Abstract: A reverse-osmosis tubular membrane module has a plu­
rality of tubular membrane tubes (50) arranged in a set of paral­
lel supporting tubes (12) with an axial annular permeate flow 
channel (64) defined between each membrane tube and the 
supporting tubes (12) within which it is contained and contain­
ing an open neck resilient material (54). Supports (18) are pro­
vided at each end of the supporting tubes to receive the oppo­
site ends of the membrane tubes and have permeate collec­
tion passageways (24) therein connected (at 46) to receive 
permeate from the annular channels (64). U-shaped connect­
ing tubes (26) connect the adjacent ends of pairs of membrane 
tubes to provide a continuous flow path with the interior of the 
membrane tubes of the module. Means are provided for forc­
ing the U-shaped connecting tubes (26) at each end of the mo­
dule into a resilient grommet (56) to provide a sealing relation­
ship with the interior of the membrane tubes (50).

Abstract: A gripper loom for the production of tufted carpets 
comprises a plurality of grippers and a plurality of knife 
blocks (6) for cutting yarn held by the grippers. A yarn 
monitor comprises infra-red sensors (8) mounted on respec­
tive knife blocks (6) and signal processing circuitry for 
processing the sensor outputs to make it acceptable for 
analysis by a computer. Each yarn produces a pulse and the 
gap between each pair of adjacent pulses is compared by the 
computer with the average gap of the eight preceding pairs 
to indicate whether the gap is so large as to signify a missing 
yarn. The computer can be set to alarm when a missing yarn 
is detected so that a fault in the carpet does not result. The 
monitor can be applied to other types of loom or indeed to 
other apparatus and processes where a plurality of elements 
are being processed.
Patent EP-0081314-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01V5/04
Filed: 1982-11-23
Abstract: A plurality of detectors (12) is disposed within a bore hole 
for ascertaining the frequency and trajectory of high-energy muons 
that penetrate through the earth. This information is converted by 
data processor (42) into an integrated density value of the earth 
for incremental angular lines of sight extending through 
spaced-apart elevations along the detectors (12). The data processor 
(42) uses a tomographic analysis process to combine together all of 
those integrated density values for all of the elevations of 
interest to calculate the densities of discrete spatial volumes 
composing the underground region being investigated. Detectors (12) 
produce electrical signals indicative of the trajectory of the 
passing muon. The signals are recorded by time-to-digital converter 
("TDC") units (30). If the signals appear to have possibly 
originated from a high-energy muon, a micro-processor (38) retrieves 
the information collected by TDC units (30) and transmits it to a 
data logger (40) located at the earth's surface. The data processor 
(42) then utilizes tomographic analysis to make the localized 
density determinations discussed above.

Abstract: A container chassis handling attachment (12) for a lift 
truck (20) having a lift carriage (16) includes a frame for 
attachment to the lift carriage. It also includes clamping 
means (38) having a pair of upper and lower laterally-spaced 
forks independently mounted to the frame by separate 
four-bar linkages and movable by separate hydraulic cylin­
ders. A clamp-positioning means (40) cooperates with the 
fork to rotate the forks and any chassis gripped thereby 
through up to 180°. The attachment is used to store a chassis 
(28) by clamping from one side opposing top and bottom 
surfaces of the chassis, lifting the chassis, rotating the 
chassis about 90° to a substantially upright position, and 
depositing the chassis in such position against a support. 
Alternatively, the chassis may be rotated 180° to an upside-­
down position and deposited onto an underlying right-­
side-up chassis, eventually to form a stack of alternating 
right-side-up, upside-down chassis.

Abstract: In a fuel injection pump wherein fuel is filled on both 
sides of a shuttle (10) intermediately disposed in a high 
pressure chamber for determining the injected amount and 
the injection timing of fuel, the fuel on one side of the shuttle 
(10) is used to determine the injection timing, and at the 
same time the fuel on the other side of the shuttle (10) is used 
to determine the injected amount, an injected amount 
determining high pressure chamber (8, 11) for determining 
the injected amount of fuel and an injection timing determin­
ing high pressure chamber (14) for determining the injection 
timing of fuel are provided independently of each other, a 
shuttle (10) is disposed in at least the injected amount 
determining high pressure chamber to form an injection fuel 
chamber and a pressurization chamber, the injection timing 
determining high pressure chamber is disconnected from 
said pressurization chamber in the supply process of fuel for 
determining the injected amount and fuel for determining 
the injection timing, and the injection timing determining 
high pressure chamber (14) is communicated with the 
pressurization chamber in the fuel injection process. Thus, 
the shuttle (18) for determining the injection timing will not 
be influenced by the fuel for determining the injected 
amount at the time when the fuel for determining the 
injected amount is supplied.

tri-state gate is providing a high impedance output or an 
active low output so that transitions between said impe­
dance output and said active low output can occur at a faster 
rate.

Title: Apparatus for measuring wear in the lining of refractory furnaces
IPC: G01B11/02
Filed: 1984-12-07
Abstract: A continuous wave laser light beam is directed at the refractory lining within a furnace vessel, and the displacement as measured by a self-scanned linear array of the scattered light beam from a nominal or reference position measured to provide an indication of lining wear or damage. The video signal received by the linear array receiver provides information for mapping the worn or damaged areas of the vessel lining so that such areas may be repaired by a gunning spray nozzel. The inspection apparatus includes an optical filter which is temperature controlled to prevent wavelength shifts away from the nominal laser wavelength. The electronic processing circuitry includes a voltage controlled oscillator responsive to the average background level for modifying the scan rate of the linear array to compensate for changes in background level. The threshold against which the reflected laser beam video signal is compared is also a function of background level. Consequently, the system is self-compensating for changes in background radiation temperature. The apparatus may be lowered into a hot furnace vessel following each heat without the need to cool the furnace vessel. The inspection apparatus is mechanically scanned vertically and angularly within the vessel to provide a large number of inspection data points.

IPC: A22C25/02
Filed: 1985-03-01
Abstract: Disclosed is an automatic apparatus for removing a 
surface layer of predetermined thickness from objects of 
varying curvilinear contour advancing past a multiplicity of 
floatingly supported power-driven dressing rollers position­
able automatically by the changing contour of the objects. 
The combined width of the object being dressed and the 
dressing rollers are so distributed that each dresses only a 
separate strip. Uniformity of strip thickness is achieved, in 
part, by controlling the pressure of the dressing rollers 
against the object and, in part, by utilizing a shoe beside the 
dressing rollers effective to limit the thickness of the dressed 
layer and to tilt the axis of the rollers in either direction in 
response to the changing transverse contour of the object. 
Cuttings are removed by suction air flowing past each 
dressing roller. When the apparatus is used to dress fish 
fillets or other skin-bearing edibles, one or more surface 
grooving, scraping and loosening auxiliaries maybe located 
in the path of advance and used advantageousy.
