IPC: C08L9/00

Abstract: This invention is based upon the discovery that rubbery polymers having
a high vinyl content and a low degree of branching can be synthesized with an
initiator system that is comprised of (a) a lithium initiator selected from the group
consisting of allylic lithium compounds and benzylic lithium compounds, (b) a
Group I metal alkoxide, and (c) a polar modifier; wherein the molar ratio of the
Group I metal alkoxide to the polar modifier is within the range of 0.1:1 to 10:1;
and wherein the molar ratio of the Group I metal alkoxide to the lithium initiator
is within the range of 0.01:1 to 20:1. These high vinyl polymers offer reduced
levels of hysteresis and better functionalization efficiency. By virtue of their
lower level of hysteresis these polymers can be utilized in manufacturing tire
tread compounds that exhibit lower levels of rolling resistance and can
accordingly be used to improve the fuel economy of motor vehicles without
compromising other desirable characteristics, such as traction and tread-wear.

Abstract: A foot splint for the prevention and rehabilitation of plantar fasciitis by maintaining a
wearer's foot and, hence, his plantar fascia, in a preselected amount of dorsiflexion. The foot
splint (10) includes a footplate (14) for supporting the wearer's foot, a lateral strut (12) extending along the
lower leg of the wearer and having a strap (20) for releaseably attaching the strut to the wearer's leg,
and a wrap (18) for wrapping around the foot of the wearer. A soft insole (16) may be provided to cushion
the wearer's foot from the footplate. The wrap, insole and footplate provide a comfortable
"slipper-like" feel for the wearer. Moreover, the foot splint is particularly suited for use during
sleep since it is light-weight and open configuration allows for the wearer to move unimpeded
between sleep positions, resulting in a more restful sleep. Moreover, the lateral placement of the
strut keeps the rigid portions of the foot splint from inadvertently abrading, striking, or otherwise
interfering with the wearer's other leg.

Abstract: Les données client concernant l'emplacement et le caractère de repère, notamment les plages de contacts sur lesquelles sont soudées les pièces électroniques sur une carte de circuit imprimé, sont conservées sous forme numérique, par exemple, sous forme de données Gerber. A partir de ces données (62, 64), on crée une bibliothèque d'empreintes caractérisant les détails cartographiques. On applique ensuite à cette bibliothèque d'empreintes un filtre d'empreintes et un paramètre de modification de façon à sélectionner des empreintes à modifier et à effectuer sur les empreintes sélectionnées une modification voulue. Dans un mode de réalisation de carte à circuit imprimé, on se réfère aux empreintes pour découper les ouvertures (54, 56) dans un stencil conçu pour l'impression de soudure sur la carte à circuit imprimé. Les données représentant l'ensemble des ouvertures à découper dans le stencil se prêtent aux déplacements ou aux changements d'échelles pour tenir compte des écarts liés à la fabrication de la carte à circuit imprimé et à celle du stencil. La mise en oeuvre de ce procédé ne nécessite aucun enregistrement des instructions sous forme de code logiciel sur un support informatique.
