    摘要: A line driver system for digital communication, using logic-level voltages, between an electronic transmitter-receiver device and an electronic receiver device, such as between a computer and a typewriter, a line printer or a cathode ray tube, has the transmitter-receiver device at a location remote from the receiver device. An output of the transmitter-receiver device is electronically coupled to an input of the receiver device using one line of a communications bus. This output of the transmitter-receiver device is coupled to that line of the bus through an optical isolator and then through a power booster. The receiver device has an output that provides a voltage signal when the receiver device is switched on-line. This voltage signal is provided at that output of the receiver device when the receiver device is capable of transforming digital information, that is provided at its input, to a readable form that is printed or displayed by the receiver device. This output of the receiver device is coupled through another optical isolator and through another power booster to a second line of the bus so that this second line of the bus receives a voltage signal when the receiver device is in the on-line condition. This second line of the bus is electronically coupled to an input of the transmitter-receiver device that senses the presence of this signal at that input prior to initiating a transmittal of digital information as logic-level voltages to the first line of the bus to provide logic-level voltages at the input of the receiver device. Each power booster has a high current gain amplifier with unity voltage gain. When the receiver device is also a transmitter device another output of the receiver device is electronically coupled through an optical isolator and a further power booster to a third line of the bus that is electronically coupled to another input of the transmitter-receiver device so that digital information as logic-level voltages are received from the receiver device by the transmitter-receiver device.

    摘要: During the use of process equipment it is necessary to position control valves, change analog set-point signals for process controllers, move thermocouples to specific positions in thermowells, etc. A computer control system for these operations utilizes binary information on three sets of bits of a bus and an execute signal on another bit provided by a computer, usually at a remote area, to select the device of the equipment to be changed and to make the change. The system includes: an information interface card; a number of actuator module cards; decoder/demultiplexer means; and device select means. The interface card is connectable to first and second sets of bits of a bus that is connectable to additional systems. The device select means is connected to a third set of bits of the bus. The binary information to the device select means results in a signal only at one of its outputs, each output being connected to a different system. For the computer control system that output is connected to the input of first inverter means on the interface card. Second inverter means on the interface card is connectable to that another bit of the bus to receive the execute pulse to initiate the operation of the system, if selected by the device selector means. First and second gate means on the card have for each a number of gates with first and second inputs and an output. Means connected to these first inputs of the first and second gate means are connectable to different bits of the first and second sets, respectively, of bits of the bus. The second inputs of the first and second gate means are connected to the output of the first inverter means to open the gates when that inverter means is provided the device select signal. The inputs of the decoder/demultiplexer are connected to the outputs of the gates of the second gate means. Each actuator module card includes: storage buffer means having inputs corresponding in number to the number of gates of the first gate means, a corresponding number of outputs, and an additional input to receive a load signal to provide at those outputs retained binary information corresponding to the signals at the outputs of the gates of the first gate means at the completion of the load signal; means responsive to binary information at the outputs of the storage buffer means to provide at least one signal to change the operation of a device of the process equipment; a gate; and additional inverter means having an input and having its output connected to an input of the gate, while the output of the gate is connected to the load input of the storage buffer means. Another input of that gate on each module card is connected to the output of the second inverter means on the interface card to provide a load signal to the storage buffer means, when the additional inverter means of that card is signalled by the decoder/demultiplexer means to signal the means to change the device of the process equipment. The additional inverter means have their inputs connected to different outputs of the decoder/demultiplexer means.

    摘要: Aqueous streams contaminated with minor amounts of organic materials are separated into an aqueous fraction which is concentrated with respect to the organic contaminants and a water fraction relatively free of the organic contaminants by a method which includes a unique combination of reverse osmosis (RO) and ultrafiltration (UF). The organic contaminants include substances having molecular weights of less than 10,000 which are soluble in the aqueous stream initially but have limited solubility ranges and are precipitated therefrom upon concentration. The contaminated aqueous stream is circulated from the high pressure compartment of a RO unit to the high pressure compartment of an UF unit, then to the low pressure compartment of the UF unit, and then back to the high pressure compartment of the RO unit. The contaminants are concentrated in the high pressure compartment of the RO unit, and a portion thereof is precipitated or otherwise rendered amenable to removal along with the UF concentrate upon passing the RO concentrate from the high pressure compartment of the RO unit to the high pressure compartment of the UF unit. Soluble organic contaminants remaining in the aqueous stream are removed in the UF permeate and are recycled back to the high pressure compartment of the RO unit for further concentration and precipitation, followed by recycling to the high pressure compartment of the UF unit for removal.

    摘要: The continuous in-line melt flow rate control system (40; 100) is coupled to a mixer/extruder system (10; 97) including a polymer, stabilizer and degradent feeding system (12, 16, 18; 102) supplying mixed materials to the inlet end of an extruder (24; 108) having a die head (26) at the outlet end thereof. The control system (40; 100) is coupled between a rheometer (42; 112) which monitors a slip stream (46; 110) of melt from the extruder (24; 108) and a ratio controller (48; 93) in the feeding system (12, 16, 18; 102). The control system (40; 100) includes a rheometer (42; 112) which monitors the viscosity of the slip stream of melt from the extruder (24; 108) upstream from the die head (26) and converts the monitored viscosity value to a process signal (F) and a controller (44; 84; 101) that compares the process signal (F) with a set point value (A) related to a target melt flow rate and generates a correction signal (B, C, D) when there is a difference between the process signal (F) and the set point value (A). The correction signal (D) is supplied to the degradent ratio controller (48; 93) for adjusting the amount of degradent added to the polymer fed to the extruder (24; 108) in response to the deviation of the process signal (F) from the set point value (A).

    摘要: At the general area of a set of BCD counter means, each to contain individual accumulated counts, a system, called a multi-counter register, is generally located for its use that permits the individual reading of the counter means in a selective mode by local readout means at the general area or by a computer at a remote area by the use of a small number of address channels extending from the location of the counter means to the computer. The multi-counter register includes data storage means, having inputs to receive digital information and having outputs to transmit that digital information, sets of gate means that are connected in parallel at their outputs to these inputs of the storage means and that have their inputs connectable to different BCD counter means, means responsive to signals, including signals providing digital information, to enable selectively one of said sets of gate means so that the BCD counter means connected to that enabled set of gate means is operatively connected to said inputs of said data storage means for transfer of digital information from that BCD counter means to said storage means when it can be loaded, said signal-responsive means being operatively connected to said sets of gate means, and means to provide at least one signal to another input of said storage means so that it can be loaded at said inputs, connected to said sets of gate means, with the digital information in that BCD counter means connected to that set of gate means enabled by said signal-responsive means, said signal-providing means being operatively connected to said another input of said storage means. In one construction of the invention, in which there is selection and readout by a computer, the information entered into the storage means of the multi-counter register from one of the counter means is transmittted serially to the computer. Illustratively in that construction the storage means is shift register means. In another construction of the invention the information is transmitted in a parallel manner from the storage means of the multi-counter register to the computer. Illustratively in that construction the storage means includes data latch means. The system, when having computer selection and readout, can include local readout means. In that case, there are means for manual interrogation of any desired counter means and means to prevent the operation of the manual interrogation during the operation by the computer of the multi-counter register through the operations of enabling selected sets of gate means by the signal-responsive means, enabling the storage means to be loaded with information in the counter means, and transmitting the digital information to the computer.
