  • Patent number: 9551350
    Abstract: A device for uncoupling a bearing carrier in a turbomachine, the bearing carrier including an upstream part and a downstream part including a plurality of upstream orifices respectively facing a plurality of downstream orifices. The uncoupling device includes rupture screws each passing through an upstream orifice and a downstream orifice, and at least a mechanism for double centering of a rupture screw with respect to the upstream orifice and to the downstream orifice respectively. The mechanism for double centering is independent of the upstream and downstream parts of the bearing carrier and of the rupture screw, and is configured to collaborate with the upstream part of the rupture screw such that when the rupture screw breaks, the upstream part carries with it the mechanism for double centering. A turbomachine can include such an uncoupling device.

  • Publication number: 20130335336
    Abstract: An interactive lobby partition may be used to provide interactive information to users and/or to provide area or module integration within a larger space. The partition may include a first side with an interactive display device and/or digital travel information. The partition may also include a second side with a media center or cabinet for supporting and/or presenting media items. In some aspects, the partition may be placed between a media lounge and an elevator lobby. The partition may be placed such that the interactive display devices and/or digital travel information may be facing an elevator lobby or elevator waiting area. Further, the partition may also be placed such that the media cabinet or media center may be facing a media lounge with couches, chairs, and/or tables configured for consuming the media available via the media cabinet.

  • Patent number: 8338551
    Abstract: Method for the preparation of a blown film containing 300-600 gels/m2 of size in the range 100-2000 ?m as measured by an optical control system, in which the film is derived by extrusion from an ethylene-?-olefin copolymer. The method is carried out by preparing the copolymer in a particle forming polymerization process in the presence of a single site catalyst system containing a single site catalyst, a cocatalyst, and a support material.

  • Publication number: 20090233091
    Abstract: A method for the preparation of a polymer film containing 300-600 gels/m2 of size in the range 100-2000 ?m as measured by an optical control system (OCS) as hereinbefore described, said film being derived from an ethylene-?-olefin copolymer is characterised in that said copolymer is prepared in a particle forming polymerisation process in the presence of a single site catalyst system. The preferred single site catalyst system comprises a metallocene and the preferred polymerisation process is a gas phase process. The invention is particularly directed to blown films.

  • Publication number: 20090154863
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for decoupling a bearing bracket in a turbomachine, said bearing bracket having an upstream part and a downstream part respectively comprising a plurality of upstream holes and downstream holes through which stress-limiting screws pass, which device comprises, between each upstream hole and the stress-limiting screw that passes through it, a clearance that prevents any contact between the upstream hole and the stress-limiting screw, and is a device wherein the upstream part and the downstream part of the bearing bracket are in mutual contact via surfaces that form a dual centering means.
