Abstract: An apparatus for coating a travelling web (5), including supply systems (10,15,16;31,33;41;47,49;73) for the supply of coating agent (11) to the web (5), the systems including a metering device (15;31;41;47,49;75;77) extending across the whole width of the web and which by an intermittent contact surface (27,29;37,39;43,45;47;49) provides intermittent engagement with the web (5) or a backing member (3) against which the web subsequently comes to engagement, for the deposition of strands of coating agent (11) on the web (5) or the backing member (3).
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining the concentration of a substance which is bonded to particles in a flowing medium, where said substance can be present in varying concentrations, a light beam (I.sub.0) being transmitted in the medium and light (I.sub.r) directly reflected from the particles being detected for obtaining a signal which is proportional to the intensity of the reflected light, said signal being used as a measure of the concentration of the substance conditional on particle concentration and opticle properties of the particles being kept constant. Detection is carried out without light passing straight through the medium, by the particle concentration of the sample taken being selected sufficiently great so that the quantity of directly reflected light will be maximum.
Abstract: The invention relates to a device in viscosity meters for measuring the viscosity of liquid having a large number of contaminants and a low viscosity, the meter including an inner cylinder (5) rotatably mounted in a stationary, outer cylinder (1) in a liquid projecting from a drive unit (12), there being a gap (4) forming a measuring zone between the cylinders (1,5) liquid being propelled through the gap with the aid of a propeller (3) arranged in front of the inner cylinder (5) and in a cavity (10) in the outer cylinder (1). The inner cylinder (5) is provided with an edge (6) projecting out into the gap (4) and the outer cylinder (1) has at least one slot (7) extending in its longitudinal direction and in the flow direction of the liquid, for enabling discharge of the contaminants fastening between the edge (6) and the outer cylinder (1), a self-cleaning strainer system thus being achieved, where the particles in the liquid only negligibly disturb measurement.
