Abstract: The present invention relates to a supported catalyst containing titanium, its preparation and it use in the homo-, co-, and ter-polymerization of olefin-unsaturated compounds. The present invention also relates to a catalytic system comprising a supported catalyst based on titanium and a co-catalyst selected from organo-derivatives of aluminum. More specifically, the present invention relates to catalyst supported on silica, obtained by reacting a titanium halocarboxylate and a magnesium halocarboxylate with an aluminum chloroakylderivative, in the presence of a carrier consisting of high porosity silica. The above reaction essentially takes place in the pores of the silica itself.

Abstract: A window regulator (1) comprises a flange member (4b)
formed on a main arm (4) so as to surround a hole (4a) penetrating
the main arm and project from one side of the main arm, and a
shaft section (5a) formed on a first sub-arm (5) so as to project
toward a second sub-arm (6), being in a sliding contact with
an inner surface of the flange member corresponding to the hole,
and secured to the second-sub arm. In this configuration, a
distal edge portion (4c) of the flange member is formed with
a curved surface toward the first sub-arm, thereby reducing a
frictional resistance between the main arm and the first sub-arm.
Thus, the window regulator can avoid an unusual noise caused
during the respective rotations between the main arm and the
first sub-arm, and ensures the rigidity of the first sub-arm.

Abstract: A vehicle control device incorporating an electric power steering is provided, wherein an extraordinary yaw motion acting on a vehicle is detected and is suppressed or moderated, so that the stability of the vehicle in a straight-ahead steering is improved. The causes of the extraordinary yaw motion are one of lateral wind, asymmetrical surface state of the road, lateral slant of the road and the like. A countermeasure against the extraordinary yaw motion is taken by applying a counter (opposite direction) yaw motion on the vehicle or switching over the control mode from a proportional control to a proportional integral control. <IMAGE>

IPC: F17C5/00
Filed: 2000-10-06
Abstract: Refrigeration process for gas liquefaction which utilizes one or more vaporizing
refrigerant cycles to provide refrigeration below about -40°C and a gas expander cycle to
provide refrigeration below about -100°C. Each of these two types of refrigerant
systems is utilized in an optimum temperature range which maximizes the efficiency of
the particular system. A significant fraction of the total refrigeration power required to
liquefy the feed gas (typically more than 5% and often more than 10% of the total) can
be consumed by the vaporizing refrigerant cycles. The invention can be implemented in
the design of a new liquefaction plant or can be utilized as a retrofit or expansion of an
existing plant by adding gas expander refrigeration circuit to the existing plant
refrigeration system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for positioning a substrate (101) on a transport section (100) that comprises a conveyer belt (302). According to the invention, the position of the transported substrate (101) is determined by means of a photoelectric barrier, which detects the front edge of the substrate (101), viewed from the direction of transport (102). The detection area (105) of the photoelectric barrier extends to just under the bearing level (701) of the substrate (101) on the conveyer belt (302). This allows the front edge of the substrate to be detected even if the latter lies below the bearing level (701), for example as a result of flexure. The conveyer belt (302) is guided in a loop around the detection area (105) of the photoelectric barrier, in such a way that said detection area (105) can extend transversally over the entire transport section (100). The invention is characterised in that it also uses a sensor element (106), which is mounted on the transport section (100) upstream of the photoelectric barrier and is likewise used to detect the front edge of the substrate (101) to be positioned. This permits a particularly gentle deceleration of the substrate (101) that is displaced along the transport section (100).
