Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/03601 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 14, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 14, 1995 PCT Filed Dec. 17, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/16054 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 21, 1994A continuous process of producing beer is described. Starch-containing raw materials are disintegrated and are optionally processed to form malt, a wort is produced from the disintegrated and optionally malted raw materials, and the wort is subjected to alcoholic fermentation. In that process all process steps are performed continuously. The mash is initially heated in a reactor system to a temperature of 75 DEG  to 85 DEG  C. The grain residue is removed from the mash. The wort is subsequently hopped and is heated to a temperature from 105 DEG  to 140 DEG  C. This is succeeded by a flash evaporation, a removal of the dregs and a cooling of the wort, which is subsequently fermented at 6 DEG  to 25 DEG  in the presence of a biocatalyst. The fermenting process may be succeeded by a partial or full continuous de-alcoholization of the beer.

Title: Apparatus for converting simultaneous x and y amplitude modulated  signals into a form suitable for recording
IPC: G11B5/00
Filed: 1972-01-12
Abstract: 1373829 Gamma camera output recording system NUCLEAR ENTERPRISES Ltd 12 Jan 1972 1458/72 Heading H4F In an arrangement for tape recording signals which are to be displayed on a cathode-ray tube, and particularly for recording gamma radiation as viewed by a gamma camera, the signals are converted into pulse duration modulation for recording and the modulator is provided with a switch for altering its amplitudeto-duration characteristic as by connecting in an additional storage capacitor. The characteristics of the co-operating pulse duration demodulator circuit may be altered in a similar manner. Depending on the type of collimator used with the camera, the signals produced are (a) frequent but inaccurate or (b) infrequent but accurate and the modulator switching enables either type to be accommodated. Whenever a gamma photon is detected by the camera the  following four signals are produced simultaneously. An X pulse whose amplitude represents one co-ordinate and which is fed to the X deflection plates of the cathode-ray tube, a Y pulse relating to another co-ordinate but otherwise  similar to the X pulse, a Z pulse which is a logic signal determining whether or not the tube should brighten up and an isotope or I pulse which indicates radiations from different isotopes. When a Z pulse is received it is recorded on a video tape recorder as an inverted low level pulse referred to as the "word flag", since it announces the beginning of a word. As the word flag is recorded, two sample-and-hold circuits hold the respective X and Y amplitude values and these values are converted to corresponding durations and recorded sequentially after the word flag WF, Fig. 13 (not shown). This is followed by the isotope signal I in the form of binary 1 or 0. A field sync. pulse is transmitted every 20 milliseconds and is recorded as an inverted low level pulse FS, Fig. 14 (not shown), and this inhibits the recording of the Z input for a period of 2 milliseconds to ensure that the sync. pulse is not superimposed on any other signal and that no signals are recorded during the tape-head changeover period.

Patent GB-137864-A (GB)
Title: An improved valve apparatus for compressed air brakes
IPC: B60T15/42
Filed: 1920-01-16
Abstract: 137,864. Dubois, R. May 28, 1914, [Convention date]. Fluid-pressure; testing.-A train-pipe venting valve, constructed to operate only when fitted to the last vehicle of a train to enable the driver to test the continuity of the train-pipe, but operating also to apply the brakes, is adapted to open when the train-pipe pressure falls to a predetermined value and to reclose when this pressure has fallen to a predetermined lower value. The train-pipe is connected to the chamber 40 the outlet of which to the atmosphere is controlled both by a slide valve 3 and a lift-valve 2. When the device is mounted by the casing 8 on the coupling-hook 9 of the rear vehicle, a lever 4 is forced back to hold the valve 2 open. A piston 16, subject on its upper side to the train-pipe pressure and on its under side normally to the pressure of two springs 21, 22, has a finger 14 pivoted to it. The finger 14 is normally held in the position shown, ready for engagement with the stem 19 of the slide valve 3, by a spring 18 acting upon an arm of the finger. Assuming the running pressure to be 5 kg., the valve may be arranged to be insensitive to pressures between this and, for example, 3 kg. sufficient for normal application of the brakes. When the train-pipe pressure falls below 3 kg., the springs 21, 22 move the piston 16 upwardly until the cap 23 of the spring 21 abuts against the cylinder wall 25 and the valve 3 is moved by the finger 14 to uncover the port 27. The valve remains in this position until the pressure falls to, say, 1 kg. when the spring 22 is able to move the piston farther to contact its arm with the cylinder wall 20 whereupon the finger 14 is disengaged from the valve stem 19 and permits the spring 13 to return the valve 3 to the closed position. A restricted extension 28 of the port of the valve 3 prevents the valve from becoming completely closed unless the disengagement of the finger 14 is properly effective. To test the brakes, the driver applies the brakes slightly so as to disconnect the auxiliary reservoir from the train-pipe, and then allows the pressure to fall slowly. If there is no break in the train-pipe, the pressure on reaching 3 kg. will fall rapidly to 1 kg. The valve will also operate to increase the train-pipe pressure reduction in making full applications of the brakes and to apply the brakes automatically in the event of a slow fall of pressure.

Title: Improved method of producing anthraquinone-sulphonic acids
Filed: 1922-01-18
Abstract: The anthraquinone-a  : b  disulphonic acids or their salts, such as are obtained as by-products in the sulphonation of anthraquinone in the presence of mercury, yield anthraquinone or its 2-sulphonic acid on hydrolysis with sulphuric acid of about 80 per cent strength at a high temperature.  According to an example anthraquinone is sulphonated with oleum in presence of mercurous sulphate, the anthraquinone-a -monosulphonic acid separated as potassium salt, and the a  : b -disulphonic acids in the filtrate isolated by evaporation or salting out; the a -monosulphonic acid may also be isolated by slightly diluting the sulphonation mixture and cooling; the disulphonic acids are then heated with sulphuric acid of 80 per cent strength and mercurous sulphate at 180 DEG  C. and the anthraquinone and b -monosulphonic acid separated by pouring into water and salting out.  In a second example anthraquinone is sulphonated as before, but until no anthraquinone or monosulphonic acid remains, and the 1 : 5 disulphonic acid isolated by diluting the acid to about 80 per cent strength; by further dilution of the acid to 50 per cent strength the 1 : 8-disulphonic acid separates, or the filtrate may be directly heated as before with more mercurous sulphate for production of anthraquinone and the b -monosulphonic acid; alternatively the a  : a disulphonic acids may be salted out with 7 per cent brine, and then with stronger brine the a  : b -disulphonic acids; the latter are hydrolysed as before.
