Title: Method of preparing an improved l-zeolite catalyst
Inventor: FUNG SHUN CHONG
IPC: C10G35/095
Filed: 1984-11-09
Abstract: A reforming catalyst comprising a type L zeolite containing at least one Group VIII noble metal may be prepared by a method involving contacting the freshly prepared catalyst with oxygen, hydrogen or an inert gas and optionally water at elevated temperatures, contacting the catalyst at elevated temperatures with a source of chlorine such as HCI or Cl<sub>2</sub> and preferably oxygen and water, and contacting the catalyst at elevated temperatures with oxygen and optionally water. Prior to use the catalyst is reduced by contact at elevated temperatures with hydrogen and optionally water. This process enhances the dispersion of the noble metal particles.Preferably the noble metal is platinum and the elevated temperatures range from 480 to 520°C.

Title: Circularly magnetized disk-shaped torque transducer and method for measuring torque using same
Inventor: JONES CHRIS
IPC: G01L3/14
Filed: 2000-04-13
Abstract: A magnetoelastic torque sensor for providing an output signal indicative of the torque transmitted between radially separated locations of a disk-shaped member includes a magnetoelastically active, ferromagnetic, magnetostrictive region which is magnetically polarized in a single circumferential direction and possesses sufficient magnetic anisotropy to return the magnetization in the region, following the application of torque to the member, to the single circumferential direction when the applied force is reduced to zero. First and second torque transmitting elements are directly attached to or form a part of the member at its central axis of rotation and its periphery in such a manner that torque is proportionally transmitted between the member and the transmitting elements. Magnetic field sensor means are mounted proximate to the member to sense the magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the member in response to the torque which is radially transmitted through the member between the first and second transmitting elements. The member is preferably formed of a polycrystalline material wherein at least 50% of the distribution of local magnetizations lie within a 90° quadrant symmetrically disposed around the single circular direction and has a coercivity sufficiently high that the field arising from the member does not magnetize proximate regions of the member to give rise to parasitic magnetic fields which are of sufficient strength to destroy the usefulness, for force sensing purposes, of the net magnetic field seen by the magnetic field sensor means.

Patent AU-5021890-A (AU)
Title: Photographic processing
Inventor: RIDER CHRISTOPHER BARRIE
IPC: G03C5/31
Filed: 1990-02-01
Abstract: In known photographic processing apparatus, quality of the photographs produced can be adversely affected by drift in the paper processor of the apparatus. One cause of drift is incorrect replenishment of the chemicals used in the paper processor. In processing apparatus which utilise only small volumes of chemicals, drift can be caused by replenishment rates not matching the dye formed on the prints being processed, and an operator would need to take steps to adjust the processor. Described herein is an improved method of controlling the replenishment rate of chemicals in photographic processing apparatus. The method comprises deriving a control signal from the image to be exposed on to photographic material and using the derived signal to control the replenishment rate of the chemicals.
