Abstract: The method and apparatus is provided for sealing a splice in an electrical cable. A pair of spaced-apart sealing dams are formed about the electrical cable with the splice being located therebetween. A generally cylindrical splice enclosing shell, having a pair of opposed open ends is supported around the splice. The shell includes plural shell fingers extending from each end of the shell. The shell fingers are secured to each other at a location outwardly adjacent of the sealing dams to positionally confine the sealing dams, preventing outward migration thereof. The splice may be encapsulated with an encapsulant under pressure, which is retained by the splice enclosing shell.

Title: Binder system on the basis of polyurethane for molding material mixtures for use in the production of casting molds and cores

Abstract: This invention describes the use of higher fatty acid methyl esters, i.e. of methyl monoesters of fatty acids having a carbon chain of 12 C atoms or more, for example of rapeseed oil methyl ester, as solvent for the individual or both components of polyurethane binders for molding materials used in foundry technology, the components of which comprise a phenolic resin which contains free OH groups and a polyisocyanate as a reaction participant. The fatty acid methyl esters can be the sole solvent. However, they also can be used, at least for the polyisocyanate, together with a high boiling aromatic hydrocarbon, whereby the amount of the fatty acid methyl ester should exceed the amount of the hydrocarbon, and they can be used, at least for the phenolic resin, together with a solvent of higher polarity. The use of fatty acid methyl esters entails considerable benefits. In particular, the addition of high-boiling aromatic hydrocarbons which had so far been unavoidable is no longer necessary or can be minimized drastically.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un détecteur électromagnétique pour champ étroit et un procédé pour détecter dans un système de coordonnées la présence d'un objet ou une caractéristique de celui-ci, telle que sa densité ou son épaisseur. Parmi les applications, il y a l'imagerie diagnostique. Le détecteur peut aussi être utilisé comme un détecteur d'obstruction ou comme détecteur électronique à champ étroit à la place d'un fil de déclenchement, sans poser de problèmes lorsqu'il est exposé aux salissures, à la neige, à la pluie ou au soleil. Le détecteur utilise un émetteur pour émettre une séquence de signaux électromagnétiques en réponse à un signal d'horloge d'émission, un récepteur pour échantillonner le signal électromagnétique uniquement sur le trajet initial direct des ondes à haute fréquence, tout en excluant tous les autres signaux électromagnétiques, en réponse à la réception d'un signal d'horloge de réception et un processeur de signaux pour traiter le signal électromagnétique échantillonné sur le trajet initial direct des ondes à haute fréquence et fournir des informations sur la caractéristique d'un objet. Habituellement, le signal électromagnétique est une courte rafale d'ondes à haute fréquence et l'obstruction doit assurer une éclipse sensiblement complète du trajet direct des ondes à haute fréquence. En utilisant des techniques de temps de trajet, un circuit d'horloge provoque un échantillonnage par le récepteur du signal électromagnétique uniquement sur le trajet initial direct des ondes à haute fréquence, sans échantillonnage des signaux électromagnétiques sur le trajet indirect. Le système de détecteur comprend aussi un circuit fonctionnant avec un spectre étalé sur une bande ultra-large, ce qui réduit les interférences sur et depuis d'autres dispositifs à haute fréquence, tout en permettant un co-allocation de détecteurs électroniques multiples et sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'allouer des fréquences.

Abstract: The adaptive compression technique improves the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) technique because it reduces the required storage space (18) and transmission time with transferring data (22). Pre-filled compression dictionaries (48) are utilized to resolve prior problems with the Lempel-Ziv technique where compression software starts with an empty compression dictionary and little compression is attained until dictionary has been filled with sequences common in the data being compared. The compression dictionary (48) is pre-filled with letter sequences, words and/or phrases that are commonly found in the compressed area. They may be used in the pre-filled dictionary where they are determined by sampling text data from the same text genre. Initially, multiple pre-filled dictionaries (52) may be utilized by the software, where the most appropriate dictionary for maximum compression is identified and used to compress current data. These modifications are made to any of the known Lempel-Ziv compression techniques based on the variants detailed in 1977 and 1978 articles by Ziv and Lempel.

Abstract: A screen assembly particularly adapted to be used in a continuous or batch digester in the production of cellulose (chemical) pulp utilizes a particular screen plate construction that enhances productivity while minimizing blockage of the screen slots (and subsequent non-uniformities in the pulp produced when the screen is blocked). A screen plate having a convex outer surface and concave inner surface (substantially an arc of between 20-60 degrees) is pivotally connected for movement about a vertical axis on one side edge to a frame mounted in the digester. The screen plate has a plurality of slots (e.g. 2-13 mm wide) machined in it, and the screen plate is positioned in the digester so that the inclination angle of the slots relative to the horizontal or vertical is between 30-60 (e.g. about 45) degrees. A plurality of land areas are provided between regions of the slots in screen plate. A plurality of support pins may be connected (e.g. welded) to the screen plate outer surface and extend outwardly from it. The support pins in different land areas are offset from each other and may be disposed in an imaginary straight line that makes an angle substantially the same as the angle of the slots with respect to the horizontal or vertical. Preferably the slots taper outwardly at the outer surface at an angle of between about 10-60 (e.g. about 30) degrees.
