Abstract: Rare earth magnetic alloy fine powders are
manufactured by placing a mixture of a rare earth metal
and a transition metal as raw materials in a crucible,
induction heating it in an Ar gas atmosphere, melting
metal elements contained in the above mixture,
injecting an Ar gas at a predetermined pressure from
above the molten alloy to expel the above molten alloy
in a downward direction from the nozzle port of the above
crucible, and applying a jet stream of an inert gas to
the above expelled molten alloy to collide the above
expelled molten alloy with the above inert gas so as
to scatter the above molten alloy and solidify it by
quenching.

Patent EP-1299024-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NORTH JOHN HERBERT
IPC: B04C5/103
Filed: 2001-07-05
Abstract: A method of separating particles from particle laden air is described. The apparatus employed is a multiple stage separator in which the first stage comprises a generally cylindrical chamber (18) having a hollow central member (50) extending axially from one end thereof with openings in its wall (53) remote from the said one end. The first separation step is achieved by introducing air tangentially into the chamber (18) near its said one end, the tangential entry in combination with an unapertured region of the wall (53) of the central member establishing a rotating mass of air in the chamber, thereby causing heavier than air particles to migrate to the outer regions of the chamber (18) under centrifugal force. Suction is applied to the interior of the central member (42) to cause an axial movement of air through the chamber before it can exit through the openings in the wall (53) of the central member. The suction force is selected such that particles near the walls of the chamber tend to continue in a generally rotational and axially progressive path into a particle collecting region (26) of the chamber, while relatively particle-free air is drawn radially inwardly, as it progresses axially, so as to exit to a second separation stage (40), through the openings in the central member wall (53). A skirt (56) extends from the end of the central member beyond the region containing the exit openings, to define a narrow annular gap between the skirt (56) and the wall (22) of the chamber, so that particles in the collection region (26) are prevented from reaching the exit openings (52). An annular flange (68) is provided around the central member (50) between the unapertured and apertured regions of the wall thereof, so as to force the vortex of rotating air within the chamber away from the central member as it progresses along the chamber (18). Particles separated in a later separation stage (40) are conveyed to a particle collecting region (66) via a passage extending through the central member (50) of the first stage, which may include a valve which is closed during air flow, and is opened after air flow ceases to allow particles collected upstream of the valve to pass into the particle collecting region. <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne l'étalonnage d'un capteur de pression dans un système de dosage de carburant pour une compensation de ce capteur de pression la plus exacte possible. A cet effet, la température courante de l'eau de refroidissement (Ta) du moteur à combustion interne est enregistrée. La baisse de température de cette eau de refroidissement (dT) est ensuite déduite de ladite température en tant que mesure de la période d'arrêt du moteur à combustion interne. Ce capteur de pression n'est alors compensé que lorsque cette période d'arrêt dépasse une mesure minimale donnée (dTu).

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for the efficient transfer of heat utilizing micro heat pipes that include a cellular foam or interconnected cellular/truss network having hollow ligaments. A predetermined fraction of the internal volume of the hollow ligaments is filled with a carefully chosen working fluid, and the ends of the hollow ligaments are sealed. In operation, the working fluid evaporates in the region of high heat flux and condenses in regions of lower temperature, resulting in the transfer or redistribution of the fluid's latent heat of vaporization. For open cell foams and interconnected networks, a second fluid flowing through the open cells, separate from the working fluid but also in thermal contact with the hollow ligaments, assists in the transfer of heat from the foam and networks.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des dispositifs thérapeutiques (30, 40, 50, 60) procurant un support ou appliquant une pression sur des tissus. Les dispositifs (30, 40, 50, 60) contiennent une matière pouvant être contractée à partir de son état relaxé dans un état évacué. La matière applique une pression aux tissus d'un patient lorsqu'elle se trouve dans son état relaxé. Une diminution de pression par application d'une dépression a pour résultat un état contracté du dispositif, de telle sorte que le dispositif puisse être appliqué ou administré à un patient. La libération de la dépression a pour résultat le retour à l'état relaxé, appliquant ainsi une pression maximum souhaitable aux tissus et évitant la possibilité de surpression pouvant se traduire par une détérioration ou une nécrose des tissus.

Abstract: A method and configuration for maintaining a constant flow of air to a protective helmet (4) from a fan (3) in a battery powered fresh air unit. The fan (3) is a radial fan with a filter (5) positioned on the suction side of the fan and is operated by a brushless continuous current motor (2). With the aid of signals from position sensors (30) in the motor (2), a control unit (12) can determine the speed of the fan (3). The control unit also detects the motor's power consumption and compares this and the speed with a characteristic curve for the motor (2) for a given flow from the fan, which is stored in a memory (14). In the event of any deviation, the control unit (12) regulates a change of the voltage supply to the motor (2) so that the deviation is reduced. In this way the flow is maintained constant at the desired, adjustable level independent of the blflcking and battery voltage of the filter (5). The control unit (12) emits signals (qs), Vs to a warning indicator light and buzzer (40, 42) in an alarm unit (38) in the fresh air unit if the battery voltage falls below a predetermined minimum safety level.
