Patent EP-1166136-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BRAYTON DWIGHT
IPC: G01M99/00
Filed: 2000-03-23
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided which allow control systems to be tested. Specifically, a test system is coupled to a control system in a manner which allows the test system to communicate with and drive the control system by sending and receiving signals via both the controller-I/O communication channel and the field I/O connectors. In essence, the test system is used to both simulate a plant to be controlled and to monitor, validate, and or modify the internal state of the control system controller and possibly the control system I/O interface. Plant simulation is accomplished by simulating the I/O devices to which the control system is coupled (and hence the plant processes) when installed in its operational environment. In addition to the simulation of I/O devices, the test system takes advantage of the fact that many commonly used controller and I/O interfaces are capable of communication with other devices by using such communications ability to provide instructions to or obtain information from a control system's controller(s) and I/O interface(s).

Abstract: Cette invention concerne une cuiller dotée de deux poids extérieurs (20, 22). Le premier poids (20) est situé à l'extrémité la plus haute (16), le second (22) à l'extrémité la plus basse (18) de la cuiller. L'action combinée de ces deux poids à pour effet d'accélérer le taux d'insertion de la cuiller dans un liquide de sorte que la durée requise pour l'insertion est moindre que dans le cas de cuillers sans poids, de cuillers à poids supérieur ou de cuillers à poids inférieur. Par ailleurs, ces poids empêchent la cuiller d'onduler sur son axe longitudinal pendant la descente. Selon un second mode de réalisation, on trouve une entretoise fixée au bord menant de la cuiller de manière à maintenir ledit bord à l'écart du fond du puits. Ainsi, les sédiments soulevés par l'impact de la cuiller contre le fond du puits ne risquent pas de pénétrer dans l'intérieur creux de la cuiller.

Abstract: A two-part sizing system for making colorless, densified fiber pellets of a reinforcing fiber material. The densified product may be advantageously produced by first applying a precursor size composition to reinforcing fiber strands, chopping the reinforcing fiber strands into chopped strand segments, applying a binder size, and densifying the chopped strand segments to form densified fiber pellets. The binder size is formulated using a copolymer of maleic anhydride which generates a product free from discoloration. In the process of making the pellets, the sized chopped strands are densified by tumbling in a rotating chamber for a period of time sufficient to increase their density but insufficient to degrade the fibers to a point where composite articles formed from such pellets have lower tensile or impact strengths than comparable composite articles formed from unpelletized strand segments.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a grafting process comprising the formation of a grafted polymeric structure having a substrate polymer in hybrid formation with one or more of the same or other polymers or monomeric subunits thereof. More particularly, the present invention contemplates a method of generating a homogenous or heterogenous grafted polymer by inducing or otherwise facilitating free radical formation to initiate polymerization of monomer units corresponding to the same or different polymers to a substrate polymer previously subjected to physical stress means. The resulting hybrid polymer may comprise a substrate polymer and a population of a second or further polymers in homogenous or heterogenous hybrid formation with the substrate polymer. A homogenous population includes a grafted population of the same polymer whereas a heterogenous population comprises a grafted population of two or more different polymers. The homogenous or heterogenous population may be in a random or patterned array and may be regarded, in one embodiment, as reactive or interactive centres for solid phase organic synthesis and binding of polymeric and/or chemically interactive molecules. The present invention also discloses a method to render polymers, previously regarded as not being suitable material for graft formation, capable of receiving a graft polymer in a heterogenous or homogenous fashion. Thus, the instant invention permits the production of a new range of hybrid polymer including copolymer materials and blends of polymers.
