Title: Centrifugal clutch
Inventor: CHEVALIER JOHN PHILLIP
IPC: F16D43/16
Filed: 2000-03-15
Granted: 2004-03-24
Abstract: A centrifugal clutch for coupling a drive shaft ( 11 ) to a driven member ( 13 ) at rotary speeds above a predetermined threshold, comprising: a centrifugal slider ( 15 ) with a massive enlargement ( 155 ) at one end and a first coupling formation ( 156 ) preferably at the other end; a frame ( 12 ) formed to carry the centrifugal slider on formations ( 121, 122, 123, 124 ) to constrain it to sliding motion between an extended radial position and a retracted radial position, and to fit on the drive shaft to be driven by it, with the shaft at right-angles to the axis of sliding motion of the frame: an output drive member mountable for free rotation on the drive shaft and formed for driving engagement with the driven member in use, and formed with a second coupling formation ( 131 ) which connects drivingly with the first only when the centrifugal slider is at its extended position; and means ( 16 ) preferably located wholly within a recess ( 151 ) in the centrifugal slider, for biasing the centrifugal slider toward its retracted position; whereby rotation of the centrifugal slider and frame causes the massive enlargement to pull the centrifugal slider radially from its retracted to its extended radial position to cause the first ( 155 ) and second coupling arrangements to interengage and thus to transmit rotary drive from the drive shaft to the driven member, but the biasing means causes disengagement when the rotation ceases, so as to decouple the drive shaft from the driven member.

Title: A surface-treating appliance
Inventor: GENN STUART LLOYD
IPC: A47L9/10
Filed: 2004-07-23
Granted: 2007-12-27
Abstract: A domestic appliance such as a cyclonic vacuum cleaner includes a component such as separating apparatus, carried by a chassis. A catch is provided and is operable to release the component from the chassis. The component and the chassis are able to move slightly with respect to each other. When the appliance is lifted, lugs on the separating apparatus move into slots on the chassis so as to inhibit release of the catch when the appliance is lifted. Thus, accidental release of the separating apparatus from the chassis is avoided.
Patent GB-2415826-B (GB)
Title: Data protection system
Inventor: MILES ANTHONY
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 2002-03-08
Granted: 2006-06-07
Abstract: A data payload PD is recorded on a compact disc in a format including a lead-in indicating a track start address ATOC and a subchannel P which changes state at a payload start address AP, subsequent to the track start address ATOC. Data ED recorded at the track start address ATOC includes unrecoverable data. Where the data payload PD is an audio track, an audio-only player begins to search sequentially from the track start address ATOC until the subchannel changes state, and reproduces the audio track from that point. A data player, on the other hand, begins to reproduce data from the track start address ATOC. When the unrecoverable data is read, the read operation is aborted, as it appears that the data has been corrupted. This operation cannot be easily circumvented, because it is not normally acceptable to ignore corrupt CD-ROM data. The disc may also include a second session containing an encrypted version of the data payload PD, where each sector is encrypted using a different key which is derived from a sector address by an algorithm and requires a special player program which performs the decryption. A supervisory program prevents circumvention of the copy protection.

Title: Sealing rings
Inventor: ALLISON ROBERT S
IPC: B29C65/02
Filed: 1985-08-29
Granted: 1988-03-16
Abstract: A tubular ring is formed from a suitable rubber like material. A circumferential slit 18 is formed on the periphery of the ring which communicates with the bore in the ring. Then the sides of the slit are spread apart far enough so a garter spring 22 can be inserted through the slit into the bore of the ring. The garter spring 22 is sized so it is movably mounted in the bore of the ring so it can exert the required compressive force on the finished seal. The sides of the slit are then cemented together and a fiberglass cloth 24 is cemented to the inner surface 28 of the ring to form a work contacting surface on the seal. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1996-11-20
Abstract: An intergrated circuit assembly includes a silicon thin film circuit bonded to a substrate of a material selected to provide the assembly with an effective thermal expansion characteristic that approximately matches hat of another device, such as HgCdTe detector. The assembly, when bump bonded with the device, is resistant to failure when subjected to thermal cycling. A first method for manufacturing the assembly includes the steps of forming a desired circuit in a thin layer (12) of silicon on a silicon substrate of a bonded silicon wafer. The thin silicon layer including the circuit is is then bonded to the selected substrate material (24). Thereafter the silicon substrate is removed and the resulting assembly may be mated to the device (36). A second method employs a two stage transfer technique wherein the processed thin silicon layer is bonded to a first, temporary substrate; the silicon substrate is removed; a second, permanent substrate is attached; and the first substrate is removed. The second substrate is comprised of a material selected for providing the assembly with a coefficient of thermal expansion that is matched to the material of the device. <IMAGE>
