Patent EP-0058131-B1 (EP)
IPC: B06B1/18
Filed: 1982-01-15
Granted: 1985-05-15
Abstract: An oscillator is proposed which comprises a pair of cylinders having a common, circular-cylindrical outer wall (100) and two sealingly guided pistons (120, 122) each having one piston rod (121, 123), which are likewise guided in a sealing manner to the outside through the closure walls of the cylinder. The cylinder is divided by the pistons (120, 122) into outer chambers (124, 125) and inner chambers combined into one common chamber (126). The chamber (126) is filled with fluid. The outer chambers (124, 125) have two openings (102, 103) offset from one another by 180 DEG . A control cylinder (101) having axially offset, oppositely disposed holes (104, 105, 106, 107) connects the outer chambers in alternation with an annular high-pressure chamber (113, 115) and an equalization chamber (114) whenever the control cylinder (101) is rotated. The two pistons (120, 122) thereby execute movements in common toward the left or right, respectively. The stroke is determined by the quantity of fluid capable of flowing out of the high-pressure chamber and into the equalization chamber, and the frequency is determined by the speed of rotation of the control cylinder. A direct control of an oscillator is thus realized, without additional connecting lines and the delay associated with such lines. Frequencies of up to 7000 Hz and strokes up to 10 mm can be generated.

Abstract: The device for measuring a parameter on a rotary member rotating about an axis carried by a fixed structure, comprises on the rotary member at least one sensor (15) with an associated electric circuit and, on the structure, an electric power generator (3), coupling means (6, 11) allowing the transmission of electric power from the generator (3) towards the sensor (15) and, in return, the signals from the sensor (15) towards the operation means (8, 9). The generator (3) sends an electric power at a frequency lower than 100 kHz and the circuit associated to the sensor (13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20) generates a signal of high frequency varying on a large band comprised between 20 and 100 kHz, the coupling being effected by a transformer (6, 11) provided as a rotating machine of which the structure allows the passage of a large pass-band comprised at least between the frequency of the generator and 100 kHz. This device is particularly applicable to measuring the pressure of tires of aircraft landing gears.

Abstract: An improved fluid foil system which is particularly adapted yet not limited to use in sail craft. When used in e.g. a sailboat, the foil (14) is rotationally supported with respect to a mast (26) and laterally tiltable about a longitudinal axis in either direction to receive the wind which in turn powers the boat (12) on which the mast (26) is supported. The mast (26) can be supported in the boat (12) at the other end thereof so as to enable free rotation with respect thereto. In addition, the system is provided with self-leveling means (42, 60) for the foil (14) so as to continually urge such to its rest or non-tilted position, that is, in a position generally parallel to the water, i.e., at a zero attack angle with respect to the wind. This combination of a self-leveling, tiltable, and freely rotationable foil enables the foil (14) to be securely attached to the mast (26) with a minimum of structural weight. This in turn enables both simplified and improved control of the foil (14) and the boat (12) which it powers and otherwise enables maximization of both light and heavy winds in a herethereto unachieved manner.

Abstract: An installation for assembly-line manufacture in which workpieces move in a row along a production path at a generally uniform spacing. A feed unit holds a supply of workpieces and places them one at a time in a predetermined position in the seats of an input rotary feed conveyor. An inspecting unit defines a portion of the continuous production path for the workpieces and inspects the workpieces as they pass therealong. The inspecting unit itself includes an intake rotary conveyor cooperating with the feed conveyor, an output rotary conveyor, and at least one inspecting carousel between the intake and output conveyors. A controller supervises and coordinates the operation of the other units on the workpieces as same move along the production path. A calibrating unit serves to periodically create gaps in the production line upstream of the inspecting carousel, insert a minimum-size gage piece into one of the gaps and a maximum-size gage piece into another gap at a location upstream of the inspecting carousel, measuring the sizes of the gage pieces on the inspecting carousel, and establishing from the measured sizes of the gage pieces, new maximum- and minimum-size limits. A rejecting unit along the production path downstream of the inspecting carousel removes from the path workpieces whose sizes lie outside the range of the size limits established based on the gage-piece sizes.

Abstract: The continuous casting of molten material (1) in a passage (4) defined by a cooled lubricated mould (6) is improved by subjecting a film of liquid lubricant lining the passage wall(s) (5) to oscillations transverse to the direction of movement of the material through the mould. The amplitude and frequency of the oscillations are chosen to generate a beneficial pressure increase in the film by means of the squeeze film phenomenon. Therefore the amplitude must be less than the thickness of the film and the frequency must be less than that which will promote cavitation in the lubricant film.

Title: Method and apparatus for cooling steel rod
IPC: B21B45/02

Granted: 1988-05-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus for quenching steel rod in a high speed rolling mill is provided wherein a liquid coolant is preliminarily applied to the rod prior to its exiting from the mill finishing train in order to increase the column strength of the exiting rod by lowering the surface temperature thereof to less than about 950°C. Thereafter, as the rod progresses through additional liquid cooling devices on the way to the mill laying head, tractive forces are applied to the rod. The aforesaid increase in rod column strength acts in concert with the application of tractive force to ensure that the rod has sufficient rigidity and forward momentum to pass from the finishing train through the liquid cooling devices and to and through the laying head.
