IPC: B21B41/00
Filed: 2009-10-02
Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for decelerating and temporarily accumulating a hot rolled product moving longitudinally along a first axis (A1) at a first velocity V1. The apparatus comprises a curved guide (12) with an entry end (12n) aligned with the first axis (A1) to receive the product, and with an exit end (12b) spaced radially from the first axis (Al) and orientated to deliver the product in an exit direction transverse to the first axis (A1) The curved guide (12) is rotatable about the first axis (A1) in a direction opposite to the exit direction of the product and at a speed at which its exit end (12b) has a second velocity V2 lower than V1 and such that the product is delivered from the exit end (12b) as a helical formation of rings and at a third velocity V3 equal to V1-V2. A cylindrical drum is arranged to axially receive the helical formation of rings and to rotate about the first axis (A1) in a direction opposite to the direction of rotation of the curved guide (12) and at a speed such that the product is unwound from the drum at the third velocity V3. A receiver (16) moves to and fro along a path parallel to the first axis (A1) to receive the product being unwound from the drum. A shroud is (18) configured to partially encircle the drum, and rotatable interior rollers (20) are circumferentially spaced around the interior of the shroud (18). The interior rollers (20) are spaced radially from the surface of the drum and extend in parallel relationship with the first axis (A1).

Patent CA-2755865-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RICHARD PETER
IPC: C12N15/53
Filed: 2010-03-17
Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing xylonic acid from xylose with a recombinant fungal strain that is genetically modified to express a xylose dehydrogenase gene, which is able to convert xylose to xylonolactone, which is sponta-neously or enzymatically hydrolysed to xylonic acid. The xylonic acid is excreted outside the host cell. Xylonate production may be coupled with xylitol production. Alternatively, if xylitol production is not desired, its production is reduced by removing the al-dose reductase (or specific xylose reductase) enzyme, which converts xylose to xylitol. Expression of a heterologous lactonase en-coding gene may result in higher acid concentrations. The method is especially suitable for producing xylonic acid from a hemi-celluiose hydrolysate such as hydrolysed lignocellulosic plant biomass.

Title: Magnetometer-based detector for objects in a pipeline
Inventor: MISKA STEPHEN J
IPC: F16L55/48
Filed: 2010-05-19
Abstract: A system and method for detecting the passage of an object in a pipeline includes a non-intrusive detection device that houses one or more shielded magnetometer sensors and a microcontroller with adaptive thresholding detection means. The adaptive thresholding detection means removes outlier data from the magnetic flux data stream and then passes the outlier-free data stream through four low pass filters. A smoothed magnitude of the data stream is compared to detection limits and, if a passage event has occurred, a recent detection is indicated, a counter of a display unit is incremented, a time of passage is recorded, and both statistics are displayed on the display unit. Because a single object may produce multiple mag-netic fields, the detector may be locked-out for a predetermined period of time after the passage event to prevent a second detection of the same object as it passes the detection device.

Differential pressure is applied to the preform to expand the preform into a hollow body within the blow molding tool that has been partially closed.                                       At least one insert is introduced into the interior of the hollow body through an open side of the hollow body in the blow molding tool that has been partially closed.
