Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved arc chamber/chute assembly in a circuit breaker for effective channelization of hot ionized gases through said arc chamber to enhance breaking capacity in circuit breakers. The assembly comprises back vent secured inside said arc chute assembly and front vent secured inside the assembly placed between the back vent and arc chute plates of the assembly. The front vent comprises a substantially T-shaped profile having a substantially horizontal portion along X-axis and a substantially vertical portion along Y-axis so as to define a substantially divergent nozzle profile in the said T-shaped profile such that at the time of high fault conditions in said arc chamber nozzle effect is generated due to high pressure build up in arc chamber assembly.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a contact actuating mechanism is provided with a rotary contact to make and break electrical contacts. An operating knob is connected an operating lever and to a connecting link through a U-shaped pin. The operating lever is engaged with a lock lever. The connecting link is also coupled to the rotary contact through a pivot so that the operating knob is moved to displace the connecting link to move the rotary contact to make and break with electrical contacts.

Abstract: Sealing arrangement for an internal tubesheet for tubular heat exchangers comprising, a gasket fitted between a shoulder and a tubesheet, the gasket being made of spiral wound construction but without any metallic rings and without any locating groove in the adjoining components. On the outer side of the tubesheet, a channel box is provided with its inner face resting on a shoulder provided on an outer diameter of the tubesheet while the outer face of the channel box is reduced in diameter and arranged to align with the centerline of the push bolts, the outer face of the channel box resting against and attached to an annular ring and the push bolts being provided in threaded holes that reach up to the outer face of an internal flange. The push bolts, when tightened, load the annular ring, which in turn loads the gasketed joint through the channel box and the tubesheet.

Abstract: Seal for tubular heat exchanger comprising groove with an inner edge; tongue of the diaphragm having front face extending in the radial direction and inner edge parallel to the axis of the channel; the face extending beyond the radial width of the groove in inward direction and overlapping the face of the shoulder of the channel in which the groove being provided. The tongue of the diaphragm being thus kept away from entering the groove; the diaphragm having flexibility to permit deflection of the tongue, the tongue of the diaphragm being loaded from outer side by the internal compression ring, the said internal compression ring being loaded in turn by the threaded push bolts/rods being fitted in the threaded holes on periphery of the threaded lock ring. This load is ultimately transferred to the joint between the gasket and face to achieve leak-proof joint.

Abstract: Threaded channel closure for tubular heat exchanger comprising channel header wherein the gasket is provided at the shoulder of the channel, tongue of the diaphragm is provided to apply pressure on the gasket to achieve the sealed joint, outer compression ring provided at back side of the diaphragm and being loaded by push bolts, provided at the periphery of threaded lock ring, outer compression ring being supported by channel cover, which is kept in position by threaded lock ring, characterized in that, the channel header being provided with plurality of radial holes on its periphery, approximately at the centerline of the width of the outer compression ring in its assembled condition; the outer compression ring being provided with plurality of radial through holes matching the set of holes in number as well as angular position.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system for improving the accuracy of the measurement of the osteoporosis condition of the human body parts especially bones using more than three parameters, viz., the broadband ultrasonic attenuation (BUA) quantity, the velocity of ultrasound (SOS) in the bone, the broadband ultrasonic back scattering (BUB) intensity, and the Width of received maximum (WORM) values are calculated from received ultrasound signals. The accuracy of each measured diagnostic parameter is improved by measuring the tissue thickness and the squish amount in the coupling pad instead of assuming constant thickness for the tissue. The several operating modes of the device are controlled and the frequency and the timing of the emitted ultrasounds signals are adjusted by using a field programmable gate array. The error generated in the measurement of the bone mineral density due to the variation in the anatomy and the size of the foot, is removed by using a removable footpad.

Abstract: The embodiment provide an assembly of contact indication and label holder using the same component for switching devices to provide safety indications to the technicians or end users. The assembly comprises of a tag and label holder. Tagging arrangement consists of an indication window for indication status of MCB i.e. ON/OFF and two hinges for holding label holder. The component also has two windows, which are intended for locking of label holder and groove for holding indicating paper. The user can write details on this indicating paper i.e. with which place it is connected and other details. The label holder has an inbuilt lens for giving contact indication a zooming effect for clear differentiation between red and green color of indication flag.
