Abstract: A method of joining the ends of two thermal insulated pipes or conduits where each conduit has an inner pipe that extends axially beyond a middle tubular layer of thermal insulation material and an outer tubular layer of protective jacket. Before the ends of the inner pipe are welded together, an end cap blank having a central aperture is fit onto each inner pipe until it covers the exposed end of the middle and outer layers. Each end cap blank initially has the area of its central aperture pressed and deformed axially to form a tapered collar. Subsequently the inner pipe of a conduit presses and further deforms the tapered collar to define a substantially axially extending collar that is sealingly fit about the inner pipe protruding therethrough to prevent escape of toxic gases from the insulation layer during the welding process, as well as to protect the insulation layer from moisture in the environment.

Abstract: A gain compensator compensates for the gain variation of a varactor-tuned voltage tuned oscillator (VCO) in a phase lock loop (PLL). The VCO (222) includes a parallel LC circuit (228) having multiple fixed capacitors that can be switched-in or switched-out of the LC circuit according to a capacitor control signal to perform band-select tuning of the VCO. The gain compensator compensates for the variable VCO gain by generating a charge pump reference current that is based on the same capacitor control signal that controls the fixed capacitors in the LC circuit. The gain compensator generates the charge pump reference current by replicating a reference scale current using unit current sources. The number of times the reference scale current is replicated is based on the fixed capacitance that is switched-in to the LC circuit and therefore the frequency band of the PLL. The reference scale current is generated based on a PLL control that specifics certain PLL characteristics such as reference frequency, loop bandwidth, and loop damping. Therefore, the reference pump current can be efficiently optimized for changing PLL operating conditions, in addition to compensating for variable VCO gain.

Abstract: A two-liquid hard surface cleaner contains a thin alkaline liquid and a thin acidic liquid. Stabilised in the alkaline liquid is a compound which generates chlorine dioxide only under acidic conditions. An example is sodium chlorite. The liquids are mixed to form a thick cleaning composition. Ethoxylated alkyl sulphate surfactants have been found to be highly effective in achieving this effect of thickening on mixing. The thickened cleaning composition is acidic and causes the evolution of chlorine dioxide, which has a sterilising and bleaching effect. The resulting acidic liquid is also able to degrade limescale.

Abstract: The casing of a hearing aid can be acoustically dampened and its receiver is less likely to amplify noise stemming from vibrations of the casing when the casing is lined with a viscoelastic material. The viscoelastic lining can be applied by laying a viscoelastic layer across the rim of the casing and drawing a vacuum at the sound-communicating orifice of the casing until the viscoelastic is drawn tightly against the interior of the casing. A preferred viscoelastic layer has at one surface a substance such as fibers or beads that will form temporary bridges to permit an air to be evacuated between the viscoelastic layer and a casing to which it is applied. When the deposited viscoelastic is tacky at room temperature, the components of the hearing aid can be positioned simply by pressing them into the viscoelastic material, thus making the assembly easier than prior methods of assembling tiny hearing aids.

Abstract: A test tube handling assembly has an elongate member (12) with an end for engaging a test tube (14) and an end opposite thereto driven about an axis of the member for orbital movement with its axis. The member is a slender rod with a spherical bearing about a center part thereon between the ends thereof and along its axis. An arm (23) extends from a support to carry the spherical bearing and permit limited motion of the rod relative to the support. A gripping means (28) on the end for engaging the test tube holds the test tube and its contents during movement of the rod relative to the axis. A drive (34) located on the support near the end opposite causes the test tube to swing about the center part. Contacting means with a seal for closing the open end of the test tube is part of an inflatable bladder (32) which holds the open end of the test tube by fitting in the open end of the test tube. The drive has a motor (35) for providing orbital motion. The motor axis (36) and the member axis (16) are in spaced parallel relation relative to each other with a linkage means therebetween to cause the axis of the member to move about the axis of the motor imparting an orbital motion to the end opposite of the member thereby orbiting the end for engaging the test tube. A three axis positioning means (19) carries the support by connection with a releasable latching means. A method has steps of holding a test tube by the gripping means, moving the test tube repetitively with the drive and generating orbital movement of the test tube and sample therein for producing a vortex in the test tube sample.
