Abstract: A laser energy absorbing and heat generating material(4.1) is located at an interface layer(2.1) between two plastic parts(1.1,1.2), one(1.1) of which transmits laser light. The two parts are pressed together(P) and a laser beam(11.1) directed at the laser-transparent part so that the plastic parts are partially melted at the interface layer and on cooling form a welded seam between both parts. <??>Preferred Features: For welding together two or more plastic parts several lasers are employed which produce beams with different wavelengths covering a specific range. Energy converters for absorbing the different wavelengths are placed at each interface between the plastic parts and the latter are pressed together. All but the final plastic part can transmit laser light of at least one wavelength and the final part has a specific transparency to laser light. The interfaces can be irradiated simultaneously or successively with the lasers to effect partial melting at each interface and formation of a weld line. An energy converter which absorbs different wavelengths is placed at at least one interface and the plastic parts at this interface are irradiated by two or more laser beams with the different wavelengths to effect melting. Interface layer thickness and/or absorption coefficient of the energy converter and/or thickness and/or duration of the laser energy are chosen so that only simultaneous irradiation by two beams effects heating and melting of the plastic parts. Energy converters are positioned at the rear face of an irradiated plastic part. Penetration depth of a welded seam depends on pressure applied to the plastic parts.

Abstract: The invention refers to an optical fiber transmission system, comprising a
transmitter terminal (10) launching an optical signal into a fiber line, whuch is guiding
the signal to a receiver terminal on the far end of the fiber line. The signal composed of
a multitude of bit-patterns at different wavelength channels within a given total
bandwidth of wavelengths. In order to increase the optical power budget of the system,
the fiber line consists, in its first section, of at least two branches (12a, 12b). The
transmitter (10) launches a separate part of the optical signal into each one of the
branches (12a, 12b). Each part of the signal is composed of a sub-multitude of the bit-patterns
at neighbouring wavelength channels within non-overlapping bandwidth
domains. The parts of the signal are multiplexed together into one unique fiber (14) by
means of a multiplexer station (13) not closer to said transmitter terminal (10), than the
sum of the total optical powers guided by each of the branches (12a, 12b) plus the
losses due to the multiplexing has decreased below the total optical power, that is
associated with a maximum optical power budget in said unique fiber (14) guiding the
full bandwidth of wavelengths.

Title: Method for applying compressive prestress to an elastic articulation
Inventor: GAUTHERON MICHEL
IPC: F16F15/08
Filed: 2001-01-22
Abstract: The invention concerns elastic articulations comprising rigid intermediate rings (4, 5) and prestressing the elastomeric parts (6, 7, 8) of said articulations. In order to generate uniform prestressing, the method consists in controlling the axial deformation of the elastomeric part (8) by pressure (B1) exerted by stop elements (10, 15), during a process for shrinking (R) the outer frame (2). Owing to the incompressibility of the elastomeric material, the intermediate ring (4) is shrunk and compresses the adjacent elastomeric part (7).

Title: Method for the uphill casting of cast pieces in sand dies with controlled solidification
Inventor: VOIGT HEIKO
IPC: B22D15/02
Filed: 2001-03-09
Abstract: A method is described for uphill casting in sand molds with high-resin casting cores or especially casting cores containing binders, and with directed solidification of metallic castings that have at least one cavity. In particular, these are prototypes of engine blocks or cylinder heads, for example for internal combustion engines that are provided with a cavity through which coolant water flows. To provide for low-turbulence flow of the liquid molten metal during the deaeration of the casting mold, the casting mold is provided with at least one feeder head that is connected through a casting system to an infeed funnel, and the molten metal it contains is displaced by gravity through the casting system into the casting mold, with the cavity in the molten metal being subjected after the filling to reduced pressure that is greater than the pressure of the core gases formed in the core. This eliminates the hindrance to filling the mold from air pockets in the mold. At the same time, dense and pore-free, mechanically strong cast parts are produced by the method.

Abstract: A melt level or the gap between a melt surface and a heat shield is measured accurately irrespective of how the melt surface is. A laser beam (2) from a range-finding unit (8) is reflected by a scanning mirror (24) and projected on a melt surface (3) through an entrance window (18) and a quartz prism (20) in a chamber (17) of a puller. After specular reflection, the beam forms a measurement spot (31) in the bottom of a heat shield (16) and scatters.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to determine with high certainty whether a collision with the front of a vehicle was caused by a pedestrian. Two decisive conditions are thus generated and only when both conditions are fulfilled is a pedestrian collision accepted. The first decisive condition is generated by a comparison of pressures or deformations measured by a sensor (3) on the front bumper (2) and a sensor in the region of the front engine bonnet edge (4) with reference data typical for a collision with a pedestrian. The second decisive condition is generated by comparison of the speed and/or acceleration changes caused by the collision with reference data typical for a collision with a pedestrian.
