Title: Bonding fibrous batts with thermosetting fiber-binders of certain epoxy resins
Inventor: BUCK GEORGE S
IPC: C09J163/00
Filed: 1996-07-08
Abstract: A process is described for producing a bonded, non-woven fibrous batt by the use of a dry, solid, particulate, latent-cross-linkable, thermosetting, fiber-binder. This fiber-binder is an intimate mixture of a solid epoxy resin and a cross-linking agent. The epoxy resin has (a) terminal epoxy groups; (b) an epoxide equivalent weight of above about 500; (c) a glass transition temperature above about 40 DEG  C.; and (d) a melting point above about 70 DEG  C. In the process the fiber-binder contacts the fibers to form a raw batt with the fiber-binder loosely adhering to the fibers of the batt. Then the raw batt is heated to a cross-linking temperature above the melting point of the fiber-binder but below the scorching or melting point of the fibers thereby melting the fiber-binder. The fiber-binder flows to intersections of the fibers and subsequently reacts the cross-linking agent with the terminal epoxy groups of the epoxy resin. This converts the raw batt into a hot cross-linked batt. The hot cross-linked batt is then cooled to room temperature. Batts are also described as is a process for hot molding these batts.

The ratio of the rotational speeds of the two rotors is between 2:1 and 4:1. Each rotor has a rotor shaft with a plurality of axially spaced mounting flanges, the tines being bolted to the flanges and extending generally tangentially of the rotor shaft.

Title: Controller for gas discharge lamps
Inventor: COCKRAM DAVID JOHN
IPC: H05B41/282
Filed: 1987-04-01
Abstract: A controller for a gas discharge lamp 18 supplies the lamp with a direct current which has been pulse-width modulated at a high frequency at switch 24, smoothed and passed through a polarity inversion circuit 14. The polarity inversion circuit periodically reverses the polarity of current supplied to the lamp to equalize electrode wear in the lamp 18. The controller senses the lamp voltage, current power or other characteristics and maintains at least one operating parameter of the lamp, for example the lamp current, constant. A warm up cycle allows this parameter to be adjusted for fast starting of the lamp.

Filed: 1987-04-27
Abstract: A bellows valve (A) has inlet and outlet passages (10,12) in fluid communication with a valve chamber (14) on opposite sides of a valve seat (18). A valve stem (C) has a first end (30) adapted for selective sealing engagement with the valve seat (18), and a second end (32) of the stem (C) is operatively connected with an actuator assembly (H). An expansible bellows (1) has a first end (40) secured to the valve stem (C) and a second end (42) sealingly connected to a closing member (E) so that a portion of the valve stem (C) is surrounded by the bellows. The closing member (E) engages an open end (16) of the valve body (B) and includes an annular or rounded sealing protrusion or bead (58) adapted for mating, sealing contact with a generally planar surface (60) on the valve body (B). The sealing bead (58) facilitates a reduction in or complete elimination of the use of lubricant between the valve body (B) and a bonnet nut (G), and this, in turn, promotes clean valve operation by removing a potential contaminant. A tapered surface (62) on the closing member (E) facilitates alignment with the valve body, and radial clearances between the closing member (E), valve bonnet (B), and bonnet nut (G) also facilitate alignment of the assembled valve components.

Title: Apparatus and method for the controlled lubrication and cleaning of conveyors
Inventor: BENNETT SCOTT P
IPC: B65G45/22
Filed: 2000-10-04
Abstract: A method for automatically cleaning and lubricating conveyor belt systems is disclosed. A microprocessor controlled control unit senses the movement of the conveyor belt and the presence of items, for example bottles, on the conveyor. The control unit initiates the application of lubricant, detergent and rinse water onto the conveyor according to the speed of the conveyor, the presence of items and the time passed since the previous application. If the conveyor is stationary, that is, is not in motion, no lubricant or cleaning solution is applied. If the conveyor is moving but no items are on the belt, a reduced amount of lubricant is dispensed onto the conveyor system. The conveyor cleaning and lubricating process may be carried out during normal production operations.

Title: Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging rheometer
Inventor: MANEVAL JAMES E
IPC: G01R33/563
Filed: 1994-10-31
Abstract: An apparatus and method for obtaining rheological information about a fluid using nuclear magnetic resonance is disclosed herein. A fluid flowing through a tube is subjected to nuclear magnetic resonance imaging signals to obtain the velocity profile of the fluid. The pressure gradient between two points along the tube is also obtained. The shear rate is then determined from the velocity profile, and the shear stress is determined from the pressure gradient. From a single velocity profile, data is obtained over shear rates ranging from zero at the center of the tube to the maximum shear rate at the tube wall. Alternatively, the velocity spectrum can be obtained and used in the same manner. The shear stress versus shear rate curve can thereby be obtained from a single nuclear magnetic resonance image taken at a specific value of the pressure gradient.
