Patent EP-0918980-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BOSE TAMAL
IPC: G01F1/84
Filed: 1997-08-12
Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé qui permet de mesurer la pression dans un débitmètre-masse à accélération de Coriolis en fonctionnement (10). Des vibrations sont provoquées dans les tuyaux d'écoulement du débitmètre (130, 130') tant en mode de flexion (procédure normale pour mesurer le débit massique) qu'en mode de torsion. Le rapport des fréquences fondamentales auxquelles les tuyaux d'écoulement vibrent dans chacun des deux modes vibrationnels est proportionnel à la pression à l'intérieur des tuyaux d'écoulement. Suivant la forme de réalisation préférée, une méthode de calcul des sommes et différences permet d'isoler au départ les sinusoïdes superposées représentant les fréquences fondamentales dans les deux modes vibrationnels. Des filtres numériques (512, 514) du gradient conjugué rapide sont ensuites utilisés pour effectuer une estimation rapide des fréquences fondamentales dans chacun des deux modes vibrationnels. Les fréquences estimées sont ensuite utilisées avec des chaînes de filtres, notamment des filtres numériques à coupure brusque (508, 518) et des filtres passe-bande (506, 1520), ainsi qu'avec des méthodes récursives du maximum de vraisemblance par filtre numérique (510, 522) pour améliorer les estimations des fréquences fondamentales en flexion et en torsion. Aux fins de calcul du débit massique, on utilise les estimations améliorées des fréquences fondamentales en flexion et en torsion pour mesurer la pression à l'intérieur des tuyaux d'écoulement en fonction du rapport des deux fréquences, ainsi que pour centrer les chaînes de filtres numériques à coupure brusque et de filtres passe-bande utilisées pour améliorer la fréquence en flexion des deux tuyaux de détection de vibrations. On peut ensuite utiliser la pression ainsi mesurée pour corriger le calcul du débit massique ou à d'autres fins en soi de mesurage de pression.

Abstract: An air-ride beam-type axle suspension system for tractor-trailers and other heavy-duty wheeled vehicles having a brake chamber of an air brake assembly mounted on the beam, wherein the beam is tapered. Specifically, each beam of the axle suspension system tapers from a narrower width at its end that is pivotally attached to a frame rail of the trailer, to a wider width at its opposite end. The tapered beam provides easier mounting of the suspension system on existing trailer frame rails and incorporation of a reduced-size pivot bushing at the narrower end of the beam, and optimizes the weight of the axle suspension system.

Abstract: Disclosed is an improved joint structure for hinging each temple
(T) to the lens (L), which joint structure facilitates the hinging
of the temple to the lens, still assuring that a pleasing resistance
can be retained in rotating the temple relative to the lens. The
joint piece structure comprises upper and lower sections (2a and

(T). The lower section (2b) is a solid disk having an elongated
round rod-like projection (2b 2 ) formed on one side. The solid disk
has a through hole (2b 1 ) made therein. The temple (T) can be
rotatably fixed to the eyewire (R) simply by: inserting the reduced
diameter (2a 2 ) of the upper section (2a) in the hole (T 1 ) of the
pivotal end of the temple (T); inserting the elongated round
projection (2b 2 ) of the lower section (2b) in the axial hole of
the upper section (2a); and inserting the parallel engagement pins

the transversely movable heat sealing disks (100)
compensate for variations in the shape of the load, thereby
providing improved welding of overlapping film layers.
