  • Patent number: 6146268
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor for determining the structure-borne sound vibrations generated by the impingement of grains on a pulse detector in an agricultural machine for harvesting crops and to a device for operational monitoring of the sensor and improved signal evaluation.Such sensors are used to monitor threshing and separating performance at various points in a harvesting machine. Depending on the area of application, various forms of a pulse detector are used. These can have the shape of a plate, a tube, a rod or other similar profiles. Attached to these detectors are vibration detectors. A particularly strong connection between the vibration detector and the pulse detector is achieved by using a piezo-ceramic vibration sensor and its attachment by means of a screw connection.

  • Patent number: 5991383
    Abstract: A system and method for communication information between origination equipment and destination equipment, in which switching signal information is received from a calling party telephone network. Additionally, information is also received from origination equipment for use by destination equipment for displaying calling party numbers. A display for use with the destination equipment receives the information from the calling party telephone network. From the plurality of information received, a first code from the calling party telephone network identifies calling party number information, and a second code from the calling party telephone network identifies partitioning information of the first code relating to a convention of parsing of telephone numbers associated with the calling party telephone network.

  • Patent number: 5985227
    Abstract: A process is provided for removing sulfur compounds, such as carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide, mercaptans and hydrogen sulfide out of a gas, such as methane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen and methane, by saturating the sulfur compound contaminated gas with steam; hydrolyzing any carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide and mercaptans in the gas stream into hydrogen sulfide by contacting the steam and sulfur compound contaminated gas with a catalyst containing an inorganic support uniformly impregnated with a mixture of at least one oxide selected from Group VI transition metals and at least two oxides selected from Groups I, II, VI and VIII transition metals at a temperature of about 20.degree. C. to about 150.degree. C.; oxidizing the hydrogen sulfide in the gas exiting the previous hydrolysis step by contacting the hydrogen sulfide containing gas together with at least a stoichiometric quantity of air and/or oxygen with the catalyst at a temperature of about 15.degree. C. to about 50.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 5931579
    Abstract: A mixer-reactor for mixing at least two fluid substances and carrying out or initiating a reaction between them, wherein the mixer-reactor consists of a substantially rotationally symmetrical casing containing a mixing chamber having separate inlets for the at least two substances and an outlet, the inlet for the at least first substance being provided within the axis of the mixing chamber and the inlet for the at least second substance being constructed in the form of a plurality of nozzles arranged rotationally symmetrically to the axis of the mixing chamber, characterized in that a bolt which is displaceable in the direction of the nozzle axis is allocated to each nozzle, wherein the bolt is acting to remove the caking or clogging material from the nozzle.

  • Patent number: 5763350
    Abstract: Catalysts for removing sulfur compounds almost completely from industrial gases are made by impregnating a suitable support with an oxide of at least one element selected from Group VIB of the Periodic System of Elements and at least two other oxides of elements selected from Groups IB, IIB, VIB and VIIIB of the Periodic System of Elements. Industrial gases in which sulfur compounds are present are brought into contact with these catalysts under conditions such that the sulfur compounds are converted to elemental sulfur and thus removed from the industrial gas.

  • Patent number: 4261882
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the hydrolysis of milk protein using non-oxidising mineral acids at elevated temperatures, at which hydrolysis is performed in the presence of orthophosphorous acid and/or its salts and also of acid-activated montmorillonite to inhibit discoloration at temperatures of 60.degree.-100.degree. C. The method in accordance with the invention is technically simple and can be undertaken economically and it supplies the desired protein hydrolysate with high yield without the formation of undesirable by-products, especially undesirable dark substances, which result in discoloration of the end product.
