  • Patent number: 4017291
    Abstract: A process for the treatment of glass to modify various properties thereof. The process comprises the steps of applying a coating of at least one metal, preferably by vapor deposition, onto the surface of a SiO.sub.2 containing glass.

  • Patent number: 4014353
    Abstract: A fluid-cooled smoking device includes a housing for containing a liquid coolant, and a tubular member projecting into the housing for supporting a smoking bowl-ash receptacle assembly disposed upon and with the tubular member. Concentric tubular members within the ash receptacle portion of the assembly define a serpentine flow path whereby the smoke and fumes to be inhaled are initially air-cooled, and subsequently, the air-cooled smoke and fumes pass into the liquid coolant so as to be liquid-cooled prior to reaching the smoker. The ash receptacle accumulates burnt tobaccos and ash deposits and prevents the same from entering the liquid coolant whereby the latter remains clean for extended periods of time.

  • Patent number: 4002127
    Abstract: A cyclone structure is provided for use in controlling the flow of two fluid streams to create a localized inward radial flow. The structure includes a chamber having a side wall disposed concentrically about a longitudinal axis and having first and second transverse end walls attached to respective ends of the side wall. A discharge tube is mounted in the first end wall concentrically about this axis and projects into the chamber. First and second inlets are provided adjacent the respective end walls and means is provided to move fluid under pressure into these inlets and into the chamber. The fluid enters the chamber in two distinct fluid paths moving vortically about the axis in the same direction of rotation, and the respective energy flow rates of fluid in these paths are comparable. The paths are generally vortical within the chamber and progress axially towards one another before combining where they meet to create the localized inward radial flow.

  • Patent number: 3999329
    Abstract: A method of producing an atmosphere suitable for plant growth and providing an atmosphere comprising the steps of supplying hot flue gases, cooling the flue gases to condense the water vapor contained therein, allowing said condensed water vapor and the flue gases to remain in intimate admixture for a time period sufficient for the condensed water vapor to absorb at least a portion of the flue gases and promote inter-reaction, spraying the condensed water vapor within a substantially enclosed chamber, and passing the non-absorbed portion of the flue gases through said chamber at a relatively low velocity. There is also disclosed an apparatus adapted to carry out the method of the present invention.

  • Patent number: 3957482
    Abstract: In the production of iron powder from iron oxide, normally it is difficult and costly to obtain complete reduction by conventional techniques; the present process provides an improvement whereby iron oxide powder is coated with an additive capable of liberating elemental carbon under the reducing conditions encountered in a furnace enabling the iron oxide powder to be supported on a perforated belt whereafter the same is passed through a furnace or the like so that the reducing gases can penetrate into the mass supported on the belt and the inert gases produced by the reaction can escape through the perforations in the belt.
