Apparatus For Pulp Contaminant Removal
View pageUS Patent:
48971596, Jan 30, 1990
Filed:
Mar 7, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/165001
Inventors:
Randall L. Bone - Pisgah Forest NC
Albert P. Kriek - Asheville NC

Assignee:
P. H. Glatfelter Company - Spring Grove PA
International Classification:
D21F 700
D21G 900
D21G 900
US Classification:
162260
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for automatically detecting and removing contaminant particles from a moving pulp mat are provided, detection of the particles being accomplished using a light source for transmitting light to the pulp mat, a light detecting means for detecting decreases in the intensity of light across the pulp mat corresponding to positions or locations of contaminant particles in the mat, and a control package for generating signals corresponding to the detected positions to be used in the contaminant removal proceses, removal of the particles being accomplished by cutting a rectangular section containing the particle from the mat using a bank of fluid jet nozzles which produce longitudinal slits and transverse cuts in the pulp mat as the mat travels past the nozzle bank. The removal section also has a catch trough disposed at the side of the mat opposite the nozzles for receiving the fluid sprayed from the nozzles through the mat and also for receiving the rectangular sections cut from the mat, the catch trough being further equipped with flush water and effluent pipe connections to facilitate disposal of the removed sections of the mat.
Variable Ratio Chain Drive Employing Synchronous Flexible Sprocket Shifting
View pageUS Patent:
53542436, Oct 11, 1994
Filed:
Nov 9, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/150415
Inventors:
Albert P. Kriek - Arden NC
International Classification:
F16H 5530
F16H 700
F16H 700
US Classification:
474160
Abstract:
A variable speed ratio multiple sprocket and chain drive, particularly applicable to bicycles, using stacks of resilient sprocket rings, each of which is radially split to define resilient sectors. For shifting, the resilient sectors are axially deflected so that the rows of teeth of adjacent sprockets are aligned with one another, thereby permitting a roller chain entrained around one sprocket ring to transfer to an adjacent sprocket ring of different pitch diameter, thus changing the drive ratio. A control system is mechanically linked to a resilient sector deflection mechanism. The control system tracks which driving sprocket ring and which driven sprocket ring are engaged by the chain, and selects either the stack of driving sprocket rings or the stack of driven sprocket rings for shifting so as to allow a rider to change the drive ratio up or down at will.
