IPC: D21F1/30
Filed: 2000-09-29
Abstract: A polymer matrix (38) is made by casting. Prefabricated studs or pegs are introduced during casting, into the setting material (38). Preferred features: The polymer matrix (38) is produced on a cylinder (16), where the studs or pegs (projections) are introduced. At the same time a reinforcement is added with longitudinal and circumferential fibers. The projections are initially fastened to a conveying band (34), both being introduced into the setting matrix. The matrix is produced on a cylinder and the conveying band is wound up with it during the casting process. The conveying band with the projections is mechanically-interlocked or chemical cross linking is induced by a bonding agent, to achieve anchoring into the polymer matrix. The conveying band is a fabric or fleece material. The carrier band used, is provided with peripheral fibers at the same time. The projections are introduced in an outer layer of the setting polymer. During embedding they are given an additional over-casting of polymer.

Abstract: Method of sorting data for data processing systems including pulse data from a wide frequency range, such as pulse radar systems, involves pre-sorting of the data and reduction of the redundant data so that the subsequent computer expense can be reduced. The sorting method for data sorting involves initially establishing a cell control block-data field for forming a histogram, in which a number of cell control blocks are provided, and in which each cell control block corresponds to a corresponding cell classified as a core cell or non-core cell. Each cell control block has a first logic word for evidence for start of a data output chain, when the corresponding cell is used and is a core-cell. Each cell-control block has a second logic word giving evidence for an associated core-cell, when the corresponding cell is used and is a non-core cell. The input data is received depending on at least one parameter for forming a number of event description blocks. The input data of the event description blocks is outputted to an output data field, depending on the first and second logic words.

differential between the upper surface (20) and the lower surface (50) of the

Abstract: A process for producing a saccharide carboxylic
acid or a salt thereof is characterised in that a
microorganism belonging to the genus
 Pseudogluconobacter  and capable of oxidizing a
hydroxymethyl group and/or hemiacetal hydroxyl-associated
carbon atom to a carboxyl group, or an
artefact derived from the microorganism, is permitted
to act on a hydroxymethyl and/or hemiacetal hydroxyl-containing
saccharide or saccharide derivative to
produce and accumulate the corresponding carboxylic
acid, and the carboxylic acid so accumulated is
harvested; novel saccharide carboxylic acids
produced by the above production method, and by the
process, from a broad range of saccharides, saccharic
acids having carboxyl groups derived from hydroxymethyl
and/or hemiacetal OH groups can be produced with high
selectivity and in good yield; the resultant saccharide
acids are resistant to enzymatic degradation and have
improved water solubility, among other characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention is a stent delivery catheter system for placing a
stent within a stenosis in a vessel of a human body without the need for either
pre-dilatation of the stenosis or post-dilatation of the stent. The primary stenting
delivery catheter system utilizes the combination of low profile (i.e., a small outer
diameter) with a continuous, smooth and lubricious outer surface extending
backward from a tapered distal tip. This design makes it possible for the stent
delivery catheter to be pushed through even very tight stenoses without
requiring pre-dilatation. 
     Two versions of the primary stent delivery system are envisioned. The
first version is a sheathed primary stenting system with a two-part sheath having
a thick-walled proximal section and an ultra-thin distal section that is shrunk
down to secure it to the catheter's distal tip. This embodiment differs from the
prior art Fischell et al. device that does not shrink its membrane sheath down
over the stent and over the balloon catheter's distal tip.

Abstract: A temperature control system is described that is suitable for use in a contact printer
that is adapted for printing onto a moving substrate. A heater such as a high wattage
resistor is attached to a metal plate extending from a print head assembly in a contact
printer. A heater control unit (87) is arranged to control the heater (82) on the basis of
the output of a thermistor (83) in the print head assembly together with a pre-specified
voltage level (84). Using the heater, the temperature around the print head and of foil
in the printer is increased relative to the room temperature and this improves print
quality and efficiency in cold environments such as cold rooms where food is packed.
The tendency of foil in the printer to break and crease in cold environments is also
reduced.

Abstract: A method for forming a stepped shallow trench isolation is described. A pad
oxide layer is deposited on the surface of a semiconductor substrate. A first nitride
layer is deposited overlying the pad oxide layer. The first nitride layer is etched
through where it is not covered by a mask to provide an opening to the pad oxide
layer. A first trench is etched through the pad oxide layer within the opening and
into the semiconductor substrate. A second nitride layer is deposited overlying the
first nitride layer and filling the first trench. Simultaneously, the second nitride
layer is anisotropically etched to form nitride spacers on the sidewalls of the first
trench and the semiconductor substrate is etched into where it is not covered by
the spacers to form a second trench. Ions are implanted into the semiconductor
substrate underlying the second trench. The first and second trenches are filled
with an oxide layer. Thereafter, the first nitride and pad oxide layers are removed
completing the formation of shallow trench isolation in the fabrication of an
integrated circuit device. This nitride spacer STI architecture prevents STI corner
oxide recess and enables borderless contact formation. This unigue process
reduces junction leakage and also reduces contact leakage.

compares the counted clock cycles (EEC) with a prestored reference-value (EEC 0 ) in
order to provide a deviation value (RJ) as a measure for the instantaneous quality of the
digital signal (S). This deviation value (RJ) is then fed to a rework unit that outputs a
