Abstract: A method of cutting opposing holes in a side wall of a tubular workpiece and removing the cut out slugs, in which first and second axially aligned punches are applied to opposite side walls of a pressurized workpiece. The second punch has a larger width than the first punch, and reciprocates in a passageway extending laterally from the workpiece. The punches are reciprocated so that the first punch passes through both side walls, and first and second slugs are cut out. The end of the first punch is advanced toward the end of the second punch to capture the cut out slugs between the ends of the first and second punches, and the punches are moved so that the ends of the punches and the slugs captured between them progress along the passageway away from the workpiece. The ends of the punches are separated at a region of the passageway spaced from the workpiece, and the released slugs are removed from the ends of the punches.

Abstract: A gasifying apparatus comprises a gasifier, a reformer and a heating device. The gasifier produces a thermal decomposed gas with use of a thermal decomposition reaction of a liquid or solid fuel such as waste or coal, and the heating device heats a low-temperature steam and air so as to be a high-temperature steam and air, which have a temperature equal to or higher than 700 deg. C. The gasifying apparatus has feeding means including fluid passages for feeding the high-temperature steam and air to the gasifier and the reformer. In a thermal decomposition area of the gasifier, the liquid or solid fuel is thermally decomposed to produce the thermal decomposed gas with sensible heat of the high-temperature steam and air and with the heat generated by an exothermic oxidation reaction between the high-temperature air and the liquid or solid fuel. In the reformer, the thermal decomposed gas is reformed in the existence of the high-temperature steam so as to be a high-temperature syngas. The steam reforming reaction of the liquid or solid fuel is carried out with an exothermic reaction between the high-temperature air and hydrocarbon contained in the thermal decomposed gas and with an endothermic reaction between the hydrocarbon and the high-temperature steam.

Abstract: L'invention vise à améliorer la qualité de transmission d'un premier flux de données (ED), notamment d'un flux de données en temps réel, qui se trouve en concurrence avec au moins un autre flux de données (AD) pour obtenir une capacité de transmission d'un noeud (NK1) d'un réseau de communication à commutation par paquets de données, la capacité de transmission dudit noeud étant limitée. A cet effet, le débit binaire d'un premier flux de données (ED) est augmenté par addition, côté émetteur, de données de redondance (RD). Lors d'une surcharge, l'augmentation du débit binaire du premier flux de données (ED) par rapport à celui du ou des autres flux de données (AD), a pour effet de rendre ce ou ces derniers non prioritaire(s) de sorte qu'une proportion plus importante de la capacité de transmission, disponible en commun, du noeud (NK1) est affectée au premier flux de données (ED).

Abstract: The applicator (10a), to coat the surface (U) of a running web of paper or cardboard with a coating medium (12a), either directly or through a transfer roller, has at least one jet lip (32a) which is formed by a blade component (30a). A mechanism (50a,54a) sets the width of the applicator jet gap (58a), by adjusting the blade (30a) in a bending or a swing movement. The width of the applicator jet gap (58a) is increased by the action of the setting mechanism (50a,54a) on the blade (30a). The blade (30a) is held at the applicator by its longitudinal edges (34a), with support at a point (42a) between the side edges. The setting unit (50a) acts on the blade (30a) between the support point (42a) and the side edges (34a). The width of the applicator jet gap can be decreased by the action of the setting mechanism. The blade can be held in a swing mounting. The setting mechanism can have two setting units, acting on the blade in different directions. A limit stop defines the max. blade bending or swing movement. A lock acts on the blade, to ensure that it is held securely at the blade holder. The setting unit has at least one tilting lever assembly (50a), where the free end of the lever acts on the blade (30a) and the other lever end is linked to the adjustment unit (54a) for its movement. The lever swing mounting (52a) is at the applicator distribution tube or an attachment (28a) fitted to it. The adjustment unit (54a) is at the distribution tube (14a) or a component secured to it. The blade can be fixed to a holder, which is shifted by the setting mechanism, as a cylindrical segment joint body, in a joint socket at the distribution tube. The setting mechanism for the jet gap opening can act on only one jet lip, while the other lip remains static. The adjustable jet lip is secured to the joint body by a holder, or it is in one piece with the joint body. The joint body has a droplet shape, in cross section, and the setting unit acts on at least one of its longitudinal ends. A setting mechanism can be fitted for each of the two jet lips. The applicator can have at least two shell sections which, together, act as the limit walls to define a delivery jet for the coating medium from the distribution channel, and also define an equalizing chamber between the distribution channel and the applicator jet. At least one of the shell sections has a holder for a jet lip and its mounting. An insert can be in the transit zone between the distribution channel and the equalizing chamber, with a number of passage openings for the coating medium flow between them. The distribution tube (14a) is a separate unit from its support body, with a thermal insulation between them.
