blind pockets molded in from the inside 
along the line of separation to create a hidden seam. 
In a second embodiment, the doors are constructed of a 
support layer and stiffening secured pieces together. 
In the second embodiment a decorative skin layer 
overlies the doors, and a piercing piece is driven by 
the air bag to penetrate the skin layer and initiate 
tearing.
