Title: Method of protecting cable strands
Inventor: ZOELL JURGEN
IPC: H01R13/405
Filed: 2000-05-05
Abstract: Stranded cable conductors, especially their connecting joints with electrical components, are damaged during use in aggressive surroundings, for example in fuels. Protective measures, such as shrinkable tubes or protective coatings, do not ensure adequate protection however. With the novel process, stranded cable conductors and their connecting joints with electrical components are to be protected against the attack of aggressive media. With the process according to the invention, stranded cable conductors are encapsulated in a fuel-resistant plastic, the encapsulation not covering the entire length of the stranded cable conductor but the region which is exposed to aggressive media. The process does not require any pretreatment of the stranded cable conductors.

Title: Loose-leaf binder
Inventor: CHIZMAR JAMES S
IPC: B42F13/16
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: A binder for releasably retaining loose-leaves. The binder has a front cover that lies flatly beneath its back cover when the binder is open 360 degrees. The rings of the binder can rotate around an edge of the flatly-folded cover to enable loose-leaves to lie flat above and below the cover. The binder also has a skeleton with a minimal cross-section spine which may be partially or completely embedded in a cover and rotates in relation to parallel front and back covers when the binder is open 360 degrees. The front cover, middle cover and back cover are connected in a way so that they do not interfere with the rotation of the rings. Mechanisms to open and close the rings of the skeleton to allow addition or removal of loose-leafs, and ring shapes to optimize or stabilize the capacity of the binder during operation are also disclosed.

Title: Display and light-transmitting plate for a display
Inventor: FAIRHURST ALISON MARY
IPC: G03B21/62
Filed: 2000-05-15
Abstract: A semi-reflecting plate for use with a liquid crystal display, for example, comprises a first body (110) of light-transmitting material having a flat upper surface and a stepped lower surface carrying a semi-reflective coating (116) and a second body (120) of light-transmitting material, underneath the semi-reflective coating, the second body (120) of light-transmitting material being in intimate contact with the coated stepped surface of the first body (110) and thus being correspondingly stepped, the second body (120) having a flat lower surface parallel with the flat upper surface of the first body. In a preferred arrangement, the refractive index of the second body is equal to, or close to that of the first body, so that light passing straight through the plate suffers little or no refractive deviation, whilst light reflected from the semi-reflective coating undergoes a predetermined angular deviation. In variants, the bodies (110, 120) may have different refractive indices and/or the semi-reflective coating may be omitted.

Title: Multiple dog leash
Inventor: SPORN JOSEPH S
IPC: A01K27/00
Filed: 2000-05-04
Abstract: A multiple dog leash which makes it possible for a single individual to concurrently control at least two dogs that differ in size and therefore require leashes of different length. The multiple leash includes an elongated strap that passes through a coupling ring and is folded thereover to define two leash sections whose relative lengths depends on the site of the fold; a leash handle being linked to the coupling ring. Each leash section terminates in a connector that can be coupled to the collar or harness of a dog. Slidable along the two leash sections is a sleeve that acts to maintain these sections in parallel relation. Also slidable on the two sections between the sleeve and the connectors is a lockable clamp which after the strap is adjusted to create two leash sections having relative lengths appropriate to the dogs to which these sections are coupled, is then locked to maintain this relationship.

Title: Sealing anodised aluminium
Inventor: CARTER BRYAN G
IPC: C25D11/24

Title: Padding process for plesiochronous data transmission (ii)
Inventor: MENZI ULRICH
IPC: H04J3/07
Filed: 1996-05-21
Abstract: In connection with plesiochronous data transmission, data are input into an elastic memory on the basis of a first clock pulse and read out on the basis of a second clock pulse which runs asynchronously with the first. Stuff bits are inserted at the end of a data frame as needed. For this purpose, the phase difference between clock pulses within a data frame is first of all measured. This phase difference is then compared with a threshold and a certain number of stuff bits are correspondingly inserted. In accordance with the invention, a frequency difference existing between the clock pulses is measured and, depending upon in which of several specified segments it lies, a correspondingly predefined modulation curve is used as threshold. Preferably a numerically optimized curve with respect to jitter amplitudes is used for each segment.

Title: Method and apparatus for delivering precursors to a plurality of epitaxial reactor sites
Inventor: RAVETZ MEGAN
IPC: C23C16/448
Filed: 2000-07-03
Abstract: PURPOSE: To improve the evaporation efficiency of a raw material by mounting an element of a porous sintered metal having the pore size smaller than the size of the solid raw material to a port for introducing a carrier gas into a bubbler vessel. CONSTITUTION: The solid raw material 2 is housed in the bubbler vessel 1 and is heated by a mantle heater, etc. The carrier gas is introduced from the introducing port 9 into the vessel 1 to generate the saturation pressure of the raw material 2. This material is sent into a film forming chamber 10 of the CVD device from a leading out pipe 8. The element 11 of the porous sintered metal is mounted to this introducing port 9. The carrier gas is ejected to a wide range from the many fine pores of the element 11 to the circumferences thereof and is uniformly dispersed. The wider contact area of the raw material 2 with the carrier gas is taken and the sufficient saturated steam pressure is obtd. The back flow of the raw material 2 to the mass flow controller is obviated even if the pressure on the film forming chamber 10 side increases. The damaging of the controller 4 is thus prevented.

Title: Flexible container made of film material and filling method for filling such a container with a fluid substance
Inventor: BAAL PATRICK MICHAEL VAN
IPC: B65D47/06
Filed: 2000-06-29
Abstract: The application relates to a flexible container ( 3 ) made of film material for containing drinks, comprising a fin opening as well as film storage means which delimit a first compartment and a second compartment ( 17, 18, 19 ) of the container and which release a second compartment ( 18, 19 ) when a predetermined degree of filling of the first compartment ( 17 ) is reached. By means of the film storage means, which, for example, can be formed by folding the side strips ( 20, 21 ) double in the longitudinal direction and holding them in place with the aid of adhesive tape, adhesive or fusion welding of the film material, uniform filling of the first compartment can be obtained, the flexible container largely remaining out of contact with the walls of the surrounding outer container. When the first compartment ( 17 ) has been filled the film storage means are released by the increase in the fill pressure and the second compartment ( 18, 19 ) can be filled so that uniform contact of the flexible container with the wall of the outer, rigid container is obtained. Using the flexible container and using the filling method according to the present invention high fill rates can be achieved and stresses are prevented from becoming too high in certain sections of the flexible container.
