Abstract: It is the object of the invention to create a reliable secondary circuit connection and an auxiliary switch attachment for a withdrawable circuit-breaker with a movable main contact carrier, which does not effect the mounting height of the slide-in modules. 
<??>In accordance with the invention, this object is achieved when the secondary circuit connection consists of a socket connector (1), which can be lowered and raised and is arranged on the side wall (3) of the slide-in module carrier, a push-on terminal strip (2), which corresponds to said socket connector and is fastened rigidly to the withdrawable unit (4), and a lever mechanism (5, 6, 11, 12) for the purpose of lowering, raising or holding still the socket connector (1) as a function of the operating positions OFF-TEST-ON of the withdrawable unit (4), and the auxiliary switches are accommodated in a housing fastened to the slide-in module carrier and are controlled via a slide, which is pivoted to the movable main contact carrier.

Abstract: Boiler feed water requires de-oxygenating to remove the dissolved oxygen from eg saturation levels of 9 to 10 ppm to practically zero before use in the boiler. The present invention provides a method of de-oxygenating water by bubbling nitrogen gas (9) through the water to scavenge the dissolved oxygen therein. 
     Preferably the method is performed at ambient temperature thus readily permitting the use of condensing economisers upstream of the boiler(s).

Abstract: The contact set has a contact bolt (2) and a cupped contact carrier (3) supporting a contact disc (5) for each axially opposing contact. The contact disc is supported by the peripheral edge of the contact carrier (3) with mechanical stabilisation of its central zone provided by props (6) of an electrically weak conducting material. The props cooperate to define a support ring and lie along an arc with a dia equal to, or less than, the dia (d) of the contact bolt (2).

The wall of the contact carrier incorporates slits (4) extending at an angle to the contact axis for providing windings.
Patent EP-0413857-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SECHRIST PAUL A
IPC: B01J38/24
Filed: 1989-08-21
Abstract: Coke-contaminated catalyst particles are regenerated in a manner that achieves better utilization of oxygen and minimizes surface area loss of the catalyst by confining particles in the combustion section of a regeneration zone to a vertically elongated and tapered bed configuration. When catalyst particles move through such a regeneration zone in continuous or semi-continuous flow and simultaneously an oxygen-containing gas is passed through the particle bed in a transverse direction, combustion of the coke deposits takes place along a burn front that extends diagonally through the catalyst bed from the inlet surface of the bed to the outlet surface of the bed. Because the catalyst bed is tapered to reduce the volume of catalyst particles behind the burn wave, gas flow through the upper portion of the bed is increased and exposure of unregenerated catalyst to detrimental high temperature flue gas flowing across the bed from the burn front is minimized.

IPC: H03M1/06
Filed: 1989-06-27
Abstract: The invention relates to an analog-digital converter having a structure with several identical cascaded stages each converting a group of p bits in decreasing significance order. Each stage comprises a partial analog-digital converter (PADC) receiving an input signal Si and delivering p bits, a partial digital-analog converter (PDAC) re-converting these p bits into an analog signal, a subtractor (D) taking the difference between the input signal and the p re-converted bits, and an amplifier (AP) with gain 2<p> to rescale the difference signal with a view to conversion of this difference in a following stage identical to the first. According to the invention, in order to take account of the error on the gain 2<p> due to the fact that the amplifier AP is constructed from an operational amplifier with finite gain G and not infinite gain, there is provision for the reference voltage Vi used for the conversion in a stage to be equal to the reference voltage of the preceding stage, modified by a correction coefficient exactly equal to the error introduced. A calibration amplifier using an operational amplifier with the same finite gain G enables automatic establishing of the reference voltage of a stage from that of the preceding stage.   <IMAGE>

Title: Dispositif de mesure pour la determination d'un angle de rotation
Inventor: ZIEHER PETER
IPC: G01D5/22
Filed: 1989-04-14
Abstract: Dans un dispositif de mesure servant à déterminer un angle de rotation, il est prévu, sur la paroi interne d'un support (10) en un matériau électriquement non conducteur, quatre bobines (11 à 14) qui coopèrent avec une pièce conductrice (20) présentant des zones (21, 22) en un matériau électriquement conducteur. La pièce conductrice (20) est réalisée de manière à former une image inversée et présente deux zones (21, 22) qui sont plus grandes que l'une des bobines (11 à 14). Lorsque la zone de recouvrement entre la zone (21, 22) et l'une des bobines (11 à 14) est réduite, elle augmente de la même valeur dans la bobine suivante. Du fait du câblage et de la disposition mutuelle des bobines, des erreurs peuvent être éliminées par compensation du jeu radial.

Abstract: A polyethylene terephthalate (PET) body for a food container has open ends and is made by stretch blow moulding a hollow elongate preform of heat-softened PET. The axial elongation and radial expansion of the preform which occurs in the formation of the body are initiated at a sole initiation site which is located at one end of the preform. From there the elongation and expansion are propagated progressively along the preform until substantially the whole preform has been elongated and expanded. The position of the initiation site is determined by profiling the temperature of the preform along its length by use of a specially designed oven, initiation occurring where the preform temperature is highest.

Abstract: La nécessité de conserver des tissus non fixés est une difficulté majeure dans l'immunocytochimie et le diagnostic de maladies inflammatoires. Grâce à un milieu nouveau de transport sous gel, il est possible de conserver des biopsies de peau non fixées de patients ayant des dermatites de contact pendant une semaine avant de les congeler ou d'effectuer une immunocytochimie à la recherche d'antigènes de leukocyte. Ledit milieu présente une amélioration subjective considérable de morphologie et de qualité de coloration, dues, semble-t-il, à une meilleure coupe des sections et un fond réduit de coloration au collagène. Ledit milieu de transport permet d'emmener les tissus à un endroit qui est éloigné du laboratoire de pathologie pour les soumettre à une analyse immunohistochimique.
