Title: Flare for burning combustible gas
Inventor: CARSWELL STEPHEN
IPC: F23G5/50
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: A flare (1) suitable for burning landfill gas is supplied with the landfill gas via a supply pipe (2). The supply pipe (2) feeds separate burners (3,4,5) via respective control valves (6,7,8). As supplied, the flare is designed to meet current regulatory standards and may typically be designed to replace a combustion temperature of approximately 85% degrees centigrade and a retention time of 0.3 seconds over a turndown ratio of 5:1. With a view to allowing more precise control of the flare operating conditions to meet subsequently imposed regulatory standards the flare is designed to be modified after installation to provide combustion air control. Combustion air control may conveniently be provided in response to combustion monitors and may involve the use of force draught primary and secondary air admission.

Title: Division and square root calculating circuit
Inventor: MATHENY DAVID TERRENCE
IPC: G06F7/52
Filed: 1999-03-08
Abstract: An iterative division and/or iterative square root circuit 20 uses quotient digits q j+1  within the calculation that are dependent upon the input divisor D or radicand A and current partial remainder or partial radicand P j  for the cycle reached. As the input divisor D or radicand A is fixed throughout the calculation, the critical path through the iterative circuit may be speeded up by preselecting and storing a subset QC of quotient digit values using a primary quotient digit selecting circuit 18, 22 operating in dependence upon the divisor D or radicand A and independently of the partial remainder or partial radicand P j . Within the iterative circuit 20, the quotient digits q j+1  to be used for each cycle can then be selected from this subset QC by a secondary quotient digit selecting circuit 24 in dependence upon the partial remainder or partial radicand P j  and independent of the divisor D or radicand A.

Title: Synchronous DMA transfer protocol
Inventor: KVAMME ERIC
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1999-05-25
Abstract: A synchronous DMA burst transfer method is provided for transferring data between a host device and a peripheral drive device connected by an ATA bus. The method provides synchronous data transfer capability in an asynchronous system by having one device in charge of both a strobe signal and a data signal. When a host read or write command is delivered to the peripheral drive device, the peripheral device decides when to start the synchronous DMA burst. For a read command (Fig.4a), the peripheral device requests the synchronous DMA burst then drives a data word onto the ATA bus after the host acknowledges that it is ready to begin the burst. After allowing time for the data signal to settle, the peripheral device toggles a strobe signal from a high state to a low state. The host sees the edge of the strobe signal at which time the host latches the data word on the bus. Additional data words can be driven on the bus and the strobe signal can be retoggled to latch the additional data words into the host. After all data words have been transferred, the strobe signal is returned to a high state so that it is ready to be used for another host command. By reducing the hold time of the receiving device and controlling the hold time of the sending device, the method reduces timing delays and provides a data transfer rate up to 66.7 MBytes/sec. The method is easily implemented in existing systems and is backward compatible with existing transfer protocols.

Title: Overvoltage detecting circuit
Inventor: KITANO JIYUNJIROU
IPC: H04M3/08
Filed: 1981-01-28
Abstract: PURPOSE:To achieve an overvoltage detecting circuit suitable for circuit integration, by making the current detection from an overvoltage applied terminal with a current detecting current mirror circuit. CONSTITUTION:Current detection from an overvoltage applied terminal A is made at a current detecting current mirror circuit 2. In this case, since the operating condition of the overvoltage detection circuit is not subject to the absolute value of a drive current to the current mirror circuits 2, 3, but only the relative ratio, the drive current of the current mirror circuit 2 can be very small. As a result, the input current of the overvoltage detecting circuit can be very small, allowing to obtain an overvoltage detecting circuit with very high impedance. Further, when no overvoltage is applied, no input current flows to the overvoltage detecting circuit through the back blocking function of a diode 1, and the effect of load of the overvoltage detecting circuit at normal operation can be avoided completely.

Title: Electrolytic treating device
Inventor: MATSUURA MUTSUMI
IPC: C25D7/06
Filed: 1992-01-23
Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide the electrolytic treating device which passes an electrolyte uniformly along a strip and uniformly electrolytically treat the entire area of the strip and to reduce the maintenance cost thereof. CONSTITUTION:Sealing materials 64 respectively having insulating and elastic characteristics are provided in a gap G between one end of the outer periphery of a rotary drum 60 and an electrode 56 and a gap G between the other end of the outer periphery of the rotary drum 60 and the electrode 56. As a result, the flow passage of an electrolyte 66 is formed along the outer periphery of the rotary drum 60. The strip 68 travels in this flow passage and, therefore, the strip 68 flows uniformly along the strip 68. Then, the entire area of the strip 68 is uniformly electrolytically treated. Since the electrolyte 66 is sealed by the outer periphery of the rotary drum 60, the need for sealing the shaft and side walls of the rotary drum is eliminated. Then, the large opening of the side wall 52B of a treating chamber 52 is enabled and, therefore, the easy exchange of the rotary drum 60 and the electrode 56 is possible. As a result, the maintenance cost is reduced.
