Abstract: The present invention restores the performance of a fuel cell by: operating the cell in a loaded current mode different from that of a normal operation for a predetermined time; supplying an oxidant gas and a fuel gas to an anode and a cathode respectively and outputting a current from a cell body with the polarity being inverted; supplying a pressurized gas to at least one of the cathode and anode in an amount not less than 1.5 times as much as that in the normal operation or supplying oxygen to the cathode; or injecting a cleaning solution into the cathode and anode through a gas flow path. Consequently, it is possible to effectively restore a degraded performance of a polymer electrolyte fuel cell caused by a long operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The clip (10) has a locking sleeve (18) mounted in a mounting opening of a painting body by a translational motion perpendicular to a general plane of a linear element. A support element (17) and the sleeve comprise complementary stop units which lock the clip in a deployed position and prevent its passage in an assembled position. The stop units, formed by lower walls (29, 46), allow passage of the clip in the assembled position after prior release of the stop units by the translational motion relative to the support element with respect to the sleeve in the plane of the linear element.

Abstract: Universal Remote Controls are designed for controlling a large amount of appliances. Each of these appliances needs to be controlled by using codes of its own code set. For this reason, Universal Remote Controls store multiple code sets, so that they are able to control any of the appliances by using the corresponding code set. A method is described for determining the right code set to be used for controlling an appliance. Thereto, the remote control sends one or more commands using the corresponding code of at least one of the multiple code sets to the appliance (3040). The code set to be used for controlling this appliance is determined based on at least a command sent to the appliance by a user of the remote control, in reaction thereto (3070).

Abstract: The invention concerns a process for the recovery of the uranium contained in an impure phosphoric acid. The impure acid is treated with an organic phase capable of extracting U (VI), and the resultant organic phase is then re-extracted with an aqueous solution containing complexing acid and an oxidizing-reducing agent in the reduced state, said oxidizing-reducing agent being capable of reducing U+6 to U+4 in said aqueous solution. The resultant aqueous phase is then subjected to electrochemical oxidation, followed by extraction with a second organic phase from which the uranium is recovered, the depleted aqueous solution being recycled to the re-extraction after electrochemical reduction, with the process comprising two organic phase cycles and a cycle of a complexing aqueous solution. The process is of particular interest when applied to the recovery and concentration of uranium contained in a wet process phosphoric acid.

Granted: 1984-12-27
Abstract: A two piece roller clamp for regulating the fluid flow rate through plastic tubing (16) by defining the size of the tubing lumen. A recurring problem in the prior art is that of the tendency of the tubing wall to cold flow when compressed under pressure which consequently alters the cross sectional areas of the lumen and, therefore, the fluid flow rate. The instant invention solves this problem by its construction which allows the roller to engage the tubing with a uniform force as the roller is moved longitudinally along the body. The clamp includes a U-shaped body (10) with a base (12) and two side walls (11) and a longitudinally movable roller (13) mounted in tracks (15) formed in the side walls. The roller (13) is biased against the roller bearing surface (22) running along the length of the base. Adjacent to the roller bearing surface (22) is a tube compression slot (30) having a lower wall (32) uniformly spaced below the roller. A channel (35) of varying cross-section is provided in the lower wall (32) of the tube compression slot. The roller (13) exerts a uniform, but minimal force on the tubing compressing it against the lower wall (32) of the slot (30) permitting the formation of a lumen defined by the contours of the channel (35).

Title: Z-bar guide apparatus and method of butt welding
IPC: B23K9/025
Filed: 1982-01-29
Granted: 1986-11-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for guiding the opposed edges of sheet metal (16) into substantially abutting edge-to-edge relationship with one another and thereafter welding said edges by a high energy welding source (17) to form a seam. The invention enables the continuous high speed butt welding of the sheet metal to form cylindrical bodies. The apparatus includes three elements (24, 25, 26) which are cooperatively secured in assembled relationship and thereby form opposed and converging guide channels (46, 47) which converge into open relationship with one another along the length of the apparatus so that the opposing edges of sheet metal (16) are guided into intimate abutting edge-to-edge relationship with one another. The elements (24 - 26) extend to a point adjacent the weld zone (W) in order to maintain the sheet metal edges in abutting relationship as they enter the weld zone. In another embodiment, two of the elements (25, 26) may include portions (65) which extend into and beyond the weld zone (W). Such portions are provided with a tapered opening (68) through which the high energy welding source (17) may be continuously focused relative to the point of the weld.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a dental spray hand piece which has a valve for controlling the flow of an agent through an agent line that extends through the hand piece to a spray nozzle and an arrangement for preventing dripping of the agent from an end of the nozzle when the valve stops flow of the agent through the line, characterized by the arrangement for preventing dripping including a hose section of elastic material being positioned between the valve and the nozzle, a thrust piece for acting on the hose section in an arrangement for moving the thrust piece from a position engaging the hose section and a second position partially deforming the hose section from an enlarged cross-section to a cross-section of the flow through the valve. Thus, when the valve stops flow the hose section resumes its enlarged cross-section which causes a suction to draw fluid in the line between the valve and the end of the nozzle inward from the end of the nozzle.
