Abstract:
An improved roll bending system is described for the work rolls and intermediate rolls in a six high mill. New bending blocks apply improved roll bending forces to the roll chocks, and additionally, are designed to move vertically and rotate, which provide important benefits to maintenance and enhance the rolling operation. Additionally, important related details to the mill operation and bending blocks provide operational improvements during roll changing.
Abstract:
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a pre-stressed rolling mill which has the advantages of a conventional mono-block mill housing and utilizes a standard Cluster mill gauge eccentric bearing gauge control system. It is highly desirable to have a rolling mill with a low cost mill housing design, a high mill stiffness, a simplified gauge control system, a capacity for multiple work roll ranges, and satisfactory side to side tilting. Such a mill is capable of operating satisfactorily as a commercial temper mill and a commercial cold mill.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a Cluster mill which utilizes a Cluster mill gauge control system, has a high mill stiffness, a large work roll gap for threading, a rapid work roll gap opening, accurate roll force computation, side to side tilting, and utilizes work rolls over a much wider diameter range.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the inclusion complexes of butylphthalide, which is D, L-mixed or levorotatory, with cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivatives, to a process for their preparation and the use thereof. In the invention, the butylphthalide is complexed with cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivatives, preferably with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in order to increase the water-solubility of butylphthalide, develop clinical solid or liquid formulations and improve the therapeutic effect of butylphthalide. The inclusion complex, in which the molar ratio of butylphthalide to cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivatives is in the range of 1:1-10, can be used to prepare infusion, injection, injectable powder, liquids for oral administration, syrup, tablets, granules, dispersible tablets and others.

Abstract:
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method and apparatus is disclosed for use in a digital system having a host coupled to at least two nonvolatile memory devices. The host stores digital information in the nonvolatile memory devices and reads the stored digital information from the nonvolatile memory devices. The memory devices are organized into blocks of sectors of information. The method is for erasing digital information stored in the blocks of the nonvolatile memory devices and comprises assigning a predetermined number of blocks, in sequential order, to each of the nonvolatile memory devices, each block having a predetermined number of sectors. The method further comprises forming ‘super’ blocks, each ‘super’ block comprising a plurality of blocks, identifying a particular ‘super’ block having at least two blocks, a first block being located in a first nonvolatile memory device and a second block being located in a second nonvolatile memory device for erasure of the particular ‘super’ block and erasing the first and second selected blocks of the particular ‘super’ block so that erasure of the second block is performed without waiting for completion of the erasure of the first block; and indicating the status of the first and second nonvolatile memory devices to be busy during erasure of the first and second selected blocks, wherein the speed of erase operations in the digital system is substantially increased thereby increasing the overall performance of the digital system.
Abstract:
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a controller device is disclosed for use in a digital system having a host and nonvolatile memory devices. The controller device is coupled to the host and at least two nonvolatile memory devices. The host stores digital information in the nonvolatile memory unit and reads the stored digital information from the nonvolatile memory unit under the direction of the controller, the memory unit being organized into blocks of sectors of information. The controller device erases the digital information stored in the blocks of the nonvolatile memory devices in-parallel form. The controller device includes a space manager circuit responsive to address information from the host and operative to read, write or erase information in the nonvolatile memory unit based upon the host address information. The space manager assigns a predetermined number of blocks, in sequential order, to each of the nonvolatile memory devices, forms `super` blocks, each `super` block having blocks arranged inparallel, identifies a particular `super` block having at least two blocks, a first block being located in a first nonvolatile memory device and a second block being located in a second nonvolatile memory device, for erasure of the particular `super` block. The first block within the first nonvolatile memory device is first selected for erasure thereof and an erase operation to be performed on the selected first block is initiated. Thereafter, a second block within the second nonvolatile memory device is selected for erasure thereof and an erase operation to be performed on the selected second block is initiated. Thereafter, the first and second block of the particular `super` block are erased so that erasure of the second block is performed without waiting for completion of the erasure of the first block. The status of the first and second nonvolatile memory devices is indicated as being busy during erasure of the first and second blocks, wherein the speed of erase operations in the digital system is substantially increased due to the blocks of the `super` block being arranged in-parallel and overlapping of the erase operations of the blocks within the `super` blocks thereby increasing the overall performance of the digital system.
