Title: Rod guide test apparatus and method
Inventor: O'HAIR DAN E
IPC: G01N3/56
Filed: 1995-10-12
Abstract: A rod guide test apparatus, capable of holding a plurality of rods with rod guides installed, is provided. Test specimens are placed within sections of pipe that are capable of reciprocating movement with the rod and rod guide. The pipe sections are coupled to a source of fluid; such as a test fluid, and flow through the pipe is activated. The apparatus may include a heating element to provide more realistic conditions during test. The system may also be pressurized as desired. A hydraulic cylinder coupled to each pipe simulates side loading of rod guides under test. The side loading test elements are coupled to a control and instrumentation panel to accurately view the conditions to which the rod guides are subjected. A ratchet mechanism, coupled to the rods, rotates the rods and rod guides once each cycle of the reciprocating movement.

Abstract: A dust collector for effectively collecting broken pieces and dust particles of concrete in a construction site.  The dust collector includes a bowl-shaped dust catching body having a large opening at a first end thereof and a working port at a second end thereof opposite to the large opening.  The working port is positioned at a center of the second end of the dust catching body, and permits a crushing tool to move in the working port or move away from the working port.  The dust collector also includes an air closing mechanism fixed to the working port for permitting the crushing tool to enter therethrough while substantially preventing air to flow through the air closing mechanism a sealing mechanism fixed to a periphery of the large opening of the dust catching body wherein the sealing mechanism is made of a flexible material and contacts a crushing operation surface, and a dust discharge mechanism which communicates with the dust catching body for sucking air from inside the dust catching body.  The large opening of the dust catching body is directed to and brought into contact with the crushing operation surface by way of the sealing mechanism.  Air in a space defined between the dust catching body and the crushing operation surface is sucked by the dust discharge mechanism, and dust generated when the crushing operating surface is crushed by the crushing tool that is inserted through the air closing mechanism is discharged by the dust discharge mechanism.

Inventor: DE FILIPPIS PIETRO
IPC: H02P6/10
Filed: 1996-10-16
Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling static electronic components in the control circuit of a three-phase brushless electric motor, a single shunt device (RS) is used for limiting at least one of the phase currents (IF, I1, I2, I3) of the motor (MT) to a preset limit value. A signal generator device (GS) interrupts the switching of the static electronic components (T1, T2, T3, B1, B2, B3) when the voltage (VS) at the ends of the shunt device (RS) exceeds a preset limit current value. Phase current limitation of the motor (MT) is attained using a PWM technique, alternatively modulating two static electronic components (T1, B2 or B3; T2, B1 or B3; T3, B1 or B2) that are comprised in the electric circuit branch in which there is electric continuity at any instant of the control sequence.

Filed: 1994-08-25
Abstract: Détendeur (22) automatique auto-réglable à commande thermique destiné à réguler le flux de réfrigérant alimentant un évaporateur (18) d'un système de refroidissement (10). Ledit détendeur (22) comporte une chambre (84) intérieure généralement cylindrique dotée d'un orifice d'entrée (90) et d'un orifice de sortie (92) qui fournissent un passage pour le flux de réfrigérant s'écoulant à travers le détendeur (22). Le flux de réfrigérant s'écoulant à travers le détendeur (22) est régulé par un élément (98) qui se déplace longitudinalement dans la chambre (84). Ledit élément (98) comporte une ou plusieurs rainures (100) sur sa circonférence, destinées à fournir un passage pour le réfrigérant. Le nombre et la taille des rainures (100) qui s'alignent avec l'orifice d'entrée (90) et l'orifice de sortie (92) déterminent la vitesse d'écoulement du réfrigérant à travers le détendeur (22). La position longitudinale de l'élément (98) est commandée par des générateurs de force (102, 106, 108) et des sondes (74, 78). Les générateurs de force (102, 106) comportent de préférence des soufflets, tandis que le générateur de force (108) comporte un ressort à pression. Il en résulte que la position de l'élément (98) dépend de la pression du fluide dans les soufflets et de la taille et de la configuration desdits soufflets (102, 106), et de la constante de rappel du ressort à pression (103). Lorsque la température augmente au niveau des sondes (74, 78), la pression augmente elle aussi dans les conduits (76, 80) et les soufflets (102, 106). La pression du fluide dans le serpentin (20) d'évaporateur est communiquée à travers l'élément (98) par des passages (112, 114), si bien que le mouvement de l'élément (98) n'est pas entravé par un différentiel de pression de fluide dans la chambre.
