Abstract: A rotary device for dispersing gas in molten metal comprises a hollow shaft (1) and a hollow rotor (2) attached to the shaft (1), the rotor (2) having a plurality of vanes (11) extending from the shaft (1) towards the periphery of the rotor (2) and dividing the rotor (2) into a plurality of compartments (C), each compartment (C) having an inlet (9) adjacent the shaft (1) and an outlet (10) adjacent the periphery of the rotor (2), and the rotor (2) having means for passing gas from the discharge end (8) of the shaft (1) into the compartments (C), wherein the discharge end (8) of the shaft (1) opens into a manifold (M) in the rotor (2) and the inlets (9) for the compartments (C) are present in the wall (6a) of the manifold (M). When the device is rotated in molten metal contained in a vessel and gas is passed down the shaft (1), metal is drawn into the manifold (M) and breaks up the gas stream emerging from the shaft (1) into very small bubbles. The gas/metal dispersion flows into the compartments (C) through the inlets (9) and out through the peripheral outlets (10) and the gas is dispersed through the whole body of molten metal.

Abstract: Un commutateur à fibre optique utilise une seule fibre optique pour une communication bidirectionnelle utilisant la lumière. Un mécanisme de commutation ne possède aucune pièce électrique et est donc approprié pour être installé dans une zone où se trouvent des matériaux explosifs combustibles. La fibre optique (100) peut être coupée à la longueur désirée sur place et peut être installée sans avoir recours à des outils spéciaux et sans avoir besoin d'une formation particulière. La fibre (100) est tenue en place à l'aide d'une cosse (140) qui est contrainte de manière à comprimer la fibre (100) et l'assujettir. Un miroir à action de déclic (216) réfléchit la lumière et la renvoie dans la fibre dans une certaine position et ne la réfléchit dans une autre position. Un circuit électronique (210 et 220) génère des impulsions de lumière et détermine la coïncidence des impulsions envoyées et des impulsions reçues pour faire la différence entre le fonctionnement approprié du commutateur et le fonctionnement du commutateur provoqué par la lumière ambiante ou autres faux signaux.

Abstract: The apparatus includes a powered bowl assembly having a tubular shaft journalled within a base of the apparatus. A pressurized air flow is discharged into slurry in the bowl assembly via a circular array of bubble generators. An impellor discharges the slurry outwardly against an upwardly inclined annular surface of the bowl assembly to cause the slurry to merge upwardly with the streams to promote flotation. Slurry within the bowl assembly forms a vortex with particle flotation forming a froth layer inwardly of a slurry vortex. The froth exits the bowl assembly upwardly past a barrier partially closing the bowl assembly. Heavier gangue particles exit via an outlet about the bowl assembly periphery. A collector shroud is partitioned to receive the froth and the heavier waste material. A modified form of the apparatus includes an independently powered bowl assembly and impellor.

Date Nov. 29, 1990.The expansion hose specifically for power steering plants of automobile vehicles includes an outer pressure hose with a high lateral volume expansion connected to an inlet side end piece and an outlet side end piece and an inner flexible hollow body as well extending coaxially thereto and which is connected at the inlet side to a nipple plug of the inlet side end piece and extending freely up into the outlet side end piece and into its outlet channel whereby its outer diameter is less than the surrounding outlet channel. A reverse flow of the pressure medium into the space between the outer pressure hose and the inner flexible hollow body takes place through an annular gap formed thereby and the pressure medium flows into this space through radial portholes formed in axial distances distributed in the inner flexible hollow body. In comparison with known expansion hoses simplification is achieved by a doing away with a throttle located in the center of and within the expansion hose. The desired reduction of the pressure pulsations is arrived at by the inner flexible hollow body extending into the outlet side piece.

Abstract: In a thin film coating method, tack members are brought close to a surface of a substrate to temporarily tack the forward end portion of a web of thin film to the forward end of the substrate. Compression-bonding rollers are then brought into a tacking position where the forward end portion of the thin film is tacked from a standby position where the compression-bonding rollers do not touch the tack members to make compression-bonding contact with the forward end portion of the tacked thin film after the tack members are moved away from the surface of the substrate. The compression-bonding rollers are then rotated at the tacking position for the double purpose of conveying the substrate and adhering the thin film to the substrate. In this process, the forward end of the substrate is detected to produce a detection signal at a detection position before the substrate is conveyed to the tacking position, the conveyance of the substrate is stopped after the forward end of the substrate has been conveyed from the detection position to the tacking position, and the tack members are brought close to the conveyance passage of the substrate while the forward end of the substrate is being conveyed from the detection position to the tacking position to thereby tack the forward end of the thin film to the surface of the substrate after the forward end of the substrate is stopped at the tacking position. <IMAGE>
