  • Patent number: 5090225
    Abstract: A method for cooling and lubricating rolls and/or the rolled material in cold rolling of metal strips in a rolling mill stand. The method includes supplying emulsifiers as necessary and emulsions which contain at least one oil phase. The emulsion is prepared immediately in front of the rolls of the rolling mill stand or immediately in front of the strip inlet into the rolling gap formed by the work rolls by separately supplying the media which form the emulsion. Subsequently, the emulsion is collected behind the rolling mill stand and the emulsion is broken up and the liquid phases are separately processed and reused for forming the initial emulsion.

  • Patent number: 5089919
    Abstract: An information signal recording apparatus arranged to form a recording track on a recording medium by recording an information signal on the recording medium, in which the information signal is recorded on the recording medium in such state that a first tracking control signal, for effecting a first tracking operation during reproduction, is superimposed thereon, in the case where a stop of the recording track forming operation is not instructed, and the information signal is recorded on said recording medium in such state that a second tracking control signal, for effecting a second tracking operation during reproduction, is superimposed on the information signal, depending upon a timing when the stop of the recording track forming operation is instructed, whereby a position where the first tracking operation becomes impossible on the way of effecting the first tracking operation during reproduction is detected, so that a position of the step of the recording track forming operation on the recording medium c

  • Patent number: 5088926
    Abstract: An implant for the jawbone includes a shaft portion and a conical retention portion which is provided with displacement projections. The displacement projections are sickle-shaped retention wedges which are provided on the retention portion located opposite each other. Since the retention portion is conical and the retention wedges result in an oval cross-section, the implant can be inserted into the prepared alveolus having the same shape and a rotation of at most 90.degree. results in locking of the implant in the interradicular alveolar bone to provide primary stability.

  • Patent number: 5087319
    Abstract: The invention is directed to an apparatus for continuous fabrication of laminates comprising several layers of at least partially resin impregnated material webs which are extruded together. The material webs are taken off supply coils in the take off units and are subsequently stacked upon each other. The stacked material webs are then extruded into a laminate web in a double band press with application of area pressure and possibly heat. The laminate web is subsequently further processed in a grinding and cooling arrangement located downstream of the double band press, which consists of a grinding station and cooling station combined into one single device. Downstream of the grinding and cooling arrangement is a reel up arrangement for winding the laminate web upon supply coils or a transverse cutting station for subdivision of the laminate web into plates or panels.

  • Patent number: 5086831
    Abstract: An arrangement for the catalytic oxidation of the harmful components in a cooled carrier gas from a technical process. The arrangement includes two parallel gas ducts which are connected at one end through a bend and whose other ends are connected to gas lines for the carrier gas and for purified gas. The gas ducts are connected to each other through a three-stage thermal energy return unit. The exchanger stage of the thermal energy return units are arranged spaced from each other and are composed of individual heat tubes whose number increases from exchanger stage to exchanger stage. The size ratio of the heat-exchanging surfaces of heating part to cooling part of each exchanger stage decreases in flow direction of the carrier gas from exchanger stage to exchanger stage. The catalyst is integrated in the gas duct for the carrier gas immediately downstream of the heating part of the last exchanger stage.

  • Patent number: 5087147
    Abstract: An assembly of a tubular shaft member (3) preferably of fiber-reinforced plastics material and a hub member (1), the hub member having formations (5, 6) which engage the internal surface of the shaft member, and further having a surface between the formations so as to define an annular space. Passages communicate with such space at the end thereof of greatest resistance to adhesive flow, for injection of adhesive into the space and release of air therefrom, the configuration of the space causing a flow of adhesive during injection thereof which effectively drives all air out of the space. The space is configured, e.g. by being of varying radial dimension, to provide an increasing resistance to flow of adhesive in the space from one end of the space to the other.

  • Patent number: 5086404
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for the simultaneous, continuous and separate recording and measurement of head and body movements during standing and walking, including various optical markers mounted upon the head and the trunk of a test person, and a device for continuously receiving and recording optical signals from the markers, which device is stationarily fixed at a distance from the test person. The device being easy to handle, allows a time critical spectral analysis of the movement patterns, avoids overlapping of light tracings during recording of the optical signals, distortions of the measurements due to parallaxes when observing the body at various locations and central scotoma or an area of loss of visibility of the optical markers underneath of the device.
