Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE   With a vertical electric synchronous machine of large diameter a sliding intermediate layer consisting of a plurality of sub-layers is dis-posed between a supporting beam and a segmental ring on each bearing surface of the supporting beams carrying the segmental ring which for their part are secured to the hub body.  The sliding intermediate layer contains in the centre two sheets, sliding one above the other, of high mechanical strength, a dry lubricant with a low co-efficient of friction being fixed to the surfaces facing one another.  One or a plurality of deformable sheets made of a mater-ial whose yield point lies clearly below the surface pressures occurring on the bearing surfaces are disposed on both outer  sides of this sheet pair. These soft sheets even out tolerances of the bearing surfaces through deforma-tion.  In addition, a low co-efficient of friction for the relative motion between the segmental ring and the supporting beam is guaranteed by the sheet pair with the dry lubricant.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T     A vortex cleaner for separating fibre-liquid-suspensions, and in particular paper-pulp suspensions, into fractions, comprises an elongate vortex chamber (1) of circular cross-section, which over a part (3) of its length tapers towards its one end. At the wider end of the chamber there is provided a substantially tangentially directed inlet (4) for the suspension to be treated, and an axially directed outlet (6) for a lighter fraction of the treated suspension. At the narrower end of the chamber there is provided a second, axially directed outlet (7) for a heavier fraction of the treated suspension. The chamber is provided, within its narrowing part (3), with a plurality of baffles (9) which project radially  into the chamber from the inner surface of the chamber wall, and which are inclined relative to the axial direction of the chamber substantially in concordance with the helical flow of suspension fed through the tangential inlet (7) and passing nearest the chamber wall towards the narrower end of the chamber, These baffles are mutually spaced apart when seen in both the axial and peripheral direction, in a manner such that the upstream end of a given baffle is located at a peripheral and/or axial distance from and downstream of the downstream end of the immediately pre-ceding baffle. In this way, the baffles ensure that the? heavier fraction is discharged through the reject outlet (7) at the narrower end of the chamber, so as to obviate the risk of the vortex cleaner being blocked, without impairing the fractionating process in the vortex cleaner at the same time.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE        There is disclosed a new process for the conversion of the organic components of sludge, particularly sewage sludge, to produce useful, storable, energy-containing oil products, apparatus for carrying out the process and a control process for optimisation of the process temperature.  The sludge preferably is mechanically dewatered to about 20-25% solids by weight and thermally dried to about 90% solids by weight.  The resultant material is comminuted and heated in the apparatus of the invention to at least 250°C in a heating zone in the absence of oxygen to generate a gaseous atmosphere containing volatiles; this atmosphere is then removed, scrubbed of H2S and NH3 if required, and passed preferably in countercurrent flow in a heated reaction zone in intimate contact with the "devolatilized" sludge solids from the heating zone, again in the absence of oxygen, at a temperature of at least 280°C, resulting in catalysed vapour phase oil-producing reactions.          The oil vapours are carried out by the gas flow and condensed.          The preferred apparatus moves the sludge solids cocurrent with the heating zone atmosphere and countercurrent with the reaction zone atmosphere.  In the heating zone a screw conveyor may be employed, while in the reaction zone the conveyor not only moves the comminuted sludge along but lifts it and drops it through the respective gaseous atmosphere for the required intimate contact.  Preferably the sludge is examined repeatedly by differential scanning calorimetry to generate a thermogram which has been found to reveal immediately the optimum temperature for operation of the reaction zone, and also the anticipated oil yield from the sludge.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE         A sensor or transducer having a dual path opti-cal fiber, such as a single mode, two polarization state, waveguide fiber, utilizes the relative change in propaga-tion constant of the paths to sense and transduce an applied force to an interference variation and ultimately an electrical signal.  In this arrangement, in-phase light is introduced to both polarized states or paths in the fiber and transmitted therealong past a stress area of birefringement inducing force and ultimately combined, thereby producing in the combined beam a variation in interference which is related to the applied force.          Specific structures are provided for converting isotropic forces such as pressure and temperature to anisotropic forces on the fiber to thereby produce birefringement and to also magnify the latter effect.

Abstract: A dry soft canine biscuit having visually apparent, discrete particles, which contain (i) meat and/or meat by-product and optionally (ii) farinaceous material and/or textured vegetable protein, distributed substantially uniformly throughout the biscuit. The dog biscuit is obtained by blending the non-fat solids portion of a soft biscuit dough with particles which are substantially inert with respect to the biscuit dough, mixing the dry-blended mixture with water plus optional humectant to form an intermediate stage dough, admixing the latter with the fat portion of the biscuit dough to form a final dough, forming the final dough using low shear into pieces, and baking and drying the formed pieces to obtain a microbiologically stable product which can be packaged without a barrier material. The particle inertness is made possible by using particles having: (1) a moisture content of 35 percent by weight or less; and (2) a water activity which is less than the water activity of the soft biscuit dough. There is a substantial absence of particle color bleed into the biscuit. An example of the textured vegetable protein is textured soy protein; and an example of the farinaceous material is wheat. The discrete, visually apparent dehydrated meat particles enhance the palatability and visual attractiveness of the dry biscuit.

Abstract: A METHOD FOR OPERATING A PACKET BUS FOR TRANSMISSION OF ASYNCHRONOUS AND PSEUDO-SYNCHRONOUS SIGNALS          Abstract  of the Disclosure Data transactions and voice communications are facilitated in a packet switching system including a group of ports each of which is capable of exchanging inter-destined and intra-destined information signals via a packet bus. The packet bus is operated under the direction of a bus controller which communicates with the ports to arbitrate access to the packet bus for packet transmission.  Arbitrating access to the packet bus for pseudo-synchronous and asynchronous signal communications includes the steps of polling the ports within a period of time for high and low priority, transmission requirements.  In response to each high priority requirement transmission over a predetermined number of consecutive bus cycles is granted by the bus controller within a predetermined period of time for pseudo-synchronous transmission of signals from each of the corresponding ports one after another.  In response to each lower priority requirement, transmission over an indefinite number of consecutive bus cycles is granted by the bus controller for asynchronous transmission of signals from at least one of the corresponding ports.  The preceding steps are repeated with a frequency such that high priority grants occur at a uniform rate that is consistent with a sampling rate of digitized voice communications being divided by one less than the predetermined number of consecutive bus cycles.                             - i -

Abstract: THREE STAGE VALVE              Abstract of the Disclosure An implantable valve for allowing the passage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from a ventricle of the brain to a suitable drainage location in the body includes a movable diaphragm, one side of which is in pressure communication with the drainage location of the body and the other side of which is in pressure communication with the ventricular spaces of the brain.  A valve assembly, actuable by displacement of the diaphragm in response to a pressure differential applied thereto, regulates passage of CSF from the ventricular spaces to the drainage location.  When differential pressure is relatively small, the valve is actuated to a constant pressure mode in which a predetermined differential pressure across the valve is maintained.  In response to a sudden increase in differential pressure, the valve mechanism is actuated to a constant flow mode in which a desired relatively constant rate of fluid flow is maintained.  Above a predetermined pressure differential, the valve is actuated once again to a constant pressure mode in which differential pressure above a predetermined maximum is prevented.
