Title: Circuit breaker with solid-state trip unit with a digital processing system shunted by an analog processing system
Inventor: DEMEYER PIERRE
IPC: H02H3/093
Filed: 1986-02-18
Abstract: Solid-state trip unit having a unit (29, 50, 48) for digital processing of signals emitted by current sensors (16). The digital processing system provides the long delay, short delay and instantaneous tripping functions and delivers a tripping order to the relay (14). An analog processing unit (70) is connected parallel with the digital processing unit to transmit an instantaneous tripping order to the relay (14). When the digital processing unit operates, the analog unit pick-up level is higher than the digital instantaneous tripping pick-up and this pick-up is reduced to a lower or equal value, if the digital unit is inactive.

Title: Production of a metal-plastic film laminate the metal-plastic film laminate and use thereof for manufacturing packaging containers
Inventor: KIRIAZIS LEONIDAS
IPC: B32B15/08
Filed: 1993-05-27
Abstract: A process is disclosed for producing a metal-plastic film composite material by sheet die extrusion of a statistical polypropylene copolymer into a plastic film. After leaving the sheet die, the polypropylene is cooled by means of cooling cylinders and the plastic film thus obtained is laminated onto at least one of the main surfaces of a metal sheet. The process is characterized in that the polypropylene copolymer is directly cooled after leaving the sheet die of the extruder down to temperatures between 0 C and 15 C. Once the plastic film has been laminated onto the metal sheet by means of a solvent-containing or aqueous adhesive, the metal-plastic film composite material thus obtained is cooled down to temperatures from 0 C to 25 C, when the film is laminated onto the metal sheet at temperatures above the melting point of the polypropylene copolymer, or when the plastic film is laminated onto the metal sheet by means of a coextruded bonding agent the metal-plastic film composite material thus obtained is cooled down to temperatures from 0 C to 25 C. Also disclosed is a metal-plastic film composite material produced according to this process and its use for producing packaging containers.

Patent CH-624819-B (CH)
Inventor: BANDI FRED
IPC: G04G13/00
Filed: 1977-08-23
Abstract: With a view to simplifying the electromechanical construction whilst ensuring synchronisation between the electrical device for the chiming hours and the position of the manually movable hands, a multi-contact rotary device (14, 15, 17) recognises the positions of the hour hand (11a), at the full hours on the one hand and at the intermediate positions on the other. All the intermediate positions are set up identically to one of the full hour positions, and control-contact means (4-9) are arranged not only in order to accurately set up the instant of chiming, but in order to distinguish appropriately the fraction of an hour positions and the hour positions set up identically, within the electrical information delivered by the rotary device (14, 15, 17) and processed by electronic means in order to cause a loudspeaker (16) to deliver an appropriate and pleasant clock chime, possibly being in particular of the "Westminster" type or also being able to pick out the various types of chime through various vibratos. Such an electronic clock is advantageously produced with the aid of a customary electrical movement without chime, to which only a minimum of electromechanical and electronic equipment has to be added. <IMAGE>

Title: Motor drive system for reducing energy consumption of an electronic timepiece
IPC: H02P8/02
Filed: 1979-06-13
Granted: 1982-12-22
Abstract: Reduces the consumption of an electronic time piece equipped with a motor 4 driving a display unit 5. A quartz oscillator 1 feeds a supply circuit 3 through a frequency divider 2. The supply circuit 3 of the motor and its control circuit 9 periodically decrease the pulse energy supplied to the motor in response to a reference signal 8.2 provided by a reference counter say every 60 seconds. The energy then supplied to the motor is regulated as a function of the presence or absence of a signal delivered by a detection switch 7 operated by the display unit. If the detection switch does not close, compensating pulses are fed to the motor to catch up the lost seconds and the pulse energy is stepped up.

Title: Liquid metal processing
Inventor: HENDERSON STEVEN
IPC: B22D11/10
Filed: 1989-02-03
Granted: 1991-10-16
Abstract: A method of removing heat from molten metal in which the metal is caused to flow freely within a gaseous media or vacuum over a body disposed within the metal stream such that any tendency for the metal to solidify during its passage is effective on the surface of said body against which the solidifying metal contracts into intimate contact herewith. The body may be forcibly cooled e.g. by water. In accordance with this invention since the liquid metal is not enveloped by a channel (7) or pipe the solidifying shell tends to shrink on to the body, no gap is created as hitherto and accordingly much higher heat transfer coefficients between the shell, and thus the liquid metal, and the cooling body are achieved.

Title: A plastic intake pipe and a method for forming same
Inventor: MUKAWA TATSUHIKO
IPC: B29C49/04
Filed: 1993-02-03
Granted: 1995-09-06
Abstract: A plastic intake pipe for an internal combustion engine, has an inside pipe provided in the plastic intake pipe and formed integrally from the intake duct portion to the intake manifold portion, a supporting member inserted in the inside pipe for supporting an inside wall of the inside pipe for fixing the intake duct portion and the intake chamber, and an outside pipe for entirely covering the inside pipe. The intake pipe prevents itself from deforming and damaging while assembling in the internal combustion engine and provides a simple structure for handling. A method of producing the plastic intake pipe forms integrally an inside pipe of the intake pipe body having an intake duct portion, an intake chamber portion connected to a downstream side of the intake duct portion, and an intake manifold portion connected to a downstream side of the intake chamber portion, then fixes at least the intake chamber and the intake duct portion of the inside pipe by a supporting member, thereafter inserts the inside pipe in a cavity mold, and forms an outside pipe on the outer periphery of the inside pipe by injection-molding the plastic material in the mold. Hence production and handling are easy, and an intake noise can be reduced.

Patent HU-219120-B (HU)
Title: Package for storing and dispensing potentially dangerous material
Inventor: THOMAS JOHN HALL
IPC: B65D50/08
Filed: 1995-05-03
Abstract: A package suitable for storing and dispensing potentially dangerous material, which is resistant to opening by children yet readily openable by adults. The package is preferably a bottle which has a body and a finish portion. The finish portion has a threaded outer end for mating with a closure. A resiliently deformable cantilevered beam is connected to the finish portion between the threaded outer end and the body of the bottle. The beam is angled outward and downward from the finish portion. The beam has a substantially vertical locking surface and a pushtab spaced along the beam. The angle of the beam is such that the pushtab may be depressed substantially radially toward the finish portion. The locking surface is located between the finish portion and the pushtab so that depression of the pushtab results in a greater beam deflection and lower deflection force at the pushtab than at the locking surface. A bottle closure has threads for rotatably securing the closure to the finish portion of the bottle. The closure also has a tooth projecting radially inward from its lower inner surface and so shaped and positioned that it will engage the locking surface of the resilient beam whenever there is an attempt to unscrew the closure. It thereby prevents removal of the closure until the pushtab is manually depressed to disengage the closure tooth from the locking surface of the cantilevered beam.
