Title: Metering and dispensing system
Inventor: EITNER JOSEPH GEORGE JR
IPC: B05B7/32
Filed: 1990-10-26
Granted: 1992-04-16
Abstract: A method and apparatus for dispersing an active ingredient, such as a POUND umigant, fertilizer or room freshener. The active ingredient is placed in a container (13) and a pressurised solvent/propellent is subsequently introduced from a source (11). The solvent/propellent expands to adopt a liquid phase and a gaseous phase. The liquid phase serves to absorb the active ingredient and the gaseous phase serves to propel the borne active ingredient out of the apparatus through a dispensing outlet (14) where further expansion takes place and the active ingredient is dispersed in a fog or mist. Check valves (15, 16) create a pressure differential between the sample cylinder outlet (23) and a by-pass portion (22) to enable total absorption of the active ingredient. The system is particulary suitable for the spraying of insecticides where a metered amount of active ingredient is to be dispersed or for exhausting a total supply of active ingredient.

Title: Service parameter interworking method
Inventor: HUNDSCHEIDT FRANK
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 2000-08-01
Granted: 2003-12-04
Abstract: There is described an approach to service parameter interworking to achieve a service parameter exchange between a network using a circuit-oriented protocol and a network using a packet-oriented protocol. Further, circuit-switched service parameters are received at an interworking node (10) from the network using the circuit-oriented protocol or packet-switched service parameters from the network using the packet-oriented protocol. Then, circuit-switched service parameters being related to service differentiation in the network using the circuit-oriented protocol are mapped to packet-switched service parameters used for service differentiation in the network using packet-oriented protocol or vice versa in the interworking node (10). Payload data is forwarded between the different networks using the mapping result.

Title: Modified plastic bag opening apparatus
Inventor: CONNING WILLIAM D
IPC: B65B69/00
Filed: 1991-02-19
Granted: 1994-01-13
Abstract: An apparatus for opening plastic bags to remove their contents has a pair of wheels (11,12) mounted in approximate coplanar relationship such that there is a point of approximate cotangency. The two wheels rotate in opposite directions, and a series of tines 13 are mounted in spaced relation on the periphery of each wheel to extend normal to the direction of travel of the loop. Once a filled plastic bag is placed onto the apparatus at the point of approximate cotangency of the wheels, a biased flexing structure presses the bag against the tines. A hole is created in that surface riding on the tines as the tines move away from the point of approximate cotangency. To remove any articles remaining in an opened bag, a pair of oppositely-rotating rollers (63,68) are positioned so as to draw the bag between them. An oscillating member forward of the rollers acts to prevent any articles remaining in an opened bag from entering between the rollers. A vacuum collection means 73 draws off the emptied bags. The apparatus has particular application to the opening of bags containing recyclable articles. <IMAGE>

Title: Furnace valve
Inventor: KING PATRICK DANA
IPC: F27D3/15
Filed: 1987-06-29
Granted: 1990-06-07
Abstract: A sliding gate valve assembly employed on the side of a furnace as a furnace valve is so structured that the shut off of metal flow from the furnace occurs by directing the slide gate (21) to the up position rather than the down position. In addition, to facilitate a reduction in space at the slide gate, the slide gate is desirably configured to be asymmetrical, with the short end extending upwardly from the pour opening (29) in the nozzle. A refractory lined heat shield (26) protects the sliding gate carrier (22) and also serves to mount a collector extension (30) when used. The slide gate (21) is provided with a metallic frame (60) which retains a monolithic refractory (80) into which erosion resistant refractory inserts or performed members (29,70) are cast. Means are desirably provided to remove the spent refractory for remanufacture thereby reclaiming the casting. Similarly in the stationary plate (20), means are provided for remanufacture and for facilitating proper orientation of erosion-resistant refractory inserts in the manufacture of the stationary plate. The stationary plate is symmetrical to provide full travel pressure face relationship with the sliding gate (21). Both the stationary plate (20) and slide gate (21) casting have spring pad back up reinforcements. The statutory plate desirably has means for securing a well nozzle (19) to it.

Patent AU-547535-B2 (AU)
Title: Diffuser
Inventor: PAUL MICHEL VINCENT DE
IPC: F04D29/68
Filed: 1982-01-07
Granted: 1985-10-24
Abstract: The diffuser is symmetrical about an axis AA' and has a flared outer wall (2,3) going from an axial inlet to an outlet. The outer wall is divided into an upstream portion (2) and a downstream portion (3) by a circular bleed slot (1) disposed symmetrically about the axis. The profile of the outer wall is such that, in operation, the direction of fluid flow along the outer wall is from the inlet towards the outlet, both over the upstream portion, and over the downstream portion. Further, it is so arranged that the pressure gradient measured at the surface of the wall and along the direction of fluid flow is negative upstream from the bleed slot and positive downstream therefrom. This ensures that only a small percentage of the fluid flow needs to be bled off to achieve desirable flow conditions, thereby providing good diffuser efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power-actuated chuck having a plurality of clamping jaws which are radially guided in a chuck body and are connected, via wedge receivers which extend at an angle to the axis of the chuck and wedge pieces extending into said wedge receivers, to an adjustment member which is axially displaceable in the chuck body and whose operating stroke is limited by form-locking and can be lengthened by turning a ring mounted coaxial to the chuck axis in the chuck body in order to disengage the clamping jaws from the adjustment member. In order to be able to disengage the clamping jaws from the adjustment member by an additional stroke of the latter without additional transmission elements being necessary for this, the ring is developed as a synchronizing ring (6) for controlling at least two stop pins (7) which are mounted in the chuck body (1) and are displaceable into the path of movement of the adjustment member as stops limiting the operating stroke (A) of the adjustment member (4).
