  • Publication number: 20140137832
    Abstract: A sealing sleeve for sealing between piston and cylinder wall in internal combustion engines with a height in the direction of piston movement that is at least three times as large as its width in the radial direction of the cylinder having a pressurised annular cut out (6 in FIG. 2) in that outer surface of it that contacts the cylinder wall.

  • Patent number: 6903708
    Abstract: The invention relates to a viewing instrument wherein the image being viewed by the user may be frozen owing to the provision of a memory function. In connection with the freezing of the image, the latter may be magnified in such a manner that a highly magnified image may be viewed without such discomfort as is due to shaking movements of the image while the user may perform a wide-angle-of-vision search for an image to be magnified.

  • Patent number: 6883309
    Abstract: Method and apparatus for treating a gas flow including guiding the gas flow through a gas treatment unit (18) adapted for filtering particles in the gas flow, and eliminating the particles in the gas treatment unit (18). Particles are filtered from the gas flow by means of accumulating the particles in, or in connection with, a number of ducts (21) forming part of the gas treatment unit (21) during passage of the gas flow through the gas treatment unit (18). The temperature of the gas flow is controlled along the ducts (21) to a value that provides combustion of the particles, and eliminates the filtered particles in the gas treatment unit (18) by means of combustion in the ducts (21). An improved treatment of a gas flow is provided, in particular in connection with exhaust gas purification in a diesel engine, for eliminating particles in its exhaust gases.

  • Patent number: 6845612
    Abstract: Method and arrangement for treatment of a gas-flow in connection with a NOx reducing catalyst (18) that include guiding the gas-flow through an exhaust gas treatment unit (18) having several ducts (21) with exchange of heat between the ducts (21). The ducts (21) are connected to an inlet and an outlet, respectively, at the exhaust gas treatment unit (18) so that the gas-flow occurs during exchange of heat between incoming and outgoing flows. Reduction of NOx compounds in the gas-flow is accomplished by means of the NOx reducing catalyst (18). An adaptation of the temperature of the exhaust gas treatment unit (18) is affected to the prevailing operating condition of the NOx reducing catalyst (18). The method and apparatus enable provision of the required exhaust gas temperature for NOx reduction, while also accommodating the temperature limitations imposed by sulphur absorption and regeneration subsystems.

  • Patent number: 6207116
    Abstract: Catalytic purification device for purifying air or gas by heat treatment with a catalyst. The catalyst is carried on a patterned strip or membrane that is folded in accordion style, forming two groups of parallel flow channels with simple connections for incoming and outgoing flows. Good heat economy is achieved by heat exchange between the incoming and outgoing flow of gases.
