IPC: F16C33/37
Filed: 2002-11-29
Abstract: A linear motion guide unit is disclosed in which a separator is made to fit over or embrace any adjacent rolling element, thereby realizing quiet operation and wear-resistance, with even under high-speed, high-cycle sliding motion. The separator(4) has a round outside peripheral surface(30), and forward and aft end faces that are made concave(10) to fit over the associated rolling elements(3). An end cap(21) is made up of a spacer part(6) having a lug(5) to provide a radially inside curved surface(8) of a turnaround(33), and a major part(1) to provide a radially outside curved surface(37) of the turnaround(33) when mounted on a carriage(20) through the spacer part(6). Cut in the radially inside curved surface(8) on the lug(5) is a gutter(7) for relief, which extends circumferentially along the center of the radially inside curved surface (8) on the lug(5), thereby allowing the separator(4) to travel through the turnaround(33) without any interference with the radially inside curved surface(8) of the turnaround(33).

Abstract: The communications system uses transmission over two channels, operating with different aerials and different frequencies. The same information is sent simultaneously on both channels, reducing risk of failure of receipt of vital information. This may be used to activate an alarm system. <??>The telecommunication system links together a transmitter (TRM) and a receiver (REC) which are intended to transmit and receive data respectively, on at least two carrier frequencies (F1 and F2) associated with first and second transmission channel. Two pairs of aerials are provided for this communication (AT1,2; AR1,2). The same flow of data is simultaneously transmitted on the two carrier frequencies whose values are such that a difference between the first and second carrier frequencies is included within the frequency band defining one of the transmission channels. The system enables transmission of analogue or digital data flux without recourse to intermediate signals representing the flux to effect the transmission.

Abstract: A process for making foamed glasses and ceramics from sol-gels is disclosed. The method includes preparing a mixture of reactants capable of forming a sol-gel with addition of a catalyst to control the condensation stage followed by foaming using vigorous agitation in the presence of surfactants. The gelled bodies are aged, dried, and thermally stabilized to obtain a consolidated macroporous material. The resulting structure comprises a three-dimensional network of spherical open pores that are thoroughly interconnected. The process may involve sol-gel systems using a mixture of metal alkoxides, and may produce glasses in unary systems (SiO2), binary systems (70% mol SiO2-30% mol CaO), and ternary systems (60% mol SiO2, 36% mol CaO, 4% mol P2O5). The macro-porous material has pores in the 10-500 μm range and has potential for use as matrix in tissue engineering, in bone repair, and in organ regeneration.

Abstract: A terahertz light generation element 8 emits terahertz
light as excitation pulse light is emitted onto an area
between electrically conductive films 32 and 33 formed on a
substrate 31 while a bias voltage is applied between the
electrically conductive films 32 and 33. A terahertz light
detection unit 13 outputs an electrical signal corresponding
to the intensity level of the electric field of the terahertz
light entering the terahertz light detection unit. The
polarity of the electric field of the terahertz light is
modulated by inverting the polarity of the bias voltage
applied between the pair of electrically conductive films.
By using a reference signal synchronous with the polarity
inversion of the bias voltage applied between the pair of
electrically conductive films, the electrical signal
provided by the terahertz light detection unit 13 is amplified
at a lock-in amplifier 24.

Abstract: Beim Verwenden von Magnetspulen (11) in explosiongefährdeter Umgebung, z. B. zur Betätigung von hydraulischen oder pneumatischen Ventilen, sind erhöhte Sicherheitsanforderungen zu beachten. Damit bei einem Bruch einer zu der Magnetspule (11) führenden elektrischen Leitung keine Funken entstehen, die zündfähige Gase zur Explosion bringen können, sind mehrere gleiche Z-Dioden (12,13,14) parallel zueinander und zu der Magnetspule geschaltet. Zusätzlich ist die Schaltungsanordnung mit einer isolierenden Masse zu einem Block vergossen, aus dem zwei Anschlussleitungen (17a,18a) herausragen. Weitere Messpunkte für einen Nachweis der Funktionsfähigkeit der Z-Dioden stehen nicht zur Verfügung. Um die Funktionsfähigkeit aller parallel zueinander und zu der Magnetspule geschalteten Z-Dioden nachzuweisen, werden die elektrischen Werte der Z-Dioden und der Magnetspule vor dem Zusammenbau gemessen. Nach dem Zusammenbau wird die Gesamtkapazität der Schaltungsanordnung gemessen. Von der Gesamtkapazität wird die Kapazität der Magnetspule abgezogen und der verbleibende Wert durch die Anzahl der parallel geschalteten Z-Dioden geteilt. Das Ergebnis wird mit der Kapazität einer einzelnen Z-Diode verglichen, wobei die Grösse der Differenz zwischen diesen Werten als Kriterium für die Funktionsfähigkeit der Z-Dioden dient.
