  • Publication number: 20230191551
    Abstract: A method for cylindrical grinding of cylindrical workpieces on a grinding machine, in which an axes of rotation of a grinding disc and of the workpiece are aligned in parallel to one another and the grinding disc is moved relative to the workpiece in a longitudinal-axial direction of the workpiece during the grinding process. A first grinding disc is followed by a second grinding disc at a continuously constant distance. The distance is determined by the width of the first grinding disc and the remaining grinding parameters, such as the rotational speeds of the first grinding disc and of the workpiece and the feed rate in the longitudinal-axial direction, such that the second grinding disc grinds the helical error lines generated by the first grinding disc during the grind process. A control device adjusts the distance between the first and second grinding discs.

  • Patent number: 11286223
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of purifying a stream of crude hydrochlorofluoroolefin refrigerant produced by the reaction of 1,1,3,3 tetrachloropropene (R1230za) or 1,1,1,3,3-pentachloropropane (R240fa) with HF. The process includes a step of removing the cis-(Z) isomer by distillation of the crude refrigerant stream prior to a step of reacting the crude refrigerant stream with a base. The reaction with the base is a necessary step in production of the refrigerant and is done to remove HF and residual HCl from the crude refrigerant stream. Removal of the cis-(Z) isomer before the reaction with the base reduces the amount of toxic flammable trifluoropropyne (TFP) that is produced as a side-reaction during the reaction with the base. In addition, temperature control during the reaction with the base is less critical to minimizing the TFP production if the cis-(Z) isomer is first removed.

  • Patent number: 9390193
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a system, computer-implemented method, and a computer-readable medium for delaying the storage of data. Data that manipulates website data is provided from a web server to a client device in response to a request for a webpage. Data is initially stored in a temporary memory storage. The temporary memory storage is associated with a browser and stores data before data is moved to a persistent memory storage. A notification is generated that indicates that data was received and is intended to be stored persistently or manipulate, access or rely on website data in the persistent memory storage. Depending on the response to the notification, the system determines how data in temporary memory storage will be processed and whether data can be stored in the persistent memory storage or manipulate, access and rely on website data in the persistent memory storage.

  • Patent number: 6986820
    Abstract: A process and apparatus for registering a plurality of discrete components to a continuously moving first layer of material produces a disposable absorbent garment with improved alignment of the components on the first layer of material. The first layer has a plurality of reference marks positioned thereon. Various devices are used to compare distances between the reference marks to distances between corresponding components and synchronize a feed rate of the components to a feed rate of the first layer. After adhering the components to the first layer, the positions of the components relative to the reference marks are once again checked and, if necessary, the setpoint for the feed rate of the components is adjusted.
