CONT

The interior surface of the housing, which is preferably cylindrical, and the outer peripheral surface of the seal assembly define a substantially annular-shaped first space there between for the flow of process fluids. Process fluids can also flow in a substantially cylindrical-shaped second space defined by the axial core of the seal assembly.

CONT

Les buselures d'étanchéité sont des composants très importants car elles constituent une barrière du circuit primaire et, à ce titre, sont conçues pour résister à la pression primaire. Elles prolongent, par l'intermédiaire des vannes manuelles, les tubes de guidage et sont traversées par les tubes doigt de gant. Chaque buselure est constituée de deux ensembles de joints en série entre lesquels est installé un dispositif de détection de fuites. Ces joints sont serrés axialement par des écrous. Ils viennent porter sur la surface interne du corps de la buselure d'une part et sur la surface externe du doigt de gant d'autre part, obstruant ainsi l'espace annulaire compris entre le doigt de gant et le tube de guidage.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Non-Artesian Water Wells
  • Equipment and Tools (Water Supply)
CONT

Surge-blocks, swabs, or plungers are disc shaped devices made to fit tightly within the well. Their edges are usually fitted with rubber or leather rings to make a tight seal against the well casing. Pipe sections are then attached to the surge-block to lower it into the well, above the well screen, and about 15 feet below the water level. The assembly is then repeatedly lifted up and down. The up and down action of the surge-block creates suction and compression strokes that force water in and out of the well through the screened interval, gravel pack, and aquifer. It works like a plunger in the way that it removes small obstructions and sediments from the well. The surge-block is slowly lowered each time resistance begins to decrease.

CONT

A rapid up and down motion of a surge block in the water of the well will give reversals of flow through the screen ...

Record 5 2008-03-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aircraft Systems
OBS

Application of the brake pedal, which is linked to the master cylinder piston rod, causes the piston rod to push the piston forward inside the master cylinder casting. A slight forward movement blocks the compensating port, and the buildup of pressure begins. This pressure is transmitted to the brake assembly. When the brake pedal is released and returns to the "off" position, the piston return spring pushes the front piston seal and the piston back to full "off" position against the piston return stop. This again clears the compensating port. Fluid that was moved into the brake assembly and brake connecting line is then pushed back to the master cylinder by the brake piston which is returned to the "off" position by the pressure of the brake piston return springs. Any pressure or excess volume of fluid is relieved through the compensating port and passes back to the fluid reservoir. This prevents the master cylinder from locking or causing the brakes to drag.

CONT

Poor wiper operation. The windshield wipers... may not park properly or shut off when the driver turns them off.... If this is the case, replace the windshield wiper motor. To do this, first remove the wiper arms by removing the two flange nuts. Next, pry the cowl clips out(18 of them), then remove the cowl cover and hood seal. Now unplug the electrical connector from the windshield wiper linkage assembly and remove the assembly's three bolts. This allows you to separate the motor from the wiper linkage.

Record 7 2003-04-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Motors (Machinery)
CONT

The oil in the motor is pressurized by a spring loaded diaphragm assembly which keeps the oil around the bearings, rotor and rotary seal. Since the balance system puts the same pressure inside the motor as the outside well pressure, the rotary seal, "O" rings and stator winding work under a very low differential pressure.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Moteurs mécaniques
CONT

L'huile du moteur est maintenue sous pression par un diaphragme à ressort qui assure la lubrification constante des roulements, du rotor et du grain mobile de la garniture mécanique. Comme la pression à l'intérieur du moteur est égale, grâce au système de compensation, à celle exercée par l'eau du puits, le grain mobile, les joints toriques et les enroulements du stator sont soumis à une différence de pression négligeable.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
CONT

The preform mold consists of four major components: preform cavity, injection nozzle, neckring insert, and core rod assembly.

CONT

The core rod assembly... has four functions or features : It forms the interior of the preform. It supports the parison or the bottle during transfer. It is the valve where air enters to expand the parison. The valve is located either in the shoulder area or in the tip, the location being governed by the bottle or core rod length-to-diameter ratio. Wide mouth bottles(that is, core rods with low length-to-diameter ratios) will usually have a shoulder valve. The core rod has a "blow by" groove. This annular groove, located near the seating shank... is needed to seal the parison and prevent excessive air loss during bottle blowing and to eliminate elastic retraction of the parison during the transfer between cavities.

CONT

Even though the parison is exposed to the air, melt strength is not as crucial because of the support provided by the parison core rod.

OBS

Semiconductor chips require encapsulation for protection against the environment in which they must operate. The encapsulation is either in an hermetic or non-hermetic package, depending on environmental or reliability considerations. Sealing boats and accessories are instrumental in the assembly of most hermetic packages. Their primary functions are to align and/or hold in place various packaging components for final seal.
