摘要:
A plug for a tubular service entrance of a conduit, wherein the plug includes a core body having a central hollow channel extending from a first end to second end of the core body; at least one flexible fin extending radially outwardly from the core body and having an outer diameter greater than the inner diameter of the tubular service entrance so that the plug is adapted to fit tightly into the tubular service entrance, and wherein the at least one flexible fin is deformable to adapt to the shape of the service entrance and apply a lateral force against the inner diameter of the service entrance. A plug dispensing magazine for storing and dispensing service entrance plugs to be service entrances of a conduit prior to installation of a liner in the conduit and a method of sealing the service entrances.
摘要:
A method and system of detecting a service entrance in a conduit having a rehabilitation liner, comprising generating heat using a heat source; introducing the heat into the lined conduit; allowing the lined conduit to cool; generating a thermal image of the lined conduit using an infrared camera system; detecting temperature differentiations in the lined conduit in order to detect a service entrance wherein the service entrance is a non-protruding service entrance, a partially-protruding service entrance or a service entrance in a saddle fixed to the conduit.

An improved electrochemical generator is disclosed. The electrochemical generator includes a thin-film electrochemical cell which is maintained in a state of compression through use of an internal or an external pressure apparatus. A thermal conductor, which is connected to at least one of the positive or negative contacts of the cell, conducts current into and out of the cell and also conducts thermal energy between the cell and thermally conductive, electrically resistive material disposed on a vessel wall adjacent the conductor. The thermally conductive, electrically resistive material may include an anodized coating or a thin sheet of a plastic, mineral-based material or conductive polymer material. The thermal conductor is fabricated to include a resilient portion which expands and contracts to maintain mechanical contact between the cell and the thermally conductive material in the presence of relative movement between the cell and the wall structure. The electrochemical generator may be disposed in a hermetically sealed housing.

An electrical contact for connecting current collecting elements of a stack of electrochemical laminates. The electrical contact is formed of a current collecting terminal and a ductile electrically conductive material. The current collecting terminal has a pair of arms defining a space therebetween for receiving the ends of the current collecting elements as stacked. The ductile electrically conductive material is located within the space and is adapted to form an electrical bridge between the ends of the current collecting elements and the current collecting terminal.
