Title: Method and device for the distillative processing of 1,6-hexandiol, 1,5-pentandiol and caprolactone
Inventor: GALL MARTIN
IPC: B01D3/14
Filed: 2002-01-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the distillative processing of the crude products 1,6-hexandiols (HDO), 1,5-pentandiol (PDO) or caprolactone (CLO) obtained according to the method of German patent application DE-A 196 07 954 in order to obtain the corresponding pure products. The distillative processing proceeds in a separation column (TK) in which a separating wall (T) is arranged in the column longitudinal direction forming an upper common column section (1), a lower common column section (6), a feed part (2, 4) with reinforcement part (2) and drive part (4), and a removal part (3, 5) with output part (3) and reinforcement part (5). The corresponding crude product HDO, PDO or CLO is fed in the center section of the feed part (2, 4), the high- boiling fraction (C) is removed from the column sump, the low-boiling fraction (A) is removed via the column head and the medium-boiling fraction (B) is removed from the center section of the removal part (3, 5). The inventive method can also be carried out in thermally coupled columns.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for constructing a dispensing end portion of a cartridge used to hold and dispense food sauce. A flat end disk (18) is held in a transfer pocket (26) and moved by a disk punch (28) through a die openi ng (36,38) smaller in diameter than the disk. The die (32,34) bends the peripheral portion of the disk into a skirt (48). The disk punch (28) insert s the disk into the open end (16) of a cartridge body (10) and against a mandr el (42) positioned so that an end portion of the cartridge body extends beyond the skirt. Heat is applied to melt thermoplastic coatings (14,20) on the dis k and cartridge body. A crimping device (62,64) crimps the end portion of the cartridge into a flange (68) which is bent against the disk and folds the skirt to form a lip (70) doubled over on the peripheral area of the disk. Thermoplastic coatings bond to weld the flange to the disk with the lip enclosed between them.

IPC: F16D1/12
Filed: 2003-08-12
Abstract: A coupling assembly for connecting a drive shaft in axial alignment with a motor shaft includes a coupling sleeve configured to engage an end portion of each of the motor shaft and the drive shaft. The coupling sleeve extends in the axial direction from a forward end proximate to the motor to a distal rearward end which is remote therefrom. A central bore extends through the coupling sleeve and includes a first end portion extending into the forward end of the sleeve having a size complementary to that of the end portion of the motor shaft. A  second other end portion of the bore extends axially into the rearward end of the sleeve and has a size which is complementary to that of an end portion of the drive shaft. The sleeve is secured to the motor shaft and a jack or lifting ring is coupled to the drive shaft adjacent to the sleeve. The lifting ring includes an aperture sized to receive therein a connector which is movable into engagement with the coupling sleeve. An internally threaded bore which is spaced radially outwardly from the central bore is provided in the rearward end of the coupling jacket. The aperture is positioned such that the connector is insertable axially into the threaded bore, whereby engagement of the connector with the internal threads moves the lifting ring and drive shaft along the axis relative to the coupling sleeve and motor shaft.

Title: Optical guidance system for invasive catheter placement
Inventor: SCHEARS GREGORY J
IPC: G01V8/16
Filed: 2002-06-19
Abstract: Light from a small laser diode is inserted in a distal end (50) of a catheter (30) and passed through an optical fiber (10) that is either included in the lumen or incorporated into the wall of an invasive catheter tube during manufacture. The light is selected to be of a wavelength that is minimally absorbed by tissue, preferably in the range from about 620 nm to 1100 nm. 780 nm is preferably used as this is where the tissue absorption is near a minimum. The light passes out the end of the fiber (10) and through the tissue to the outside of the patient's skin where it is measured. The light pattern is observed by night vision goggles (70) that filter out other frequencies of light. The detected light permits location of the end of the fiber (10), the positional accuracy depending on the thickness of tissue between the fiber tip and the exterior of the body.

Title: Optical projection apparatus and method
Inventor: BEISER LEO
IPC: G03B21/14
Filed: 1996-10-08
Abstract: Certain optical imaging systems exhibit disparate vertical and horizontal image focal surfaces; at least one of which is tipped with respect to the optical axis .      The projection optics which illuminates such systems must provide that the vertical image components focus upon the nominal vertical image surface, while the horizontal image components focus on the disparate horizontal image surface. Because at least one of these image surfaces may be tilted with respect to the projection axis, correction is required to maintain focus over the entire image surfaces and to eliminate keystoning. The system may also require differing vertical and horizontal image magnifications as projected upon the above disparate focal surfaces. This invention describes inter alia, the techniques for meeting these varied requirements; to project a rectilinear object field such that it forms a final focused rectilinear image in a system having tipped and disparate image planes.
