Abstract: An apparatus for handling flowable material, particularly particulate material, which is held in a discharge container such as an IBC having an opening normally covered by a transport cap, comprises a device which is adapted to engage and remove the transport cap and a device to cover at least a rim of the cap during such removal. The problem of contamination is overcome using the apparatus which is in the form of an annular metal (in the embodiment) cowl which has two peripheral spaced apart upstanding walls, the inner wall rising from an internal base in the embodiment and from which also rises the engaging and removing device, which in the embodiment shown comprises a pneumatic piston and cylinder arrangement. The piston carries an extractor in the form of an annular disc or spider having a depending peripheral wall which carries an inflatable ring or tire. The external surface of the inner wall carries at its rim a lip seal which is mounted over an inflatable ring. The outer wall is higher than the inner wall, and carries an annular seal too, which extends over the lip seal.

Abstract: An amusement ride for catapulting a human rider, enclosed within a capsule, into the air in much the same fashion as ancient armies would hurl large boulders over the walls of castles. The ride provides many of the sensations and thrills encountered by fighter pilots launching from the decks of aircraft carriers without the requirement for flight training or the associated dangers. The ride essentially consists of a siege type catapult and a releasably connected launch pod. When in the launch position, a release mechanism is triggered by the operator and the rider is catapulted into the air at a physiologically safe rate of acceleration along a predictable free-flight arc. When an acceptable elevation is reached, the rider is separated from the capsule and gently brought back to earth using an automatically deploying parachute or similar device. An alternate embodiment envisions the use of a similar device to project a conveyance vehicle along a horizontal track similar to a stone skipping across the water.

Abstract: The method for determining the slag state in electric arc furnaces involves using a signal derived from the current i(t) flowing through the electrode (2). An n-th derivative of i(t) with respect to time is determined at given instants or continuously, where n may be equal to 2, 3 or 4. The effective value of this derivative is expressed as a mean square value over a specified integration period T. This value is compared with given limiting values to establish as to whether the slag state and the electrode cover are optimal. Also claimed is an apparatus which includes a current measurement unit (3), a differentiating unit (4), a checking unit (7) which produces a signal corresponding to the slag state. One or more lances (9) serve for introduction of carbonaceous material or oxygen into the furnace.
