Patent DE-602004025753-D1 (DE)
Inventor: PURCOCKS DALE MCPHEE
IPC: H01H13/85
Filed: 2004-12-06
Abstract: A switch comprising a generally tubular housing (10) of a rigid plastics material. A plurality of discrete tabs (12) are circumferentially disposed, in side-by-side relation, around an end of the housing (10). The housing (10) defines a recess (16) for receiving an elastomeric dome member (24) having an annular rib (26) at its base, and the recess (16) has an annular groove (20) with a relatively sharp edge (22) for receiving the annular rib (26) of the dome member (24). When the dome member (24) is correctly inserted within the recess (16), a downward force is provided on the tabs (12), causing them to 'fold' down over the base of the dome member (24), such that they are substantially at right-angles to the longitudinal sidewall of the housing (10), and substantially flush with the edge portion (29) thereof. Optionally, heat may also be applied to the tabs (12), causing them to at least partially soften and melt together, to form a single, substantially integral, flange completely covering the annular rib (26) at the base of the dome member (24), so as to create a fluid-tight seal between the housing (10) and the dome member (24). The end of the housing (10) apposite to that having the tabs (12) is provided with an aperture (30) with which the stem (32) of a keycap 34 is slidably engaged. The recess (16) for receiving the dome member (24) is shaped and configured so as to provide sufficient clearance such that the dome member (24) does not contact the inner wall of the housing (10) when it is deformed in use.

Abstract: A walk behind rotary trowel (10) is configured to be "dynamically balanced" so as to minimize the forces/torque that the operator must endure to control and guide the trowel. Characteristics that are accounted for by this design include, but are not limited to, friction, engine torque, machine center of gravity, and guide handle position. As a result, dynamic balancing and consequent force/torque reduction were found to result when the machine's center of gravity was shifted substantially relative to a typical machine's center of gravity. Dynamic balancing can be achieved most practically by reversing the orientation of the engine (16) relative to the guide handle assembly when compared to traditional walk behind rotary trowels and shifting the engine (16) as far as practical to the right. This shifting has been found to reduce the operational forces and torque the operator must endure by at least 50% when compared to traditional machines. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging system (1) comprising a plurality of RF coils (4) forming a multi-coil array and furthermore to a magnetic resonance imaging method for such a system. In order to provide an MR imaging system and method in which a desired excitation pattern is achieved in a simple way, it is suggested to utilize an analytical procedure how to combine the single coil elements to obtain the most homogeneous B1 excitation possible with a given coil array. In other words, the homogeneity of the B1 field is improved in a very simple way. The sensitivity of each RF coil (4) of the coil array is scaled or weighted by a complex factor, i.e. phase and amplitude of each coil drive signal is adjusted accordingly. These complex factors are determined analytically utilizing the sensitivities S(8) of the coil elements (4) and the desired excitation pattern P (IO, 11). The invention allows an optimized control of the field distribution (RF shimming) for arbitrary RF coil arrays. With the invention a fast and easy independent phase and amplitude control of the coil elements (4) is provided for reducing body-induced RF non-uniformities, which appear in high field MR systems.
