Patent EP-0859239-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ANTONELLO GIANPAOLO
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 1997-11-13
Abstract: A method is described for correcting misalignment between test needles and test
points during multiple electrical tests on printed circuit boards, in which setting up of
the machine to carry out the test on a circuit board or group of circuit boards, and
hence correction of any misalignment, takes place without removing the circuit
boards from the test area. 
     The invention also relates to a device for correction of misalignment, that uses one or
more mobile plates (80, 110), depending upon whether the test is performed on only
one side or on both sides of the printed circuit board, both mobile plates being
disposed on the same interface (1) of the test machine and operating respectively on
centering pins (50) of the printed circuit board (10) and on centering pins (50') carried
by a mobile structure of the other interface (1') of the test machine, said mobile plates
(80, 110) being moved by at least three respective linear actuators (90,130) acting on
respective outer edges of said plates, to give them a rotational translational motion.

Abstract: A liquid ejection method includes preparing a
head comprising an ejection outlet (18) for ejecting the
liquid, a bubble generation region for generating the
bubble in the liquid, a movable member (31) disposed faced
to the bubble generation region (11) and displaceable
between a first position and a second position further
from the bubble generation region (11) than the first
position; displacing the movable member (31) from the first
position to the second position by pressure produced
by the generation of the bubble in the bubble
generating portion (11) to permit expansion of the bubble
more in a downstream side closer to the ejection
outlet (18) than in an upstream side; supplying, to a heat
generating element (2) for applying thermal energy to the
bubble generating region (11), a driving pulse divided into
a first pulse and an adjacent second pulse with
interval time therebetween; pre-heating the liquid by
the first pulse to an extent not enough to eject the
liquid through the ejection outlet; generating a
bubble by heating the liquid by the second pulse to
eject the liquid through the ejection outlet (18);
controlling a degree of pre-heating of the liquid by
changing at least one of a pulse width of the first
pulse or the interval time.

Abstract: A system clock of a radio telephone is adjusted in relation to an associated
transmitter/receiver station system clock by detecting a predetermined part
(SYNC word) which occurs periodically in a digital signal. A clock signal having
pulses synchronous with the system clock signal of the radio telephone is
formed. The clock pulses in the clock signal are counted between the detection
of two predetermined parts in the digital signal, and the system clock is
corrected in response to the number of pulses between the detection of said two
predetermined parts in the digital signal.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for determining one or more leachate
concentrations of one or more components of a glass composition in an aqueous solution of
the glass composition by identifying the components of the glass composition, including
associated oxides, determining a preliminary glass dissolution estimator, ΔG p , based upon
the free energies of hydration for the component reactant species, determining an
accelerated glass dissolution function, ΔG a , based upon the free energy associated with
weak acid dissociation, ΔG a   WA , and accelerated matrix dissolution at high pH, ΔG a   SB 
associated with solution strong base formation, and determining a final hydration free
energy, ΔG f . This final hydration free energy is then used to determine leachate
concentrations for elements of interest using a regression analysis and the formula  log 10 (N
C i  (g/L)) = a i  + b i  ΔG f   . The present invention also includes a method to determine whether
a particular glass to be produced will be homogeneous or phase separated. The present
invention is also directed to methods of monitoring and controlling processes for making
glass using these determinations to modify the feedstock materials until a desired glass
durability and homogeneity is obtained.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the preparation of water based coating
compositions having extended storage stability. The composition includes
separately stored polymeric binder component and a crosslinking component. 
     These components are mixed prior to application over surfaces, such as,
road surfaces. The polymeric binder component includes an anionically
stabilized binder polymer having at least one reactive functional pendent
moiety, or a blend of the binder polymer with a polyfunctional amine. The pot
mix of the coating composition has extended storage stability. The
waterborne road marking paints of the present invention exhibit improved
wear resistance on road surfaces in terms of paint remaining on the road
longer than waterborne road marking paints based on the storage stable
component alone. The present invention provides road marking paints that
can be applied by conventional road striping equipment and do not require
special two component spray equipment.

Abstract: Uninterrupted network operation is maintained when stations are moved, for
example when a station is initially connected to a bridge port via a repeater, and
the station is later moved to another repeater, such that the bridge filtering
database is typically out of date until the station transmits packets. To remedy
this, an intelligent agent causes a packet to be sent on behalf of the station via
the new network segment, and causes the bridge to learn the new port for the
station, and to update its filtering database. The intelligent agent sends this
packet immediately after the station has been moved from one network segment
to another, thereby minimizing the possibility that traffic directed to the station is
lost.
