Abstract: A mangle for circular knitted fabric has a circular spreader is combined with several mangling stations circularly arranged around the spreader for the removal of treatment liquor from tubular fabrics. In order to protect the fabric against excessive squeezing, an upper roller head is entirely avoided by confining the circular spreader in the horizontal direction exclusively by the mangling stations. The vertical support of the spreader is provided fully by the mangling stations if the mangling rollers are mounted in positions slanting to the vertical. If the mangling rollers are not mounted in slanted positions it is preferred that a lower roller head operated by a lifting mechanism assists the mangling rollers in supporting the spreader (8) vertically. In both instances an upper roller head becomes unnecessary.

Inventor: WALSH PETER J
IPC: H04B10/2581
Filed: 1997-07-21
Abstract: An optical power meter for a fiber optic link includes a
photodetector (92) that generates a current proportional to the
energy of the light transmission in the optical fiber, a
current-to-voltage converter (100,104) that converts the
current to a proportional voltage, and a voltage-to-frequency
converter (50) that converts the voltage to a digital pulse
train that increments a counter. A microprocessor
periodically reads the average power value from the counter and
converts it to a power value in dBm which is then stored on a
mass storage device and displayed on a display which shows
the power level over time so that losses due to intrinsic and
extrinsic loss factors can be easily identified. Software in the
power meter allows the user to input a power fluctuation range.
If the measured power falls outside of the range, the power
meter sets off a warning signal.

IPC: H01L21/301
Filed: 1997-09-04
Abstract: An energy relieving, redundant crack stop and the method of
producing the same is disclosed. The redundant pattern allows the crack
propagating energy that is not absorbed by the first ring of
metallization to be absorbed by a second area of metallization and also
provides a greater surface area over which the crack producing energy
may be spread. The redundant crack stop is produced during the
metallization process along with the rest of the wiring of the chip
surface and, therefore, no additional production steps are necessary to
form the structure.

Abstract: An improved optical light pipe for side-lit uses is formed from a
core/cladding combination, optionally with a transparent jacket, where the core
is preferably a cured acrylic polymer and the cladding is preferably a
fluorocarbon polymer containing a very low level of fine particles which scatter
the light uniformly along the length of the piping. Further light enhancement
can be obtained with low levels of glass fibers or glass microspheres also present
in the cladding. Chopped glass fibers alone at low levels in the cladding are
useful for back-lit applications. The light pipe so formed is useful in signs,
underwater outlines, corridor lighting in theaters, and similar uses.

Abstract: The data of the partial images of an original
output from an original input scanning device is
converted by an image reducing section into reduced
images of data in accordance with the size of
duplication. Each reduced image of data is stored in a
data storage. A pattern matching section compares
adjoining reduced partial images of data as to the
overlapping image data, to check the congruency
therebetween. Based on this judgement result, an address
setting section generates a joining position address
corresponding to the joining position in each storage
area. A data output control section loads the adjoining
reduced partial images of data stored in respective
storage areas, in a sequentially, joinable manner, so
that an image forming section forms a duplicated image
of the original on a predetermined recording medium in
accordance with the reduced image data.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for controlling ink in a continuous ink jet
printer (16) in which a continuous stream of ink is emitted from a nozzle, wherein an
ink stream generator establishes a continuous flow of ink in a stream such that the
stream breaks up into a plurality of droplets at a position spaced from the ink
stream generator. A stream deflector (80) includes a body having a surface positioned
adjacent to the stream (60) between the ink stream generator and the position whereat
the stream breaks up into droplets (66,67) such that the stream contacts the surface and is
deflected at least in part due to a tendency of liquid to contact a surface in
proportion to liquid-solid free energy. The stream may be deflected substantially
totally due to a tendency of liquid to contact a surface in proportion to liquid-solid
free energy, or may be deflected partially due to a tendency of liquid to contact a
surface in proportion to liquid-solid free energy and partially due to a reactive
force on the stream exerted by the surface as a result of collision of the stream
with the surface.

Abstract: A recording medium transfer mechanism in which a
transfer roller is press-contacted against a travel portion
of a pushing-out lever. When a disk is inserted, the
transfer roller rotates counterclockwise, and travels on the
travel portion of the pushing-out lever, so that a transfer
means swings towards an X1 side to position Y. On the other
hand, when the disk is removed, the transfer roller rotates
clockwise, causing the transfer means to swing towards an X2
side, approach a recording medium driving portion, and swing
to position X, thereby ensuring clamping of the disk. In
other words, the transfer means can approach or move away
from the disk in accordance with the direction of rotation
of the transfer roller, thereby eliminating the need for a
special member. Therefore, the number of component parts
required is reduced, and space, for such a special member,
is not required.

Abstract: Antenna structures (20;100;120) are provided which facilitate
the simultaneous radiation of multiple antenna beams
(82,83). The structures include photonic manifolds (30,32)
that define equal-length optical paths (48) and other optical
paths (59) whose lengths progressively change by a selected
length (ΔL). The manifolds conduct signal pairs (s s ,s r ) to radiative
modules (28). Each signal pair includes a frequency-swept
scanning signal (s s ) and a reference signal (s r ) whose
frequency is a selected one of the sum and the difference of
the frequencies of the scanning signal (s s ) and a respective
operating signal (s 0 ). Subsequently, the scanning signals are
mixed (55) with the reference signals (s r ) and filtered to recover
phase-shifted versions of each respective operating signal
(s 0 ). The phase-shifted versions are radiated to form multiple
radiated beams (82,83) wherein each beam is scanned by
changing the frequency of its respective scanning signal (s s ).
The frequency of the scanning signals (s s ) is selected to avoid
generation of spurious radiated signals.
