| 20120092013 | NMR REACTION MONITORING FLOW CELL - A monitoring cell, used to perform a measurement in an NMR spectrometer of a reaction fluid produced by a reaction vessel, has a body having inlet and outlet transport coaxial capillaries for transporting the reaction fluid between the body and the reaction vessel. Cooling lines are also positioned coaxially with the transport capillaries to transport cooling liquid between the body and the reaction vessel. The cell further has a hollow sample probe for insertion into the NMR spectrometer and a coupler section that removably connects the sample probe to the body so that the inlet transport capillary extends through the body into the interior of the sample probe and the outlet transport capillary is sealed to the sample probe to allow reaction fluid that enters the sample probe via the inlet transport capillary to exit the sample probe via the outlet transport capillary. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20110101981 | NMR MAS ROTOR ASSEMBLY WITH POROUS CERAMIC BEARINGS - Each NMR rotor bearing in an NMR magic angle spinning assembly is constructed of a porous ceramic material and has no inlet channels or nozzles. Instead, pressurized gas is forced through pores in the bearing ceramic material from an annular groove at the bearing periphery to the central aperture. Since the pores are small and very numerous, the gas pressure is effectively balanced around the periphery of the central aperture. In addition, if contaminants block one or more pores during operation, the pores are so numerous that the balanced pressure can still be maintained in the central aperture, thereby preventing an imbalance that could destroy the rotor. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110079288 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PREVENTING ENERGY LEAKAGE FROM ELECTRICAL TRANSMISSION LINES - Apparatus for preventing energy leakage from a transmission line treats the line as a “partially closed” vessel. A gas stream with a pressure slightly different from ambient pressure is provided to the interior of the transmission line and a conduit that allows gas to pass between the transmission line and the ambient environment is provided. The gas flow rate at the conduit is then detected and monitored. If the flow rate falls outside a predetermined threshold, an electrical energy leakage is indicated. In another embodiment, the pressure of the input gas to the transmission line is continuously checked by a pressure switch, which will detect a change in pressure if the transmission integrity is compromised and disable the energy source. | 04-07-2011 |
