PURPOSE:To quickly restrain an acceleration slip by up-shifting a little early jointly using the speed change control. CONSTITUTION:A TRC computer 1 compares the wheel speeds of four wheels and judges that there is an acceleration slip when a wheel speed difference between a driving wheel and a driven wheel exceeds a fixed value. A sub- throttle control output is sent to an actuator 6 to fully ope...

The yarn to be loosened is guided by slots (7;8); it is held on one side thereof and it is cut on the other side. Air is injected by a nozzle (13) for driving the cut end of the yarn into a channel (1), between the bottom (11) of this channel and the longitudinal edge of an adjacent flexible leaf (10) which is vibrated simultaneously at several hundreds of Hz. The air can escape sidewise through a...

An electrochemical storage device comprises an electrolyte which forms an ignitable gas under certain conditions during use. The electrochemical storage device is constituted by a tank and a lid which is joined in a liquid-tight manner thereto and in which the terminal pillars are brought out at the top. Furthermore, it has a labyrinth-type pressure equalization connection built into the lid to co...

The appts. to mend a broken yarn by thermal splicing, using heated air delivered under control to the splicing chamber, has a thermal sensor (90) with a small response time where the splicing air meets the splicing chamber (11). The sensor (90) generates a control signal to control the heater (58), to regulate the air temp.. The thermal sensor (90) registers the splicing air temp. and/or the time ...

A process and apparatus for removing alcohol from beverages includes removing alcohol from the beverage to a dialysate by dialysis in a dialysis chamber, and then removing the alcohol from the dialysate by vacuum in a vacuum stripping column, wherein the dialysate is cooled in a heat exchanger and thereafter in a cooling device prior to entry of the dialysate into the dialysis chamber and the dial...

A flotation machine comprises a cylindrical chamber having a tapered bottom to which there are secured a pipe for feeding a flotation pulp containing mineral particles of fine fraction, and a pipe for discharging gangue. Secured at the walls of the chamber is a trough for collecting froth concentrate and a group of pulp aerators, whereas arranged axially inside the chamber is a group of tapered sh...

PURPOSE:To always achieve efficient scraping effect by providing divided scraper pieces so as to be made possible to equally come into slide contact with the entire region of a filtering peripheral surface regardless of an abrasion degree without moving a scraper mechanism. CONSTITUTION:Spiral screw 10 is arranged in a cylindrical body 1 having a filtering peripheral surface to which filtering per...

PURPOSE:To obtain a high-quality thin film of a luminescent material to which a donor-acceptor pair luminescence center is homogeneously added by supplying the raw material of the donor-acceptor pair which forms a luminescence center from an independent evaporation source which differs from the raw material to a reaction system. CONSTITUTION:In a method for forming a thin film having a luminescenc...

PURPOSE:To improve weather resistance and lengthen a life by forming a first insulator layer and a second insulator layer of aluminium nitride film.
