Abstract: A method and an apparatus for sharpening the surface of a grindstone for a pulp grinder. In the method a high-pressure water jet is obliquely projected on the surface of the grindstone for detaching bonding material between abrasive grains, without excessively wearing a medium between grinding segments. The apparatus comprises a nozzle, arranged to spray water obliquely onto the surface of the grindstone and a high-pressure pump for feeding high-pressure water through the nozzle. The nozzle is arranged to be moved by transfer means in the axial direction of the grindstone while the grindstone is being rotated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a cylinder head device (2) for an internal combustion engine with at least one cylinder (4). The cylinder head has for each cylinder an inlet channel (6) with an inlet valve (7), and an exhaust channel (8) with an exhaust valve (9) as well as a spark plug (10). According to the invention, the cylinder head (2) is formed for each cylinder (4) with a chamber (15) which is in communication with the combustion chamber (5). The chamber (15) is provided with a valve means (11), which can be displaced between a first position, in which it cuts off the communication between the chamber (15) and the combustion chamber (5), and a second position, in which the chamber (15) has free communication with the combustion chamber (5). The valve means (11) are also formed with a holder for the spark plug (10), which extends through the valve means (11) and protrudes with its end into the combustion chamber (5) or into the chamber (15).

Abstract: The device proposed has, connected to a suction fan, a housing into which the air stream is sucked from underneath through a long-sided inlet (15). Disposed over the inlet (15) is an essentially roof-shaped cover (8). On each side of the inlet (15) is a through section (6) which is joined to the inlet and in which are disposed at least two deflection and precipitation elements (10) which force the air stream to follow an essentially meander-shaped path between the curved trough section (6) below and the roof-shaped cover (8) above. Together with the curved outer wall, the trough section and cover form an air-exit gap (12). The deflection and precipitation elements (10) are designed as parallel elongate spirally curved separation sections.

Abstract: A water based chipping resistant paint which contains a solid component (30 to 65 weight percents) and a slowly-evaporating solvent (0.1 to 10 weight percents) as a water based dispersion substance and wherein the solid component contains a resin having a film forming function, thermally expansive fine grains and a chipping resistant material (respectively, 15 to 75 weight percents, 0.2 to 25 weight percents and 20 to 80 weight percents). The chipping resistant paint facilitates vaporization of water at the time of film formation owing to mixing of the slowly-evaporating solvent, can prevent cracking and blistering of a film due to water remaining in the film and vaporization of water remaining after the film formation, and readily form a thick film owing to an expansion effect of the thermally expansive fine grains at the stage of baking after coating, and therefore is suitable for a chipping resistant undercoat for automobiles.

Abstract: Refining of fats, especially coffee oil, millet oil or rice bran oil to remove free fatty acids comprises the controlled neutralization in an aqueous medium at above the melting point of the fat. A process for refining fatty materials, especially oils, selectively to remove the free fatty acids present, is by controlled neutralization at a temperature above the melting point of the fatty material, in an aqueous medium containing an alcohol or a polyol, with gradual addition of a base to the reaction medium to maintain a pH of 9-11 and to cause partition of the free fatty acid between the lipidic phase and the aqueous phase containing the alcohol or polyol, which is immiscible with the lipidic phase, so that soaps are formed which become solubilized in the aqueous phase to cause displacement of the equilibrium and progressive deacidification of the lipidic phase until the pH is stabilized, at which point the two phases are separated and the deacidified lipidic phase is recovered.
