Patent EP-1205709-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HINO HIROKAZU
IPC: F23K5/20
Filed: 1998-05-08
Abstract: In a heavy oil emulsified fuel evaporator system in
which a heavy oil emulsified fuel (11a), after preheated at a
preheater (13), is led into an evaporator (14) to be heated
and then to a separator (15) for separation of its water
content, and the water content, after separated, is used as a
preheating source medium for the preheater (13), the
preheater (13) is constructed of a first heat exchanger (41)
using steam as the preheating source medium and having a
level switch (44a) and a second heat exchanger (42)
communicating with said first heat exchanger (41) via a flow
control valve (44b) and using hot water as the preheating
source medium so that the heavy oil emulsified fuel to be
heated is flown to said first heat exchanger (42) from said
second heat exchanger (41). With this structure an operation
control of the system is facilitated so that a suspended
state of light oil content in the preheating source medium
and thus the discharge of light oil content together with
water content can be avoided.

Abstract: Apparatus for applying a release agent to a fuser roll (52) is
constructed having a web material (62) impregnated with the release
agent. A supply reel (60) is rotatably mounted in a housing and
contains a roll of web material for dispensing into the
system. The web material is extended across the fuser roll to
a take-up reel. An application roller (64) is positioned adjacent

biased against the web material to provide a force to insure
engagement between the web and the fuser roll. The supply
reel is driven to dispense the web material in a direction
consistent with the tangential direction of the surface of the
fuser roll.

Abstract: A shock absorbing structure includes a body defined by a plurality of adjacent coils. The coils are resilient and flexible when exposed to a load applied substantially off-axis, or perpendicular to the axis of the body. In use, the body is positioned so that the coils deflect in directions substantially normal to the axis of the body. In this way, the body acts like a shock absorber, but unlike a coil spring, the shock is absorbed by the laterally inward or outward flexing of the coils, rather than the extension or compression of the coils themselves along their axis. The body can be formed by coiling a monofilament strand which is made of a polymeric material, such as nylon. Any number and types of articles can be made by incorporating the shock absorbing structures of the present invention, including, for example, articles of footwear, impact resistant bumpers, tires, and vibration dampening pads.

Abstract: A process for making functional or decorative flakes or platelets economically and at high production rates comprises applying a multi-layer sandwich of vapor deposited metal and release coats in alternating layers to a rotating chilled drum or suitable carrier medium contained in a vapor deposition chamber. The alternating metallized layers are applied by vapor deposition and the intervening release layers are preferably solvent soluble thermoplastic polymeric materials applied by vapor deposition sources contained in the vapor deposition chamber. The multi-layer sandwich built up in the vacuum chamber is removed from the drum or carrier and treated with a suitable organic solvent to dissolve the release coating from the metal in a stripping process that leaves the metal flakes essentially release coat free. The solvent and dissolved release material are then removed by centrifuging to produce a cake of concentrated flakes which can be air milled and let down in a preferred vehicle and further sized and homogenized for final use in inks, paints or coatings. In one embodiment the finished flakes comprise single-layer thin metal or metal alloy flakes or flakes of inorganic materials, and in another embodiment flakes are coated on both sides with protective polymeric coatings that were applied from suitable vacuum deposition sources or the like contained in the vapor deposition chamber.

Abstract: This invention describes a new method and system for delivering data over a network to a large number of clients, which may be suitable for building large-scale Video-on-Demand (VOD) systems. In current VOD systems, the client may suffer from a long latency before starting to receive the requested data that is capable of providing sufficient interactive functions, or the reverse, without significantly increasing the network load. The method utilizes two groups of data streams, one responsible for minimizing latency while the other one provides the required interactive functions. In the anti-latency data group, uniform, non-uniform or hierarchical staggered stream intervals may be used. The system of this invention may have a relatively small startup latency while users may enjoy most of the interactive functions that are typical of video recorders. Furthermore, this invention may also be able to maintain the number of data streams, or the bandwidth, required.
