Title: Process for extracting an apolar substance from a liquid phase by means of a supercritec gas in an extractor equipped with perforated trays
Inventor: PARET GIANCARLO
IPC: B01D11/04
Filed: 1990-10-12
Abstract: The extraction of apolar substances from a liquid phase is carried out by using a supercritic gas which acts in countercurrent in a tower equipped with perforated trays through which the dispersed phase constituted by the supercritic gas rises and a downcomer from which the continuous phase flows downwards. The extraction process is particularly suitable for the extraction with supercritic CO2 of the unreacted paraffins at the end of the process of sulfonation of said paraffins.

Title: Roof or wall cladding comprising inner and outer cladding
Inventor: WALLIS MALCOLM ROBERT
IPC: E04B2/58
Filed: 1983-09-22
Granted: 1985-12-11
Abstract: A cladding construction for a roof or wall comprising a purlin (10), an outer cladding (11) and an inner cladding (12). The purlin is secured to the outer cladding by means of a screw (23) which extends through the outer cladding and an outer flange (14) of the purlin, and the inner cladding is located adjacent a web (13) of the purlin by means of a pair of support members (26).

Title: Liquid storage tanks
Inventor: LUND JOHN BRIAN
IPC: A01C23/00
Filed: 1985-04-20
Granted: 1988-09-21
Abstract: A slurry tanker 1 has a housing 2 which is divided by an upright internal partition 3 into a forward tank portion 4 and rear tank portion 5. The partition 3 is sealed to the walls of the housing 2, apart from an aperture 6 at the bottom of the partition 3. The forward tank portion 4 has a one-way ball valve 8. In use, the valve 8 allows air to be exhausted from the forward tank portion 4, as the tanker 1 is filled with slurry. However, as the tanker 1 is emptied, the valve 8 prevents air entering the forward tank portion 4. Thus, the rear tank portion 5 is substantially emptied before the forward tank portion 4 begins to be emptied. In this way, the weight of slurry tends to be maintained at the forward end of the tanker 1, especially when part-full. This can be especially advantageous where the tanker 1 is a trailer. The invention applies both to vacuum and non-vacuum tankers.

Title: A composite material
Inventor: WILSON ROBERT SAMUAL
IPC: B29C70/34
Filed: 1990-12-06
Granted: 1994-01-05
Abstract: A composite material is manufactured from two spaced stacks (2 and 4) of intermediate fabric material. Each stack consists of a plurality of layers of material placed together face to face. Each layer is formed by embedding high strength fibres having a high modulus of elasticity in a resin matrix. The stacks (2 and 4) are removed from a release film (6), and a film of adhesive is applied to the lower surface of the side portion (8) of the stack (2) and the upper surface of the side portion (10) of the stack (4). These side portions (8 and 10) are placed in overlapping relationship, and are then crimp fastened together by a plurality of fasteners (12). Further layers (14 and 16) of intermediate fabric material are placed over the side portions (8 and 10) to cover the fasteners (12). The crimp fastened stacks (2 and 4) are placed in a mould tool comprising a base plate (18) and a top mould plate (20). A vacuum bag (22) is placed over the top mould plate (20), and an air tight seal is made between the vacuum bag (22) and the base plate (18) by means of a peripheral sealer tape (24). The space inside the vacuum bag (22) is evacuated by withdrawing air through a passage (34) at one edge of the vacuum bag (22). The fastened stacks (2 and 4) are compressed by bringing together the plates (18 and 20), and the mould tool and vacuum bag assembly is then heated in an autoclave to cure the stacks (2 and 4) while they remain under pressure to form the required composite material. After the curing operation has been completed, the mould tool and vacuum bag assembly is removed from the autoclave, the vacuum bag (22) is removed, the mould plates (18 and 20) are separated, and the cured composite material is removed.

Granted: 1993-12-29
Abstract: The invention described here is a control device for regulating the intermittant forward feed step of machine that is fitted with a closed loop conveyor belt or similar piece of equipment, where great precision in the intermittant forward feed step is required, especially when the belt is of a considerable length, 80 metres or more. The device is especially applicable to automatic silk-screen printing machines, for which it has been constructed for the first time. The invention consists of a rotating incremental type encoder transducer (17 or 37) which is used to determine and encode the forward feed step (Sr) of the conveyor belt (2) and the encoder is inserted in a form of drive belt structure consisting of two gear wheels (14,15,16) or (24,25) around which a drive belt (13 or 23) with teeth on both sides passes. The drive belt is of the type currently normally used on industrial robots and plotters, and its teeth engage with a second toothed belt (11) which is attached to one of the sides of the conveyor belt on the machine, or with one of the side strips which make the belt more rigid and which has teeth (21) applied to its upper surface so as to form a flexible rack. <IMAGE>

Title: Apparatus to support chairs during the painting cycle, including when more than one chair is to be painted at the same time.
Inventor: SEDINO MARCO
IPC: B27M/
Filed: 1988-07-21
Granted: 1990-11-02
Abstract: The apparatus consists of a series of frame-panels which move step-by-step along a closed-circuit, rectangular-shaped overhead track, the S-shape sections run longitudinally with the web vertical and the flanges horizontal. The frames on the top flange have a vertical pivot that forces a carriage running along the track into free angled articulation; the frames on the lower flange have a series of horizontal beds, as many as reasonably possible and at least two, all freely hinged to a cross-shaped pivot. A chair is attached freely to the wings of these. During movement, preferably along one of the straight sides of the track, the chairs mounted on the frame are painted at the same time, positioned parallel to the track. After the first re-start, the frame continues forward, step-by-step along the opposite length of the track but in a transverse position before re-entering, after the second re-start, the first side to repeat the cycle with new chairs to be painted in place of those removed in a station prior to the painting station. The transverse frame advance lane is known as the "buffer".During painting, the spiders rotate step by step around their axes at the same time and as many times as there are faces to be painted in order to present one side of the chair to be painted at a time. Parallel spray-painters for each chair can also be mounted.
