Granted: 2009-02-03
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de production de clinker de ciment. Selon ce procédé, de la farine crue de ciment est préchauffée dans un préchauffeur (1), calcinée dans un calcinateur (3) comprenant une extrémité supérieure (3a) et une extrémité inférieure (3b), brûlée dans un four (5), d'où l'obtention d'un clinker, puis refroidie dans un refroidisseur de clinker (7). L'invention se caractérise en ce que les gaz d'échappement provenant du four (5) sont introduits dans l'extrémité supérieure (3a) du calcinateur, le combustible étant lui aussi introduit dans l'extrémité supérieure (3a) dudit calcinateur. De plus, la suspension de gaz d'échappement/combustible est dirigée vers le bas par l'intermédiaire du calcinateur (3). L'air préchauffé issu du refroidisseur de clinker (7) et la farine crue de ciment préchauffée issue du préchauffeur (1) sont acheminés, en combinaison ou séparément, vers le calcinateur (3) à un emplacement situé sous la zone d'introduction du combustible et des gaz d'échappement provenant du four. L'air préchauffé est également dirigé vers le bas par l'intermédiaire du calcinateur (3) et mélangé de manière progressive avec la suspension de gaz d'échappement/combustible. Par ailleurs, sous l'action de la gravité, la farine crue est dirigée vers le bas par l'intermédiaire du calcinateur (3) le long d'une paroi correspondante, puis suspendue dans les gaz d'échappement au niveau de l'extrémité inférieure (3b) dudit calcinateur. La suspension de gaz d'échappement/farine crue est extraite de l'extrémité inférieure (3b) du calcinateur et acheminée vers une unité de séparation (4) permettant de séparer la farine crue, laquelle est alors acheminée vers le four (5). On obtient ainsi une réduction importante du NO¿x? transporté en direction du calcinateur avec les gaz d'échappement du four, ainsi qu'un degré de brûlage élevé, y compris avec des combustibles présentant une faible teneur en constituants volatils, et une faible conversion en NO¿x? de l'azote acheminé vers le calcinateur avec le combustible.

Title: Engine starting control device
Inventor: OTA ATSUO
IPC: F02N19/00

Granted: 2006-08-08
Abstract: To start an engine quickly by replying an opening of a throttle valve. It is determined whether an engine speed at the moment of opening a throttle valve has inertia suited to restart an engine by a normal revolution priority speed. When the engine speed is higher than the normal revolution priority speed, an engine is restarted by immediately revolving a starter motor in a normal direction. When the engine speed is lower than the normal revolution priority speed, an engine is stopped completely, positioning a crankshaft to a restarting position, thereafter again the engine is restarted. In this case, when the engine speed is lowered to a certain degree, the engine is stopped rather in an early stage by braking the engine.      The normal revolution priority speed is set depending upon a crank angle.

Abstract: A lighting apparatus is described for incorporation into a tiled wall, panel, ceiling, floor or similar structure. The apparatus comprises: a reflector unit that has at least one reflective surface for location behind the surface of the structure and an external light-transmissive face for location generally flush with the surface of the structure; and means for coupling an end of a fibre-optic cable having a multiplicity of optical fibres to the reflector unit behind the surface of the structure so that light projecting from the ends of the fibres enters the reflector unit and is reflected by the reflective surface(s) so as to provide substantially uniform illumination across the light-transmissive face. The reflector unit is formed with an external flange generally parallel to the light-transmissive face. This facilitates positive fixing of the apparatus to the substrate of the wall or ceiling, for example using tile cement, and enables repositioning of the apparatus and surrounding tiles until the cement is dry.

Abstract: A method of forming a liquid crystal device, includes: contacting an aqueous solution comprising a surfactant and a receptor molecule with a top surface of a liquid crystal. The liquid crystal is in a holding compartment of a substrate, and the receptor molecule is adsorbed on the top surface of the liquid crystal forming an interface between the liquid crystal and the aqueous solution. The receptor molecule is different than the surfactant. A method of detecting a compound in a flowing stream includes passing an aqueous solution over a top surface of a liquid crystal in a holding compartment of a substrate. The method also includes determining whether a change in the orientation of the liquid crystal occurs as the aqueous solution is passed over the top surface of the liquid crystal. A change in the orientation of the liquid crystal indicates the presence of the compound in the flowing stream.

Abstract: Change-over of the sound receiving characteristic of a hearing aid having spaced apart first and second microphone means (Fmic, Bmic) between the omnidirectional characteristic and a directional characteristic is effected by controlled attenuation and time or phase delay of signals derived from the signals (X front, X back) from the first and second microphone means before forming and overall combined signal (y) to be supplied to the hearing aid signal processor, whereby the overall combined signal (Y) is determined by Y = X front * (1 - omni * e-j.omega.T) + X back * (omni - e -j.omega.T) , where omni is an adjustable attenuation control parameter preferably in the range 0 <= omni <= 1 and T is a time delay corresponding to the acoustical delay between the first and second microphone means. In result, the change between the omnidirectional characteristic and any desired form of the directional characteristic is effected as a smooth change-over substantially without affecting phase relationship. Time delay and amplitude characteristic of the hearing aid.
