摘要:
A system for the continuous dielectrophoretic separation of mixtures of particulate and granular materials by passing the materials through a divergent electric field created in a fluid dielectric medium by applying a voltage to an electrode configuration including a rotatable cylindrical-shaped electrode having a non-uniform conductor surface and a stationary perforate electrode spaced therefrom to define a contact zone. The particles having dielectric constants lower than that of the fluid medium are collected through the perforate electrode while those particles having dielectric constants higher than that of the fluid medium are attached to and separated by the rotatable electrode.
摘要:
A shingle is provided having a headlap section and a buttlap section with at least one portion of the buttlap section having a relatively uniform color and another portion of the buttlap section having a color gradient or gradation from light to dark. An illusion of depth or thickness is created on the portion of the buttlap section having the color gradient. The buttlap section defines in part the exposed weather surface of the associated shingle. The relatively uniform color portions may be formed on tabs or dragon teeth and the color gradient formed on a backer sheet disposed beneath the tabs. Openings between adjacent tabs expose the color gradient to view. A plurality of horizontal striations may be used to establish the desired color gradient from light to dark. The amount of tone and contrast may be selected to create the desired illusion of depth or thickness. The amount of contrast may be varied depending upon the color selected for each shingle. The number of horizontal striations and their width may also be varied to provide the desired color gradient.
摘要:
A shingle is provided having a headlap section and a buttlap section with at least one portion of the buttlap section having a relatively uniform color and/or value and an adjacent portion of the buttlap section having a value gradation from light to dark. A plurality of horizontal striations with transition stripes disposed between adjacent horizontal striations may be used to establish the desired value gradation. An illusion of depth or thickness is created on the portion of the buttlap section having the value gradation. The buttlap section defines in part the exposed weather surface of the associated shingle. The relatively uniform color and/or value portions may be formed on tabs or dragon teeth and the value gradation formed on a backer sheet disposed beneath the tabs. Openings between adjacent tabs expose the associated enhanced value gradation to view. The amount of contrast between adjacent striations may be substantively increased to create the desired illusion of depth or thickness while the transition stripes provide a subtle change in value from one striation to the next striation. The number of horizontal striations and their width may also be varied to provide the desired value gradation.
