Patent EP-0852986-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MARHOFER WILLIAM ELI
IPC: B23K9/028
Filed: 1998-01-13
Abstract: A mobile automated pipeline welding and quality control system comprising a gas
metal arc welding carriage and a weld data monitor and acquisition unit. The welding
carriage carries a welding torch, wire feed device for feeding consumable wire to the
torch, an oscillator for oscillating the torch and a motorized drive mechanism for moving
the carriage about a weldment. A controller for the carriage includes digital control
circuitry for dosed loop control of the drive, oscillator and wire feed devices. By default,
the controller operates each device at one of a plurality of pre-programmed nominal
speeds selected from a mode table. The controller is responsive to drive, oscillation and
wire feed speed variation signals under the control of an operator, and varies the speed
of each device within speed ranges which are selected to ensure compliance with
welding specifications. The monitor has voltage and current transducers for measuring
current and voltage at the welding torch. The controller supplies the monitor with speed
data relating to the drive, oscillator and wire feed devices. All of this information can be
displayed and recorded in the monitor's memory. In addition, the monitor can compute
and display the heat input into the weld based on the detected welding parameters. This
information allows the operator to make minute adjustments during the welding process
to ensure that a weld falls within specifications.

Abstract: A multiconductor electrical cable (10) for use in a subterranean wellbore includes
at least one electrical conductor (12) surrounded by one or more layers (14) of insulating
material, such as EPDM. A fluid barrier, such as an extruded layer (16) of lead or a lead
alloy, surrounds the insulating material. To protect the fluid barrier from damage during
the subsequent armouring process, a non-braided material (18) is applied, as an extrusion
or a tape. The non-braided material can be applied immediately after the fluid barrier is
applied, not as a separate process, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the fragile
fluid barrier, and at a cost less than the braided materials used in the past.

Abstract: The method involves generating control signals in the form of command and state signals for the drive engine (1) and transmission (2), whereby a desired gradient for the gear ratio is defined. The desired acceleration or driven revolution rate gradient is computed from the drive lever setting and instantaneous vehicle speed using a characteristic field. A desired gear setting is derived from the desired acceleration and current engine speed. A limited desired gear setting is derived from the desired gear setting so that the engine speed does not fall below a value that is a function of the position of the engine power setting element. The transmission is adjusted accordingly and the drive parameter for the power control element is derived directly from the drive lever setting.

Abstract: A unified junction structure which is obtained by jointing a rare-earth
magnet (2) and an alloy material which is a high melting point metal or a high
specific strength material by hot isostatic pressing and by solid state diffusional
joining and a structure which is obtained by placing a thin layer of the high
melting point material between the rare-earth magnet (2) and the alloy materials
(3 and 4) which are a high specific strength material and joining the layers and
materials into one body. The hot isostatic pressing is such that an object prepared
by stacking the rare-earth magnet and the high melting point metal layers is put
into an enclosed high pressure vessel, a predetermined pressure is applied to the
object at a predetermined temperature in an inert gas atmosphere for a
predetermined time and the object is pressed uniformly isostatically by the
synergistic effect of pressure and temperature and jointed integrally. By this
method, a junction structure which can be integrally jointed with another metal
member while the brittleness and the lack of rigidity, elasticity, etc. of the rare-earth
magnet are covered and magnetic characteristics are not deteriorated.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for treating pain at a specific site with an effective concentration of capsaicin or analogues thereof are described. The methods involve providing anesthesia to the site where the capsaicin or analogues thereof is to be administered, and then administering an effective concentration of capsaicin to the joint. The anesthesia can be provided directly to the site, or at remote site that causes anesthesia at the site where the capsaicin is to be administered. For example, epidural regional anesthesia can be provided to patients to which the capsaicin is to be administered at a site located from the waist down. By pretreating the site with the anesthetic, a significantly higher concentration of capsaicin can be used. Effective concentrations of capsaicin or analogues thereof range from between 0.01 and 10% by weight, preferably between 1 and 7.5% by weight, and more preferably, about 5% by weight. This provides for greater and more prolonged pain relief, for periods of time ranging from one week to several weeks. In some cases the pain relief may be more sustained because the disease that underlies the pain may improve due to a variety of factors including enhancement of physical therapy due to less pain in the soft tissues which may foster enhanced mobilization of soft tissues, tendons, and joints.

Abstract: The invention relates to a directional clutch with a drive element (10-120) and an output element (11;101, 102;130, 131) between which clamping elements (13, 14, 110) are arranged. Said clamping elements are connected to the output element in such a way that they turn without moving in relation to the direction of rotation of the output element both in a free-running position and in a torque transmitting position. The clamping elements are moved in a ring-shaped guide element (12) of the driving element in the free-running position and are blocked in said guide element (12) in the torque transmitting position. According to the invention, the output element consists of radial guides or borings (17;103, 104) each containing a projecting clamping body pin (15,16;111). In the first-mentioned case, the output element can be adjusted in an off-center position relative to the driving element. When adjusted in an offset position the clamping elements cyclically pass through a torque transmitting load path and a load-free path and transfer the occurring torque as they pass from the load-free path to the arched load path through non positive and/or positive engagement with the driving element.
