20090208385MOUNTING MATS AND POLLUTION CONTROL DEVICES USING SAME - The fluid delivery system includes a fluid path set with a first section adapted for connection to a syringe and to a source of fluid to be loaded into the syringe, and a second section that is removably connected to the first section. A connector removably connects the first and second sections. The connector includes a first connector member having a first luer member and a first annular member disposed about the first luer member. The connector further includes a second connector member having a second luer member and a second annular member disposed about the second luer member. A check valve arrangement is disposed in of one of the first and second connector members for limiting fluid flow to one direction through the connector. The first and second annular members are adapted to operably engage to securely and releasably connect the first and second connector members.08-20-2009
20090208732MOUNTING MAT FOR A POLLUTION CONTROL DEVICE - The present invention provides a mounting mat (08-20-2009
20100150791FIBER MAT CONTAINING AN ORGANOSILICON COMPOUND AND POLLUTION CONTROL DEVICE USING IT - The present invention relates to a fiber mat, preferably a non-intumescent, polycrystalline, needle-punched or stitch-bonded aluminia-silica fiber mat, which contains an organosilicon compound. The fiber mat comprises a fiber blanket which is essentially free of organic binder and which is impregnated with an organosilicon compound selected from the group consisting of siloxane compounds, alkoxy group-containing silanes, hydrolysates and condensates of these compounds, and combinations thereof. In a further embodiment the fiber mat comprises a high friction coating on at least the side of the mat which is to be brought in contact with a pollution control element of a pollution control device. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a pollution control device containing such a fiber mat.06-17-2010
20100207298METHOD OF MAKING MOUNTING MATS FOR MOUNTING A POLLUTION CONTROL PANEL - The present invention relates to a method of making mounting mats for use in pollution control device. The method comprises the steps of: (i) supplying inorganic fibers through an inlet of a forming box having an open bottom positioned over a forming wire to form a mat of fibers on the forming wire, the forming box having a plurality of fiber separating rollers provided in at least one row in the housing between the inlet and housing bottom for breaking apart clumps of fibers and an endless belt screen; (ii) capturing clumps of fibers on a lower run of the endless belt beneath fiber separating rollers and above the forming wire; (iii) conveying captured clumps of fibers on the endless belt above fiber separating rollers to enable captured clumps to release from the belt and to contact and be broken apart by the rollers; (iv) transporting the mat of fibers out of the forming box by the forming wire; and (v) compressing the mat of fibers and restraining the mat of fibers in its compressed state thereby obtaining a mounting mat having a desired thickness suitable for mounting a pollution control element in the housing of a catalytic converter.08-19-2010
20100209306MAT FOR MOUNTING A POLLUTION CONTROL ELEMENT FOR THE TREATMENT OF EXHAUST GAS - The present invention relates to a mat for mounting one or more pollution control elements in a pollution control device for the treatment of exhaust gases, said mat comprising heat-treated glass fibers containing Al08-19-2010
20100209308MOUNTING MAT INCLUDING INORGANIC NANOPARTICLES AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME - The present invention relates to a mounting mat for mounting a pollution control device in a catalytic converter, the mounting mat comprising a non-woven mat of inorganic fibers having distributed therein inorganic particles having an average diameter of 1 nm to 100 nm and wherein the mounting mat is free of organic binder or contains organic binder in an amount of not more than 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the mounting mat. The invention further relates to a pollution control device including the mounting mat and to a method of making the mounting mat.08-19-2010

20100133815Method and Apparatus for Operating a Wind Turbine During a Loss of Communication - A method for operating a wind turbine during a loss of communication is described that includes coupling a pitch controller to at least one wind turbine blade and to a wind turbine controller, establishing communication between the pitch controller and the wind turbine controller, and detecting a loss of communication between the pitch controller and the wind turbine controller. After a loss of communication is detected, the method further includes waiting for a first predetermined amount of time to elapse, independently pitching the at least one wind turbine blade to a predetermined position, waiting for a second predetermined amount of time to elapse, and maintaining the at least one wind turbine blade in the predetermined position until a rotation of the at least one wind turbine blade stops.06-03-2010
20110133472Wind Turbine, Nacelle, And Method Of Assembling Wind Turbine - A nacelle for a wind turbine includes a shell having an exterior surface and an interior surface that defines an inner cavity. The nacelle includes an insulative covering that is positioned adjacent to the exterior surface. The insulative covering is configured to reduce a fluctuation of a temperature within the inner cavity.06-09-2011
