Patent EP-0927322-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ESKILDSEN CHRISTIAN
IPC: F24C3/12
Filed: 1997-09-02
Abstract: A multi-valve structure (B) is used for distributing gas to various burners. The valves are individually adjustable by electrical means, and they are placed in a structure in which the gas flow between two sides of a compartmentalised structure (SW1-SW3) is controlled. The valve structure is used as a manifold at the same time, the gas exits (01-07) being in the plane of the dividing wall (W) between the two sides, but each communicating with one side and one compartment only. The gas supply (1) occurs at the end of the structure and may occur to both sides simultaneously. A very compact construction is obtained which may minimise the length of gas tube between the distribution structure and the burners.

Inventor: FORTUNATI STEFANO
IPC: B21B1/46
Filed: 1997-07-24
Abstract: In the production of grain oriented electrical steel sheet, controlling the condition of thin slab continuous casting results in advantageous solidification structures and precipitates. The steel has an initial content of carbon less than 300 ppm and an initial content of acid-soluble aluminum higher than that normally used for said type of steel. During the final processing steps, the annealed sheet is nitrided through a limited amount of nitrogen. This, in turn, renders the process for controlling the grain dimensions much less critical and results in a constant quality product.

Abstract: Process for producing a steel strip or sheet, in which liquid steel is cast in a continuous-casting machine to form a thin plate and, while making use of the casting heat, is fed through a furnace device, is roughed in a roughing stand to a pass-over thickness and is rerolled in a finishing rolling stand to form a steel strip or sheet of the desired final thickness, in which (a) to produce a ferritically rolled steel strip, the strip, the plate or a part thereof is fed without interruption at least from the furnace device, at speeds which essentially correspond to the speed of entry into the roughing stand and the following reductions in thickness, from the roughing stand to a processing device which is disposed downstream of the finishing rolling stand, the strip coming out of the roughing stand being cooled to a temperature at which the steel has an essentially ferritic structure; (b) to produce an austenitically rolled steel strip, the strip coming out of the roughing roll is brought to or held at a temperature in the austenitic range, and in the finishing rolling stand it is rolled to the final thickness essentially in the austenitic field and is then cooled, after this rolling, to the ferritic field.

Abstract: The present invention relates to topical adhesives for attachment to the skin. In particular the present invention relates to such topical adhesives which can be employed for attachment to the skin of protective articles, clothing, prosthesis, heat wraps, pads, and/or packs, e.g. for topical relief of pain or simply to provide warmth; cold wraps, hearing aids, protective face masks, ornamental articles, or eye wear but excluding absorbent articles. The topical adhesive provides secure attachment and is pleasing to the skin upon application, yet causes no discomfort upon removal. This is achieved by selecting the chemical composition and rheological characteristics of the topical adhesives.

IPC: D07B1/20
Filed: 1998-04-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a hollow braided wire cord made of synthetic fiber that is resistant to pulling, tearing, and abrasion as well as having hydrophobic properties, such as, for example, polyamide, polypropylene, polyester. The inventive cord is particularly suitable for use as a floating or weighting cord for fishing nets or fish-farming nets in the icy-cold near-surface zone of the entire hydrosphere. On the site of use of the floating or weighting agents, the twist angle of the individual or multiple-wound monofilament synthetic fiber wires is adjusted to the direction of twist by cadenced deceleration of the withdrawal speed during the lacing twine braiding procedure. This means that, by first broadening and then narrowing the wire hollow braid sheath, the preferably ellipsoidal floating or weighting agent is firmly lodged and enclosed in the wire braid sheath without additional burr fibres. The wires have a diameter or 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm and are braided by a braiding machine having 16 or 24 lacing twines to give a hollow cord with a diameter of 3-7 mm. The cord is characterized particularly by high resistance to abrasion and breaking.
