Title: Improvements in and relating to roofing or sheathing
Inventor: ROSS JAMES CAMERON
IPC: E04D12/00
Filed: 1999-02-09
Abstract: A sheet metal exterior sheathing element particularly suitable as a roofing tile. The tile has inter-engageable channels on its opposing longitudinal sides, one channel (6, 7) being on the underside and the channel (9) on the upperside of the tile. A mounting tab (10) extends from adjacent the upperside channel (9) substantially co-planar to the body of the tile. The channels enable two tiles (1a, 1b) to be joined in an overlapping side by side relationship with their corresponding channel sections engaged. Each tile (1a, 1b) can be fixed to a supporting structure by their mounting tabs (10). A third tile (1c) can then be joined longitudinally of the first two tiles (1a, 1b) by engaging its underside channel (6) over and about their joined upperside channel sections (9). It can also be fixed to the supporting structure and the steps repeated to sheath a desired area.

Title: High-symbol density printer cartridge
Inventor: MILLISER CHARLES E
IPC: B41J32/02
Filed: 1989-02-15
Abstract: A shuttle matrix printer cartridge has a housing for storing the ribbon (R), an exit arm (16), an entrance arm (18) spaced from the exit arm and a drive mechanism (22) for removing ribbon (R) from the storage chamber (14) through the exit arm (16) into position for printing between a printhead and a substrate and reentry into the cartridge through the entrance arm (18). The entrance arm (18) is flexible in the plane of the cartridge toward and away from the exit arm (16) to facilitate changes in ribbon drag produced during high dot density printing. The cartridge has three spacer legs (70, 88, 180) along its underside for supporting the cartridge on the printer platform (76) in use. Additionally, a post engages a recess in the exit arm to maintain the latter arm rigid during use, while such post, in conjunction with a drive shaft carried by the printer and received in a cartridge drive wheel, positions the cartridge in the printer against lateral movement. A shield (52) is disposed between the drive gears and nip rollers in the drive mechanism to prevent ensnarlment of the ribbon in the drive gears.

Title: Stamped precision lightguide interconnect centering element
Inventor: PATTERSON RICHARD ALAN
IPC: G02B6/36
Filed: 1989-03-17
Abstract: Elements for making butt splices in optical fibers are simplified when formed of a deformable material and formed to define three surfaces (18,23,30) for contacting the fibers to be spliced. The surfaces are formed between two legs (20,21) of an element such that when the legs are closed onto the fibers the surfaces center the fibers and afford a resilient spring compression reserve force on the aligned fibers to maintain them in contact and the fibers are depressed into the surfaces slightly to center the fiber cores. Should one fiber be larger than another, the surfaces will deform sufficiently to clamp onto both fiber ends and be deformed even by the smallest of the two fibers. Thus, the splice element 11 will center the cores of the optical fibers such that in aligned position 90% or better of the surfaces of the core portions be aligned.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI95/00525 Sec. 371 Date May 29, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 29, 1997 PCT Filed Sep. 26, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/09871 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 4, 1996The invention relates to a heat exchanger wherein the heating vapor is fed onto heat exchange surfaces of membrane material from a vapor distributor, the vapor distributor having parallel conduits for directing vapor over the entire width of the surfaces. According to the invention the vapor distributor is made up of two opposing wall elements which are fastened to each other by means of projections in one element and corresponding recesses in the other element. The upper end of the membrane constituting the heat exchange surface is locked between the projections and recesses that are fastened to each other. Thus, pleats are produced in the membrane as an expansion leeway for the vapor space delimited by the membrane. The heat exchange surfaces may be formed into bags, the ends of which are fastened between the interlinked wall elements in such a manner that the vapor conduits delimited by the elements will direct heating vapor to the inside of the bags and the liquid conduits will direct liquid to be evaporated onto the outer surfaces of the bags.

Date Apr. 25, 1996A roller for a wound ribbon such as a printer ink ribbon may be rotationally coupled by pushing the projections or teeth of a wheel on a drive spindle into a soft material defining part of the bore in the roller. A spring blade prevents the wheel from freely rotating and provides a snap-in feeling. The roller may be part of a cartridge having members for locking the rollers in a position in which the ribbon tension is optimized. The roller and spindle may be coupled in any relative angular position, and the rollers may thus be locked. Release is automatic when the cartridge is full engaged. The ribbon may therefore be more readily installed in an optimized matter.

Title: Radiation delivery catheter
Inventor: FARNAN ROBERT C
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 2001-02-01
Abstract: Apparatus includes an elongated flexible catheter having proximal and distal end portions, with fluidly connected coaxial lumens extending therebetween, and a diameter sufficiently small for insertion into a patient's intraluminal passageways. One or more treating elements are positionable within one of the lumens and movable between the proximal and distal portions by fluid flowing through the lumens. The distal portion includes a distal guide wire lumen having a proximal exit port distally located relative to the treatment elements positioned at the distal portion. To simultaneously achieve stiffness along the proximal portion and flexibility along the distal portion, the inner and/or outer coaxial members may be of more than one-piece construction. The inner and/or outer members may also be stepped or bumped in diameter to decrease the pressure and fluid transit times within the catheter. A balloon may be added to the distal portion for positioning the catheter or performing angioplasty.
Patent AU-3988685-A (AU)
Title: Fibre optic frequency shifter
Inventor: PAVLATH GEORGE A
IPC: G02F1/01
Filed: 1985-03-15
Abstract: This invention relates to fiber optic frequency shifters for producing optical signals of a desired frequency range for input to a device such as an optical rotation sensing system. The rotating birefringence is created in a length of fiber optic material, which has the effect of a rotating half-wave plate upon an input optical signal. The length of fiber optic material may have a jacket of either an electrostrictive or a magnetostrictive material formed thereon such that application of an appropriate field to the jacket compresses the enclosed fiber to induce birefringence therein by means of the photoelastic effect. A half-coupler having a block of electro-optically active birefringent material adjacent the interaction region combined with an electrode configuration and circuitry for producing a rotating electric field in the block also produces a rotating half-wave plate frequency shifter. The evanescent field of light propogating in the optical fiber interacts with the rotating birefringence and experiences a frequency shift. The invention also includes feedback circuitry for processing the optical output of fiber optic rotating half- wave plates to maintain the intensity of components in the output signal having the carrier frequency below a threshold value.
