摘要:
The sensor 1 has its point of operation towards the Townsend discharge zone, and the collection of ions causes an increase in the current passing through it. The electrodes of the sensor are formed by wires bent in the shape of an alpha.

The invention relates to a corona discharge lightning rod comprising a tip which is isolated from the ground and having a base which is connected via discharge means to the ground, said lightning rod being suitable for ionizing the ambient atmosphere at the end of its tip. An electric circuit is provided for periodically reducing the potential of the tip to a value which is too low to maintain corona discharge, thereby producing periodic and intermittent corona discharge pulses. Preferably, the tip is electrically connected to a potential generator such that the potential (V.sub.0) applied to the tip is a variable potential in the form of recurrent wave trains, and such that the peak value of the first half cycle of the train having a polarity opposite to the polarity of the ambient atmosphere is greater than the threshold at which the corona effect takes place. This need only occur in the presence of the natural amplification (V.sub.1) as produced by the ambient electric field which exists during a thunderstorm.

Disclosed is an apparatus which attaches to an automatic tissue processor to confine and treat the toxic fumes emanating from solvent containers used in a tissue processor. The apparatus consists of a framework clamped on the tissue processor upon which an adsorbent filter and exhauster/blower assembly are mounted and a transparent flexible cover are placed. The blower sucks the toxic fumes and intake air through the adsorbent filter where the fumes are removed from the air. The clear flexible cover has zippered panels with attached fasteners to observe tissue processor operation and provide the technologist access to the tissue processor for operation and maintenance.
摘要:
Apparatus for precisely regulating the paraffin temperature in an electrically heated tissue processor comprises a sensor which is detachably fastened to the tissue processor by a clamp so as to be partially immersed in the paraffin. A controller, coupled to the sensor, and coupled in series with the tissue processor heating element by a plug tap across a source of alternating current voltage, is responsive to the conduction state of the sensor and controls the delivery of power to the tissue processor heating element in accordance with the paraffin temperature as sensed by the sensor.
摘要:
Apparatus for treating a shoreline against contamination from an oil spill on adjacent waters comprising a first vehicle for laying down a web of oil absorbing material on said shoreline and taking up said web after it has absorbed oil, a second vehicle for transporting said first vehicle and said webs to the area of said shoreline, and a third vehicle for storing oil extracted from said web by extraction mechanism on said first vehicle. An all-terrain vehicle for laying a web of oil absorbing material on a shoreline including a vehicle body supported by a plurality of wheels, means on said body for supporting a coiled web of said oil absorbing material and for guiding said web onto said shoreline, and means for coiling said web back onto the vehicle and extracting oil therefrom. A method of treating a shoreline against contamination from an oil spill comprising the steps of transporting a web laying vehicle and a plurality of oil absorbing webs to said shoreline, causing said web laying vehicle to lay said oil absorbing webs onto said shoreline, taking up said oil absorbing webs and extracting oil from them, and conveying said extracted oil away from said shoreline. A web for use in absorbing oil deposited on a shoreline including spaced layers of plastic netting confining shredded polyolefin fibers therebetween.
摘要:
An instant lottery game in which remote vending machines are centrally controlled by a central computer is disclosed. Each vending machine generates a pre-selected indicia which may be player-controlled. Upon the receipt of a wager of a proper amount, the central computer generates a random indicia. The number of matches between the random and pre-selected indicia are determined and the prize amount based upon the number of matches and the wager amount is computed. The vending machine immediately pays out the prize amount if it is less than a pre-determined value and issues a validation ticket if the prize amount is more than said pre-determined value.
摘要:
The metal coating on a dielectric sheet or strip, for instance for use in capacitors, is locally removed by a Corona discharge between the sheet and a point electrode.A current return electrode contacts the sheet and is located in the return path to a HV generator connected to the point electrode.
摘要:
Tickets for an instant lottery are imprinted with lottery numbers and serial numbers that are uniquely related and the lottery numbers are covered from view until after purchase, to provide control and distribution of winners and a high degree of security from fraud. By means of computerized fabrication a low cost and high security ticket is achieved. Playing cards for other games are also inexpensively fabricated.
