Title: Electric mold clamp
Inventor: BOTT JAMES A
IPC: B29C45/66
Filed: 1995-05-12
Granted: 2004-12-07
Abstract: An electric mold clamping apparatus (20) and system are disclosed. A clamping mechanism (80) containing a pair of clamping members (40) is activated by an electric motor (62). The electric motor (62) operates a threaded piston (76) with acme threads which in turn operate a drive plate (110) to extend and retract the clamping members (40). The clamping members (40) are used to hold a mold plate in an injection molding machine (22). The clamping members (40) are pivotally attached to a drive plate mechanism and have a surface which mates with a wedge cam (140) to force the clamping member (40) against the mold plate. The stroke of the clamping mechanism (80) is regulated by an amperage draw on the electric motor (162). A limit switch (162) is used to terminate the end of the retracting stroke. An indicator light (194) is used to indicate the clamping position of the device (20).

Granted: 1999-09-28
Abstract: In an encoding/decoding device operable in response to an input speech signal by means of an adaptive transform coding to produce an output encoded speech signal, the input speech signal is encoded by a speech analyzer section into encoded speech signal data by means of an adaptive orthogonal transformation, and the encoded speech signal data is decoded into an output speech signal by a speech synthesis section.      The speech analyzer section includes a spectral envelope intensity estimating means for estimating intensity of a spectral envelope of the input speech signal, and includes means for encoding frequency components into which the speech signal is decomposed by the adaptive orthogonal transformation with phase information selectively removed from a part of the frequency components, the encoding being based on the intensity of the spectral envelope intensity estimating means. The speech synthesizer section includes means for assigning pseudo-phase information to each of the frequency components from which the phase information is selectively removed.

Title: Filter unit for filter press
Inventor: TSUCHIDA KUNIHIKO
IPC: B01D25/12
Filed: 1997-01-24
Granted: 2000-08-08
Abstract: Since a filter unit is formed by causing an upper portion support bar for a filter cloth put on a filtering surface of a filter plate to be engaged to a washing pipe integrally provided for the filter plate, a filtering mechanism portion of a filter press can easily be formed by mounting the filter units by a predetermined number. Moreover, the operation control and maintenance of the filter press can easily be performed.
Patent CA-2197290-C (CA)
Inventor: FELLMAN HANNU ANTERO
IPC: D21B1/02
Filed: 1997-02-11
Granted: 2000-04-11
Abstract: A wood chip conditioner that uses at least two closely spaced, counter-rotating rolls having a regular, wave shaped profile formed into their surfaces having a repeating pattern of peaks and valleys that radially circumscribes the roll and which are preferably the same dimension and offset from each other so that a peak on one roll is in registry with a valley on the other roll and form a nip through which oversized wood chips traverse. The chips passing through the nip are destructured by being bent and compressed by the surfaces on the rolls, which produces internal cracks along the grain of the wood without penetrating the chips. The rolls are also designed to avoid breaking or fracturing the chips, which would increase the occurrence of undesirable pins and fines. The surface of the peaks preferably also have shallow, equally-spaced grooves that extend axially. The grooves provide an edge that catches and pulls the chips into and through the nip. The bending action to which the chips traversingthrough the nip are subjected also loosens or dislodges the bark on the outer surface of the chips by breaking the bond between the bark and the chip. The present invention also includes a method of using the wood chip conditioner to destructure and remove moisture from fuel chips.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un accessoire d'éclairage (10) à blocage commandé du flux lumineux (26). L'accessoire (10) comporte un réflecteur (16) et une lampe à décharge de forte intensité (18) qui nécessitent un temps de réamorçage ou de mise en température pour fonctionner à pleine luminosité ou intensité. Une pièce de couverture (26) est fixée au réflecteur (16) et peut passer d'une position flux libre à une position flux bloqué. Le mouvement de la pièce de couverture (26) est immédiat, si bien que le blocage du flux lumineux est instantané. La configuration de l'accessoire est telle que la pièce (26) peut rester en position flux bloqué durant des périodes indéterminées, même si la lampe à arc continue de fonctionner à pleine puissance, et il n'en résulte aucun échauffement préjudiciable aux différents éléments constitutifs. En outre, la pièce de couverture (26) permet de réguler l'éclairage et d'utiliser des accessoires d'effets spéciaux. On décrit également une ouverture (66), pratiquée dans la pièce de couverture (26), qui peut être alignée avec la source lumineuse lorsque ladite pièce (26) est en position flux bloqué. Différentes pièces rapportées (78A, 135, 77) peuvent être insérées dans l'ouverture, ou on peut ouvrir et fermer cette ouverture de manière indépendante afin de créer des effets spéciaux ou des effets de scène de théatre, y compris le changement de couleur.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plastic screw top for bottles, consisting of a cap with a substantially cylindrical casing (1), with an internal screw thread (8) for screwing onto the external screw thread (11) of a bottle neck (10), and with a substantially disk-like top plate, (2) and a substantially cylindrical sealing strip (4), extending axially from the inside of the top plate (2), and having an outside diameter approximately equal to the bottle neck outside diameter, or slightly larger, and having an inside diameter (2R2) clearly smaller than the bottle neck outside diameter (D). The invention seeks to create a plastic screw top having the above described properties, and which, in the case of slight damage or deformation of the bottle neck edge, prevents leakage in a more reliable manner, and which should furthermore, if possible, be slightly deformable.  The invention also seeks to simplify its production with an injection moulding tool that is as simply built as possible. To this end, the invention proposes that inside the cylindrical sealing strip (4), a further, substantially cylindrical sealing olive-shaped button (3) is radially fitted, the outside diameter (2R1) of which, at least in the area near the top plate and opposite the sealing strip (4), is bigger than the inside diameter (d) of the bottle neck (10) for which the top is intended.
