Patent FR-2124330-B1 (FR)
IPC: C02F1/24
Filed: 1972-02-01
Granted: 1977-12-23
Abstract: In the purification of liquids by flotation, a mixture of gas and liquid is subjected to sufficient pressure for the gas to dissolve in the liquid and form a solution of the gas and the liquid. The solution of gas and liquid without any substantial change in pressure is introduced at a low velocity to the body of polluted liquid in a flotation tank. Initially no gas bubbles are formed. As the solution rises slowly in the tank and it is subjected to a gradually lower pressure, gas bubbles are formed in a gentle manner. Due to the slow rate at which this takes place the gas bubbles will be very small. Since a great quantity of gas is dissolved in the liquid, a large quantity of gas bubbles will be formed. All of these factors contribute to an effective purification of polluted liquids by flotation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a quasi-optical frequency diplexer capable of operating over a wide angle of scan and separating microwave signals possessing proximate center frequencies. The present invention, which in one aspect may be employed with a phased array antenna arrangement functioning so as to separate the transmit and receive frequencies associated therewith, consists of an array of waveguide sections (22) where the input and output ports (30, 32) of the array are tilted with respect to the array's longitudinal axis. The angles of tilt and the dimensions of the waveguide sections may be adjusted so as to achieve frequency diplexing with a minimal amount of interference between the diplexed signals.

Abstract: Ultrasonic radiation is emitted by the transducer to be checked (10) and is received, after passing through a medium (12) transparent to ultrasound, by an array of detectors (18) each of which supplies an electrical signal representing the amplitude of the ultrasonic wave incident on the detector. The electrical signals supplied by the detectors are processed so as to produce an image of the distribution of the amplitudes of the ultrasonic wave incident on the various detectors. A visualisation device (60) displays this image, which represents the spatial distribution of the transmitted wave. The transducers can be rapidly and easily checked by comparing two sets of readings made at different times.
