Filed:

Aug 29, 1983

Appl. No.:

6/527548

Inventors:

Forest G. Fitz - West Columbia SC

Assignee:

AT&T Nassau Metals Corporation - Gaston SC

International Classification:

H02G 112
H01B 1500

US Classification:

834252

Abstract:

Apparatus for stripping cable of its outer sheathing includes first and second drive wheels, each having a non-rotating cutter blade extending beyond the wheel periphery. The amount of extension of the cutters is adjustable, and they are located on an imaginary line joining the centers of the wheels, hence cutting takes place in the region of maximum support for, and maximum pull on the cable.

International Classification:

B07B 404

US Classification:

209154

Abstract:

A method and apparatus is disclosed for separating finely sized materials of diverse weights comprising a housing 8 having an opening 20 through which materials may be introduced for separation, an air intake 26 through which air may be introduced, and an air outlet 34 through which an air stream may exit. Means 53 are provided for forcing air into the housing 8 through the air intake 26 and out of said housing through the air outlet 34. A series of steps 10, 12, 14 is mounted within the housing 8 over which the materials may cascade. Means are further provided for channeling air introduced into the housing 8 through the air intake 26 into at least one air stream which passes between adjacent steps of the series of steps whereby the air stream may pass through the cascading materials and entrain the lighter materials.

International Classification:

B03B 102

US Classification:

209 3

Abstract:

A process for reclaiming composite materials that includes viscous and non-viscous constituents is described. The process comprises the steps of submerging the materials in a bath of liquid having a specific gravity greater than the viscous constituent but less than the non-viscous constituent, blasting the submerged materials with a gas or vapor heated to a temperature in excess of the melting temperature of the viscous constituent whereupon the viscous constituent is liberated from the non-viscous constituent and rises to the surface of the bath, skimming the viscous constituent from the surface of the bath, and emerging the non-viscous constituent from the bath.
