Title: Method and apparatus for delivering a cased glass stream
Inventor: SCOTT GARRETT L
IPC: C03B7/06
Filed: 1997-09-10
Abstract: Apparatus for forming a cased glass stream having an inner core glass surrounded by an outer casing glass includes a first orifice (22) for receiving core glass from a first source (12). A second orifice (28) is vertically spaced beneath and aligned with the first orifice, and is surrounded by an annular chamber (30) that communicates with the second orifice through the gap between the first and second orifices. A spout (36) delivers casing glass from a second source through a tube (32) to the annular chamber in such a way that glass flows by gravity from the first and second sources through the orifices to form the cased glass stream. A plurality of gas burners (58) are disposed in the spout above the glass pool. The casing glass delivery spout is configured for improved heat transfer to, and improved heat retention within, the casing glass pool within the spout. Specifically, the glass pool surface area (63) is enlarged, and the glass pool depth is reduced. Free space above the glass pool is enlarged to accommodate gas flames from more burners, and to increase surface heat radiation into the glass pool. The housing (44) that supports the spout is designed such that an annular spout support surface (at 47) engages the spout radially outwardly of the spout opening(s) (34) for reducing heat transfer to the housing from casing glass flowing through the opening. <IMAGE>

Title: Improved ratio controller for continuously variable hydrostatic transmission
Inventor: FOLSOM LAWRENCE RAY
IPC: F16H39/14
Filed: 1995-10-31
Abstract: A continuously variable hydrostatic transmission includes an input shaft connected to drive a hydraulic pump unit, a grounded hydraulic motor unit, and an output shaft.

Title: Apparatus for the recovery of lignin
Inventor: LORA JAIRO H
IPC: D21C3/20
Filed: 1993-09-01
Abstract: Lignin is precipitated in high yields and at high rates from a black liquor produced by pulping wood at high temperatures and pressures with an aqueous lower aliphatic alcohol solvent. The lignin is precipitated by diluting the black liquor with water and an acid to form a solution with a pH of less than 3, an alcohol content of less than 30% by volume and a temperature of less than 75 DEG C. The precipitated lignin, when subsequently dried, is in the form of a powder which requires little or no crushing to convert it into a fine uniform size suitable for use without further significant processing.

Title: Method and device for removing the husks of oil-bearing seeds, in particular sunflower seeds
Inventor: ROTENHAN FRIEDRICH-WILHELM VON
IPC: A23N5/00
Filed: 2000-08-18
Abstract: Oil seeds, preferably dried, are stirred and agitated in bulk, in a confined space with increase of mechanical pressure. They press and rub against each other releasing, pressing-out and grating the husks.   An Independent claim is included for corresponding equipment husking the oil seeds. Preferred features: To the bulk material, additional husks, already released, are recycled from a subsequent separation stage. Drying before husking separates the seed kernel from the husk. Especially in the case of sunflower seed, an interspace arises between kernel and husk. Mechanical pressure increase is limited to maximum values, limiting temperature increase to prevent oil exudation. Stirring also effects conveying through the unit. Seeds are charged in accordance with grain size, preferably sorted in size, from millimeter to millimeter. Seeds are dried with care, to a kernel residual moisture up to 10%, preferably about 4% in the case of sunflower seeds. Residual moisture is decreased by drying temperatures at least 10 degrees C below the boiling point of water. The equipment comprises a drum (100) with smooth surface. The agitator comprises a shaft (110) on which are attached square-cut, stirring rods (120) with leading impact edges (S). The rods extend from the axis to the drum inner wall, leaving little clearance. Their cross section is rectangular. Rods are spaced along the shaft, offset angularly with respect to each other, forming a helical line. Drum inlet and/or outlet cross sections are controlled, preferably in synchronism. The drum tapers conically towards the outlet. There is at least one preceding dryer.
