Apparatus for forming adobe bricks and drilling wells

Patent Kinnamon, H. D.

An improved apparatus for the continuous and relatively labor-free fabrication of adobe bricks and the forcing of well casings into the earth. With regard to forming adobe bricks, a rotating table carries the bricks being processed from one station to the next and a novel means for applying unusually high forming pressures permits immediate forming and ejection of the bricks from the forms while at the same time producing adobe bricks of improved quality and hardness characteristics.
Method of forming a ceramic superconducting composite wire using a molten pool

Patent Geballe, T.H.; Feigelson, R.S.; Gazit, D.

This paper describes a method for making a flexible superconductive composite wire. It comprises: drawing a wire of noble metal through a molten material, formed by melting a solid formed by pressing powdered Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3}, CaCO{sub 3} SrCO{sub 3} and CuO in a ratio of components necessary for forming a Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O superconductor, into the solid and sintering at a temperature in the range of 750{degrees} - 800{degrees}C. for 10-20 hours, whereby the wire is coated by the molten material; and cooling the coated wire to solidify the molten material to form the superconductive flexible composite wire without need ofmore » further annealing.« less
Method for forming ceramic materials, including superconductors

Patent Baney, R.H.; Bergstrom, D.F.; Justice, B.H.

This patent describes a method for forming high temperature superconductors of the general formula Ln{sub 1}Ba{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub (7 {minus} {ital d})}, Ln (7 {minus} d), where Ln is selected from the group consisting of yttrium (Y), lanthanum (La), neodymium (Nd), samarium (Sm), europium (Eu), gadolinium (Gd), terbium (Tb), dysprosium (Dy), holmium (Ho), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm), ytterbium (Yb), and lutetium (Lu), and d is less than .5. The method comprises forming a solution by dissolving compatible, pyrolyzable compounds of Ln, Ba and Cu in at least one organic solvent in a molar ratio of approximately 1:2:3, at least onemore »« less
